Chapter 477: Demon Realm (2)
Tao Zi let go of the wild boar demon, looked at its trembling body, said "thank you" and walked in the direction where Zhao Xue left.
The wild boar buried its head in its forelimbs, and had not yet recovered from the soul search.
When it came to its senses, it raised its head cautiously. Did the human just say thank you to it?
"Need not……"
It had just opened its mouth, and before it could finish its words, it discovered that she had left, leaving behind a bag of food.
The wild boar weighed the bag happily. The food in it was enough for it to last for a month without going out to forage.
It seems that humans are not that bad.
The not-so-evil Tao Zi pointed the big knife he had taken from the Demon Realm at a demon beast and said coldly, "Say it again!"
"A great demon immediately ripped off one of its arms and legs and ate them. Other great demons fought over it, and I heard it secretly escaped on crutches during that time." The demon beast recounted the events calmly, adding, "That demon's bloodline is very noble, but its strength is weak. It makes a good target for devouring."
Tao Zi vaguely felt that her sanity was on the verge of losing control, and she felt like committing murder.
The little ghost scolded her in time in her sea of consciousness: "Tao Zi, this demon in front of you is just a bystander. It is not wrong. Don't lose your original intention!"
She closed her eyes, turned around and left, looking for those big monsters to settle the score.
The little ghost appeared anxiously, floating beside her and saying, "Those great demons are as powerful as those at the Great Perfection of the Out-of-Body Stage. You must stay calm! Don't let my... your life cost you this."
Tao Zi replied calmly, "More than that."
"ah?"
"The cultivation of monsters is divided into nine levels, one to nine. The first level corresponds to the body refining and foundation building, the second level corresponds to the whirling illumination and opening, the third level corresponds to the fusion and heartbeat, the fourth level corresponds to the spiritual silence, the fifth level corresponds to the golden elixir, and each level after that corresponds to a realm of Taoism cultivation, until the ninth level corresponds to the spirit transformation and tribulation."
The little ghost was confused and said, "I know this, there's no need for you to explain it again."
Tao Zi continued, "But how can the cultivation levels between demon beasts and Taoists be converted so simply? This is just the standard used by ordinary demon beasts. A powerful demon with a powerful bloodline, even a fifth-level one, can fight against a Yuanying - their bodies are much stronger than humans."
The little ghost said expressionlessly: "Speak human language."
"Some of those great demons should be able to defeat those in the early stages of Mahayana." She smiled softly, which was very inconsistent with her bloody appearance. "Little ghost, I'll transform into a ghost for fun, what do you say?"
It was about to explode: "Are you sick, Tao Zi! If you turn into a ghost, won't my soul be scattered?"
Tao Zi thought about it seriously and nodded: "That's right, this is a problem."
The little ghost was terrified by her expression. Is this person still sane or has she lost her mind?
She kept walking in one direction.
"Tao Zi, please don't commit suicide."
"No, I'm just going to explore the route and make a list, that's all."
She came to the place where the battle took place and walked around calmly, as if she was just there to enjoy the scenery.
The little ghost became more and more frightened and didn't dare to speak anymore.
Tao Zi stood in the center of the battlefield and thought for a long time, and finally walked towards the direction of the nine-tailed fox.
Along the way, she encountered many monsters that wanted to take her life, but she was killed with one blow.
Seeing that Tao Zi didn't kill anyone, the little ghost secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
When they arrived at the nine-tailed fox's territory, Tao Zi walked straight in without planning to inform the little fox first.
Her intrusion quickly attracted the attention of the monster.
Looking at these nine-tailed foxes that were of average strength but were cautiously following her, Tao Zi stopped and turned back to look at the monsters that hadn't even transformed yet, and said, "Are you following me to get yourself killed?"
The largest red nine-tailed fox stepped forward to protect the smaller nine-tailed fox behind it, saying, "Of course not. We're just trying to prevent you from doing something bad."
The little ghost sneered and said, "Just you two? You'd better get out of here."
The red fox said, "Young Chieftain doesn't allow us to act rashly, otherwise we wouldn't be following like this. Just wait, when the elders come, you'll know how powerful we nine-tailed foxes are!"
Tao Zi was suspicious and asked, "How old are you?"
"Twelve years old... No, why are you asking that? I don't need to tell you."
But you already said it.
The little ghost turned his head away silently, unable to bear to look at the stupid fox any longer.
She was also a little speechless. How dare the Nine-tailed Fox Clan let these little foxes run to the fox clan border to play?
After thinking about it, she simply kidnapped the red fox and disappeared in front of the little foxes.
All the little foxes were furious, red, white, and mixed-color ones, and they all chattered and contacted the elders of the tribe.
The red fox struggled frantically in her arms, but she grabbed its neck and couldn't escape.
After waiting for a place where the scent of foxes was thinner, she finally spoke, "Do you know what happened in the battle a while ago?"
The red fox said stubbornly, "Why should I tell you?"
Tao Zi placed the broadsword across its furry neck and said with a smile, "Because you want to live."
The red fox glanced at the big knife, but didn't insist on being stubborn. He said obediently, "An ancient bloodline has revived, and many monsters want to devour it."
"Ancient bloodline?"
The red fox thought about it and felt that this was not a secret, so he continued: "I heard from the elders that it seems to be a dragon."
Even Tao Zi was shocked for a while at this moment.
The little ghost said in disbelief: "That guy, a dragon? How is that possible? He's kidding me."
The red fox looked at the little ghost and responded quickly: "Do you know that dragon?"
The little ghost snorted and said, "What does it have to do with you, a stupid fox!"
The red fox glared at it and muttered, "I'm not stupid."
Tao Zi stopped their childish argument and asked, "What happened in the end?"
"I remember that many elders of the clan also passed by, otherwise we wouldn't be able to sneak out and play."
With just such a simple sentence, Tao Zi looked at it with murderous intent in her eyes that she couldn't control herself.
The red fox was completely oblivious and continued, "Unlike the other tribes, we're focused on protecting the dragon. The elders said the reappearance of the dragon and phoenix is a sign of Heaven's mercy to the demon race. We simply cannot watch the dragon race perish again."
It turned out that there was a fox tribe helping him. No wonder Zhao Xue was able to escape in such a situation.
Her eyes softened immediately, and the little ghost beside her breathed a sigh of relief. If she killed this stupid fox, she would probably become her enemy.
"But I heard from one of my sisters that the dragon had one arm and one leg chopped off by the Jiaolong Clan before it escaped. I don't know if it can survive."
Tao Zi repeated calmly: "Jiaolong clan?"
"Yes, the Jiaolong Clan."
