"Fellow Daoists, we have been tricked by the beasts. Now that they have lured us here, how can we affect the nine-tailed fox's tribulation?"
"That's right. Just now, we were angry because our fellow disciples were killed. That's why we fell into their trap. However, we can't just admit it."
"Oh? What good plan does fellow Mao have? "
More than fifty miles away from the nine-tailed fox's tribulation location, the beasts and cultivators had already shifted the battlefield here. After a chase, the Nascent Soul stage powerhouses of the five sects also discovered the purpose of the beasts and communicated with each other to discuss countermeasures.
Their purpose of coming here was to prevent the nine-tailed fox from successfully passing the tribulation. Of course, it was impossible for them to neglect their business because of fighting. If it weren't for the fact that a few half-form beasts suddenly went crazy and killed countless disciples, they wouldn't have been so angry and tricked.
Now that they had recovered, the Nascent Soul stage powerhouses wanted to break through the beasts' defense several times and go to the nine-tailed fox's tribulation location to destroy it, but they were all blocked.
Without any results, they could only communicate with each other to see if there was any good plan to get rid of the beasts' obstruction and smoothly leave here.
When the other four sects heard Mao Chen's words, they all asked if he had thought of a way. Mao Chen didn't keep them in suspense and directly answered everyone.
"It can't be considered a good plan. It can only trap the Demonic Beast for a moment. This amount of time should be enough for me to leave this place. However, I'll have to rely on you guys to block this Ringed Flower Snake." Mao Chen of Beast Taming Mountain was very confident in his methods.
"No problem. As long as you can take the opportunity to leave and destroy the nine-tailed fox's tribulation, we will have no problem resisting it for a while." The powerhouses of the other four sects agreed.
"That's good."
After Mao Chen saw that the others agreed, he directly took out a black token and controlled it to fly above the cirrus snake opposite him.
Rays of black brilliance were released from the token and completely enveloped the huge body of the cirrus snake. However, within the black brilliance, there was a red beam of light.
"What's going on? Why does it seem like the demonic elemental energy in my body has been suppressed by more than half? "
The ringed snake's movements stiffened. It was hit in the abdomen by one of the spirit beasts that Mao Chen had released to fight. Although it wasn't injured, it was still shaken.
As for the black token that Mao Chen had just taken out, the Ringed Cobra naturally knew about it. When the black brilliance enveloped it, it was about to dodge, but it was restrained by the spirit beast and did not succeed in its action. Thus, it was completely enveloped by the black brilliance.
And that white beam of light hidden within the black brilliance just happened to land on the position of her daemon core. Just as she was about to attack, she suddenly discovered that she could only mobilize a small portion of her daemon elemental energy. The rest of her daemon elemental energy was being suppressed by an invisible force.
After being hit in the abdomen by the spirit beast, more than half of its demonic elemental energy was suppressed. The Ringed Cobra felt greatly humiliated. It directly swung its thick snake tail and smashed it at the opposite spirit beast.
Her demonic elemental energy was suppressed, but the strength of her physical body wasn't affected at all. Those Beast Taming Mountain disciples who were controlling their artifacts to assist in the attack hurriedly retreated to avoid suffering any unnecessary injuries.
The snake tail swept past, but it didn't hit the spirit beast. Instead, it pounced on empty air. Sweeping its gaze, it saw the situation on the side and quickly chased after it.
At this moment, a few flying swords suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her movements. Several Golden Elixir disciples from the five sects successfully blocked her. They could only watch as Mao Chen left this place.
After recalling the spirit beast, Mao Chen directly used her movement technique and rushed towards the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's place of tribulation. As for those Golden Elixir disciples, they were secretly contacted by the Nascent Soul stage powerhouses to block the Ringed Cobra at this time.
Seeing Mao Chen leave this place, those demonic beasts of course knew her purpose. In a moment, they all exploded with a powerful force and scattered the surrounding attackers.
However, these self-cultivators were already prepared. Although they retreated to defend, they didn't weaken their attacks. On the contrary, these self-cultivators' attacks became even more fierce and successfully blocked the demonic beasts that wanted to leave.
The demonic beasts were worried about the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's tribulation. They were in a bad mood and each of their moves exploded with a powerful force. After those self-cultivators' fierce attacks at the beginning, they changed to a tight defense and firmly trapped the demonic beasts. The battle once again fell into a stalemate …
On the other side, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox had successfully blocked eight bolts of tribulation lightning with the help of the strength of her fox tail. Including the two bolts blocked by the white barrier at the beginning, she had successfully blocked ten bolts of tribulation lightning.
However, ten bolts of tribulation lightning was just the beginning. For demonic beasts, the total number of lightning bolts of tribulation lightning was fifty-four. In other words, the number of lightning bolts of tribulation lightning was sixty-nine.
Moreover, the power of tribulation lightning increased as it went on. The first ten bolts of tribulation lightning were just appetizers. The real "spicy feast" was yet to come. Whether or not the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox could finish it all depended on her luck.
The remaining eight fox tails had successfully blocked the first few bolts of tribulation lightning. However, the power of the lightning was too strong and couldn't be completely refined in a short time. Therefore, she could only block it once. The remaining time could only be used to slowly refine it. Otherwise, no matter how strong her physical body was, it would explode.
The last fox tail had just turned into a curtain when the tribulation lightning in the sky fell. The eleventh bolt of tribulation lightning had already become ten feet thick, equivalent to the waists of three adults.
"You must block it. You must block it. You must block it …"
For some reason, after watching for so long and seeing the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox dissolve the tribulation lightning again and again, Luo Ping and Li Wuyou actually began to secretly cheer for her in their hearts.
Perhaps it was the tenacity of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox that infected them, or perhaps it was because they lamented that it wasn't easy for demonic beasts to cultivate. These two good-natured and kind-hearted youths began to silently support her.
Although they hadn't experienced tribulation before, they also understood some taboos during tribulation. Otherwise, they would probably have directly shouted at the top of their lungs to cheer for her.
"Bang!" As expected, this tribulation lightning was blocked by the fox tail as well. However, this tribulation lightning was much stronger than the previous one. Thus, the originally white Nine Transformations Fox Tail was charred black. Countless small electric currents flowed back and forth across its surface.
Withdrawing her fox tail, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox suddenly raised her head with her back facing Luo Ping. Under the puzzled gazes of the two, a golden Yao Core flew into the air. It directly emitted a light that was dozens of feet long, completely isolating the space above.
The Yao Core was the main source of power for demonic beasts. It was also the gathering of the most essence of demonic elemental energy. Among the demonic beasts, there were very few treasures. If they wanted to resist the tribulation lightning, they had to completely rely on their own strength.
She had already blocked 11 bolts of tribulation lightning. There were still 43 bolts to go. However, her physical body was no longer able to resist, so she could only release the Yao Core.
In fact, using the Yao Core to resist the tribulation lightning was not without its benefits. It could also use the power of lightning to refine the Yao Core, making it more condensed and powerful.
However, if she was still stubbornly holding on when she couldn't resist the tribulation lightning and didn't withdraw her Yao Core, she would definitely be crushed by the power of lightning and turn into ashes.
This was the cruelty of demonic beasts' Heavenly Tribulation. Similarly, when cultivators faced the Heavenly Tribulation, if they failed, they would also be turned into ashes. There were very few who could truly cultivate as Itinerant Immortals.
"Someone's coming. Quickly hide." Luo Ping's sharp spiritual sense detected that someone was rapidly approaching from a distance. He immediately pulled Zhan Ze to hide in the distance. He restrained his aura and tried his best to remain calm.
The newcomer moved very quickly and arrived not far from the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox in the blink of an eye. He stood at the spot where Luo Ping and Luo Yunyang had been standing. He happened to see the tribulation lightning being stopped by the golden radiance of the Yao Core.
"You even released your Yao Core. It seems that you've already survived many bolts of tribulation lightning. I can't let you pass the tribulation so easily."
Mao Chen's face darkened. She released the spiritual beast that she had previously received from the Beast Taming Token. It was also a black token. With a flash of brilliance, a demonic beast that looked like a jackal and wolf came out.
Mao Chen's lips moved slightly a few times. As if it had received an order, the spiritual beast directly leaped and pounced in the direction of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox.
A sinister smile appeared on Mao Chen's face. Just as the spiritual beast was about to reach the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, she directly pointed a finger. A stream of light shot towards the black token, cutting off the connection between her and the spiritual beast.
In this way, she had no relationship with the spiritual beast. Even if the intervention of the spiritual beast caused the heavenly tribulation to attack, it would not be her fault.
This was the plan that Mao Chen had thought of before. At the cost of sacrificing a spiritual beast, she would disturb the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's tribulation. This way, she would not be implicated at all.
"Roar …"
The jackal-like spiritual beast attacked very quickly. Even if Mao Chen cut off the connection with it, it did not have time to react, let alone escape. It still directly pounced on the back of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox.
The pressure of the tribulation lightning instantly pressed this late-stage Yao Core spiritual beast to the ground. It was unable to attack the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's body.
However, this result was already very satisfactory to Mao Chen. What he wanted was to increase the power of the heavenly tribulation. Under the influence of external objects, the power of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's heavenly tribulation would definitely increase by a lot.
He did not believe that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox would be so lucky to be able to smoothly pass the tribulation. He only needed to watch here and wait for the moment the spiritual beast turned into ashes.
The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clearly understood everything that was happening around her. When she saw the spiritual beast being pressed down by the power of the heavenly tribulation, she directly stretched out her hand and shot out a ray of light that penetrated the demonic beast's body. At the same time, a suction force sucked in the spiritual beast's Yao Core.
Controlling the spiritual beast's Yao Core, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox directly threw it towards her own Yao Core. The moment the spiritual beast's Yao Core touched her Yao Core, it directly drilled into it like a clay ox entering the sea.
"Hmph, even if you devour the Jackal Wolf's Yao Core, it's useless. Just wait for it to return to heaven and earth." Mao Chen sneered.
After the twelfth tribulation lightning dissipated, the tribulation cloud in the sky became even bigger and the power it emitted was even more powerful. With a loud bang, two tribulation lightning bolts appeared.
Because of the spiritual beast's invasion, the power of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's heavenly tribulation increased. Originally, two tribulation lightning bolts would not appear at this time, but now it was happening.
"Whoosh!" Just as the tribulation lightning was about to fall, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's figure appeared beside Mao Chen at an unbelievable speed. While Mao Chen was extremely shocked, she directly grabbed him and brought him back to his original spot.
