I learned from the shop assistant that the Heavenly Lotus is in the Heavenly Maiden Snow Mountain, and Yuexi summoned the Fire Phoenix to come.
The journey is long, and traveling without a mount would consume a lot of spiritual energy. Moreover, the fire phoenix should be able to provide great help in the snowy mountains.
"Hey, why do you think this mountain is called Heavenly Maiden Snow Mountain? Is it because there's a heavenly maiden on the mountain?"
Ji Yun discovered that the plot of this mountain was not in the book, and all his advantages disappeared in an instant. If he had encountered some familiar ones, at least he would have known where the dangers were and been able to avoid them in advance.
Yuexi shook her head: "I don't know. These are names that have been around for a long time. Some herb-gathering cultivators have just kept calling them that."
The two rode away on the back of the fire phoenix, and before long, they encountered several divine senses probing them.
Seeing a fourth-tier demonic beast with people riding on its back, these people were hesitant to provoke it.
"Whoa!" Ji Yun shouted happily, only to be warned by Yue Xi's glare.
They bypassed several sects and flew directly over a high mountain.
"Sizzle!" A sharp sound rang out, and the powerful sound waves shook the fire phoenix down.
After landing, the fire phoenix steadied itself and looked at the giant creature in front of it with a wary expression.
The beast was entirely white and glared at them angrily.
"It's a white fox! Be careful! White foxes are extremely powerful and incredibly agile."
Before Yuexi could finish speaking, the white fox grabbed at the fire phoenix with one paw.
Fire Phoenix quickly defended itself, sending a giant fireball flying directly at it.
The fire phoenix was swatted away by a white fox's claw, followed by a white tail that lashed out and sent it flying.
The Moonlit Calamity Sword activated its second level, and a blood-red aura spread out.
Countless blood-red threads wrapped around the white fox.
Fire Phoenix quickly adjusted its body, flew into the air, and unleashed a barrage of attacks on White Fox.
Countless fireballs rained down from the sky, hurtling towards the white fox.
The white fox kept dodging the blood-red threads, while countless fireballs rained down from above. In a fit of rage, it leaped into the air at incredible speed, nearly scratching the fire phoenix with a single claw.
The fire phoenix dodged by flying to the side.
The white fox leaped several times, but the fire phoenix dodged each one.
Yuexi quickly manipulated the silk threads to chase after it, and several sword lights struck the white fox.
"Woo woo!" The white fox kept dodging the attacks and kept crying out. It changed its strategy and charged towards Yuexi.
Countless threads were severed by its sharp claws, and streaks of blood-red flying swords struck its body, causing considerable damage. However, the white fox demon beast possessed extremely strong physical defenses, preventing it from ceasing its offensive.
A fireball slammed directly into the white fox, which rolled away to dodge the subsequent attacks.
Yuexi dared not activate the third layer of the sword formation because her blood energy was insufficient. She still needed to find the Heavenly Heart Lotus later and needed to maintain a good condition.
Suddenly, a white figure rushed over from not far away, leaped, and with a single claw, sent the fire phoenix flying.
The fire phoenix fell to the ground and rolled several times, several long wounds dripping blood.
Another white fox came to the first white fox and rubbed its head against it; clearly, they were a pair.
Yuexi's expression grew even more serious.
Ji Yun thought to himself, "This is it."
He was pondering a solution. Animals have a strong sense of territory, but that's not a reason to start a fight casually.
What circumstances prompted this white fox to do such a thing...? In the animal kingdom, only animals that have just given birth are so sensitive and easily stimulated.
At this moment, Yuexi and Huofeng were engaged in battle with two white foxes, and he couldn't help them.
The fire phoenix was alright. Although it had been slightly injured, as a fourth-tier demon beast, its physical defense was still extremely strong. It fought a white fox while flying.
Yuexi faced one of them alone and immediately activated the third level of the sword formation, no longer daring to hold back.
Enveloped in a blood-red aura, countless crimson flying swords hurtled toward the white fox.
The white fox swatted away several flying swords with one paw and then closed in on Yuexi.
Countless crimson threads merged together, and a huge, sharp thread collided with the claw with a loud "bang!" as the crimson thread collapsed.
The white fox took a few steps back, one of its paws dripping blood.
Ji Yun applied several concealment talismans to himself, and would run into Yue Xi's sea of consciousness whenever there was danger.
Looking left and right, where are their children?
Upon closer inspection, he saw a cave a few hundred meters away and immediately ran towards it.
Soon Ji Yun arrived at the cave entrance, where the pair of white foxes were engaged in a fierce battle and had no time to pay attention to what was happening here.
Seeing the little white fox with its fluffy white fur, Ji Yun grinned and prepared to hug it, but the little white fox clung tightly to the tree roots on the ground, and Ji Yun couldn't pull it away.
"Hahaha, so cute! Good boy, let go of your paw, I'll take you to find your mother." Ji Yun pried open its paw, but after prying one open, the other paw gripped the tree root tightly again.
The whimpering sound was very much like a child's cry, and Ji Yun had to use a lot of effort to pry it open.
Seeing the little white fox in his arms struggling and crying even louder, Ji Yun quickly comforted it: "Aren't you happy too? Uncle isn't a bad person. I'll take you to find your mother. Are you happy?"
He grinned.
When the little white fox saw the man's smile, it was so frightened that it bit Ji Yun's arm, making Ji Yun wince in pain: "Little thing, you're too happy."
He slapped the little white fox on the head, making it dazed. It whimpered and then let go, continuing to bark.
Seeing the battle escalating in the distance, the two white foxes were covered in various wounds, while the fire phoenix was in even worse shape.
Yuexi is slightly better, but she has suffered severe blood and qi loss, and her lips are somewhat pale.
Upon hearing the child's cries, the two white foxes immediately looked at Ji Yun, their eyes fixed on him.
"Don't move, or I'll kill it! You wouldn't want such a cute child to die in front of you, would you? Hahahaha..."
Ji Yun's smile was sinister, as if he were a complete demon, holding the little white fox in one hand and threatening it.
The two white foxes stopped moving and walked step by step towards Ji Yun.
"Don't move, or I'll strangle it. I'm not kidding you."
Ji Yun turned his head: "Yue Xi, put away the sword formation and come here."
The two white foxes kept howling softly.
"Quickly open my child's mouth!" Suddenly, a slightly smaller white fox spoke, its voice sounding like a female's.
"Hehe, you can let me go, but you have to promise to let me go and not stop us."
Ji Yun chuckled as he carried the little white fox.
"Put the child down, and you can leave!" the male white fox said in a low voice.
"Let me make this clear first: I'll put your children down. If you still dare to lay a hand on them, don't blame us. You don't have the resources to protect your children. I hope you understand."
The two white foxes watched them warily, and Ji Yun slowly put the little creature down.
The little guy ran towards his parents, howling.
The fire phoenix flew away, and Yuexi took Ji Yun and flew away on her sword.
