358: The situation within Illusionary Mist Mountain: The crisis facing the White Fox clan.
The summit of Huanwu Mountain.
The ancestral land of the White Fox Clan.
Rows of simple wooden houses were arranged neatly, forming a complex Formation. The surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was extremely dense, with complex spiritual runes faintly flickering. A large number of precious Spiritual Plants were planted between the wooden houses.
In this place that used to be filled with laughter and joy, an atmosphere of fear and dread had recently descended.
Inside the wooden house at the very center of the White Fox Clan's ancestral land.
Several beautiful women in white sat on chairs, their faces all showing expressions of anxiety.
One young girl sat in the very center. She wore a plain white dress that outlined her slender and moving figure. Her skin was like ice and her bones like jade, and her snow-white hair flowed like a waterfall. She exuded a charming and moving temperament, her every frown and smile captivating the soul.
Behind her were six tails as white as translucent jade, which were currently swirling around her.
She was Leng Xirou, who had become the Young Clan Chief of the White Fox Clan after finding them.
“Young Clan Chief, what should we do?
The two Elders and the Clan Chief probably won't be able to hold on much longer!”
“Yes, Huanwu Mountain is now surrounded by demonic Cultivators from the Mo Yan Sect; we have no way to escape even if we wanted to.”
“Can it be that our White Fox Clan cannot escape the fate of being destroyed?”
...After the few fox women finished speaking, their expressions were dejected. They seemed to be thinking of their tragic future and felt very uneasy, their fox tails drooping powerlessly to the ground.
If they were truly captured by the demonic Cultivators of the Mo Yan Sect...
Then their end could well be imagined; they would certainly not escape the fate of becoming Cauldrons.
To think that as descendants of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan, the great Yao Race powerhouses of the ancient era, they had now fallen to such a state.
“Rest assured, everyone, we will not lose. I will find a way!
Our White Fox Clan will not perish here!
Go and take refuge in the caves deep within the summit of Huanwu Mountain first!”
Leng Xirou stood up and looked at the frightened clansmen around her with her beautiful eyes, comforting them softly.
In truth, she had no confidence either. If she were given more time, she certainly wouldn't be as helpless as she was now.
As a former Eight-Tailed Celestial Fox at the fifth layer of the tribulation crossing realm, she had encountered almost no Bottlenecks after her Reincarnation and re-cultivation. Thus, she had reached the Soul Emergence Realm in less than a year.
If given a few more years, she would soon be able to break through to the Body Integration or even the Enlightenment Realm.
After all, as a Tribulation Crossing Realm Cultivator who had once comprehended Laws, re-comprehending them now would be effortless.
Unfortunately, there was no time.
Currently, the White Fox Clan did not have many experts. The strongest was a Three-Tailed White Fox at the Third Layer of the Enlightenment Realm, who was also the current Clan Chief.
The remaining experts were two Two-Tailed White Foxes at the first layer of the Enlightenment Realm.
The rest were all White Foxes at the Body Integration and Soul Emergence realms. Basically, very few of them had bloodline reversion.
Too many experts had died when the White Fox Clan fled from the Myriad Demon Domain. Had it not been for the half-immortal artifact, the illusory fox mirror, the White Fox Clan would have been wiped out long ago.
After the few clansmen went to take refuge.
Leng Xirou walked out of the house somewhat blankly, looking at the calm summit of Huanwu Mountain, feeling a bit at a loss.
With her current strength, she couldn't help; she was unable to activate the half-immortal artifact.
So she could only wait here in anxious frustration.
“Su Yun, it seems I will never see you again!”
Leng Xirou looked toward the Central Domain and touched the fox heart imprint on the back of her jade-like hand, murmuring to herself.
She had initially thought of asking Su Yun for help.
But she later abandoned the idea.
The White Fox Clan lived in seclusion within Huanwu Mountain, so they rarely went to the outside world.
She was also unclear about Su Yun's current situation.
However, with Su Yun's formidable talent, he should at least be at the Spirit Transformation Realm by now, right?
Spirit Transformation Realm strength could easily deal with ordinary demonic Sects, but against the Mo Yan Sect, he probably couldn't even defeat an ordinary Deacon.
Furthermore, Su Yun was only a Personal Disciple of the Taixuan Holy Land. It was impossible for him to convince the powerhouses of the Taixuan Holy Land to take action. After all, the Eastern Region was now the territory of demonic Cultivators, with many demonic Sect experts in the Enlightenment and Tribulation Crossing Realms.
The Elders of the Taixuan Holy Land would not risk their lives for the sake of a single Personal Disciple's affairs.
Moreover, they were the Yao Race, and many of the Human Race were hostile toward them, so the possibility of rescue was even lower.
At this moment, several young fox girls saw Leng Xirou appear and crowded around her, asking in worried tones:
“Sister Xi Rou, will we be captured by the demonic Cultivators?”
“Yes, I heard that demonic Cultivators are very cruel. Doesn't that mean we're finished?”
“Waaah! I still wanted to meet Sister Xi Rou's human Dao Companion!
It looks like there's no chance now!”
...One of the fox girls at the Golden Core Realm began to cry, and the eyes of the others also turned slightly red, filled with panic.
Leng Xirou gently stroked the heads of the fox girls, her voice full of determination:
“Don't worry, we will work hard to resist those demonic Cultivators. Even if we can't win, we will make sure you escape safely!
Go hide in the caves deep within the summit of Huanwu Mountain first. There are defensive Formations there, so it's safer.
Don't stay here any longer; this place might become a battlefield soon.”
“Okay, then Sister Xi Rou, you must be careful!”
The few white fox girls obediently followed Leng Xirou's instructions and hurried toward the caves deep within the summit of Huanwu Mountain.
“Su Yun, goodbye.”
Leng Xirou took one last look at the fox heart imprint on the back of her hand, then hurried toward the mountainside of Huanwu Mountain.
All the experts of the White Fox Clan were there now, and she wanted to do her part as well.
She had originally wanted to say goodbye to Su Yun through the fox heart imprint, but unfortunately, the Eastern Region was sealed off by a powerful Formation, making it impossible to send a message to Su Yun through the imprint.
Leng Xirou's figure flickered, turning into a white streak of light, and she soon arrived at the mountainside of Huanwu Mountain.
At this time, the three Enlightenment Realm experts of the White Fox Clan were all here, working with other White Fox clansmen to form a Formation and activate a mirror that was crystal clear throughout.
This mirror was the Legacy treasure of their Fox Clan, the illusory fox mirror.
The illusory fox mirror could release powerful illusions and a Spiritual Energy Barrier, and it had a fairly large space inside, though it didn't have much offensive capability.
“Xi Rou, why are you here? Go back quickly and take refuge with the other clansmen!”
The current Clan Chief of the White Fox Clan, Leng Xuan, frowned slightly and spoke with some anxiety.
She had already told Leng Xirou to take refuge, so why had Leng Xirou come back now?
Leng Xirou was a White Fox with bloodline reversion who could become a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox in the future. She was the hope of their White Fox Clan and could not die here.
“Aunt Xuan, as the Young Clan Chief of the White Fox Clan, how could I flee before the battle?
I will maintain the Spiritual Energy Barrier released by the illusory fox mirror with all of you!”
After Leng Xirou finished speaking, she entered the Formation and began releasing spiritual energy into the illusory fox mirror along with the other clansmen.
Leng Xuan didn't say anything more, only letting out a soft sigh.
She looked at the two White Fox Elders.
Their eyes met, as if they had made a certain decision.
