Yun Yang said solemnly. Vertices X23US
"When the Qi of Dao is used on the crown prince, its effect is only limited to fusing his soul. It's like casting pearls before swine. If it's used on other Saint Lords, it can allow them to connect to Dao. Whenever the Qi of Dao appears, the commotion is never small. It's difficult to conceal or seal it off. "
"The attraction of the Qi of Dao has always been slow. It's impossible for it to disappear all at once. It's a relatively long process. "
"All the Saint Lords in this secret chamber who are involved in this matter will be able to see it and touch it! If someone with ulterior motives tries to steal the Qi of the Great Dao at this moment, then apart from this spy, the other Great Sages will suffer a considerable degree of backlash … And at this time, the Fox Empress should still be escorting the Qi of Life and slowly absorbing it. She can't be distracted … "
The Fox Empress paled.
This was something that no one dared to guarantee!
If the Qi of Dao appeared, it would be normal for even the most loyal of subordinates to have second thoughts at that moment.
This … this was the most uncontrollable situation!
"This can only be done by me personally. I have to fuse it into my son's soul as quickly as possible." The Fox Emperor's expression was solemn as he sighed. "Yun Yang is right. No one can trust this."
The Fox Empress' gaze on the Fox Emperor softened.
The people who would never harm a child in this world were the child's biological parents!
She could still trust the Fox Emperor.
"However, it's too dangerous for Your Majesty the Fox Emperor. His Majesty the Fox Emperor has to participate and monitor the entire process and be on guard at all times. Just maintaining the spiritual energy of the Ethereal Amethysts and spiritual jade will require more than ninety percent of the Fox Emperor's energy. Add to that the work of fusing the Qi of Dao, it's more than a hundred pounds. Isn't it too difficult? "
Yun Yang frowned.
"Don't worry about it. I'm used to multitasking. I'll only need to activate the Energy Ignition Arcane for a moment and I'll be able to complete the entire treatment process." The Fox Emperor patted his chest confidently and gave Yun Yang a discreet look of approval.
'This child really knows what to do.
His idea was even more thorough and flawless than what I had thought of myself.
"It's not that I doubt His Majesty, the Fox Emperor, but what the Fox Emperor has done has increased the risk by more than thirty percent. If anything goes wrong, His Majesty, the Fox Emperor, will at the very least pay the price of a heavy injury to his spirit … He might even die because of this …"
Yun Yang was hesitant. "Besides, it's not enough even if you're multitasking. Other than ensuring the leakage of the two spiritual crystals' energy and protecting the Qi of Dao into the crown prince's soul, Your Majesty the Fox Emperor still has another task that must be done by you."
The Fox Queen's face turned pale.
She was also a great expert in cultivation, so how could she not know that while protecting the Qi of the Great Dao from entering the child's soul, he also had to seal off the entire space with all his might to prevent the energy of the spirit crystals from leaking out. For the Fox Emperor, this was already a tremendous amount of pressure.
He was already in danger of dying.
Now … there were actually other things to do?
"What else … do you have to do?" The Fox Queen's voice was trembling.
Yun Yang sighed and said, "This is the real last step … The crown prince's soul has shattered. Logically speaking, the crown prince is already dead and his soul should enter the cycle of reincarnation. However, we're forcefully retaining him with the art of stealing heaven, intending to revive the dead … This itself goes against the workings of heaven's will. To make the entire healing process a complete success, we have to use the Qi of Reincarnation to build a passage with the effect of reincarnation at this last moment so that the soul can pass through the passage …"
"The Qi of Reincarnation …" The Fox Queen's body trembled.
The Qi of Reincarnation might not be as precious as the Qi of Dao, but it was not much easier to find than the latter. It was something that could only be found once in tens of thousands of years.
"Don't worry, Fox Queen. I have the Qi of Reincarnation as well. Of course, I only have one." Yun Yang said, "Perhaps both of you don't know this, but the first thing we have to face when building this reincarnation passage is the mystery of the fetus, which is the soul force of the parents involved. Only with the soul force of the parents can we truly steal heaven and earth. I don't think I need to explain more about this, do I? "
The Fox Queen nodded.
Of course, she understood this point.
When a living being reincarnated into this world, it had to go through the nurturing of the father's essence and mother's blood, which was also the cause of the mystery of the fetus. The method that Yun Yang mentioned was probably to give birth to the child again …
If Yun Yang had mentioned the Qi of Reincarnation before agreeing to give the Qi of Dao, the Fox Queen might have been extremely grateful, but she might not have lost her composure like this. With the more precious Qi of Dao before her, the Qi of Reincarnation's preciousness paled in comparison.
However, to the Fox Queen, the Qi of Reincarnation was more important than the Qi of Dao. This was the foundation of her son's survival!
Of course, under the trio of Qi of vitality, Qi of Dao, and Qi of Reincarnation, the Fox Queen's gratitude towards Yun Yang had reached its peak.
Anyone could see this. Once the Fox Crown Prince was successfully rescued, the Fox Queen would become Yun Yang's die-hard fan. She would look up to him and never waver in this lifetime!
Looking at the Fox Queen's teary eyes, Yun Yang sighed and said, "In this case, Your Majesty's workload will be even heavier. The method of reincarnation of your parents' soul energy is not difficult, but it's most taboo to be disturbed …"
The Fox Emperor grew more delighted. 'The more difficult and dangerous it is, the better.' However, his expression did not show it. "It's fine, it's fine. Even if I have to multitask, it's not a problem for me. For my son's life, what's a little risk?"
Yun Yang's expression turned odd. "Multitask? I'm afraid it's more than that! At this time, Her Highness the Fox Queen has probably finished escorting the Qi of vitality, so there's still some room to maneuver. I believe Her Highness the Fox Queen will be fine, but Your Majesty, you're not only multitasking, you're also responsible for the Qi of Dao and sealing the space from beginning to end, and … "Yun Yang coughed and did not continue.
The Fox Queen's lips trembled as she said, "Not multitasking … He – He has to be responsible for a total of four tasks? Other than maintaining the sealing of the space to prevent the spiritual essence from leaking, he also has to divide his attention to prevent any accidents from happening, protect the Qi of Dao after that, and finally, reincarnate the soul. All of these require a great deal of effort from him. Is this multitasking? "
As she spoke, she glanced at the Fox Emperor, her gaze filled with apprehension and worry.
Yun Yang nodded and said, "The Fox Queen is right. This is what I'm truly worried about. The key to this rescue plan lies with Your Majesty, the Fox Emperor. However, there's still a flaw that I have to make clear first. Even if everything goes smoothly and no accidents happen, Your Majesty will still have to pay a certain level of exhaustion. "
The Fox Queen paled and asked, "Exhaustion? What level of exhaustion? Sect Leader Yun, please tell me!"
Yun Yang paused and said after some deliberation, "It's not too much of an exhaustion. He'll probably be weak for thirty to fifty years, then he'll be back to normal."
The Fox Queen paled even more.
Weak for thirty to fifty years?
For someone of the Fox Emperor's level, this was not considered a serious exhaustion.
However, a smart person would habitually overthink things. The premise of being weak for thirty to fifty years was that everything would go smoothly and there would be no accidents. What if something went wrong?
The Fox Queen wanted to ask this question, but she could not bring herself to do so.
Saving her son was her greatest wish. Even if she had to exchange her life for it, she would not hesitate. However, the price she had to pay now was related to her husband's safety. What if she ended up losing her husband in order to save her son?
Losing the two most important men in her life at the same time was an outcome she could not accept!
Even if it was a one-for-one exchange, she had no other choice!
The Fox Emperor asked calmly, "What if it doesn't go well?"
Yun Yang answered, "If it doesn't go well … at least half of one's cultivation base, spiritual force, or deific consciousness will be lost. It'll be hard to recover in this lifetime. If it's more serious, like if Lord Fox Emperor expends too much energy during the process of protection and can't sustain it, whether it's the Qi of Dao or the Qi of reincarnation, one's soul will be destroyed on the spot. There'll be no chance of survival …"
The Fox Emperor remained calm, not saying a word, as if he was not the one involved.
The Fox Queen was trembling, her eyes widening, her face as pale as a sheet.
Yun Yang acted as if he did not see it and said, "Therefore, preparations must be made in advance for this treatment. If everything goes well, it'll be a blessing, but if there's a setback, we'll have to make a choice then. The choice … is when things don't go well, when there's a ripple in the soul. If we insist on the treatment then, there's hope for the crown prince to recover, but the price he'll have to pay in the meantime will be paid by the Fox Emperor. "
"On the other hand, if the treatment stops abruptly, Your Majesty will only have to pay a hundred years of recuperation while the crown prince's soul will be destroyed from then on, never to return."
At the end of the day, should the situation worsen, would the adult or the child be saved?
After that, the Fox Emperor and his wife fell silent for a long time.
Yun Yang sighed and said, "If the Fox Emperor had come to me earlier, there's no need to go through so much trouble. With the Qi of Dao and the Qi of reincarnation, the Crown Prince's soul can be easily repaired. With the Qi of vitality to nourish his physical body, he'll only need to rest for three to five days at most, even if he doesn't recover instantly. However, the Crown Prince's condition now is that his soul is already riddled with cracks, and the power of the dragon and phoenix souls is encroaching on him.
His soul has been torn and reassembled before shattering again after it's reassembled … This has increased the danger and difficulty by more than a hundred times … "
"If it hadn't been for the previous ordeal, everything would've been fine …"
Yun Yang sighed and said, "To put it bluntly, it's a great blessing that the Fox Crown Prince can still have this opportunity of mine now … If it wasn't for my master coming out to train and staying away from the outside world and giving me more protective items … If it wasn't for someone asking me to be loyal and the Fox Emperor being the key to my mission … otherwise …"
Yun Yang had been nagging for a long time, but he did not know that the Fox Empress was not listening to the rest of his words.
The Fox Empress' mind was buzzing.
Choice.
A difficult choice!
Was it a son or a husband?
The Fox Empress knew very well why Yun Yang had been nagging for so long. When the time came, such a choice would definitely appear!
When the time came, she would have to make this cruel choice!
If she wanted her son to live safely, she would have to sacrifice her husband. At the very least, he would have to be severely injured and on the brink of death. On the other hand, if she did not want her husband to pay the price, she would not save him. She would just watch her son die.
What kind of bloody choice was that?
The Fox Empress almost wanted to roar at the sky.
'Asking a weak lady like me to make such a cruel choice – are you forcing me to my death?
Or are you playing me to death? '
'Oh my God!'
The Fox Emperor was calm. With a wave of his hand, he said, "What choice is there? There's no need to worry. I've enjoyed my demonic life for tens of thousands of years, but in recent years, I've been repeatedly betrayed. My heart has long grown cold. If I can't survive this ordeal, it's fate. "
"No matter how long I live in this world, I'll only be at this height now. My son, on the other hand, has a limitless future. Needless to say, even if the worst-case scenario happens, the first choice is my son. It can only be my son. This is the conclusion. There's no need for further discussion! "
He said softly with a calm expression, "The worst-case scenario might not necessarily happen. I'm confident that I can deal with all the dangers and difficulties. At most, I'll just have to sacrifice a little bit of my life and suffer some light injuries. After resting for a few days, I'll be fine. The so-called accident is just an excuse for not being able to do it perfectly. Leader Yun, you've generously given us the Qi of the Great Way, the Qi of Life, and the Qi of Reincarnation. It's already clear that fate is on our side. As long as we deal with it carefully and do our best, what reason would there be for an accident to happen? "
He stood up and said, "Little Brother Yun, you've been working hard during this period. Now that you're here, you can have a good rest. I'll make arrangements for this matter. One day later, we'll start. "
As he said, he shouted, "I know that you're a cautious person. Why don't you just stay in this secret room and rest? Even if the Demon Emperor comes personally, he won't be able to enter this secret room!"
He reached out to support the Fox Empress, intending to leave with her. Unexpectedly, the Fox Empress was trembling all over. Her petite body seemed to have gone limp on the Fox Emperor's arm. Being supported by the Fox Emperor, she actually started crying.
However, the Fox Empress' tone was unusually weak as she said, "Leader Yun, do you have any other way … that can satisfy both sides?"
Yun Yang shook his head and said in a low voice, "The Fox Emperor and the Fox Empress are deeply in love. Yun Yang is deeply moved, but there's a limit to one's strength. I've already done my best to set up the three formations. I don't have any more energy left. If the Fox Empress wants more, it's truly beyond my ability!"
The Fox Empress' expression grew paler. With her status and experience, how could she not know that Yun Yang was speaking the truth? It was already a great blessing that her son had obtained the peerless treasure that the five sects had not been able to gather since the beginning of time when he was on the brink of death. Yet, she was asking for more. It was truly out of line!
The Fox Emperor frowned and said, "The decision has been made. There's no need to ask for more. That's it!"
As he spoke, he helped the Fox Empress out.
However, they had only taken a few steps when they heard the Fox Empress wailing loudly, crying, "I'm done, I'm done!"
The Fox Emperor's angry roar could be heard, "Nonsense! Shut up! My son has obtained such a rare opportunity and is about to be reborn. What nonsense are you spouting? "
Then, with a flash, he vanished with the Fox Empress.
The voice was unyielding and stern, but Yun Yang could hear a tinge of gentleness in it, an inexplicable sense of being touched.
From what the fox guards could hear, it had been many years since His Majesty had been so domineering in front of the empress.
'Your Majesty, this is as far as I can help you. I'll feel bad if I help you fake it further,' Yun Yang thought to himself, 'The rest … I'll leave it to you to act.'
Sigh, as the saying went, it was better to believe that there were ghosts in this world than to believe a man's mouth. Yun Yang and the Fox Emperor had teamed up to deceive a kind mother's heart. The power of their verbal assault was frightening indeed!
That night.
The Fox Emperor and the Fox Empress argued until late into the night, almost for the entire night.
In the end, it seemed like the couple had stopped arguing, but the Fox Empress began to sob.
The Fox Emperor seemed to have lost his composure as he chided loudly, "What are you crying for? When there was no hope for our son, you cried and threw a tantrum … Now that there's hope, why are you crying and throwing a tantrum? "
"Are you crying because you're certain that I'm going to die?"
"Don't cry, will you? Aren't you afraid that you'll bring me bad luck?"
"I've already said that unless there's a huge accident, I won't die so easily!"
"Isn't it worth it to fight for our son? I've been fighting against the heavens for my entire life and I've survived so many perilous situations. Are you still worried about me? You want to take me in with this little setback? What a joke! "
"Why don't you think about it further? What was Yu 'er's oracle written back then? Today, he's not going to die, he's going to receive the Qi of vitality, the Qi of Dao, the Qi of reincarnation, and the protection of the three sects' rare Qi. The road to becoming a saint is paved, and there will be no more bottlenecks to speak of! What a rare opportunity this is! Even the starry sky's level, which no one has ever touched since the beginning of time in this world, might not be so far away! For this opportunity, even if I really die, won't it be worth it? "
"You're not saying that you're happy for your son's future, but you're crying non-stop. What is this?"
"If my son can become the strongest in the starry sky, even if I die now, I'll be happy and honored, let alone take a risk!"
The Fox Emperor was passionate.
The Fox Empress was still crying. "But I don't want you to die … Nine-tailed White … you're so cruel. You only think about your son, your future, your future … Have you ever thought about me? If you die, what do you want me to do? "
The Fox Emperor said anxiously, "Can't you be a little more reasonable? Earlier, when there was no other way, you kept trying to kill me. You wanted nothing more than to kill me with your own hands … Now that there's a way, you're crying like a baby! Don't you want to save your son? "
The Fox Empress cried loudly. "I want to save my son … But I'm even more unwilling to let you die …"
She threw herself into the Fox Emperor's arms, heartbroken. "This time … you're taking too big of a risk … Ah Bai, why don't … Why don't we have another one …"
The Fox Emperor did not know whether to laugh or cry. "You, you, you … You're also the Empress of a clan. How can your words and actions be so confusing!"
The Fox Empress cried and threw a tantrum. "I'm confusing, I'm unreasonable! No matter what, I won't let you die! "
The Fox Emperor hugged his wife tightly and sighed softly, but his voice was resolute. "Mei 'er, Yu' er is our only bloodline. No matter what, I don't want Yu 'er to die. It was like this in the past, it's like this now, and I hope it will be like this in the future. It's not because of his divination, but because he's our son. Do you understand?"
His voice was slow, but it was resolute.
After saying that, he pushed the Fox Empress away and turned around. "Hurry up and rest. We'll take action tomorrow morning. This matter cannot be delayed. The more we delay, the more dangerous it will be!"
The Fox Empress hugged him tightly from behind and said sorrowfully, "Brother Bai … If … If there's … Tonight is the last night. Are you not going to accompany me this night?"
The Fox Emperor shuddered and said gently, "I'll go and make arrangements for tomorrow's matter. Once I'm done, I'll come back immediately to accompany you."
They finally went out.
As soon as they went out, the Fox Emperor's solemn expression disappeared and was replaced with joy. He even secretly made a funny face. His whole body felt refreshed.
'This life of mine, Nine-tailed White, should be considered complete … Hehehe.'
The two Fox Clan Great Sages who were waiting for the Fox Emperor and the Fox Empress in the hall worriedly suddenly saw the Fox Emperor's funny face. They were both stunned for a long time. Their mouths were open, but they couldn't say a word for a long time. The expression on his face was extremely strange.
The Fox Emperor coughed, and his expression became calm again. His voice became unusually heavy. "Come here. Let's discuss tomorrow's matter. Gather all the Great Sages. I have important instructions!"
From the room behind him, the Fox Empress's anguished cries could be heard.
The two Great Sages suddenly had an extremely strange feeling. They opened their mouths and nodded in a daze. Like idiots, they received a stern and warning look from the Fox Emperor!
"Yes, yes!"
The two Great Sages nodded repeatedly like chickens pecking at grains. Both of them were overwhelmed with shock.
'I … I saw how our Emperor lost his composure. Will I be silenced?!'
In the hall.
The Fox Empress hid behind the screen and listened carefully to the Fox Emperor's arrangements.
Indeed, as the Fox Emperor said, the foundation of this rescue work was extremely stable. As long as there were no accidents during the rescue process, success was expected. And the so-called accidents were just mistakes made due to insufficient preparation or carelessness. As long as they were careful enough, they could avoid accidents to the greatest extent!
"… Tomorrow, completely seal off the mansion! All twenty-four Great Sages will participate in this operation … The rest of you will be responsible for protecting the outside … You must ensure that nothing goes wrong … This will be the future hope of our Fox Clan! "
"… If everything goes smoothly, naturally there will be no problems. But if anything really happens … If I am not around in the future, all of you must assist the Crown Prince well. Our Nine-tailed Clan will not allow any internal strife!"
"… If anything happens to me, the nine Elders will immediately be promoted to Mandate Ministers and form the Mandate Cabinet. All matters will be discussed and decided with the Empress. The Empress' will is my will! All of you must remember this! "
"If nothing happens to me, what I said today would be a joke! Don't mind me, haha. "
The Fox Emperor's hearty laughter could be heard. When the Fox Empress heard it, she felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. She could not control herself!
'I have been too willful all these years! I have let Brother Bai down … Brother Bai is so good to me … but I always throw a tantrum at him …
'May the heavens bless me. If we can get through this safely, I will definitely be obedient to Brother Bai in the future. I will definitely be a good wife to Brother Bai that all the Demon Clans will envy …'
As she thought about it, she secretly shed tears. At that moment, she only felt that her intestines were in knots.
'The heavens gave me such an outstanding and caring husband, but I did not cherish him …'
'I pray that the heavens will give me another chance …'
The Fox Empress prayed earnestly.
However, for some reason, she kept imagining that after tomorrow, her husband would unfortunately pass away, and she would be lonely and destitute for the rest of her life …
She could not help but feel sad and uneasy.
All the Saint Monarchs of the Fox Clan had extremely solemn expressions, and their expressions were indescribably sorrowful. It was as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on their hearts. They knew that His Majesty was really going all out for the sake of the Crown Prince this time!
Only the two Holy Lords who had seen the Fox Emperor's grimacing face wore an odd expression, but they dared not show it. They only lowered their heads and coughed occasionally …
'It looks like I've really seen something I shouldn't have. I pray that the heavens will give us another chance. Don't kill me to silence me!'
The two Holy Lords prayed earnestly in their hearts.
However, for some reason, the image of them passing away the next day as expected, their souls would be destroyed, their souls would be destroyed, and they would be doomed eternally …
…
The next morning.
Yun Yang, who had rejuvenated himself, waited quietly in the secret chamber.
After a long time, he saw the Fox Emperor and his wife walking over slowly. The Fox Emperor was in high spirits while the Fox Empress' eyes were red and swollen.
At a place where the Fox Empress could not see, Yun Yang shot the Fox Emperor a look. "Your Majesty is amazing!"
The Fox Emperor returned a look. "Heh, heh, heh …"
Yun Yang's eyes darted back. "How are you going to thank me then?"
The Fox Emperor rolled his eyes.
"Your Majesty must have been very happy last night?" Yun Yang's gaze was mocking.
"… Rascal!" The Fox Emperor was speechless.
A smug smile hung on his face.
"It's about time. Let's begin." The Fox Emperor looked calm.
The Fox Empress suddenly screamed, "Wait!"
"Empress!" The Fox Emperor called out sternly.
It was only a moment, but the Fox Empress's face was already wet with tears as she glared at him stubbornly.
The Fox Emperor's voice was still harsh. "Empress, do you know that you are also an indispensable part of this plan? Are you trying to affect the treatment of your son by being so distracted now? Or are you trying to harm me? Or are you trying to make everyone die with you? Now that things have come to this, do you still want to act willfully?! I'll give you the last fifteen minutes to calm yourself down! "
"I don't care if you've calmed down after the fifteen minutes, we will begin immediately!"
"Set up the formation!"
The Fox Emperor hollered, signaling for Yun Yang to begin.
Yun Yang was already prepared. With a flick of his sleeves, the Ethereal Amethysts that were placed on the ground suddenly flew up and turned into rays of light, filling the entire secret chamber in an instant.
The Fox Empress was still sobbing, but she was forcefully controlling her emotions, swallowing her breath drop by drop. Tears streamed down her cheeks, but her breathing was gradually calming down.
Looking at the Fox Emperor's stalwart silhouette in front of her, her gaze was infatuated.
'Brother Bai … if you go, when our son truly takes over the Fox Clan, I'll go with you!'
As she thought about it, her gaze grew determined.
…
After a quarter of an hour, the treatment began.
The first step was to construct the Soul Sealing Formation with the Ethereal Amethysts. Yun Yang had been accumulating for a long time, and the formation was cast in an instant. The Fox Emperor followed suit, sealing off the entire secret chamber with the Heaven and Earth Cage.
The first step was a success.
The second step was to set up the Heaven Sealing Formation with the Supreme-Grade Spiritual Jade, concealing the Heaven's Will with the Supreme-Grade Spiritual Jade. Yun Yang was also well-prepared and successfully completed it. The Fox Emperor followed suit, maintaining the Heaven Sealing Formation's operation with the same method!
The second step was a success.
The third step was to infuse the Saint Monarchs' formidable demonic energy into the Ethereal Amethysts, causing them to melt into pure energy at a speed visible to the naked eye …
In an instant, the three-layered sealing space, including the Heaven and Earth Cage's power, became the world's most abundant source of spiritual energy!
The third step was complete!
Yun Yang hollered, "Fox Empress!"
Before his words echoed in the air, his right hand was already stretched out. The Fox Empress gritted her teeth and broke the mystical membrane on his wrist, guiding the Qi of vitality hidden within it over perfectly. She then slapped her hand on her son's body. She slowly channeled her cultivation into it.
The fourth step was perfect.
Then came the unprecedentedly grand fifth step. A total of sixteen Saint Monarchs, including the Fox Emperor, exerted their strength at the same time. The bottle that contained the soul shattered with a pop, and the faint energy of the soul seeped out bit by bit.
The stabilizing force formed by the sixteen Saint Monarchs slowly guided the energy of the soul into the air.
It was at this moment that all the Saint Monarchs showed signs of wavering in their state of mind.
An extremely pure aura of the Great Dao suddenly appeared in front of the Fox Emperor.
The Fox Empress had been guiding the Qi of vitality with all her might so that it could completely fuse with the Fox Crown Prince's physical body. Now, she had to divert a portion of her attention to bite her lip and stare fixedly at the Qi of Dao. This was the most crucial moment of the battle!
As long as a Saint Monarch harbored greedy thoughts, it would be an accident, a hidden danger!
However, as soon as the Qi of Dao appeared, the Fox Emperor hollered coldly, "Stay calm!"
Then, he reached out with his hand and activated more than half of his power. He forcefully guided the purple Qi of the Great Path toward Crown Prince Fox's soul.
However, the guiding speed was abnormally slow. After a breath's time, the Qi of Dao had only moved a foot forward in midair!
Strictly speaking, guiding an aura, especially a special aura, into a specific target would normally take tens to hundreds of breaths' time. The Fox Emperor only needed a breath's time to guide the Qi of Dao to a distance of a foot. With his rare cultivation level, he would only need about ten breaths' time to guide it to the Fox Crown Prince's side!
However … everyone present was a Saint Monarch pinnacle expert. How could they not know the use of the Qi of Dao? Furthermore, at this moment, it was a special atmosphere where they could obtain anything as long as they made a move!
Not to mention ten breaths' time, even a breath's time was enough for the group of Saint Monarchs to snatch it!
When the Fox Empress saw this, she felt as though her heart was about to jump out of her mouth.
She seemed to be able to see the eyes of all the Saint Monarchs in this place shining with a luster of desire …
There were even a few Saint Monarchs who secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva as their eyes glazed over.
This scene only existed in her imagination, but it was the scene that terrified the Fox Empress the most. Once it came true, the Fox Empress nearly fainted. Once something went wrong, not only would her son not wake up, even her husband would die with him!
This was an outcome that the Fox Empress did not wish to see, nor could she bear!
The Fox Emperor was already giving it his all. He was releasing his power to the limit, striving to complete the guiding of the Qi of Dao as soon as possible. However, white fog was emitting from his body, nearly covering his entire body. Only his flushed face and eyes that looked as though they were about to pop out of their sockets were filled with malevolence. Blood trickled down from the corner of his mouth, making him look even more shocking and soul-stirring.
The Fox Empress' mind raced. She increasingly felt that the eyes of the Saint Monarchs present were already flickering!
This omen was far from good!
But why was the Qi of Dao moving so slowly …
The anxiety in the Fox Empress' heart was indescribable, her state of mind close to breaking down.
Even though she knew that she could not lose her composure. If she did, it would be the same as announcing the end of the treatment. However, there could be greedy people who would snatch the Qi of Dao away from her at any time, and she was helpless to stop them. The torment was not something that could be described with words …
When she saw the crimson blood trickling down the corner of her husband's mouth, the Fox Empress' heart shattered into a million pieces. She was utterly disheartened.
It was over. This was a sign that her husband was slowly losing his strength. At least, he could no longer afford to be distracted. This would definitely make the covetous people even more tempted!
She seemed to already feel the aura of greed spreading …
It was at this moment that a clear voice rang out. "The Qi of Dao is a unique aura that transcends beyond Heaven's Path. It is the most neutral and peaceful. Cultivators of our generation, embarking on the path of cultivation, prioritize a neutral and peaceful temperament. The rise of greed will forever be forsaken by Dao. A momentary gain is beneficial to the present, but it is not wise to destroy one's Dao future for this momentary gain."
The source of this clear voice was none other than Yun Yang.
He spoke slowly, "All of you Lords are cultivation experts who have spent your entire lives comprehending Dao. It's impossible that you don't understand or don't understand this simple logic. Every cultivator has their own Dao. It's the same for demons, it's the same for humans, it's the same for all living beings in this world. It's all within the unseen world, waiting for you to claim it with your own hands. "
"If you have no Dao, then … even if you can obtain thousands of Qi of Dao, you can't escape death. Once the situation is lost, how can you talk about advancing in Dao …"
Every word was like the evening drum and morning bell.
In spite of this, more blood flowed from the corner of the Fox Emperor's mouth. The Fox Empress' grateful gaze was focused on Yun Yang.
She did not know that the Lords were cursing inwardly, 'Who doesn't know this? Do we need you to remind us? '
The Lords who had been arranged to exude an unfriendly aura wanted to vomit blood to vent their frustrations.
'This fellow really knows how to take advantage of the situation. I wanted to say these words, but this fellow beat me to it …'
'Great, now the Fox Empress' gratitude is all his. Forget it, the key is that the Fox Empress might bear a grudge against me in the future. How good can I be then? '
After Yun Yang's words, the atmosphere gradually calmed down. The Fox Empress breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously and shifted all of her mental energy back to the Fox Crown Prince, concentrating on sending the Qi of vitality into her son's body.
After much effort, she finally completed the transfer of the Qi of vitality, but she felt like she was about to collapse. Her head was ringing – she had scared herself to death.
It was then that Yun Yang hollered, "Reincarnation!"
Before his words echoed in the air, the Qi of reincarnation materialized. In the blink of an eye, it extended in front of the Demon Saints, transforming into thousands of different forms. The netherworld, the cycle of reincarnation and rebirth; a road, a river, a city, a high platform, eighteen levels of hell – everything was there …
At the very top, an illusory bridge that resembled a rainbow appeared before their eyes.
It was also at this delicate moment that the Qi of Dao had completely integrated into the Fox Crown Prince's soul. The timing was impeccable and flawless.
Then, a tiny white fox the size of a fingernail appeared in midair. Its eyes were closed as it floated over slowly.
It was Prince Fox's Intrinsic Soul Essence. However, his Intrinsic Soul Essence was complete and flawless. There weren't any cracks or flaws, and it was even overflowing with the light of the Great Dao!
It was obvious that the initial damage to his soul had been completely healed!
The Fox Emperor hollered softly, continuing to seal the void. At the same time, the power of his soul left his body to support the left arm of his son's soul. Carrying the tiny white fox, he walked towards the other end of the rainbow bridge.
"Fox Empress!"
Yun Yang's heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly called out to her.
Because at that moment, the Fox Empress, who should not have made any mistakes and should not have made any mistakes, was in a daze for a moment. She had just relaxed her mind due to extreme anxiety and worry, and when she suddenly saw her son's soul in perfect condition, she could not react immediately.
The reincarnation was not dependent on the strength of the soul. It had to be facilitated by the combined power of the parents' souls. The Fox Emperor alone could not separate the little white fox from reincarnation completely. Looking at the rainbow bridge, the Fox Empress could not arrive in time. The tiny white fox looked like it was about to fall.
Following that, the Fox Emperor grunted, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth again. This time, it was a special blood that glowed with a faint golden light. His eyes were fixed on his wife, so anxious that his heart was about to explode, but he could not call out to her.
It was over, it was over. His act had turned into reality and he had scared his wife …
Yun Yang saw that the Fox Empress seemed to be stunned. With the most unexpected crisis looming, it was already too late to call out to the Fox Empress. He made up his mind and reacted immediately. He detached the power of his soul from his body and imitated the Fox Empress' power, going to the right side of the Fox Crown Prince's soul at lightning speed. He supported the tiny white fox and walked on the rainbow bridge.
Just a little bit more and the little white fox would have been annihilated on the rainbow bridge, wasting all their efforts.
The moment they stepped on the bridge, the eyes of the little white fox that had been shut opened abruptly.
Looking at Yun Yang and then at the Fox Emperor, its gaze was filled with admiration.
It was only then that the Fox Empress was jolted awake.
The power of her soul left her body and rushed to the right side of her son's soul, taking over Yun Yang's support of the little white fox's soul.
But that little white fox was very reluctant to stop and not go.
It stood still on the bridge, allowing the Fox Emperor and the Fox Empress to pull it.
Yun Yang wanted to return, but seeing that it would be difficult to end the situation if he did not advance or retreat, he could only go forward and pull the little white fox forward with the Fox Empress. Only then did the little white fox move slowly …
This peculiar scene that was beyond the demons' knowledge lasted for a few breaths.
When the little white fox finally walked across the rainbow bridge, it disappeared with a soft whooshing sound, returning to its original body.
The chest of the Fox Crown Prince's initially stiff body rose and fell slightly.
The next moment, the souls of the Fox Emperor, Fox Empress, and Yun Yang returned to their original positions at the same time!
Just as he opened his eyes, the Fox Emperor spat three mouthfuls of golden blood. He looked at the Fox Empress with his eyes wide open, pointing at her with a trembling finger, but he did not speak for a long time. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
The Fox Monarch had never expected that a great show that he had been so confident in would fail at the very last moment, when it was most unlikely for an accident to occur, would actually fail!
He had actually frightened his Empress to the point that she had lost her mind, resulting in a mishap at the last moment. His injury this time was real, it was definitely not a fake!
For a powerhouse at the pinnacle of this world like him, he had an unimaginable regenerative ability. Furthermore, the Nine-tailed Fox had limitless regenerative abilities, so vomiting a few liters of blood was nothing to him. However, what he had vomited just now was the heart's blood that originated from his life force. Although his current condition was not as serious as he had said, it was not something that could be recovered in a day or two.
This act was self-defeating in the end. It was karma, but it had nothing to do with anyone!
The Fox Empress watched her husband spit blood and was at a loss for a moment. She then cried out, regret written all over her face as she blamed herself. "It's my fault, it's all my fault, it's all my fault …"
Her tears fell like pearls from a broken necklace.
Yun Yang was the one who suffered the least injuries among the three. His reflexes were even faster as he grabbed the Fox Emperor's wrist and injected his own energy. With a flip of his hand, a wave of purple energy flowed in and he heaved a long sigh of relief. "Thank goodness!"
The Fox Empress asked anxiously, "How is it?"
Yun Yang heaved a sigh of relief. "Don't worry, Your Highness. His Majesty's life force is only slightly damaged. It's nothing serious. He'll recover after some rest."
The Fox Empress cried tears of joy.
It was then that the Fox Crown Prince, the Nine-tailed Jade, who was breathing softly on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes.
His pure and flawless gaze was like a newborn baby's as he murmured, "Mother …"
The Fox Empress shuddered as hot tears streamed down her cheeks. She hugged her son and sobbed uncontrollably.
There was self-reproach, ecstasy, and guilt …
The Nine-tailed Jade, who was in his mother's embrace, turned to look at Yun Yang with his pure gaze. He was hesitant, as if he did not know what to call him.
It was Yun Yang who had pulled him up at the most crucial moment and helped him to walk the rainbow bridge. In the Nine-tailed Jade's heart, he was like his mother. However, he already had a mother and Yun Yang was a male …
This inevitably made the Crown Prince of the Fox clan feel at a loss.
In spite of this, the kindness in his eyes was deeply rooted and came from the bottom of his heart.
Yun Yang responded with a smile but he was speechless inwardly.
'What the f * ck is going on?
Your father doesn't care for this cheap son! '
In fact, even he did not expect that the most unexpected part of the entire plan would happen. The Fox Empress could actually lose control of the situation for a moment due to her nervousness.
In the end, he was the one who interfered, causing him to seem to have a huge advantage in terms of seniority.
'But this advantage … I really don't want it!
I don't want a fox son no matter what … '
It was then that the Fox Emperor slowly woke up. The rest of the Lords were bewildered by the situation before them, not knowing how to deal with this complicated situation. They looked at the Fox Emperor, the Fox Empress, the crown prince, and then … at Yun Yang with inexplicable gazes.
The Fox Emperor woke up and stared straight at the Fox Empress.
Although he was committing suicide, the accident was too f * cking unexpected. If Yun Yang had not interfered so decisively, he would have been committing suicide by committing suicide!
The Fox Empress looked at the Fox Emperor pleadingly and guiltily …
The Fox Emperor sighed and sucked in a deep breath, saying, "Heaven has taken pity on us. Our family is finally safe."
The Lords congratulated him in unison.
The Fox Emperor was a pinnacle expert in this world after all. With a slight circulation of his inner energy, his condition improved considerably. He turned to look at Yun Yang, who was also looking back at the Fox Emperor with a conflicted expression. It was obvious that these two fellows, who were the instigators of the incident, were speechless.
Acting required talent, talent, timing, and cooperation, but more importantly, luck. Accidents were things that were beyond one's expectations!
The cycle of karma, retribution, retribution, retribution!
After a long time, the Fox Emperor spoke softly, "Brother Yun, the Nine-Tailed White Fox is unable to repay your kindness. I wish to swear an oath of blood with Brother Yun, to be sworn brothers in life and death. Please don't reject me, Brother Yun! "
Yun Yang was tongue-tied. "Me? … "
All the Great Sages were dumbfounded when they heard this.
Even the Fox Empress lifted her head in shock.
The Fox Emperor chuckled bitterly. "This is the only way now."
Yun Yang said hesitantly, "There's really no need to do this …"
The Fox Emperor rolled his eyes and snorted. "It was you and I who helped Yu 'er onto the Rainbow Bridge at the very last moment. It's the same as giving birth to him again … If you don't become my blood brother, do you want me to take you into my harem?"
As he spoke, he glared at the Fox Empress.
The Fox Empress lowered her head in shame.
Yun Yang's forehead was drenched in cold sweat.
'Take me into your harem?
You're dreaming! "
'I haven't even built my own harem yet …'
Without another word, Yun Yang stood up at once and bowed deeply. "Big brother, please accept this young brother's bow!"
The corners of the Fox Emperor's lips twitched. "Second brother, please rise …"
The crown prince, the Nine-Tailed White Fox, knew how to address him now. She called out affectionately, "Second uncle!"
Yun Yang clenched his teeth. "Oh, my … sigh …"
To be called uncle by a being who was at least a few thousand years older than him, and the other party had addressed him with genuine affection and admiration, was an indescribable feeling to Yun Yang.
Especially when the other party had treated him as his mother … Yun Yang felt that this was truly …
