There are no mountains on the vast and flat wasteland, only some small ponds with potholes.
Luo Jianqing held the sword in his right hand, his brow furrowed as he surveyed his surroundings. Sharp animal roars echoed from all directions, following Luo Jianqing like a ghost. A purple phantom formed into a mist, moving so fast that Luo Jianqing couldn't see its appearance clearly, but he could still guess who the beast was.
The sixth-level monster, the phantom fox!
The fox clan has always been intelligent, and there are many foxes at the fifth or sixth level who can speak human language.
"Young Master, please give me a smile."
"You human, why are you still holding that sword? It makes me panic."
"Why don't you just follow me? I can spare your life."
The silver bell-like laughter echoed between heaven and earth, and the sound waves were like weapons, piercing Luo Jianqing's ears fiercely.
"Green Lotus Sword Heart Technique!"
Luo Jianqing kept changing his hand gestures, and the Frost Floating Sword slowly flew up, transforming into four sharp swords, protecting Luo Jianqing. The four identical swords trembled in the air, forming a green barrier. Every mental attack from the demon fox collided with this green barrier.
The cyan light curtain trembled constantly. The first attack was already a struggle to resist, and by the second, it was already teetering on the verge of collapse. Luo Jianqing's eyes flashed, and he took out the Spirit Gathering Pills and swallowed ten at once. Instantly, his spiritual power surged, and the light curtain grew even stronger.
At the same time, Luo Jianqing looked around vigilantly, trying to find the other party's trace.
"My dear, if you don't obey me, I will be heartbroken."
A purple figure slowly took shape and appeared in front of Luo Jianqing.
It was a purple fox, as tall as a man, its enormous purple tail swaying constantly behind it. It hadn't yet transformed, but the allure in its eyes was already overflowing. Those eyes were fixed on Luo Jianqing's face, their naked gaze sweeping across his body as if stripping his clothes off.
"You humans are so stubborn. If that's the case..." Every word was a powerful mental attack. Luo Jianqing was horrified to find that even if the other party showed up, he couldn't attack and could only passively defend. But the fox covered its mouth and laughed, "If that's the case, then... just give me this skin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the fox demon suddenly turned into a purple light and rushed towards Luo Jianqing.
Luo Jianqing raised his phoenix eyes, a smile appeared on his lips, and the four swords turned into a Frost Floating Sword, appearing in his right hand.
"The sword draws thunder!"
Silver lightning rumbled down from the sky. The thousand-year-old thunder crystal contained in the Frost Floating Sword attracted all the power of thunder and lightning between heaven and earth. Luo Jianqing swiped his right hand, and the thunder blasted towards the Phantom Fox.
The fox demon was also stunned, and took it hastily, getting slightly injured.
"You little brat, if you don't accept my toast, you'll be punished!"
A demonic light flashed in the fox's eyes, and its purple tail suddenly grew larger, stabbing at Luo Jianqing in an instant.
The silver sword and the purple tail kept colliding and fighting in the air. Luo Jianqing struggled to face the opponent's tail attack. The tail formed a dense offensive in the air, leaving him no time to deal with it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The demon fox didn't seem to be good at spiritual attacks. Although it had reached the Nascent Soul stage, its actual strength was comparable to Luo Jianqing's. The two fought for a full half hour. Luo Jianqing had almost consumed an entire bottle of Gathering Spirit Pills. Just as he swallowed the last pill, the demon fox's tail suddenly swung, and the tip of the tail stabbed straight at him!
In a flash, a golden sword light appeared from behind Luo Jianqing.
The fox's tail was instantly cut in half. It wailed in embarrassment, but before it could move, a golden light flashed, and the fox was completely cut in two. A round white inner pill rolled out of its body.
Luo Jianqing froze and stood there in disbelief.
Only to hear a calm voice from behind him: "Jianqing."
After a while, Luo Jianqing slowly turned around and finally saw the man.
He was dressed in white, his features cold and serene. Between his brows was an eight-petaled golden lotus sword pattern. Even in such a remote place, his aura remained pure and untainted by the dust. He gazed down at her, then slowly extended his hand toward her, his tone tinged with urgency: "Jianqing, I'm almost late."
Luo Jianqing couldn't help but put his hand on it.
The icy temperature was exactly the same as in my memory.
Luo Jianqing murmured: "Master..."
Xuan Lingzi looked at his disciple calmly, then curled up the corners of his lips in a faint smile. He said, "I'm glad you're okay. That demon fox was at the Nascent Soul stage, and you're far inferior to it. If I had arrived a little later, you might have been killed."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Lingzi exerted force with his hands and pulled Luo Jianqing into his arms.
A cool breath like a lotus suddenly filled his nose. Luo Jianqing felt the embrace in a daze, only to hear the other person whispering softly in his ear: "Jianqing, if anything happens to you, what should I do?"
Luo Jianqing's fingers trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but hug the man. He greedily sucked in the familiar scent in his embrace, and heard the man whisper, "This relic is very unusual. Today, Master will take you out. When the people from Taihua Mountain come to carefully examine it, we will know what is wrong with this relic. Jianqing, Master will not allow you to do such dangerous things again. From now on, you will stay on Taihua Mountain and concentrate on your cultivation. In this way... um... you..."
