Chapter 2494 Old Fox



Chapter 2494 Old Fox

Chapter 2494 Old Fox

Unable to enter the spiritual mist, Qin Sang decided to escape his predicament of being surrounded, but unfortunately, the others had no intention of letting him go.

'boom! ’

A bolt of blue lightning descended from the sky, crashing into the depths of the mountains and instantly crushing dozens of peaks.

The place where the blue lightning struck erupted with dazzling lightning, and countless electric snakes and pythons shot out in all directions, leveling more mountains and causing astonishing destruction.

'Swish! Swish! Swish!'

The group climbed above the thunderbolt and looked down at the ground, only to be surprised to find that they had lost their target.

Qin Sang disappeared right under their noses!

The outburst of thunder was clearly Qin Sang's deliberate act. No one knew what he had done under the cover of the thunder, managing to deceive everyone's senses.

Yue Lingshuang couldn't help but look at Gui Geng. Among those present, Gui Geng possessed special supernatural abilities and the most acute spiritual senses.

Gui Geng shook her head gently; she hadn't found any trace of Qin Sang either.

Having suffered two setbacks at Qin Sang's hands, Gui Geng's eyes flashed with frustration and embarrassment, and he couldn't help but begin to doubt his own abilities.

At this moment, the Eastern Flood Dragon King arrived riding a stream of fire. The three kings, Zhu Qian, and others gathered together and discussed for a moment, intending to use some kind of supernatural power to find Qin Sang.

Suddenly remembering something, Yue Lingshuang warned, "Be careful, this person is treacherous and cunning! Go back quickly!"

Seeing that she was pointing in the direction of the spirit mist, everyone understood what she meant.

Their attention was all drawn to this side, and this person might take the opportunity to get closer to the spirit mist. We must not give him a chance. As long as we separate him from the spirit mist, the immortal mansion is only so big. I don't believe he can escape very far. We will find him eventually.

Qin Sang's previous actions revealed his close relationship with Dao Ting. Although these six people were wary of each other, they all had a common enemy, and it was not yet time to break off relations.

Everyone immediately returned to the vicinity of the spirit mist, each occupying a position to surround the spirit mist in the middle.

If Qin Sang wants to get close to the spirit mist, she has to get past them first!

Still unaware of Qin Sang's whereabouts, the Eastern Flood Dragon King cast a complex magic seal, and the Spirit Mirror slowly rose.

The flowing fire formed by the combined spiritual fire of the three kings of Zhu Qian had not yet dissipated. It was guided by the spiritual mirror and hovered in the sky. Then, the spiritual fire surged into the spiritual mirror. After the three colors of spiritual fire entered the spiritual mirror, they all turned into one color.

In a moment, the flames disappeared, and a crimson mirror hung high in the sky, like an eye of the heavens, its light shimmering as if a spiritual eye was blinking.

Upon being reflected in the magic mirror, Yue Lingshuang, Jin Geng, and Gui Geng all felt uneasy, as if their secrets had been exposed, and subconsciously cast spells to cover themselves.

It is evident that the methods employed by the three kings of Zhu Qian at this moment are far from ordinary. There are probably not many hidden supernatural abilities in the world that can deceive the Crimson Mirror. Everyone looked expectantly at the mirror.

The precious mirror slowly rotated in the sky, reflecting the scene in the celestial palace. The scene in the mirror was clear and transparent, with subtle ripples constantly brushing across it, as if washing away illusions and returning to reality.

Unexpectedly, the mirror spun for a full 100 minutes without any abnormality, as if Qin Sang had vanished into thin air.

Undeterred, the Eastern Dragon King continued to manipulate the magic mirror to rotate once more, but to no avail. The three kings, Zhu Qian and his brother, were astonished to have failed.

The Eastern Flood Dragon King looked at Yue Ling Shuang, "Fairy, you once fought with this person. What methods did he use?"

Yue Ling Shuang didn't try to hide her shame and said truthfully, "This person is very powerful. I had already used the Heavenly Fox Token, but in the end I escaped into the False Immortal Mansion to get rid of him."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Everyone present was well aware of the power of the national protective artifact. Even when Yue Ling Shuang used the Heavenly Fox Token, she could only flee!

"Of course, it's also related to my not wanting to alarm Tianhu Mountain..." Yue Lingshuang added, and everyone was relieved.

Then, Yue Lingshuang explained in detail: "This person is skilled in swordsmanship, his technique is exquisite and unparalleled, and his swordsmanship is the strongest I have ever seen. Moreover, he is proficient in thunder magic, which is why I suspect he is a successor of the Daoist Court. This person also possesses two spiritual treasures that can unleash Void Domain Divine Powers; it was these that blocked my Heavenly Fox Token. Furthermore, this person has an unnamed small mountain that is extremely powerful, and I dare not let him get close..."

Everyone looked at each other.

Jin Geng frowned and said, "Does the fairy mean that this person cultivates both the physical body and the magic body?"

Half-demons possess unique physical constitutions, and many cultivate both magic and physical abilities, but ultimately, they must make choices. Throughout the history of the half-demon kingdoms, very few have been able to cultivate both magic and physical abilities to an extremely high degree.

Yue Ling Shuang nodded: "Everyone, please don't let your guard down. What I've described may not even be his full strength. In a one-on-one fight, none of us are his match!"

Her decision to reveal Qin Sang's identity in public was a last resort.

If she could defeat Qin Sang, she would definitely find an opportunity to secretly kill him and take all the benefits for herself. Even with the national treasure, she couldn't defeat him; now that the Heavenly Fox Token has lost its power, she's even less of a match for Qin Sang.

Furthermore, among the six people present, she was the only one alone. She had made a great contribution by seizing the Daoist inheritance from Qin Sang, so these people couldn't turn their backs on her and instead launched a surprise attack on her. This was the only way for them to be able to win over both sides.

……

At this very moment, Qin Sang was hiding in the small cave.

He dared not hide in the small cave in front of the Nascent Soul stage powerhouse, but it was easy for him to deceive these Void Refinement cultivators.

Qin Sang looked serious as she pondered how to break the deadlock.

He left Zhuque to guard Jiaosheng Kingdom, and now his only helpers are Xiao Qilin and Yuying.

Although the little Qilin had comprehended some profound supernatural abilities, its cultivation level was too low, making it difficult for it to entangle even one of them.

It's unclear how much of Yu Ying's injury has healed...

Qin Sang's figure flashed, landing in front of a cave dwelling. He pushed open the door and went inside. Yu Ying's five senses were sealed when she entered, and the cave's restrictions were also set by Qin Sang himself. Perhaps Yu Ying could vaguely guess what was going on, but unless she saw it with her own eyes, she would never believe that Qin Sang carried a small grotto-heaven with him.

Yu Ying was immediately startled awake. Her face was still pale. She got up and was about to bow when Qin Sang waved her hand to stop her.

"Is the sect leader in danger?" Yu Ying noticed that Qin Sang's expression was strange.

How long will it take you to recover your strength?

Qin Sang didn't answer, but first asked about Yu Ying's injuries. Seeing Yu Ying's bitter expression, she knew that she couldn't be relied on in the short term.

"Alright, you can continue healing!"

Qin Sang shook her head, turned around and walked out of the cave.

Now he has to rely on himself and make a decision as soon as possible; he can't delay for too long.

Even if those people didn't understand the Daoist laws and restrictions, they could still join forces to attack the Spirit Mist and force their way in. No one knew how long the Spirit Mist could hold out under their combined attack.

If they steal the Daoist treasures, they can take them back later. But if those treasures contain the key to controlling the Immortal Abode, and they take over the Immortal Abode, leaving us trapped, then the situation will be irreversible.

It's not advisable to expect them to fight amongst themselves. Before eliminating you, they will first guard against you. Even if they do fight, it's probably just an act to lure you out.

Furthermore, the commotion outside is too great; Cangwu Kingdom must have already received the news, and soon all five superior kingdoms will be alarmed.

If the delay continues, and the powerful figures from the five great nations gather here, it will be even more troublesome if they discover the true Wuji Academy. Since Qin Sang is unsure of the situation outside, he can't say for sure whether Wuji Academy, having now revealed itself, can remain as well-hidden as before.

There is also a hidden worry lurking in Qingning Palace.

The Qingning Palace was hollowed out by a mysterious person. Judging from the remaining traces, the person who took the treasure was of extraordinary strength.

Qin Sang suspected that the half-demon kingdoms might not be without powerful figures!

In any case, he must take over Wuji Academy as soon as possible, otherwise there will be too many variables.

Qin Sang stood on the mountaintop, lost in thought.

Unfortunately, he hadn't sealed a Thunder Sacrifice Oath within the Thunder Beast Guardian because he was worried that using the Thunder Altar would be too conspicuous and would be discovered. Currently, the Thunder Beast Guardian is sealed with the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Seal; otherwise, the current situation could be easily resolved.

At this moment, the little Qilin walked over and gently rubbed against Qin Sang's palm, its eyes filled with guilt.

It knew Qin Sang was in trouble, but it was too weak to participate in the battle. In addition, its previous search for the origin of the Qilin had yielded no results, which made the little Qilin, who was eager to help Qin Sang, very frustrated.

Qin Sang looked down at the little Qilin's eyes, knowing what it was thinking, and suddenly smiled, gently stroking the little Qilin's head.

"Qilin, do not worry! Do a few toothless tigers think they can stop this humble Taoist?"

Upon hearing this, his smile was filled with boundless pride. The little Qilin's eyes immediately lit up, all his worries vanished, and his eyes were filled with excitement and admiration.

With a slight thought, Qin Sang summoned the Thunder Beast Guardian beside him. He gazed at this guardian who had accompanied him from the Misty Sea to the Great Wind Plain. Holding a thunder spear, it knew no fear and was always ready for battle. As long as Qin Sang gave the order, it would be his most reliable helper!

A hint of emotion flashed in Qin Sang's eyes. He patted the Thunder Beast Guardian on the shoulder and summoned the Heaven-Binding Golden Lock and the Earth-Imprisoning Divine Ring.

Lightning flashed across the chest of the Thunder Beast Warrior, its lightning armor melting as it absorbed the two spiritual treasures into its body.

Then, Qin Sang's gaze shifted to the gate of the path, and she took a step out!

……

Outside the small cave.

Despite everyone's best efforts, they were unable to find Qin Sang. Helpless, they could only guard against Qin Sang while investigating the spiritual mist.

"This cloud of spiritual mist is indeed extraordinary!"

"The Eastern Dragon King sighed."

The others agreed wholeheartedly; they had just tried many times and felt completely lost.

There are many legends about the Daoist court, and the Five Directions Upper Kingdom has collected some treasures from the Daoist court era. However, the few people present did not know much about the Daoist court, but they knew that the Daoist court's talismanic magic was divine and its thunder magic was unparalleled in the world.

Even with the information they had, they still couldn't find a way and had no clue whatsoever.

The spiritual mist was not only mysterious, but it didn't even give them a chance to comprehend it.

It's like holding a sharp weapon, but facing a smooth ball with no flaws.

They were met with strong hostility from those inside, and anyone who tried to force their way in felt a powerful threat. After discussing the matter, the group sent Prince Nan Yun into the spiritual mist, but he could only move within the outermost layer of the mist.

Having driven Qin Sang away, they were still helpless against the spiritual mist. Now the problem was back to square one: they had to find Qin Sang and force him to reveal the secrets of the Wuji Academy.

Everyone had one thought that they didn't voice: to join forces and launch a fierce attack on the spirit mist.

Putting aside the question of whether they could break through the spiritual mist, they worried that attacking the spiritual mist would cause even greater changes, or even worse, lead to the destruction of the immortal abode, where everyone would perish. Therefore, this should be the last resort.

At this moment, Gui Geng stepped forward and suggested, "We can split into two groups and take turns protecting the other side."

The previous lack of progress was due to their inability to concentrate. Without focus, they couldn't unleash their full power. The group took turns, concentrating on deciphering the code, drawing upon the accumulated knowledge of the three great immortal kingdoms, determined not to believe it was without flaws.

Yue Ling Shuang was the first to object, "You all have colleagues, but I'm all alone. How can I trust that you won't take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack..."

The group managed to come up with a plan, and were about to put it into action when, unexpectedly, they discovered Qin Sang's whereabouts!

……

Unknown land.

There is a grotto here.

The interior of the grotto is very large, with strangely shaped rocks and stone pillars of varying sizes standing on the ground or hanging upside down from the dome.

"Tick-tock...tick-tock..."

The sound of stalactites dripping echoed in the quiet cave, indicating that it was a natural karst cave.

Inside the grotto, atop a stone pillar, sits a figure in meditation.

This person was thin and small, probably about the same height as a twelve or thirteen-year-old child when he stood up. He had the head of a fox, but his hands, which were placed flat on his knees, had limbs like a human's.

The fox head had its eyes tightly closed, and its breath was almost nonexistent. Although it was a fox head, one could see that it looked somewhat old, but it was by no means frail.

His hair was incredibly white, and he wore a snow-white robe. His entire body was spotless and immaculate, and the skin on his hands was bloodless, making him look like a statue carved from jade.

Suddenly, the old fox's eyes trembled slightly, then snapped open, revealing deep, mysterious eyes that seemed to hold the starry sky within them, yet also hinted at the hardships and trials of the world.

The old fox gently raised its head, staring straight ahead, its gaze seemingly piercing through the cave, as if it saw something.

Immediately, the old fox raised his right hand, calculated for a moment, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, the old fox vanished into thin air and reappeared in front of the cave entrance. He raised his hand to push the stone door open, but hesitated.

Finally, after much deliberation, the old fox withdrew his hand, stood quietly in front of the stone gate, and gently flicked his fingers a few times.

'Snapped! '

A drop of stalactite dripped from his feet and seeped into the earth.

……

forbidden.

The natural disaster is escalating, and this one is incredibly powerful, unprecedented in recorded history.

Only the herb gatherers who were on the edge of the forbidden area managed to escape; had they been even a step slower, they would have been trapped there forever. They floated in mid-air, gazing at the unrecognizable forbidden area, their eyes filled with horror.

"Come on!"

Someone said something, and everyone, like startled birds, turned and fled.

The storm caused by the natural disaster is spreading outwards and has already crossed the boundary of the forbidden area; staying there would be tantamount to suicide.

They escaped the no-man's land at top speed. The nearby immortal kingdoms had already discovered the strange occurrences in the forbidden area, and upon hearing the news they brought back, they were thrown into chaos.

These people gathered together, boasting about how alert they were and how they discovered the natural disaster in advance and successfully escaped.

Unbeknownst to everyone, a whirlpool appeared in the river beside them, from which emerged a figure made of water.
