Lu Ye took a light breath and looked at the fox demon. He couldn't count on Yiyi, so he could only rely on himself.
He secretly rejoiced that he had learned the Mind's Eye Secret Technique from Xia Liang and had a perfect training ground like the Mirage Realm, allowing him to achieve some minor success in the Mind's Eye Secret Technique in an extremely short period of time. Otherwise, this battle would really be difficult.
However, the threat of the fox fire still couldn't be underestimated.
His spirit was powerful, so the power of his mind was also extremely tough. Even so, his mind was still in turmoil when he was attacked by the fox fire. If it were an ordinary Cloud River Tier cultivator who was hit by the fox fire, they would probably be stabbed in the neck.
This fox demon could be domineering in the Fox Immortal Valley for close to 20 years. Sure enough, she didn't just rely on that strange spirit secret technique. This fox fire was probably a power she had never revealed in front of others.
Looking at the vigilant fox demon in front of him, Lu Ye slowly closed his eyes.
"!" The fox demon's green eyes narrowed slightly.
Cloud River Tier cultivators more or less had their own perception, but because it didn't involve the cultivation of the spirit, this kind of perception was extremely weak. Usually, it could be used to perceive some things, but in a real life and death battle, the perception of a Cloud River Tier cultivator couldn't be relied on at all. However, the enemy in front of her actually closed his eyes.
This made the fox demon momentarily unsure of what Lu Ye wanted to do.
However, she didn't have time to think too much. Only she knew how serious her injuries were, and the strength she could use now was limited. She had to kill this traitor in front of her in the shortest time possible to have any hope of survival.
Thus, with only a moment of hesitation, a few more balls of fox fire flew toward Lu Ye, followed closely by the fox demon's fierce killing intent.
The fox fire floated within a foot of Lu Ye and suddenly exploded, turning into little sparks that fell on his body. At this moment, Lu Ye frowned slightly. Obviously, he had been hit by a strange force again, and his mind was shaken and uneasy.
It was also at this moment that the fox demon that pounced over stretched out her sharp claws.
She raised her long saber and stabbed it at an incredible angle. The fox demon's eyes couldn't help but narrow, and she hurriedly dodged.
She looked at Lu Ye, whose eyes were still closed, in shock and uncertainty.
She quickly launched another attack, still using fox fire to open the way, and her true body followed closely behind.
However, the exact same thing happened again.
The fox demon retreated, feeling extremely shocked. If the first time was a coincidence, then the second time definitely wasn't.
This guy … could actually block my attack with his eyes closed?
On what basis?
It had not been easy for her to get her revenge. Now, she only had one wish, and that was to return to Fox Immortal Valley and comfort her master's spirit in front of his grave. However, her final wish was getting further and further away from her!
On what basis? The heavens were so unfair!
The mournful howl of a fox rang out, and when it reached Lu Ye's ears, it shook his mind, causing him to frown.
Along with the howl, the fox fire that blotted out the sky and covered the earth fell in an endless stream. The fox demon's true body was hidden in the fox fire, and it launched a crazy attack on Lu Ye.
Lu Ye stood in place and defended himself. The damage caused by the fox fire was negligible. The fox fire itself didn't have much lethality, but the impact of the fox fire on his mind was unavoidable. Moreover, the fox demon's angry attacks couldn't be underestimated. Even if she was seriously injured and couldn't display her full strength, she was still a Monster Beast comparable to a Ninth Order Cloud River Realm cultivator. If Lu Ye didn't have a foundation that far surpassed cultivators of the same level, he wouldn't have been able to block her attacks.
Bloody wounds constantly appeared on his body.
The Heart's Eye Secret Technique could indeed allow him to react correctly to dangers within a foot of him, but the fox fire's impact on his mind was unavoidable. Many times, he simply couldn't react in time.
[This can't go on!]
Even if Lu Ye knew that the fox demon was an arrow at the end of its flight and couldn't maintain this kind of attack for long, it was hard to say who would die first if this continued.
[I have to find a way to resolve the fox fire's impact on me!]
[But is there any way to resolve this strange fox fire?]
Lu Ye's mind raced as he suddenly realized something.
No matter why the fox fire could affect one's mind, it was still a ball of fire …
[Since it's fire, there's no reason for me to fear it.]
He recalled the scene of him entering the Land of Fire on the Spirit Stream Battlefield.
The Land of Fire and the Ten Thousand Poison Forest were both sacred grounds of the Spirit Stream Battlefield. It was difficult for cultivators to penetrate them. Some Spirit Stream Realm cultivators with strong foundations might be able to set foot on the periphery of these two sacred grounds, but no one had ever been able to enter their depths.
Especially in the Land of Fire, even the Overlord Level Banshee found it difficult to approach. One had to know that the Overlord Level Banshee was a Fire Attribute Monster Beast.
But Lu Ye had gone in, and not only had he only been a Seventh Order Heaven cultivator at the time, he had even obtained the Phoenix True Fire and activated the Fire Phoenix Spirit Tattoo on his Talent Tree.
The reason he was able to enter the heart of the Land of Fire was not because of his own cultivation, but because of his Talent Tree. At that time, when he was in a difficult situation, he suddenly had an idea and activated the Talent Tree's power, allowing the Talent Tree's invisible roots to cover his entire body, isolating him from the cruel environment of the Land of Fire.
The Talent Tree's power could even isolate an environment like the Land of Fire. Could it also isolate the fox fire's impact on him?
If it could, then his mind would no longer be affected by the fox fire, and he would be able to freely kill the Monster Fox.
With a thought, Lu Ye immediately activated the Talent Tree. As he immersed his mind, he saw the Talent Tree that was entrenched in his Source Spirit Aperture suddenly grow roots, then spread out, as if probing into an unknown space, and disappeared.
If Lu Ye activated the Insight Spirit Tattoo at this moment to inspect his body, he would see many root-like things all over his body, gently swaying along with the flow of his Spirit Qi.
His mind seemed to be weighed down by a heavy burden, and the power of his mind was rapidly being consumed.
Activating the Talent Tree did not consume his Spirit Qi, but the power of his mind!
Usually, when Lu Ye let the Talent Tree devour the Earth Fire, the consumption was very small, but at this moment, the consumption was more than a hundred times higher than usual. After all, his whole body was wrapped in the roots of the Talent Tree, and when he devoured the Earth Fire, only a few roots spread out from his body.
He suddenly opened his eyes and saw the crazy and persistent Green Eyes of the Monster Fox, who was moving and jumping not far in front of him, interfering with his judgment.
With the support of Wind Travel, his figure rushed out, directly facing the fox fire in front of him.
Fight a quick battle!
The Monster Fox did not know what happened to Lu Ye's body. Seeing Lu Ye actually take the initiative to crash into her fox fire, she was shocked and angry, and her beautiful figure jumped up to meet Lu Ye.
However, in the next moment, the Monster Fox was wrapped in a chill.
It was because Lu Ye's figure rushed out from the fox fire, and no matter how the fox fire exploded on his body, his firm eyes did not waver.
"Impossible!" In shock, the Monster Fox actually spoke human language.
However, for a Demonic Beast like her who could transform into human form, even in the state of her true body, it was not difficult to speak human language.
She knew the power of her fox fire. If an ordinary Cloud River Tier cultivator touched it, they would immediately fall into an illusion and be unable to extricate themselves. The shortest would be three to five breaths, and the longest would be ten breaths.
However, this traitor who betrayed her and the Fox Celestial Valley had shown a great resistance to her fox fire before, and her fox fire had only affected him for a moment!
This could be explained by his mind being strong enough, but how could he not be affected at all? Could the power of his mind be comparable to the Spirit Ocean Tier?
However, from the other party's calm eyes, he was indeed not affected at all.
While the Monster Fox was shocked, the distance between the man and the fox had been shortened to the limit. The bright light of a blade flashed in the Monster Fox's vision, and she only felt a pain in front of her. The huge impact sent her flying, blood splattering in the air, and she fell in a sorry state.
Hong …
In the blink of an eye, a figure had already landed in front of her, carrying a murderous aura. The power of the blade enveloped her like a storm, and each strike was fatal.
The fox fire reappeared, but this time it could not cause the slightest disturbance to Lu Ye. Without the fox fire to rely on, the Monster Fox, who was also an arrow at the end of its flight, had no power to resist this kind of attack.
Blood splattered, and the sound of the blade slicing through flesh rang out. Her snow-white fur was dyed red by the dark red blood, and the shocking color rendered her incomparably miserable.
As Lu Ye swung the blade again, the Monster Fox fell heavily to the ground. This time, she was unable to stand up. She lay there, gasping for air, and the light in her eyes had become extremely dim.
Lu Ye held the Mountain Pan Blade and stepped forward, looking down at the Monster Fox in front of him.
The Monster Fox turned her eyes, but her vision was blurry. She could no longer see Lu Ye's face clearly, and could only make out a vague outline.
"So … the heavens … have already punished me!"
In the last moment of her life, she seemed to have understood something, and she muttered to herself.
In these past years, she had continuously used her Soul Secret Technique to enslave cultivators on the Cloud River Battlefield. Those who dared to enter the depths of the Great Mang Mountains were all outstanding cultivators of the Cloud River Tier. In the past eighteen years, if not a thousand cultivators had died because of her, then at least eight hundred. As the number of cultivators she enslaved increased, the inexplicable sense of danger became more and more intense.
She knew that one day, the heavens would punish her for her actions.
She had originally thought that it would be a punishment similar to the Soul Extinguishing Divine Lightning on the Spirit Stream Battlefield.
However, she had never imagined that this punishment would be handed down in such a way, and under such circumstances that she was completely unaware of.
It was not until the last moment of her life that she finally understood the truth.
Lu Ye stood in front of the Monster Fox, and could sense her current state, but the words that came out of her mouth puzzled him greatly.
However, he did not delve too deeply into it, and simply treated it as the Monster Fox's last words. He raised the Mountain Pan Blade high.
"That's fine too …" A flash of blade light appeared in her vision, and the Monster Fox felt relieved. No matter what, she had avenged her master. Perhaps this could be considered the final gift from the heavens.
