"Rest assured, since I asked you to join forces, naturally, I have a strategy to escape!"
Lin Yi was noncommittal, then with a wave of his hand, the Ancient Bronze Palace suddenly flew out, enveloping his body within.
"Quickly enter the palace, I’ll get you out of here!"
Without any hesitation, Kong Sheng and Kong Lingxiang rushed into the Ancient Bronze Palace.
"Is this your reliance?"
The Nine-tailed Fox Woman showed a trace of hesitation on her face, but after glancing at the swiftly approaching Holy Corpse, she too turned around and dashed into the ancient palace!
The three Holy Corpses were ferociously aggressive, pounding on the Ancient Bronze Palace, yet they failed to shake its defenses, which withstood all their attacks.
A look of surprise crossed the Nine-tailed Fox Woman’s face, "I didn’t expect you to possess such a protective treasure. Why didn’t you bring it out earlier, and gather the strength of people from all tribes, wouldn’t that have given us a greater chance?"
However, Lin Yi shook his head and said, "Those people, I can’t trust."
"So you think you can trust me?"
The Nine-tailed Fox Woman’s face revealed a teasing, seductive smile, upending all creation.
"To tell the truth, I can’t trust you either."
Lin Yi grinned, "But apart from your Nine-tailed Royal Family, the other three Imperial Families all have some grievances with me, I can’t guarantee they won’t harbor ill intentions and secretly strike."
"Aren’t you afraid that I, your sister, will also stab you in the back?"
The Nine-tailed Fox Woman said with a radiant smile.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi replied confidently, "Since I dared to let you in, naturally I have the confidence not to worry about you causing trouble."
"Besides, I believe that you, Nine-tailed Sister, are different from others. It’s rumored that the Nine-tailed Demon Foxes are all extremely clever. Since you are a descendant of the Nine-tailed Royal Family, I think you’re a smart person."
He only allowed this Nine-tailed Fox Woman in, and with Kong Sheng and Kong Lingxiang already inside the Ancient Bronze Palace, even if she attempted to make a move, he was fully confident he could suppress her.
"Alright! Since you trust me so much, I, your sister, will join forces with you!"
The Nine-tailed Fox Woman knew Lin Yi was speaking the truth. Even if she caused trouble now, she wouldn’t gain any advantage, and moreover, she needed Lin Yi right now. Only by truly cooperating could they break through!
Lin Yi nodded, "You’re responsible for holding off these three Holy Corpses, I’ll take control of this Ancient Bronze Palace and break us out!"
The Nine-tailed Fox Woman’s forehead suddenly showed an ancient rune. She continuously stimulated her powerful Demon Soul, launching Soul Blades one after another with her Soul Secret Technique to delay the three Holy Corpses, rendering them temporarily unable to move!
Meanwhile, Kong Sheng and Kong Lingxiang also assisted from the side, striking the Holy Corpses to prevent them from getting close to the Ancient Bronze Palace.
As for Lin Yi, he was fully concentrating on manipulating the Ancient Bronze Palace. In this maelstrom of Corpse Qi, it moved like a small boat against the current, striving to go upstream.
After employing the secret technique seven times in a row, the Nine-tailed Fox Woman’s face turned extremely pale, her soul power was greatly consumed, and she was dizzy and struggling to continue.
Lin Yi shook his head. The tomb was too complex, and the Corpse Qi turbulence was at least ten times stronger than when they entered. To get out, they would have to overcome this formidable force.
"I can’t hold on much longer!"
The Nine-tailed Fox Woman, although proficient in the Soul Attack Secret Method, had limited cultivation. She was still in the Venerable Realm and had not yet ascended to the Semi-Saint level, so contending with the three Holy Corpses was extremely difficult.
Without a second word, Lin Yi threw her a large bowl of Holy-grade Spirit Spring, "Drink this, it’ll restore you faster!"
"This is... Holy-grade Spirit Spring?!"
The Nine-tailed Fox Woman was astonished. She didn’t expect Lin Yi to have such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures on him. Using such treasures as consumables seemed too extravagant!
But at this moment, she couldn’t be concerned about that. Repelling those three Holy Corpses was the most pressing matter. If she didn’t survive, what use would the Holy-grade Spirit Spring be?
"The three Holy Corpses, they’re coming up!"
Kong Lingxiang shrieked, and the three Holy Corpses had already closed in, clinging to the doors of the Ancient Bronze Palace, about to break in!
In desperation, the Nine-tailed Fox Woman didn’t care about appearances; she gulped down the spirit water. Once it entered her stomach, it instantly turned into pure energy, replenishing all her depleted soul power.
With her soul power fully restored in an instant, the Nine-tailed Fox Woman’s silver hair whipped wildly, her eyes bright and spirited. As she stimulated the secret technique again, a hazy white light surged from her eyes, as if creating a realm of its own, capable of pulling anyone who made eye contact into a world of illusion. That was the Supreme Illusion Technique of the Nine-tailed Demon Fox!
All three Holy Corpses were ensnared, their bodies jolting as if electrocuted, automatically loosening their grip on the Ancient Bronze Palace, tumbling into the turbulent flow of Corpse Qi.
Soul power had always been the Pi Jue Corpse Clan’s weakness— a congenital defect that couldn’t be remedied. Facing a Nine-tailed Demon Fox now at full soul power, they instantly fell into the illusion of the Nine-tailed Royal Family!
Seeing this, Lin Yi’s eyes instantly lit up—this Nine-tailed Fox Woman truly was a major asset. His choice to ally with her was a gamble that paid off!
