Su Yu'er has been following the demonic energy to track down the hidden fox demon.
Her talent makes her more sensitive than other members of her clan.
As a result, as she gradually approaches the source of the aura, she becomes more and more displeased, her eyebrows furrowing.
Cultivation can be broadly divided into two categories. One is to absorb the essence of the sun and moon, the qi of heaven and earth, and follow the path of human cultivation. Beasts who cultivate in this way will transform into monsters and be called "Pangmen Immortals" or "Chumaxian". The other category is to gather and supplement, which can involve directly consuming humans or devouring the essence of living beings through other means.
The cultivation of the latter type of monsters is not as profound, and they emit a strong demonic energy.
Such fox spirits always make her feel annoyed, and the scent of these seductive foxes is simply unbearable.
The three Qingqiu fox women followed the trail to a desolate mountain in the northeast direction, gradually slowing down their pace. They were cautious and searched for a water curtain-like illusion. Most foxes are skilled in enchantment techniques, and among them, illusion techniques can create illusions that make people unable to see or hear.
They knew that they had found the location of the wicked fox demon.
Su Yu'er held a simple and ancient bronze short sword in her hand, placed her hand on her chest, took a deep breath, and then cautiously stepped into this place.
The interior was completely different from the outside. It turned out to be an ancient pavilion. In front of it were extremely tall trees with various branches, as if they had returned to the ancient mountains and forests in an instant. There was no sound on the road, only the hoarse and enchanting humming sound faintly came.
Su Yan'er was a little scared, while Hu Mei was eager to try, her bright brown eyes staring at the figure in front of the pavilion.
The figure had her back facing them, and it could be seen that she had a plump figure.
She was grooming herself in front of the mirror.
She lightly hummed an ancient tune.
It seemed that she had sensed the unexpected guests early on. The woman's movements paused, and then she gently turned her head.
With a delicate oval face, bright and spirited eyes, and a mouth with a hint of a smile.
If only these were mentioned, then she should be an outstanding beauty.
But her fair face was covered with brownish-yellow fur.
It looked horrifying and eerie, as if a fox's face had been sewn onto a human's head. Su Yu'er and the other two were shocked, but the woman seemed amused and laughed, "What are you afraid of? After pretending to be human for so long, are you even afraid of foxes?"
"This is not a fox clan."
Su Yu'er suppressed the feeling of horror in her heart, and with a hint of embarrassment and anger, she said, "You... your cultivation is not enough, and you went to ask people for a seal, and not just one person, do you know the consequences?"
The strange fox woman looked surprised, then smiled and replied, "Of course I know."
"Borrowing some of the human world's luck to help me transform, isn't it great?"
Su Yu'er's eyes first showed astonishment, then turned cold.
As a shortcut passed down among the monsters in the mountains and forests, asking for a seal was a clever method.
If one were to cultivate diligently, it was possible to never transform into a human form and remain in the form of a beast until death.
But humans were special, occupying the mainstream of the human world. Each person had their own luck, so monsters would ask a passerby for a seal. In a moment of silence, they would stop someone and ask if they looked like a human. If the answer was yes, it meant that the passerby's luck would be consumed to help the monster transform into a human form and ascend to immortality. But if the answer was no, it would ruin the monster's cultivation for a hundred years, and the monster would be furious and would chase after them.
However, even if they helped the monster transform, the rewards they received were not necessarily good.
Some monster immortals felt guilty and compensated for the luck consumed by humans.
And some monsters targeted the remaining luck and yang energy, refusing to leave until they had drained them completely.
The fox woman in front of them had various types of human luck mixed together, obviously having harmed many people, and she blamed all these misdeeds on the fox demon clan. Su Yu'er coldly said, "You are willfully doing evil for your own selfish desires, and you are stubbornly unrepentant."
The fox woman on the other side looked surprised, then burst into laughter:
"Selfish desires?!"
"What do you monsters born from famous families know?"
The fox woman stood up and jumped down, her voice becoming sharp and mocking, "You were born in Qingqiu, the auspicious omen of the ancient country of Tushan, the wife clan of Emperor Yu and King Zhou. The luck of two generations of emperors is with you. You don't need to ask for a seal carefully, you can easily get rid of your beast form and transform into a human form after cultivating for a hundred years. What about us?!"
"We cultivate diligently outside, enduring wind and rain, eating wind and drinking dew, but still cannot get rid of our beast form."
"Do you have the qualifications to criticize me?"
"I just want to achieve success in cultivation and become a monster immortal. I don't care what means I use."
"I don't want to be a wild beast that will be hunted down at any time. I originally thought I would attract a few Taoists, but I didn't expect to bring you Qingqiu fox clan. Compared to Taoists, the spiritual energy in your bodies is more suitable for me. By devouring your inner cores, I can completely transform today."
When the truth is revealed, the fox woman no longer pretends and attacks.
Su Yu'er's face changed slightly, and she held the bronze dagger in her hand, her footsteps light and calm, blocking the fox woman's claws one by one. Su Yan'er and Hu Mei assisted from the side, intercepting the aggressive attacks of the ferocious fox woman. Although the latter had not fully demonstrated her strength, her movements were indeed agile and swift.
Su Yu'er and the others were not skilled in this type of battle, and for a while, they were unable to subdue her.
Time slowly passed.
Su Yu'er used a spell to force the strange fox woman back.
But suddenly, she realized that Su Yan'er and Hu Mei were no longer helping to restrain her. She swept her gaze to the side and saw that both of her companions had pale faces. She was puzzled, but suddenly her body swayed, and her limbs felt weak. Her face changed abruptly:
"You poisoned us?!"The fox woman smiled and said, "It's just burning incense. I obtained it by killing a two-meter-long black iron centipede outside the pass. Even the demon race couldn't resist it. He even thought he could stay with me forever. After I got him drunk, I removed his poison gland and made seven incense sticks."
"So, you little ones are still too inexperienced."
Without the restraint of Su Yan'er and Hu Mei, the fox woman's movements became more agile and fierce. She was not proficient in spells and magical powers, but she relied on great speed and strength to suppress her opponents. Compared to the Qingqiu clan with a complete inheritance, she was more like a monster than a spirit.
With a clang, Su Yu'er's dagger blocked the fox woman's attack.
Suddenly, the pressure from the dagger increased.
The fox woman had intentionally hidden half of her strength before.
Su Yu'er was completely caught off guard by this unexpected change. The faint light around her began to violently shake. The fox woman's fair palm turned into sharp claws as she pressed down on the girl's shoulder. She suddenly lowered her head and bit her neck, but then stopped abruptly, groaning and flying backwards, looking at Su Yu'er in confusion.
There was a mark resembling cinnabar on her forehead, and she couldn't get close to her at all.
The shattered aura around the girl transformed into an illusory nine-tailed fox.
The fox woman stared at the disheveled Su Yu'er and said:
"Nine-tailed celestial fox..."
"No, you don't have a thousand years of cultivation. You are not a normal nine-tailed fox."
Su Yu'er gasped heavily, her face pale, but she still said with a stern expression:
"Whether you are a nine-tailed fox or not, you are no match for me."
The fox woman stared at the defiant girl for a while, then suddenly laughed, "I see now. So it's you. The legend is true. You have no way to use this power. Unfortunately, although I can't devour the inner core of a nine-tailed fox, the direct descendants of the Su and Hu families in the Qingqiu fox clan are enough."
She rushed towards Su Yu'er, then changed direction in mid-air, revealing a strong fluctuation of magical power.
She transformed into a black shadow and attacked Hu Mei.
Su Yu'er widened her eyes, and the usually confident eyes almost lost their luster. Hu Mei also shrank back in fear. They had no experience in fighting and were considered young in the Qingqiu fox clan. They were careless and fell victim to the demonic poison. Even without that, this monster had at least three hundred years of cultivation, much more experienced than these young fox spirits.
Suddenly, it seemed like a thunderclap exploded on the ground.
The fox woman's fur stood on end.
Stepping on nothingness, she suddenly changed direction.
A small flame exploded on a branch on one side, then the sturdy branch was shattered and fell down. The fox woman's gaze became fierce, but she continued to attack, avoiding the thunderous sounds. Her hands turned into sharp claws, but this time they were blocked by a broadsword.
The sword trembled and shook, ready to cut off all ten fingers of the fox woman.
The fox woman, always cautious and suspicious, didn't dare to confront it head-on. She bounced off the void and landed behind.
She looked at the man who appeared in front of her with a puzzled and uncertain expression.
Her illusion couldn't confuse the Qingqiu fox, but she couldn't even deceive an ordinary person?
Su Yu'er was stunned for a moment, then saw Wei Yuan, who should have been waiting at the hospital. He turned his sword with his right hand, the blade of the Han sword against the ground, and smiled ambiguously, "Is this what you call taking a break?"
She couldn't say anything, feeling guilty and apologetic.
Wei Yuan sighed, not blaming the once proud girl. He just raised the plastic bag in his hand and said casually, "You ran so far away, but your milk tea made it easy for me to find you."
"Do you want lemonade? Here."
Wei Yuan threw the lemonade he bought along the way, and also threw the milk tea to Su Yan'er.
Finally, he looked at Hu Mei, who had closed her eyes tightly. This once spirited girl seemed to be scared, but most likely she was pretending. Wei Yuan saw her secretly open her eyes and took out the last vanilla-flavored milk tea, placing it directly on top of Hu Mei's head.
The girl instinctively shrunk her neck.
The fox ears on her soft hair trembled, changing from their previously spirited and upright position to a frightened little beast.
Wei Yuan said, "It's your vanilla flavor."
We are "pawread.co𝑚", find us on google.
"Hold it."
"Ah? Oh, thank you, thank you."
Hu Mei held the milk tea on top of her head with her hand, her brown eyes secretly looking up, carefully observing Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan's peripheral vision watched the strange fox woman in the distance. She was suspicious and cautious, and had been watching him all along. She hadn't sensed any particularly powerful aura from him, so she retracted her claws and the yellow fur on her face, transforming into a charming woman. She smiled and asked:
"I wonder how I should address this young man?"
Then she asked again, "Do I look like a human to you?"
What a troublesome person.
Wei Yuan, with a slightly polite smile, nodded, then said very politely and seriously:
"I think you look like an idiot."
