Just as the surging fog rose and Dao Magic swept in, about to tear Qinchuan to pieces—
Qinchuan moved. He extended his palm, and a golden glimr overflowed from his palm center, gently covering the raging waves.
Then,
Under Ji Huo'er's astonished gaze, the killing aura within the Killing Formation that had once surged now beca incredibly quiet and docile at the touch of the Divine Soul Path emanating from Qinchuan's palm. One mont it was tumultuous waves, wild and surging; the next it was a gentle, trickling stream, as if a fierce beast had recognized its master.
"How is this possible?"
Ji Huo'er was horrified, her gaze towards Qinchuan now filled with even more shock.
This Killing Formation had been personally laid down by the ancestors. This was rely the first Great Formation. To activate this formation, anyone below the Holy's Realm would be slain by the formation's power if not led by a powerful Saint, even a mber of the Fox Clan was no exception.
But how could Qinchuan possibly control the Killing Formation?
Regardless of how heaven-defying Qinchuan had seed before, knowledgeable in all things, Ji Huo'er was rely astounded, but now she felt sowhat terrified and apprehensive.
For Qinchuan to stand unhard in the Killing Formation ant only one thing; his Cultivation Level had long surpassed the Holy's Realm.
To conceal one's own Qi and deceive both herself, her senior sister, as well as the two Saints of her uncles, just how terrifying was Qinchuan's Cultivation Level?
Thinking this, Ji Huo'er pursed her lips and stamred,
"Big brother, you... you... you're not really that big bad guy Chunyu Xiu, are you?"
Qinchuan clearly understood what was on her mind and wished he could knock so sense into her head, frustrated at her lack of insight, "What are you thinking? If I had cultivated an Evil Technique, I would have taken you two girls long ago! No wonder Xian'er always says you're not smart!"
"Ah, is that so!" Ji Huo'er blinked her big eyes, which sparkled as her mind finally caught up, "I just felt big brother wasn't a bad person."
"What are you standing around for? Let's go. If we're any later and your Supre Elders find they can't open the stone gate with the Blood Lotus, and they try to force their way through, your lives will be in danger," Qinchuan said, standing unhard in the Killing Formation, urging Ji Huo'er.
"Oh oh, coming!" only then did Ji Huo'er snap out of it and hurriedly followed.
It had been hundreds of thousands of years since Yu Xu'er founded Thousand Fox Mountain.
A hundred thousand years, where the mundane world would have undergone drastic changes, was but a fleeting mont in the long river of ti for a Cultivation Sect—nothing had changed. The willow tree planted by Qinchuan's own hands still stood gracefully, draping over the mountain gate's end.
After passing through the Killing Formation, there were several more formations. Qinchuan led Ji Huo'er through the Great Formations with ease, unhard and as if on familiar ground.
Watching Qinchuan move through the Great Formations as if strolling into his own garden, Ji Huo'er was initially shocked, then got used to it, and eventually beca numb to it.
If Qinchuan claid he could open the Thousand Fox Cave, she wouldn't have doubted him for a second.
Qinchuan didn't take the usual path, but instead headed directly towards the Thousand Fox Cave.
Once the two had passed through a golden gate, their figures flashed and appeared beneath a huge cliff.
This boundless cliff was riddled with various caverns large and small, packed densely together. Although it was called the Thousand Fox Cave, the number of caves was far more than a re thousand.
Below Thousand Fox Cave, several alluringly shaped won were intently staring at those caves, their minds and spirits focused, unaware of Qinchuan and another's approach.
And in the middle of them, there was a round altar made of bluestone, on which stood a woman in white, holding a Blood Lotus in her hands and reciting a spell.
"Quit wasting your energy; you can't open it!"
The Sect Leader of Thousand Fox Mountain, the Supre Elder, and another elder were all intently waiting for the opening of Thousand Fox Cave when suddenly, a crisp male voice sounded.
The won of Thousand Fox Mountain were greatly startled, their gazes swiftly turning in unison to look over.
Imdiately after, two fierce voices sounded at the sa ti.
"Who are you, daring to intrude upon Fox Mountain?"
"How audacious, Ji Huo'er, you dare to defy clan rules, bringing a man into the mountain, and even here of all places?"
The first voice ca from the woman standing in the center below the altar, dressed in white, bearing so resemblance to Ling Xian'er—it was none other than Ling Yu'er, the Sect Leader of Thousand Fox Mountain.
The Fox Clan has a secret technique to maintain eternal youth, so despite being Ling Xian'er and Ji Huo'er's grandmother, she still looked very young.
The second voice bellowing in anger belonged to the Protector, Leng Han'er.
Although unaware of how the two had made their way up the mountain, Leng Han'er's first assumption was that Ji Huo'er had sohow snuck Qinchuan in.
At this mont, the elders of Thousand Fox Mountain also wore grim expressions, looking at Qinchuan and Ji Huo'er with disapproval.
It had been thirty thousand years since a man had entered Fox Mountain; today, a man had co in.
Furthermore, this lad was only at the Dao Palace Realm, truly audacious to the extre, which left the elders both shocked and enraged. Regaining their senses, they encircled Qinchuan, their aura burgeoning, on high alert.
Even at this mont, many Fox Clan elders were secretly gathering mana, ready to strike Qinchuan dead on the spot.
Just then, Ling Xian'er suddenly stepped forward, hastily saying, "Elders, please don't, Young Master Qin is not a bad person."
Having finished speaking, she whispered to Ling Yu'er, "Grandma, this is Young Master Qin whom I've ntioned before. It's thanks to him that Huo'er and I were able to safely obtain the Divine Blood Lotus and survive unhard from the collapsing world."
A flicker of curiosity appeared in Ling Yu'er's eyes, and Liu i's brows furrowed, "So, you are Qinchuan!"
A few days prior, upon hearing that Ling Xian'er and another had survived the collapse of a world, she had her suspicions.
Today, she learnt from Ling Xian'er's mouth that their survival was largely due to this man nad Qinchuan.
Emotionally, Qinchuan had saved her two granddaughters. Rationally, he had made contributions to Thousand Fox Mountain. She felt she should personally et Qinchuan.
But after learning the Divine Blood Lotus had been successfully harvested, she joyfully headed straight for Thousand Fox Cave instead of eting Qinchuan imdiately.
She had not expected the young man to turn up here.
This put her in an awkward position.
Qinchuan had violated the rules of Thousand Fox Mountain by intruding upon the sect, and by all accounts, he should have been executed outright. However, as he had rendered a service to Thousand Fox Mountain, executing him now would sar their reputation with ingratitude.
After a pause, Ling Yu'er waved her hand and huffed coldly, "Considering the service you've done for my Thousand Fox Mountain, I will not pursue your trespass today."
"Co, expel this lad from the sect, and furthermore, for Ji Huo'er's breach of bringing a man into the sect unpermitted, penalize her to face the wall at Cliff of Reflection for one hundred years."
