Chapter 809 - 899 I’m back.
The High Priest’s words brought a hush over the entire hall.
Since the previous Spirit Fox King perished during the Crossing of the Immortal Tribulation, a traitor took the opportunity to seize power, resulting in the disappearance of their Spirit Fox Race’s princess, her whereabouts unknown.
As a result, the Spirit Fox Race was leaderless, causing their power to be continually eroded by the Dragon and Phoenix Races.
Although they could choose a royal fox from the direct lineage to become the Fox King,
the direct lineage suffered heavy losses during the last power seizure by the traitor, and the remaining royal foxes were not strong enough to assume the important role.
But now, their king had finally appeared.
Moreover, she possessed the Divine Fox Sacred Body.
This meant she inherited the physique of their ancestors.
Additionally, they discovered she was the daughter of the old Fox King, the little princess.
Because the remaining direct lineage was all in Qingqiu, only the missing little princess remained outside.
This little Jiuxi must be the little princess.
The future king of the Spirit Fox Race had become the servant of a human.
In a certain sense, it was equivalent to the entire Spirit Fox Race becoming servants of humans, a decision that could not be permitted.
"I am willing to go to the Luotian Domain, to kill the human who has defiled our race and bring back the little princess," a Qingqiu fox spoke.
"Bringing back the little princess is easy, but that human has been identified with the Three Immortal Body, and will definitely be cultivated intensively by the Daoist Alliance. Killing him won’t be so easy," a red fox with a captivating voice said.
"Ling Mei is right. I heard that because of that human, even the three old monsters of the Daoist Alliance were stirred. Those three old monsters could become immortals at any time. If we provoke them, it wouldn’t be a good thing for our Qingqiu," said a male red fox beside Ling Mei.
"Are we just going to let the little princess roam in the outside world?" a white fox with a scar at the corner of its eye glared at the two Qingqiu foxes.
"I didn’t say not to bring back the little princess. But as for killing that human, it needs careful consideration," the male red fox replied.
"Ling Gang, what do you mean by this? If we don’t kill that human, how can we restore the honor of our Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race? We can only cleanse this shame by killing him," said the white fox with the scar.
"Easier said than done. How to kill? Rushing into the Luotian Domain, can you even enter Eight Trigrams City? You might be suppressed by the Tai Chi Diagram as soon as you arrive there. That is an Innate Spiritual Treasure, even the ancestors would have to avoid it," the male red fox called Ling Gang said coldly.
"Did I say to go directly into Eight Trigrams City? Can’t we wait for him to come out?"
"Do you think they’re stupid? Even if he leaves Eight Trigrams City, does he have no guardians by his side? Do you think the high ranks of the Daoist Alliance have pig brains like yours?"
"Ling Gang, say that again if you dare." The white fox with the scar surged True Qi around it.
"Not just once, even a hundred times, I still mean the same."
"Looking for a fight." The white fox with the scar just started to explode when the High Priest sternly rebuked, "Mu Ze."
A formidable pressure emanated from the High Priest’s body.
Mu Ze was immediately suppressed.
Ling Gang was laughing secretly but was also scolded by the High Priest.
The High Priest turned his gaze to the Qingqiu fox who first spoke, "Qing Song, what do you think?"
The Qingqiu fox named Qing Song thought for a moment, "Perhaps we could ally with the Dragon and Phoenix Races. No matter how strong the Daoist Alliance is, it’s not the Daoism of old; it cannot suppress our three races. That human is also cultivating the True Dragon Treasure Skill, the Dragon Race certainly won’t sit idly by. And the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow has ties with both the Dragon and Phoenix Races..."
The High Priest’s eyes flickered slightly, "Qing Song, my thoughts align with yours..."
Saying this, he looked at Ling Gang and Mu Ze, "You both shall go to the Dragon and Phoenix Races to negotiate a cooperation."
"Yes, High Priest."
...
Meanwhile, on Chen Mo’s side, as all the True Qi within him transformed into Primordial True Qi, and his Nascent Soul was also remodeled,
he realized that this Primordial True Qi enhanced the Fighting Saint Body, the Red Dragon Demon Arm, and even the Ancient Heavy Pupils.
When he infused the Primordial True Qi into his Ancient Heavy Pupils, he discovered that their analytical ability and Power of Origin had all become stronger.
He also experimented with the Taiyi Divine Fire.
When the Primordial True Qi was injected into the Taiyi Divine Fire, it became even hotter, so hot that it distorted the air.
This discovery made Chen Mo extremely excited.
It meant that his power could grow stronger even without advancing his realm.
...
After remodeling his Nascent Soul, Chen Mo started preparing for his return to the Canglan Continent.
Before going back, Chen Mo went to Pill Island and asked an Elder to craft some longevity-extending elixirs and a Youthful Appearance Pill.
Among the women he was acquainted with in the Canglan Continent, like Chun Ling, Xia Ling, Xu Miaozhen, Ye Wanqiu, Consort Yu, they were all ordinary people.
Their lifespans were short, and their youthful looks wouldn’t last long.
Therefore, these elixirs were essential.
There were also miracle elixirs that could enhance cultivation in the Qi Cultivation Realm.
Besides that, a high-level Spiritual Boat was also indispensable.
After all, to traverse the Sea of Nothingness, he couldn’t always trouble Sister Yiren.
Teleporting so many people was also a significant burden on her.
Additionally, he needed to prepare gifts for the women.
Having not seen them for several years, not preparing gifts would certainly make them overthink.
Once preparations were complete, Chen Mo informed Zuoqiu Yiren of his plans.
After Zuoqiu Yiren reported, it wasn’t long before she said, "Alright, but the Daoist Alliance insists that I go with you."
Chen Mo nodded. Given the trouble he had stirred up, without the protection of an expert like Sister Yiren, leaving the Daoist Alliance would likely mean he could never return.
Having left the Daoist Alliance,
Chen Mo first sought out Nangong Xue and her group.
In the half month of seclusion, Nangong Xue successfully advanced to the Golden Core Realm.
She would attempt to register for the next Daoist Alliance examination.
Chen Mo first sent the Nangong sisters to the Shenxiao Sect.
Since they were not Daoist Alliance disciples, staying in Eight Trigrams City was less beneficial than cultivating in the Shenxiao Sect.
Zhao Fujin came out from seclusion.
She had broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm.
In under ten years, she advanced from the Qi Refining Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm; this cultivation speed was truly extraordinary.
Chen Mo informed her about bringing over his acquaintances from the Canglan Continent.
Zhao Fujin expressed her desire to join him on the journey.
Zhao Qianyi and Jiang Ruoqing opted to remain, expressing that meeting again after he brings them to the Shenxiao Sect would be the same.
Besides, with their weaker strength, following him might do more harm than good, potentially becoming a burden.
Ultimately, Chen Mo, Zuoqiu Yiren, Zhao Fujin, and Little Jiuxi set off aboard the Spiritual Boat, heading towards the Canglan Continent.
"Yunxi, after five years, I’ve returned."
...
In the meantime, the Spirit Foxes of Qingqiu, the Dragon Race, and the Phoenix Race forged a cooperation, dispatching experts jointly to the territories of the Human Race.
