As a member of the fox demon clan, Su Yu knew very well how powerful a three-tailed fox was. Su Yu's current ability only came from one tail, and even her own Su Xue, who had advanced to the Golden Core stage, only had two tails.
However, this Su Chen has three tails, so his abilities are naturally superior to those of his sister.
The fox demon's tail represents its abilities; the more tails it has, the more powerful it is.
Of course, a fox demon can only have a maximum of nine tails, which is the legendary nine-tailed fox. Legend has it that Daji was a nine-tailed fox, but whether that's true or not is unknown.
A fox demon's tail represents its strength; the more tails a fox demon has, the stronger it becomes. Conversely, if a fox demon loses a tail, its abilities will decrease.
However, the fox demon's tail is a powerful weapon, and it cannot be destroyed by ordinary magical artifacts.
This is why the fox demon dared to openly use his tail as a weapon; Su Chen knew that Liu Xiaoyuan didn't have the ability to cut off his tail.
Seeing Liu Xiaoyuan retreat dozens of meters, Su Chen snorted coldly and flew towards Liu Xiaoyuan. His three tails flew towards Liu Xiaoyuan in the air, becoming longer and faster!
Liu Xiaoyuan naturally wouldn't just defend; he immediately urged his Flying Cloud Sword to slash at the fox demon's middle tail.
When Su Chen saw the Flying Cloud Sword flying towards him, a cold smile appeared on his face, because he didn't take the Flying Cloud Sword seriously at all.
However, Su Chen's tail did not dodge at all, because in Su Chen's opinion, Liu Xiaoyuan, a cultivator in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, could not hurt his tail in the slightest.
The Flying Cloud Sword struck Su Chen's tail, and with a clang, the sword was sent flying by Su Chen's middle tail.
"Kid, you think you can hurt my tail, you're just delusional," Su Chen laughed.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately recalled the Flying Cloud Sword that had flown out, put it in his hand, and then stepped back.
Now it seems that with his late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, Su Chen could kill him with just a fox tail.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan had no choice but to summon a cultivator in the late stage of the Golden Core realm.
Su Chen immediately sensed something was wrong. Upon closer inspection, he saw that Liu Xiaoyuan had jumped from the late Foundation Establishment stage to the late Golden Core stage.
"Kid, you've been hiding your strength?" Su Chen said in surprise.
Facing a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, Su Chen felt no pressure whatsoever, as dealing with a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator was a complete crushing defeat.
However, if he were facing a cultivator in the late Golden Core stage, Su Chen would not dare to be careless, since the two were at the same level in terms of cultivation.
However, Su Chen only had a tiny bit of worry, because as a member of the fox demon clan, he possessed a powerful magical artifact: his own tail.
Among fox demons, their own tails are powerful magical weapons, even more powerful than ordinary magical weapons.
After his cultivation level reached the late Golden Core stage, Liu Xiaoyuan once again urged the Flying Cloud Sword to slash at the fox demon's tail.
With his improved cultivation, the Flying Cloud Sword's momentum increased dramatically when it struck again, as if a celestial sword had descended from the heavens, its power unmatched and sharp, seemingly capable of killing gods and Buddhas alike.
Faced with this sword strike from a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, Su Chen dared not be careless and was no longer as nonchalant as before.
"Rise!" Su Chen shouted, and his three tails immediately burst forth with golden light, which was very dazzling.
Golden light enveloped the three tails, acting like a protective layer around them.
With a loud clang, the Flying Cloud Sword struck Su Chen's middle tail, and the golden light covering the tail immediately vanished without a trace.
"You're asking for death!" After Su Chen's tail was struck by the Flying Cloud Sword, he gasped, and a sharp pain immediately shot through his tail.
Although Liu Xiaoyuan's sword strike didn't sever Su Chen's tail, it still caused Su Chen a lot of trouble. For a late-stage Golden Core cultivator to fail to achieve even this effect with a powerful strike would be too embarrassing.
However, Liu Xiaoyuan also realized from this attack that in order to deal with Su Chen, his status as a late-stage Golden Core cultivator was definitely not enough; he would also need a magic weapon that was even more powerful than the Flying Cloud Sword.
Liu Xiaoyuan originally wanted to use the magic weapon of the summoned cultivator, but then he thought, why not try the effect of the jade flute? After all, the jade flute is a high-level spiritual artifact.
After taking the jade flute into his hand, Liu Xiaoyuan still didn't know whether it was an offensive magic weapon or not.
However, even if the jade flute wasn't an offensive magic weapon, Liu Xiaoyuan wasn't worried, because he had personally witnessed its defensive capabilities.
"Kid, you're resorting to playing the flute just because you can't win?" Su Chen said sarcastically when he saw Liu Xiaoyuan take out the jade flute.
Without wasting any words, Liu Xiaoyuan directly infused his spiritual energy into the jade flute, and in an instant, the jade flute emitted a melodious sound, which Liu Xiaoyuan considered to be heavenly music.
However, the sound of the flute was absolutely piercing to Su Chen and Su Yu, as if it were going to puncture their eardrums, making them extremely uncomfortable.
When Liu Xiaoyuan saw Su Chen covering his ears with his hands, he immediately knew that the flute music posed a great threat to Su Chen.
Liu Xiaoyuan turned his head and saw Su Yu clutching her head in pain. Liu Xiaoyuan immediately tried to activate the jade flute to reduce the harm to Su Yu.
This jade flute truly lives up to its reputation as a high-grade spiritual artifact. As soon as Liu Xiaoyuan had a thought, Su Yu could no longer hear the harsh sound; instead, it was replaced by heavenly music.
Su Yu glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan and knew that it must have been Liu Xiaoyuan who had rescued her.
When Liu Xiaoyuan saw Su Chen covering his ears, he urged his jade flute to strike Su Chen's tail.
This jade flute can not only play melodies, but it can also be used as a weapon, making it a rare and precious magical treasure!
The flute music had affected Su Chen's mind, causing him considerable pain. Therefore, when the jade flute struck Su Chen's middle tail, he didn't even realize what was happening.
"Ah!" Su Chen immediately let out a scream, a scream so terrible it echoed throughout the mountains.
Because of the jade flute's impact, Su Chen's tail was broken off.
However, Liu Xiaoyuan was also feeling bad. Using that move had caused him to lose a lot of spiritual energy in his dantian, leaving him feeling somewhat drained.
"Kid, I'll be back for revenge!" Su Chen roared, then turned into a beam of light and disappeared from Liu Xiaoyuan's sight.
