Chapter 385: White Moonlight
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He had almost made a mistake.
This fox demon only had a tail so Jiang Li’s first impression was that it was an
ordinary fox demon.
Fortunately, he was cautious in the end. He captured the other party’s aura and
let the Nine-Tailed Fox Race in the coffin identify him.
They confimed that although this aura was a little mixed and impure, it was
definitely their Nine-Tailed Fox Race.
Moreover, its tail was even above four. It was very powerful.
The Nine-Tailed Fox Race that had always lived in Empress Daji’s tomb were
able to preserve 10 to 20 fox demons of the thinnest bloodline through the final
resort of the last Human Emperor.
The lifespan of the Nine-Tailed Fox Race was very long, far longer than
ordinary wild beasts. They could slowly reproduce inside and maintain their
bloodline purity.
However, Tu Mountain’s branch could actually retain their bloodline after
experiencing the long Cultivationless Age and reach this stage. It was indeed
not easy.
Jiang Li took a closer look and noticed that the fox demon’s strongest attack
should be that tail, but it had never used it.
When the fox tail lashed out a few times, one could see that the root of the tail
was still stained with blood.
This was also the reason why the bald wolf demon had smelled blood on her.
Before coming here, there was only one tail left.
At that time, there were no traces of battle on her body. In other words, it was
very likely that she had cut off the additional tails?
However, what was the point of crippling her own strength before entering
this tiger’s den?
Jiang Li felt a little strange when he saw the fox demon that was surrounded by
the five demons and was barely holding on. However, right at this moment,
Yan Hong sent him a message.
Someone was stirring up trouble at the Prosperous Jiang Hong Inn.
The Prosperous Jlang Hong Inn did not offend anyone in the Ten Directions
Region. It did not look like a rich place, yet it could actually be robbed?
Jiang Li had also thought of taking advantage of the chaos.
However, looking at the current situation, the five demons were simply at ease.
Now, if anyone dared to cause trouble, they could immediately react.
There was basically no opportunity to take advantage of it.
Moreover, if he wanted to take advantage of the chaos, he should go to the
residences of these five guys. Why did he come to an inn for no reason?
The coffin lid slid open, and a tree root emerged from the palm-sized coffin.
After falling to the ground, it directly entered like a fish swimming in water.
Jiang Li’s second Nine Nether Wood was the strongest clone he had subdued
since he started cultivating. Its foundation and strength had already reached
the peak of the Soul Formation realm. Any further and it would become a
Demon King
Although it had been heavily injured and its strength had fallen greatly, the
foundation in its soul was still there. Jiang Li had used the Bodhisattva Heart
Sutra with his Golden Core cultivation, so it was not so easy to completely
devour its shattered soul.
At the very least, up until now, the parallel mind had only absorbed less than
half of the soul fragments.
However, other than this, Jiang Li’s Nine Nether clone had already successfully
grown a second statue with the help of the Immortal Peach Fruit.
Just as he thought, it was an Asura who looked very similar to Jiang Li.
The current Nine Nether clone was already equivalent to a human Soul
Formation cultivator. No matter where he went, he could hold his own.
When something happened, he got the Nine Nether clone to run back to the inn
to check.
Jiang Li flipped his hand and grabbed a finger bone that was warm like jade.
After obtaining the Human Emperor’s inheritance of King Zhou, he could be
considered to have some relations.h.i.+p with Tu Mountain.
It was one thing if he did not meet them, but since he had encountered the Tu
Mountain Fox Race that was in trouble, he should partic.i.p.ate in this farce. Not long after, the fox demon in the center of the battle was about to collapse.
She attacked the pig demon desperately, leaving hundreds of claw marks on
the thick-skinned white pig.
However, with her current strength after she severed her tail, it was very
difficult for her to stand a chance against these five demons in a one-on-one
battle.
Not to mention five against one.
To the white pig, those hundreds of claw marks were only superficial injuries.
On the contrary, her body suffered several heavy blows, and her condition
worsened.
Presumably, it would not be long before she was forcefully taken down by
these few animals and subdued physically.
Just as she could not persist and could not even drag someone down with her, a
throbbing sensation from the bloodline suddenly appeared in the fox demon’s
mind.
The intimacy and shock that came from the source of his bloodline.
It made her forget that she was fighting. Her eyes stared ina certain direction
in the crowd, trying to find the person who made her feel so.
Just sensing this bit of aura made the spiritual qi in her body surge. The
bloodline that had originally become impure after tens of thousands of years of
crossbreeding began to boil at this moment and slowly became purer.
This feeling shocked the fox demon who originally had six tails.
Recovering the Tu Mountain Nine-Tailed Bloodline was the wish of their race
for many years. Now, just an aura had reached this effect.
If she could find the source of the aura, there was a chance that Tu Mountain
would rise up.
Then, because of this distraction, she was grabbed by the ox demon among the
Five Banishment Daoists and ruthlessly flung to the ground.
Her seemingly weak body created a huge hole in the ground, and she was
heavily injured again.
The Five Banishment Daoists took out a golden rope at the same time and
projected it down, intending to restrain this fox demon.
However, at the next moment, a white light shot into the sky from the huge
hole filled with dust.
A white light and the bright moon in the sky reflected each other with an
increasingly cold light. In an instant, all the creatures who saw the white light
fell into a beautiful illusion.
Even the Five Banishment Daoists were no exception.
This was the fox demon’s illusion technique, White Moonlight!
After using an illusion technique to temporarily freeze the surrounding
demons, Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya darted out of the huge hole. She reached out and
grabbed the pig demon, pulling out a pearl.
This was the betrothal gift that Five Banishment City had originally agreed to
give her, but it was a pity that these five fellows did not plan to give it to her
directly. It was also because they had gone too far that the fox demon was
forced to attack directly.
Previously, she had attacked in a bid to obtain this pearl first. Presumably, this
thing should have soame additional meaning to her.
Now that she had the pearl, the fox demon should have fled immediately.
However, she stopped in the air and stared at the motionless demons, still
trying to find the person who emitted the power of the same bloodline.
She indeed knew this fox demon illusion technique, but even at her peak, the
strength she could unleash was less than 10% of this time.
It could only confuse experts of the same level for an instant.
Unlike now, when it erupted and froze the thousands of demons in the
surroundings, including ten greater demons.
The only reason why it had such an effect was because of the person or thing
that had responded to her just now.
Although she had not directly touched it and it had greatly strengthened her
illusion technique to unleash that power,
that person definitely had a deep relations.h.i.+p with the Tu Mountain and the
Nine-Tailed Race.
If she could find the other party or obtain that thing related to her bloodline,
she might be able to make Tu Mountain stand out in the world again.
Sweeping her gaze across the demons, she really discovered the person she
was looking for.
At this moment, they were enveloped by the illusion technique. Everyone was
immersed in the white moonlight illusion with happy expressions.
However, one of them opened his eyes and looked at her with interest.
When the two sides looked at each other, the Tu Mountain Fox Demon
immediately knew that this person was helping her just now.
With a flash, this beautiful fox demon rushed to Jiang Li’s side and stuffed the
pearl she had just obtained into his hand.
Thank you for your help, Fellow Daoist. My name is Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya.
Help me send this thing back to Tu Mountain. The Fox Race will definitely
repay you!
After taking another deep look at Jiang Li, before he could reply, Tu Mountain’s
Wu Ya flashed towards the distance.
It was not good to stay here for long. Although she had come here with the
determination to die, it was naturally better to survive.
After White Moonlight was used, it had only taken a few breaths for Tu
Mountain’s Wu Ya to leave.
However, at this moment, the eyelids of the Five Banishment Daoists, who
were still floating on the spot, began to tremble slightly.
This meant that they were about to break free from the illusion.
Although these five guys committed all kinds of crimes, for some reason, they
cultivated an orthodox cultivation method of thhe Dao Sect. Their mental
resistance was much stronger than other Demon Kings.
Under the enhancement of the finger bone, this fox demon’s illusion technique
was indeed very powerful, but it was not to the extent of being able to toy with
the enemy.
At this moment, as long as they were attacked, they would immediately wake
up.
The demons had powerful defense and tenacious vitality. With Wu Ya’s
methods, she could not kill any of them in one strike.
That was why she gave up this good opportunity and fled into the distance.
Although she could not do it, Jiang Li was quite confident in succeeding.
He had wanted to take advantage of it previously, but now was the perfect
opportunity.
Time was tight, and there was no time to hesitate or waste.
His figure leaped out of the group of demons and rushed forward. A blood-red
lotus platform had appeared in his hand at some point in time.
With a shalke of his hand, the Blood Lotus Platform swelled up with the wind
and enveloped the dog demon among the Five Banishment Daoists.
He only had one chance to launch a sneak attack. This time, if he could make
the Five Banishment Daoists lose a member, it would greatly reduce the threat
of Five Banishment City.
Jiang Li’s target was this dog demon.
Although this dog demon was not the strongest among the Five Banishment
Daoists, its sense of smell was really powerful. Since he planned to help the Tu
Mountain Fox Demon, he might as well help more.
After taking in this yellow dog, without its nose, the escaping Tu Mountain’s
Wu Ya had a higher chance of survival
The lotus platform enlarged in the air. Just as it was about to envelop the
yellow dog, an instinctive sense of danger woke the dog from the illusion.
Two thick arms reached up and actually grabbed the edge of thhe lotus platform
petal, preventing it from pressing down.
“How dare you! Who are you!”
The dog demon roared boldly and was about to counterattack Jiang Li, but the
grade of the Blood Lotus Platform was terrifying. He did not have the bull
demon’s strength, so he was unable to push it away for a time.
In the next moment, another chain flew over and wrapped around the yellow
dog’s waist.
From the bottom up, there was a coffin with the bottom wrapped upwards.
Karma Cleansing Lotus, Dragon Imprisoning Lock, and Yin Burial Coffin.
Although these three were not purely offensive artifacts, they were even more
terrifying
If one was. .h.i.t by any of these three artifacts, those below the Earth Immortal
realm would be helpless.
Could the yellow dog block the first one, avoid the second, and escape the
third?
The large demon yellow dog that had just woken up from the illusion realm
and was ambushed was directly placed into the coffin by Jiang Li
Then, the coffin quickly shrunk, turning into a black light that landed in Jiang
Li’s arms.
Due to the dog demon’s roar just now, the other demons were about to break
free from the illusion technique.
Jiang Li landed at the fastest speed and directly used the Nine Nether escape
technique to enter the ground.
Then, he converged all his aura and hid underground, not moving at all. He
held the Ground Control Flag in his hand. Once he was discovered by these
demons, he would escape with all his might.
d.a.m.n it! That fox escaped!
The other four demons among the five demons woke up almost at the same
time.
Looking left and right, they were fl.u.s.tered and exasperated.
“Where’s the dog? Could it be that he woke up and chased after that woman?
They discovered that the dog deamon was not around and were not worried.
How could anyone let a big demon do anything at this moment?
What a lecherous dog. Pig, find the whereabouts of that woman!
“Leave it to me.”
Ignoring the missing dog, the big white pig among the four demons rolled its
huge pig nose and began to suck the surrounding air like a bellows.
There was a strange aura?
The pig demon looked at the place where the yellow dog had vanished earlier.
He smelled the energy aura that Jiang Li had emitted when he attacked earlier.
If he searched deeper, he might be able to find Jiang Li underground.
However, at this moment, their minds were all on Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya.
Immediately, they ignored this trivial matter and focused on finding the fox
demon’s aura.
Although a pig’s sense of smell was slightly inferior to a dog, it was definitely
not much different. This pig’s nose could easily pierce a mountain and had the
miraculous ability to track people from thousands of miles away.
Soon, from the countless wisps of chaotic aura, they locked onto the direction
in which the fox demon fled.
“She’s over there. She hasn’t run for long!”
The remaining four demons did not plan to leave one here to guard the house.
They directly rode the demon wind and flew out.
The scattered demon wind woke up the other demons who had fallen into the
illusion
These demons were not good people.
“Hahaha, Madam Five Banishment actually fled the marriage!”
“Little ones, let’s go after her too. She’s already an arrow at the end of its flight.
If we catch up, we might be able to taste the flavor of the Madam Five
Banishment first!”
Pursuing prey was an instinct engraved in the souls of demons. When
something ran in front, they would instinctively pursue it. Furthermore, the
one running in front was a peerless fox demon, stimulating the beast blood of
these demons.
Immediately, the demon wind swept out, and countless demons rose into the
sky, chasing after the fox demon.
Only after the demons flew far away did Jiang Li crawl out from the ground.
A few small demons that were cleaning the ruins in the surroundings saw him,
and they were instantly killed by Jiang Li before they could react.
He took out the thing that Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya had given him.
It was a spiritual pearl with a high concentration of spiritual qi and a white fox
demon fur.
He did not know the exact use of that spiritual pearl.
However, the white fox demon fur gently floated in one direction without
wind.
This was guiding him somewhere.
The fox demon, Wu Ya, wanted him to send the pearl to Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya.
Clearly, this hair was pointing in the direction of the mountain.
