Chapter 43: Nine-Tailed Fox

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

That experience of his primordial soul leaving his body deepened his understanding of Dao and also killed the Northwest Gun King.

Li Qingshan stood up and stretched.

He did not take the death of the Northwest Gun King to heart.

Since he had broken through the Ninth Heaven Great Venerable, Li Qingshan knew his power. In this world, he was invincible if no Saints appeared.

The experience earlier when his primordial spirit left his body, traveled 3,000 miles, and killed the Northwest Gun King was the best proof.

“The current Human world is like a small pond. It's meaningless to dominate the pond. Turn the pond into a lake, and then turn the lake into an ocean. By then, I may feel accomplished when I dominate the ocean.” Li Qingshan looked at the burnt incense and said calmly.

The Repentance Cliff seemed a little cold and quiet at night.

Li Qingshan wanted to continue cultivating, but suddenly, he heard a painful wail. He frowned and immediately locked his eyes on the small wooden hut opposite the bamboo hut.

“Little Fox!” Li Qingshan's expression changed. His body transformed like a shadow and instantly arrived before the small wooden house.

Boom!

The small wooden house exploded. The snow-white Little Fox lay on the ground. Its energy had gone out of control. It was wailing in pain, and its body was surrounded by a faint light, like a bright white jade plate.

Li Qingshan was about to get close, but he was rebounded by the energy of the Little Fox.

He could approach it again and disperse the energy, but it would hurt the Little Fox.

Li Qingshan did not approach the Little Fox rashly. Instead, he observed the Little Fox carefully.

“This is the start of bloodline awakening after absorbing its mother's energy.” After careful observation, Li Qingshan found that the Little Fox's painful wails were not because of any mistakes in its cultivation but because its originally suppressed talent was revealing.

It had been more than 40 years from the Little Fox's conception to birth.

It had all spent all that time in the Monster Refining Tower.

The Monster Refining Tower was dangerous and cruel. It was the most painful memory for the Little Fox.

Its mother had transferred all its cultivation into the Little Fox to protect it.

That protected the Little Fox very well but also suppressed its original talent.

It had been four years since the Little Fox was born. After absorbing the energy that its mother had instilled into it, the Little Fox's original talent could no longer be suppressed.

It began to transform that night.

The faint light expanded continuously, illuminating the surroundings.

In the faint light, Li Qingshan saw the fox's tail.

One, two, three tails.

A tail would appear in the faint light each time the Little Fox wailed in pain.

The fox's tail was humongous and emitted a bright light. It did not smell like ordinary monsters. Instead, it emitted the fragrance of myriad flowers.

“How many tails will Little Fox have?” Li Qingshan guarded the Little Fox and guessed silently.

The Little Fox's transformation was far from over. Its voice was already hoarse. Each tail's revelation was an exhaust of its energy.

In the end, the Little Fox screamed and fainted.

Nine fox tails swayed in the faint light, making the Little Fox's thin body look incomparably huge.

“Nine tails, it's actually nine tails.” Li Qingshan said in surprise. He looked at the Little Fox and didn't expect that at all.

Li Qingshan had read the books. The Nine-Tailed Fox was the most powerful race among the Fox Race. It was comparable to an Innate Divine Beast but had always been rare.

Even the Little Fox's mother was only a Three-Tailed Fox.

But she gave birth to a Nine-Tailed Fox.

It was unbelievable.

However, Li Qingshan was only surprised for a moment. He quickly concealed the powerful demonic power that burst when the Little Fox revealed its nine tails. Then, he picked up the Little Fox and wanted to return to the bamboo hut.

The faint light slowly faded after Li Qingshan picked up the Little Fox. The nine tails also disappeared and entered the Little Fox's body.

Li Qingshan brought the unconscious Little Fox back to the bamboo hut. He used his True Qi to nourish the Little Fox's body and lit incense so that it could have a good sleep.

At the same time, countless foxes on a huge green mountain were alarmed.

The ancestral tablets of the Fox Race were illuminated again after a thousand years.

Regardless of powerful or weak demons, the entire Fox Race rushed to the ancestral tablets.

Then, they witnessed a shocking scene.

The ancestral tablets suddenly shook and projected a light screen. On the light screen, they could see the scene of the Little Fox awakening its Nine-Tailed ability.

Under the broken wooden house, the Little Fox's young body trembled and let out a miserable cry. Every time it screamed, a huge tail would grow on its back.

After nine screams, nine tails that blotted out the sky were wagging.

The Little Fox fell unconscious.

Then, the scene stopped abruptly.

However, that scene was enough. The entire Fox Race was in an uproar.

Everyone was extremely excited, from the elders at Peak Great Venerable to the younger foxes that were just born and slightly more sensible.

“After so many years, our Fox Race has finally produced another Nine-Tailed.

Haha Haha.” The elder of the Fox Race laughed excitedly.

“This is the Heavens blessing the Monster Clan, our Fox Race.”

“Search for the Nine-Tailed immediately. Find it at all costs. Welcome it back to the clan to become our Saintess to lead our Fox Race to the pinnacle.” The leader of the Fox Race announced loudly.

The other clansmen all acted excitedly.

Following that, the news of the Fox Race giving birth to a Nine-Tailed quickly spread.

Both the Human Race and Monster Clan received the news.

The cultivation world was also in an uproar. Everyone was actively discussing

the power and terror of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Some people were worried that the birth of the Nine-Tailed in the Monster Clan would cause the Monster Clan to overpower the Human Race.

In short, Little Fox's subconscious talent awakening had shaken the cultivation world.

But it didn't know about any of that.

It was still sleeping comfortably on Li Qingshan's bed.

The Little Fox, which had used all its energy and cultivation to awaken, did not feel tired.

Because Li Qingshan had used his True Qi to relieve the Little Fox's fatigue the previous night. After a night of hard work, the Little Fox had recovered.

In the morning, the Little Fox opened its eyes and looked at the unfamiliar room in confusion.

Wasn't it in the wooden hut?

And it seemed to be in great pain the previous night?

What exactly happened?

After the Little Fox got over her confusion, she looked around and realized it was Li Qingshan's bamboo hut.

Just then, Li Qingshan opened the door and entered, holding the Myriad Dew he had just collected.

“Since you've woken up, drink this.” Li Qingshan handed the Myriad Dew to the Little Fox.

The Little Fox held it with both hands and asked adorably, “What happened last night?”

“Don't you remember?” Li Qingshan asked.

“Headache. My head hurts whenever I think about it, so I don't want to think.” The Little Fox answered straightforwardly.

“You awakened your talent last night. Nine-Tailed Fox. Not bad.” Li Qingshan said casually.

He was not as shocked as the outsiders when they heard about the Nine-Tailed Fox.

“Oh, but awakening is so painful. Being a Nine-Tailed Fox is just an addition of a few more tails. It's not very useful.” Little Nine said casually. It didn't care about being the Nine-Tailed Fox at all. It was thinking more about the pain from the previous night.

“Stay at my place for two nights. I'll help you recuperate.” Li Qingshan said.

The Little Fox did not refuse and obediently drank the Myriad Dew.

Just like that, Li Qingshan and the Little Fox dismissed the Nine-Tailed that shook the Fox Race in a few words.

After drinking the Myriad Dew, Li Qingshan continued cultivating and comprehending the Dao. The Little Fox burrowed into Li Qingshan's arms and closed its eyes to feel its talent and inheritance.

After being saved by Li Qingshan the previous night, the Little Fox became

more dependent on him. It no longer had the hostility and hatred from before.

Li Qingshan smiled gently and stroked the Little Fox's fur, letting it sleep soundly in his arms.

He continued to cultivate.

When the sun was high in the sky, Li Qingshan stopped his cultivation and looked at the entrance of the Repentance Cliff.

Little Nine, who hadn't visited for three months, came.

She had a graceful figure and a beautiful face, and she was carrying a few bottles of wine. After three months, her aura became steady, and she seemed to be on the verge of breaking through the Distant Shore Plane and entering the Venerable Plane.

In Li Qingshan's eyes, Little Nine's breakthrough was just around the corner.

By then, she would be the youngest Venerable Plane expert of Yuhua Sect.

That was mainly because of Little Nine's talent, the Immortality method, and the results of Yuhua Sect's full nurturing.

“Brother, we haven't seen each other for three months. Did you miss me?” Little Nine carried the wine to the bamboo hut, shouting mischievously and cutely.

“Open the door and come in.” Li Qingshan lay on the rocking chair without moving. The Little Fox in his arms had already fallen asleep.

Little Nine came in and put the wine aside. Then, it looked at Li Qingshan and the sleeping Little Fox. Subconsciously, she lowered her voice and said in surprise, “Brother, this Little Fox is too beautiful. I can tell at a glance that it's different from other foxes. Why is it willing to stay at the Repentance Cliff and follow you

Little Nine didn't understand.

Although the Repentance Cliff was good and away from worldly affairs, one would get very lonely after staying for a long time.

Could it be that the snow-white Little Fox had the same personality as her brother, the kind that lived in seclusion?

“It's because of the Little Fox that I won't feel lonely even if you don't come for three months.” Li Qingshan said with a smile.

Little Nine pouted. She sat down and said, “Brother, do you know that something big has happened in front of Yuhua Mountain recently?”

Li Qingshan, who was lying in the rocking chair, instantly knew what Little Nine was talking about.

Wasn't it about the Northwest Gun King?

Someone would definitely discover the scene of the battle in the daytime.

The scene was too dangerous. Li Qingshan had turned the area within a ten-mile radius into a large canyon. The Northwest Gun King had fallen silently. If his spear had not been discovered, everyone would still be confused.

Although he knew, Li Qingshan pretended to be confused. He asked Little Nine, “What is it?”

“The Northwest Gun King died in the territory of our Yuhua Sect. He should have come yesterday. Now, the outside world is saying that it was a hidden expert of our Yuhua Sect who killed the Northwest Gun King.” Little Nine said.

Sir Li nodded slightly but did not express any opinion on that matter.

After all, he knew very well about the death of the Northwest Gun King.

Little Nine was like a lark, telling Li Qingshan all the information Yuhua Sect had gotten hold of.

Li Qingshan smiled and brewed a pot of tea for Little Nine. Then, he basked in the sun and listened to Little Nine talk nonsense. From time to time, he would give his opinions.

Before Little Nine left, she said, “Brother, I feel like I'm about to break through the Venerable Plane soon. The next time I see you, I'll definitely be a Venerable.”

Li Qingshan smiled and waved his hand, “I wish you a smooth breakthrough!”

Just then, the Little Fox woke up from Li Qingshan's arms. It stuck its head out and waved like he did.. It then shouted in a childlike voice, “Goodbye!”
