After my mind cleared up, I lifted my eyes to look around. I didn't dare to be careless. However, I couldn't find the old man. He seemed to have left.
I felt strange. The evil energy had almost reached my face, but why hadn't it hit me?
Moreover, he hadn't killed the fox yet. Why did he do that?
Did an expert come to help me?
After thinking about it, it was possible.
However, I was afraid that only the evil spirit could save me in such a short time. He must have known that Bi 'an and I were going to be together for half a year. That was why he came to find me.
When he saw that I was facing a strong enemy, he came to save me when I was on the verge of death.
The old man knew that he couldn't defeat the evil spirit, so he hurriedly ran away. The evil spirit chased after him. That was how the two of them disappeared.
In this way, it was indeed reasonable.
Now that I had escaped from death, I exhaled in relief. I propped myself up and slowly walked toward the fox girl.
After a while, I came to her and asked, "How are your wounds?"
She didn't answer me immediately. After a while, she said, "Fox … Fox King's … power."
Her eyes were bright, and she looked a little surprised.
However, I didn't understand what she meant. I asked, "What is this Fox King's power? Is it the reason why she came to Shennongjia?"
After listening to me, the fox girl shook her head. She was a little emotional, and her words were incoherent. I didn't understand what she meant.
Seeing that I didn't understand, she became more anxious. After a while, she calmed down and finished speaking.
According to her, she thought that we would all die here today. However, when she was desperate, the Fox King's power suddenly appeared and defeated the blood-colored Yang Spirit.
As soon as the Yang Spirit was destroyed, the old man turned into smoke and disappeared in the air.
The Fox King that the fox girl mentioned was Monster King Ling. I knew that, but Monster King Ling had already died and reincarnated.
Why did the fox girl say that the Fox King's power had suddenly appeared?
I had this question in my mind, so I blurted it out.
The fox girl saw that I had interrupted her and hurried to explain. The Fox King's power had shot out from my forehead.
The Qing Qiu Clan had a close relationship with the Fox Monarch, and the Fox Monarch had set up a restriction in their bloodline.
The moment the golden light appeared, the blood in the fox girl's body quickly churned, and a wave of pressure almost suffocated her. Only then did she determine that the golden light was the power of the Fox King.
Her words reminded me of the image of the Monster Emperor Jun that had appeared in my mind when I was on the brink of death. Then, I heard a loud explosion.
In that case, the Fox King's power had appeared at that time.
However, when the fox girl mentioned the golden light that shot out from my forehead, I thought of another matter.
When I was in the wasteland behind the Jade Buddha Temple and was suppressed by the Pure Dragon Village, a golden light also appeared on the forehead of my Yang Spirit. With that golden light, I disintegrated the Pure Dragon Village after the Yang Spirit had left my body.
From this, it could be seen that the golden light back then was also the so-called Fox King's power.
When I advanced to the Yang Spirit Stage, I felt that the mark on the forehead of the Yang Spirit was a little strange.
In that case, the mark was the symbol of the Fox King's power.
In that case, the Fox King's power had always existed in the Yang Spirit and would only be triggered in times of danger.
Since the power came from the Monster Emperor Jun, it was normal that the old man and his blood-colored Yang Spirit couldn't resist it.
However, the Fox King's power was really strong. If I could control it as I wished, I would be invincible in the world.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel excited.
However, if I only thought about it by myself, it would definitely be of little use. It would be better to wait for the evil spirit to return and ask him about it.
In that case, I didn't dwell on this matter anymore. However, the fox girl kept asking me why I had the Fox King's power.
From her words, it seemed that the Fox King's power was extremely precious. Even if I was the God Messenger sent by the Fox King, I wouldn't be able to obtain such power.
I was quite curious, but I didn't ask her. The more I spoke, the easier it would be for me to expose myself.
However, she was willing to sacrifice herself to protect me. This friendship really moved me.
Now that she kept asking, I couldn't just ignore her. However, I couldn't tell her the real reason, so I could only make up an excuse. I said that the Fox King had suddenly summoned me when I was on the verge of death. Seeing that I was in danger, he gave me some power to save my life.
After hearing that, she became excited and asked if the Fox King was all right.
I knew that the Qing Qiu Tribe had been waiting for the Fox King to return for several thousand years. If I told her about the Monster Emperor Jun's death, I was afraid that something unexpected would happen.
I could only make up another excuse and say that the Fox King was all right.
After hearing that, the fox girl didn't hesitate and said that she understood. She didn't pursue the matter any further.
The matter had been resolved, but I still had some doubts in my heart that I wanted to ask her about.
Due to her injuries, she couldn't walk around. It was a good time to ask her about her doubts.
With that in mind, I asked the fox girl why she had come to Shennongjia.
After hearing that, the fox girl quickly told me the details.
From her, I learned that some time ago, the High Priest had divined that the Mountain and Sea Realm was about to open. He then ordered the Elders of the Qing Qiu Tribe, whose cultivation bases were higher than the Yang God Celestial Master, to inform the Demon Clan in the outside world. They were to go to the Qing Qiu State to discuss the matter of welcoming the Fox King.
She had come to Shennongjia to inform the Liu Tribe.
She mentioned that the High Priest had divined that the Mountain and Sea Realm was about to open, which wasn't beyond my expectations.
Recently, whether it was the Shaman Tribe, the Buddhist Sect, or the Xuan Dao Tribe, all of them had been discussing this matter.
With the Demon Clan trapped in the Mountain and Sea Realm, it was normal for the Qing Qiu Tribe to be anxious.
However, all of them had their own plans.
The Shaman Tribe had opened the Mountain and Sea Realm to prevent the Shaman Tribe from going extinct.
The Xuan Dao Tribe and the Buddhist Sect believed that the Mountain and Sea Realm was actually the World of Immortals, and that opening the Mountain and Sea Realm was to seek eternal life.
However, the Demon Clan wanted to open the Mountain and Sea Realm because they thought that the Monster Emperor Jun was still there. They wanted to welcome him back and lead the Demon Clan back to the peak.
They all had their own standpoints, and I couldn't decide who was right or wrong. However, there was no doubt that the Mountain and Sea Realm had to be opened.
The matter gradually became clear, and there was nothing to ponder about.
However, the fox girl had mentioned that the High Priest had asked Yang God Heavenly Master and above Elders to come out and deliver the message. That meant that the fox girl in front of me was an Elder.
Combined with my previous conjecture, the State of Qing Qiu had really undergone earth-shaking changes. In just a few short months, the positions of Elders had all changed hands.
Looking at the fox girl's appearance, she shouldn't be more than a hundred years old. If it had been a few months ago, no matter how talented she was, her cultivation base would have been limited by her bloodline. But now, why was she at the middle Yang God Heavenly Master Realm?
I really couldn't figure out the reason behind this, and I was very curious. I quickly asked the fox girl what had happened in the State of Qing Qiu over the past few months.
The fox girl was very intelligent, and as soon as she heard my question, she understood what I meant. She immediately explained to me.
According to her, ever since Yao Yao had become the Clan Leader, there had been no opposition in the clan. Even some stubborn people didn't dare to openly criticize her.
Yao Yao knew that if she wanted all the people to submit to her, she had to do something that would satisfy everyone.
She spent a lot of time and visited the people before she found out that the biggest problem the clan was facing was the speed of cultivation.
This matter had troubled the people of Qing Qiu for thousands of years. For thousands of years, the people of Qing Qiu had been working hard, and they knew that it wouldn't be solved in a day.
After she asked the High Priest for advice, she found out that the root cause of this situation was the serious defect in the bloodline of Qing Qiu.
As long as the defect in the bloodline was solved, the problem of cultivation would be solved.
However, it wasn't that the previous Clan Leaders couldn't see the crux of the problem, but because their bloodline was the same as the people of Qing Qiu, it was useless to use their bloodline as a guide.
However, Yao Yao was different. She was from the Tushan Clan and had a powerful bloodline. If she used her blood as a guide, she might be able to completely solve the defect in the bloodline of Qing Qiu.
Since there was a method, Yao Yao naturally wouldn't let it go. After discussing it with the High Priest, she started preparing to use her blood as a guide.
However, this matter couldn't be guaranteed, so she could only choose a few people from the clan to test it first.
She didn't expect that these people would really solve the defect in the bloodline. Not only that, but their cultivation talent also improved significantly.
The Qing Qiu Country was originally a secluded place, and its location was very hidden. It had abundant spiritual energy, and the clan had a complete set of cultivation methods. In less than a few months, most of the people who were used as test subjects had advanced to the Yang Shen Celestial Master level.
The fox girl in front of me was one of those test subjects.
At this point, the fox girl didn't say anything more.
Although she was a test subject, according to the final result, she was still very satisfied.
In just a few months, she was able to rise from the Glorious Consciousness Realm to the Yang Shen Celestial Master level. This speed is really too shocking. Even someone like me who has all five elements can only look at it and sigh.
However, although I don't know what kind of secret method Yao Yao used to use her blood as a guide to have such an effect, based on the strength that the fox girl showed earlier, she hasn't really reached the level of the Yang Shen Celestial Master.
In other words, this secret method can only improve the surface of the cultivation, and the real strength still needs to be accumulated through continuous cultivation.
Now that the matter was clear and the fox girl's strength had recovered a lot, I didn't plan to stay here any longer. I told her that I still had something to do, so I said goodbye. I also asked her to send my regards to Yao Yao after returning to the Qing Qiu Country.
After saying that, I got up to leave.
However, I hadn't taken a few steps when the fox girl called me again.
I didn't know what else she wanted, so I turned around and asked her.
I didn't expect that she would tell me that she had been here for a few days, but she still hadn't found the whereabouts of the Liu Clan. She asked me if I knew their location.
Speaking of the Liu Clan, I knew about them.
The Liu Clan is one of the five clans of the Grey Fox and White Willow, which refers to the Snake Clan.
However, the sudden mention of the Snake race reminded me of something.
When I first entered Shennongjia, the Snake Spirit told me that he had sensed his wife's aura here, so he asked me to let him go and find her.
Later, he didn't return for a long time, so I went to find him. Finally, I found the couple in a secret place.
