“Ikhhh . . . What is that?” Calista Qian Lin screamed, seeing the terrifying creature in front of her while hiding behind her brother’s body.Suddenly, out of nowhere, a terrifying figure appeared in that place. Its body resembled a human, more precisely a woman without wearing any clothes. However, the entire body of the creature was a glossy black, so no one would suspect that the creature was naked. Its facial features were like those of most women, except this creature had three eyes, one of which was right in the middle of its forehead. Only that eye differed in color from the rest of its body, being red.The creature looked even more terrifying with its very long hair touching the ground, even though it was about five spear lengths above the ground at that time. The hair was so thick that it scattered everywhere, showing the horror of the creature. Moreover, its glowing red eyes made the creature’s terrifying impression even stronger.“Who are you?” Julius snapped with a challen
“Haaaaaaaa!”The black creature, guardian of the forest of a thousand deaths, let out a fierce scream. It seemed like a command to attack as the black nine-tailed fox began to charge towards Julius. The fox was flung back upon hitting the darkness radiating from the young man’s body. Some parts of the fox even disappeared as if absorbed by the surrounding darkness emanating from Julius’s body.The creature appeared utterly astonished by what unfolded before its eyes. It never anticipated Julius could repel the attack it launched. Not a single one of the black nine-tailed fox’s assaults managed to touch the young man. Now, there were fewer foxes remaining, reduced by more than half.“Haaaaaaaa!”The black creature screamed once more. This time, the remaining black foxes suddenly transformed into black beams, which then merged back into the creature. Then, from the living creature’s body emerged a darkness that enveloped it entirely, rendering it invisible.Blaaaarrr!Suddenly, there wa
Blaaammmm!Everything was beyond the expectations of the man dressed in all red. It turned out the clash of powers between Julius and the nine-tailed fox queen demon was not like any usual fighters that left their defenses empty. The clash of energies between them created a circular wave of power around them. So, anything and anyone who tried to approach would be directly hit by that wave of power.The man dressed in all red, trying to take advantage while they were both engaged in the clash, was instead thrown far away by the force of the counter blow generated by the energy circle surrounding the two fighters. He was thrown to the ground and spurted fresh blood. From a distance, three greenish shadows approached the man in red.“Left Wing Commander, are you alright?” asked one of the green-clad men who had just arrived.“I’ve suffered quite severe injuries. You both should take me back to headquarters. I’ll report what I’ve found to the leader. And you, stay here and keep watch. Sei
“Where am I?”Julius just opened his eyes. He was surprised to find himself in a place similar to a chamber inside a cave. However, the place was well-maintained and very clean. There were flower plants everywhere, making the place fragrant. The room almost resembled a garden.What was astonishing about the place was the illumination inside. The illumination came from clear bottles containing dozens, perhaps even hundreds, of fireflies trapped inside. This made the place beautifully lit.After a while, footsteps were heard approaching from outside towards where Julius was. If it weren’t for his heightened senses, he wouldn’t have heard the arrival of the person, as they were walking barefoot, making their movements almost silent.“You’re awake, it seems. You’ve been unconscious for a week,” said the voice of a woman who had just arrived and happened to be behind Julius.“Hey!”Julius was startled when he turned around to find that the person speaking was a girl who wasn’t wearing any
“Hey, look at this!” exclaimed the mysterious girl now dressed in all white. Julius shifted his gaze towards the girl dressed in all white, who was now about six spear-lengths away from Julius. For a moment, her body emitted a greenish light. Shortly after, she transformed into a nine-tailed white fox.The incident certainly startled Julius. Now he began to believe what the girl said, that she was the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen. Shortly afterward, the girl transformed back into her human form. Then she walked towards Julius.“Do you believe me now?” asked the girl, the manifestation of the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen.“Hmmmm... Then why didn’t you kill me when I was defenseless earlier? Weren’t you very eager to finish me off before?” asked Julius. Julius asked this because he knew the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen had wanted to eliminate him for a year. He even had to resort to using the risky Dark God’s Body technique. However, that method failed because the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen fiercely resisted,
For a moment, there was no response. Julius waited, suspecting that the person he was wary of was following him, hoping they would reveal themselves. However, despite waiting for a long time, the person in question did not appear. Julius grew increasingly anxious and decided to quicken his pace, resuming his journey. Once again, he sensed someone following him.As Julius moved faster, he felt the person trailing him running even faster. The young man felt as though he was being toyed with by the individual following him. He halted his steps and turned back. Once again, he saw no one else in the vicinity, although he could clearly feel the emanation of their energy.“I know you’re here! Why are you such a coward, unwilling to reveal yourself? Aren’t you the Queen of the Nine-Tailed Foxes? Do you still feel indebted to me for saving you, hence following me all the way here?” Julius shouted.Still, there was no movement or sign of the person about to reveal themselves. This naturally inf
“Why do you keep following me all the way to this place? And why earlier did you play tricks on me, not wanting to show yourself?” Julius asked the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen, slightly annoyed.“Who said I was following you? You’re the one who bound me with the power within your body so that I can’t go anywhere except where you are. How could you accuse me of following you?” The Nine-Tailed Fox Queen replied lightly, enjoying the freshly served dish. Julius furrowed his brow, trying to understand the meaning behind the Nine-Tailed Fox Queen’s words. He could see no signs of lying on the girl’s face. However, he didn’t understand what the Queen meant by saying that he had bound her with the power within his body so that they couldn’t separate.“What do you mean?” Julius asked.“I don’t know myself; I thought you did it on purpose to me. After you left the Forest of a Thousand Deaths for quite some time, suddenly my body was attracted and entered into your storage ring. If you don’t use you
“Leon Elias Cros, it would be best for you and the entire city to surrender peacefully. Then we will allow you to leave the city safely. The condition is that you leave only with food and clothing, while your belongings must be left in this city!”A man dressed in all yellow shouted from the direction of the Demon Sect. It seemed he was the leader of the attack on the city of Citrine Canyon. Indeed, among the members of the Demon Sect, there were three people dressed in all yellow. However, only one person wore a golden headband, while the other two wore green headbands.Among the members of the Demon Sect, there were also about ten people dressed in all green. Meanwhile, those dressed in all black numbered around 120 people. It could be said to be a sizable force to attack a city. Moreover, the average cultivation level of that force was above the realm of heavenly spirit martial arts.On the side of the city of Citrine Canyon, there were also many martial practitioners in the semi-s
