The Divine Land was vast and boundless. In the world, other than humans who were known as the most intelligent of all living beings, there were countless other living beings, living together with humans in this world. For example poultry like chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs, ferocious beasts like jackals, wolves, tigers and leopards, were all common and familiar to humans. And since ancient times, there were many strange stories and legends circulating in the world, in the remote and desolate lands of the Divine Land, in the barren mountains and unruly rivers, there were some ancient spiritual beasts, primitive species, surviving in the human world.
For thousands of years, countless hot-blooded youths who traversed mountains and rivers to capture dragons and demons, had always been talked about enthusiastically by people, passed down by word of mouth. And in these numerous legends, the fox demon clan, perhaps not the most ferocious and most powerful monsters but without a doubt, the fox demon was the most mystical, mysterious and even the only legend with some worldly wisdom. When ancient beasts like the "Black Water Mystical Viper" became the target of countless youths to prove their cultivation abilities, the fox demon in people's mouths, seemed to carry a trace of ambiguity. Although there had always been legends of fox demons injuring people but different from other monster legends, the fox demon clan would often leave behind touching stories of falling in love with humans, in the various legends of evil monsters scourging the human world, it was really a very outstanding and unconventional strange thing.
Of course, these were all just the ordinary people, the common people, in the eyes of the real cultivators, the fox demon clan was a group of extremely intelligent and even cunning creatures. Their powers were far from the Black Water Mystical Viper that kind of unfathomable ancient demonic beast but these monsters understood human emotions, and even in the legends, when their cultivation reached a certain level, the fox demon clan actually had the ability to transform into a human, this might be the reason why those sad and beautiful human-demon love stories were spread. And in the fox demon clan, there was a most intelligent and most mysterious branch, it was said that as their cultivation increased, the tails behind them would continue to grow, a hundred years of cultivation would have three tails, called demon fox; a thousand years of cultivation would have six tails, called demon fox; and at the stage of nine tails, it would already be the supreme realm of the world's evil creatures, nobody knew how many years of cultivation it would take to achieve this but in the legends, when the fox demon reached nine tails, it would already be an exceptional evil creature, magical power, called "Nine-tailed Celestial Fox"!
It was just that this legend was too mystical, many people did not know about it, but in Ghost Li's heart, it was like a mirror. Not because of anything else, but because ten years ago, under the Fire Dragon Cave, the figure of the fox demon who died for love, was the first time in his life that his once firm belief received an impact. Even now, when he occasionally dreamed of it at night, he could still vaguely see the desolate and beautiful figure of the white fox. Rays of blue light refracted from the hard and cold ice, illuminating the altar's third floor. In front of Ghost Li and Xiao Hui, from the deepest part of the darkness, in the faint blue with some demonic glimmer, a huge figure slowly appeared. It was a white fox, a huge white fox!
This was the first time Ghost Li saw such a huge white fox's true form, from where he stood, this white fox was actually twice his height, as tall as two people. Even under the dim light, the pure white fur was still so beautiful. The smooth fur was as smooth as the best silk in the Central Plains. This was an animal that made people feel beautiful at first glance, just that its body was so huge, unknowingly, it also felt somewhat terrifying.
And in fact, this white fox, right now was in a state of extreme agitation. The originally quiet altar space was now filled with the white fox's sorrowful cries and shrill cries, the pair of deep black eyes embedded on the fair skin, right now were also filled with madness. The blue light became brighter and brighter, unknowingly a wind had already started blowing. Ghost Li's clothes fluttered, Xiao Hui was shrieking loudly, baring its teeth at the white fox, making a ferocious appearance.
Suddenly, the white fox made a cry, abruptly its front feet left the ground, actually stood up straight. Almost at the same time, Ghost Li felt the surrounding ice suddenly brightened with blue light, in the rumbling sound, two huge ice blocks, as tall as three people, moved in the air, fiercely smashed towards Ghost Li. Ghost Li frowned tightly, the Soul-Absorbing stick's green light glowed, carrying him and Xiao Hui swiftly retreated.
Almost at the same time their figures disappeared, the two huge ice blocks collided with a loud deafening sound, turned into ice shards and scattered on the ground. Without waiting for them to stop, the solid ice emitting blue light on all three layers of the altar lit up at the same time, in an instant the strange demonic power in this space flourished, innumerable big and small ice cubes slowly floated into the air, looking at the colorful glitter, it was incomparably beautiful and spectacular.
Ghost Li frowned even tighter, this nine-tailed celestial fox was indeed extremely powerful, these few years he had met all kinds of demonic beasts, other than the Black Water Mystical Viper that unfathomable ancient beast, this nine-tailed celestial fox was the most powerful. Just that for some reason, when his eyes passed through the innumerable sparkling beautiful enchanting blue light and saw that white figure, with its slightly crazed and deeply sorrowful eyes, a certain emotion that he had not seen for many years, like that pair of demon foxes who sacrificed themselves for love, started to linger in his heart, no matter what, he was not willing to attack this white fox.
Just that while he was hesitating, the nine-tailed celestial fox instead gave a sharp cry, instantly the innumerable ice blocks floating in the air, like being commanded by a mysterious force, all of them with lightning speed whizzed over. Ghost Li's face turned cold, hugged Xiao Hui to his chest, at the same time he controlled the Soul-Absorbing stick to fly to the side. For a moment, the sky was filled with blue light flashing, the ice like rain, the sounds of the ice blocks colliding were incessant. In every split second, innumerable pieces of blue ice, pursued that green figure.
Just that this green figure was like a ghost, often dodging in between, in the sky full of ice rain, either left or right, or up or down, evading this seemingly endless layers of ice rain. The white fox's shrill cries became even sharper, just that for some reason, in the anger, it seemed to lack energy. In the midst of the fierce battle, suddenly a green figure flashed, Ghost Li's figure somehow passed through the layers of ice, dashed near the white fox.
The white fox was startled, its beautiful white fur moved without wind, waved its front claws, looked like it was about to use some kind of strange spell, unexpectedly at this moment, a dark red light leapt up from its back, almost at the same time, the white fox's body shook, as if it was struck heavily, its eyes in confusion, the next moment its demonic power dissipated, its body actually fell down. And the next moment, the green figure floated over, a pale hand stretched out from the light, swiftly grabbed the white fox's neck.
The white fox gave a low cry, its eyes filled with pain and helplessness but looking at its expression, it closed its eyes, as if it had accepted its fate, closed its eyes to await death. His hand, carried the cold but still soft fur, Ghost Li's hand landed on the white fox's throat, the white fox's huge body was in front of him but for some reason, right now it was like a fragile little bird in his hand. Xiao Hui crouched on Ghost Li's chest, suddenly quietly called out a few times. Ghost Li quietly looked at the white fox before him, slowly withdrew his hand. The white fox slowly opened its eyes, what entered its eyes, was the man standing in front of it.
A man and a fox, just like that, gazed at each other! [Rumble!] Accompanied by a series of rumbles, the ice pieces dancing in the air behind Ghost Li, lost their demon power and started to fall down, colliding with each other, ice crystals splattering everywhere, there was even a white icy cold mist dissipating, rushing over from behind, completely covering Ghost Li and the white fox's figures. After a long time, the ice dust gradually settled, Ghost Li and the white fox appeared again. Xiao Hui had climbed up Ghost Li's shoulder again, its three eyes blinked, looked at Ghost Li and then looked at the white fox before it and then looked around again, as if it suddenly became interested in the beautiful ice crystals scattered all over the ground, jumped down from Ghost Li's shoulder, sat on the ground and casually picked up a few beautiful ice pieces emitting faint blue light, fiddled with them.
The white fox's eyes shifted from Ghost Li to Xiao Hui, looked deeply and then back to Ghost Li, after a while, it spoke, "Why didn't you kill me?" Its words right now, sounded like it had already calmed down. Ghost Li did not answer immediately, his eyes unexpectedly looked behind the white fox, very soon, he found what he was guessing. A dark red iron chain that was as thick as a human's arm was locked around the white fox's waist. Looking at it now, the iron chain was faintly glowing with a red light. Even from far away, one could feel the strange magic power.
Just now when the white fox suddenly lost its strength in the intense battle, obviously it was the effect of this prohibition. It was not strange, if not for such a powerful prohibition, with the legendary nine-tailed celestial fox's peerless demonic power, how could this Inferno Altar trap it? The white fox looked at Ghost Li, Ghost Li did not answer its question, it also did not seem to mind, because what it was concerned about, was actually another matter. "Where is Xiao Liu? Did you kill it and then took the 'Inferno Mirror'? "Its voice sounded very low, very tired. Ghost Li was silent, after a long while unhurriedly said, "The Xiao Liu that you are talking about, is it a six-tailed demon fox with six tails?"
The white fox's huge body shook slightly, lowered its head. "It is dead!" Ghost Li's voice was not loud but it was very clear. The white fox's eyes looked at the ground in front of it, faintly said, "How did it die?" "Ten years ago, me and... two friends heard that there was an evil creature causing mischief under Xiao Chi Town Black Stone Cave and went to investigate." Ghost Li's face was as calm as water, indifferently recounted the past. For a moment, the huge space was silent, only his voice gently drifted and occasionally Xiao Hui's playing sounds were heard. "... in the end, it saw that things could not be done and the three-tailed demon fox was also dead, it decided to commit suicide, before it died, it tied the Inferno Mirror to my hands."
