"Junior Sister Linghu, you're an Eight Trigrams Celestial Lord, and you're more than 700 years old. Don't you think it's unfair for you to challenge Little Junior Sister?"
Lei Jun frowned slightly when he heard Linghu Yuan's challenge.
"Second Senior Brother, didn't you hear master say Little Junior Sister's strength is on par with He Wen and me? I'm afraid you're worrying too much. "
Linghu Yuan smiled.
Lei Ying did not react like Lei Jun. She looked at Huan 'er and said with a faint smile, "Huan' er, your Third Senior Sister wants to challenge you to a duel … What do you think?"
Lei Ying did not know much about Huan 'er's strength.
She had only said those words earlier because she knew Linghu Yuan would challenge Huan 'er. Now that Linghu Yuan was going according to her plan, she was, naturally, happy to see it happen.
"Alright."
Huan 'er nodded.
"In that case, both of you can go out and have a duel."
Lei Ying's eyes lit up when she heard Huan 'er's agreement. Then, she walked out of the palace and hovered in the air above the valley.
Duan Lingtian and the others followed after her.
"An Eight Trigrams Celestial Lord?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Linghu Yuan indifferently. Lei Jun had said Linghu Yuan was an Eight Trigrams Celestial Lord who was more than 700 years old.
It was impossible for her to comprehend all the profundities from a law to the mastery stage.
It was possible for her to comprehend seven profundities from a law to the mastery stage, but it was unlikely for her to do so due to her age.
At most, she would only be able to comprehend six profundities from a law to the mastery stage.
"Huan 'er, since she's the one who provoked us, there's no need for you to hold back. You can attack her as long as you don't kill her."
Duan Lingtian sent a Voice Transmission to Huan 'er.
He knew Huan 'er's strength was not as simple as it seemed.
Huan 'er's strongest ability was not her cultivation base or the profundities from the law of space, but her abilities as a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox.
If Huan 'er did not use her abilities as a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox, she would not be a match for him.
However, if she were to use the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox's technique, even he would not dare to say that he would be able to defeat her. In fact, he would most likely lose.
Duan Lingtian would have to rely on the Five Divine Elements to see through Huan 'er's illusions.
"Yes."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Huan 'er replied, "Brother Ling Tian, I won't hold back because I don't like her."
Upon hearing this, a hint of schadenfreude flashed in Duan Lingtian's eyes.
He knew that someone was going to be in trouble.
Huan 'er rarely got angry, but when she did, her anger was not something an ordinary person could withstand.
He was deeply aware of this point.
"Second Senior Brother, have you taken a fancy to this Junior Sister?"
Linghu Yuan looked at Lei Jun and asked with a smile.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Lei Jun frowned.
"If you don't like her, why are you speaking up for her? However, Second Senior Brother, if you really like her, I advise you to give up … Look at her, her entire heart is with the man beside her. "
Linghu Yuan chuckled.
A few moments later, everyone arrived at the location where Lei Ying had arrived. Huan 'er and Linghu Yuan stood facing each other as they stared at each other.
"Little Junior Sister, let me, your Third Senior Sister, witness your strength."
Linghu Yuan looked at Huan 'er with a fake smile on her face.
As soon as Linghu Yuan finished speaking, Huan 'er teleported and appeared behind Linghu Yuan.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
…
The sound of saber humming rang in the air as nine spatial tears appeared. Then, a gray saber flew out from each spatial tear, aiming for Linghu Yuan.
When Linghu Yuan saw this, she instinctively tried to dodge.
At this moment, a powerful wave of spiritual energy surged out from Huan 'er's body and spread out to interfere with Linghu Yuan's movements.
"No!"
Linghu Yuan shrieked. Then, she turned into a gust of wind and flew away.
Even so, a few streaks of blood could be seen on the spot where she had been standing. It was obvious she was injured by the Dimensional Slash Profundity.
"Was that … a soul attack?"
Everything happened so fast that even Lei Ying could not react in time. After all, she was not skilled in soul attacks.
Nevertheless, she could still sense the fluctuation of Huan 'er's soul with her Divine Consciousness.
Earlier, when Linghu Yuan was hit by the Dimensional Slash Profundity, she had mobilized all her Celestial Origin Energy to save Linghu Yuan.
It was not that she was trying to help Linghu Yuan. Even if Huan 'er was in danger, she would still step in.
She only had a few prodigious disciples under her wing. Naturally, she did not want anything to happen to them.
"Linghu Yuan won't dare to underestimate Huan 'er anymore."
Duan Lingtian looked at Linghu Yuan calmly. It was not difficult for him to see that Linghu Yuan had been injured because she had underestimated Huan 'er.
"Junior Sister is … so strong?"
Lei Jun was shocked.
"That soul attack is a little strange."
Ximen Linjie slightly narrowed his eyes, and his face became somewhat dignified.
"Junior Sister!"
At this moment, Linghu Yuan, who had fled far away, no longer had the look of contempt on her face. She looked at Huan 'er solemnly as she said, "It seems like I've underestimated you.
I won't hold back anymore. "
When Linghu Yuan reached the end of her sentence, her tone became colder.
"No one asked you to hold back."
However, in the face of Linghu Yuan's provocation, Huan 'er only replied indifferently.
Although his words were flat, when they fell into Linghu Yuan's ears, it was tantamount to slapping her face. Linghu Yuan had always been arrogant.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
Linghu Yuan seemed to have transformed into a gust of wind as she disappeared into thin air.
The gust of wind was headed for Huan 'er.
Swoosh!
Huan 'er teleported and disappeared from where she was, causing Linghu Yuan to miss her.
However, as soon as she appeared in another place, Linghu Yuan, who had transformed into a gust of wind, chased after her.
They went back and forth a few times, one chasing and the other dodging.
"Junior Sister, is dodging the only thing you can do?"
Linghu Yuan's impatient voice rang in the air. It was clear she was infuriated by Huan 'er's teleportation.
For those who comprehended the law of wind, those who comprehended the law of space were the bane of her existence.
Naturally, even if Huan 'er could teleport, Linghu Yuan was confident she could catch up to her. However, it would take a lot of time.
She did not want to waste that much time.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to last long if I don't teleport," Huan 'er said indifferently.
Everyone, including Duan Lingtian, had a strange expression on their faces when they heard Huan 'er's indifferent voice.
This was especially true for Duan Lingtian. His lips twitched involuntarily when he heard Huan 'er's words.
When did Huan 'er learn to speak like that?'
He felt a sense of déjà vu when he heard Huan 'er's words. It seemed like he had said something similar to her in the past.
"I'd like to see it for myself!"
Linghu Yuan exploded when she heard Huan 'er's words. The sound of wind whistling rang in Duan Lingtian and the others' ears.
Swoosh!
When Huan 'er reappeared, she did not teleport again.
However, a faint white light shone in her eyes. Following that, the silhouette of a huge white fox appeared behind her. It was as huge as a mountain, and it emitted a chilling aura.
Swoosh!
Without any warning, a white light shone in the eyes of the white fox behind Huan 'er as well.
In the next moment …
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Everyone, including Duan Lingtian, saw Linghu Yuan coming to a halt when she was close to Huan 'er.
Then, he actually attacked the void. His tyrannical power missed again and again.
"An illusion?"
At this moment, any ordinary person would be able to tell that Huan 'er had used some sort of illusory technique on Linghu Yuan, and she was unable to extricate herself from it.
"Is that … a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox?!"
While Lei Jun and the others were still in shock, Lei Ying's gaze shifted to the white fox silhouette behind Huan 'er that was gradually fading away.
As a titled Celestial Emperor, Lei Ying was, naturally, astute.
Although the Phantom Fox Clan's Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox only existed in legends, she was still familiar with its characteristics.
"I knew she wasn't human … I didn't expect her to be a rare Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox in the Phantom Fox Clan!"
"I've found a treasure! I've found a treasure! "
Lei Ying's eyes were brimming with excitement.
At this moment, even if Xu Lang offered her Duan Lingtian in exchange for Huan 'er, she would not agree to it. Huan' er might not be a match for Duan Lingtian in a head-on battle, but if she used her Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox, she might not be able to defeat Duan Lingtian.
Most importantly, Huan 'er was much more flexible.
As a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox, her potential to become a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor was high. Given enough time, she would definitely become a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor.
In fact, in the history of the Devata Realms, there were several thousand Phantoms Ice Foxes who managed to achieve godhood.
'More than 90% of Heavenly Emperors aren't able to achieve godhood.
If Huan 'er can achieve godhood, won't I, Lei Ying, and the Merciless Celestial Emperor, be fated with a god?'
When Lei Ying thought of this, she found Huan 'er pleasing to the eye.
When the Thousand Phantoms Icefox's silhouette disappeared, Linghu Yuan was finally freed from the Illusory Technique. When she saw Huan 'er standing in front of her in her snow-white robes, a look of disbelief appeared on her face. "W-why are you unharmed?"
One must know that earlier, she had clearly seen her Junior Sister being forced back by her attacks in a very sorry state.
However, in just a blink of an eye, Huan 'er seemed fine.
Linghu Yuan took a deep breath before she prepared to continue attacking.
"Enough!"
At this moment, Lei Ying said, "Third Brother, you've lost … If Huan 'er wanted to kill you, you would've died a long time ago."
