"Gongming, light the Fox Attraction Incense." King Lin ordered as Xu Qing steadied their position with a loud shout.
Xu Qing nodded and gave Su Lianqing a meaningful glance.
Immediately, Su Lianqing ignited the Fox Attraction Incense.
Since the Three-tailed Black Fox had demonstrated the Flying Stone Demon Technique at the level of Exorcism, its true body had to be nearby. Now was the perfect time to use the Fox Attraction Incense.
After all, if the Three-tailed Black Fox wasn’t nearby, lighting the Fox Attraction Incense would have no effect.
As the Fox Attraction Incense was ignited, a unique fragrance permeated the deep valley.
Soon, everyone was shocked.
Because in a matter of moments, more than a dozen ox-calf-sized black foxes appeared at the valley’s mouth, each with sharp teeth and a fierce demeanor.
Su Lianqing’s expression changed drastically as she quietly told Xu Qing that these black foxes were using Demon Art to stimulate their full life potential, usually not living beyond half a month, but each one vicious beyond compare.
Within the Luo Sect, there were very few who could use such Dao Skills.
This indicated that the inheritance received by the Three-tailed Black Fox was extraordinary.
She suddenly remembered the Wenxiang Sect, which made quite a stir during the founding days of the Great Yu Dynasty two hundred years ago.
That was once the largest branch of the Luo Sect, once nearly supplanting the main Luo Sect’s position.
The dozen mutated black foxes’ eyes gleamed with bloodthirsty red light, viciously pouncing toward the group.
Fayue’s expression was also extremely grave; he suspected that the Three-tailed Black Fox must have been pointed in the right direction by the Great Demon in the process of trying to save the relic in the pagoda, else it wouldn’t have grown so terrifyingly powerful in just six months, nor learned such formidable Demon Arts.
The ox-calf-sized Evil Foxes may have short lives, but they had already lost their self-awareness, retaining only their vicious and malevolent instincts.
Originally under the control of the Three-tailed Black Fox, they were waiting in ambush.
Yet, they were drawn out by the Fox Attraction Incense.
Now, they wildly charged towards Xu Qing’s side.
Xu Qing pulled back his Cow Tendon Hard Bow, firing an arrow.
But it only managed to hit the leading Evil Fox. The arrow, with its tremendous force, pushed it back, failing to kill it on the spot.
Instead, it only further fueled its ferocity.
At this moment, Su Lianqing "panicked" and threw the Fox Attraction Incense towards the mountain bandits nearby.
"Benevolent Mother of Non-Existence above, a Taoist would rather see his comrade die than himself..." Su Lianqing’s mind raced with thoughts.
She recognized that these Evil Foxes were all drawn out by the Fox Attraction Incense. Holding onto the incense now was practically seeking death.
There was no need to wait for Xu Qing to speak, to spare the young master any awkwardness.
Su Lianqing "anxiously" threw it out amidst the chaos.
The situation was hectic.
The mountain bandits not far away had their attention diverted by the Evil Foxes and didn’t notice the Fox Attraction Incense had been tossed their way.
The group of Evil Foxes suddenly changed direction halfway and charged at the mountain bandits.
King Lin sneered and stepped forward, his massive fist pummeling the head of the first approaching Evil Fox. Under King Lin’s fist, the oxcalf-sized Evil Fox was flung several steps away, and as it tried to get up to continue fighting,
King Lin used Bull Demon Stepping Hoof to immediately stomp the Evil Fox to death!
His ferocity made even the mindless Evil Foxes tremble with fear.
"Well done, the fierce man," Fayue couldn’t help but respect this underworld overlord of Jiangning Prefecture. "I fear not even the Monk’s Great Vajra Palm could subdue him."
As King Lin’s wrath was unleashed with a bellow, "Three-tailed Black Fox, do you think you can hide from me for a lifetime?"
With King Lin’s roar, an avalanche immediately occurred in the valley.
Instantly, the wolf pack inside fled outwards.
It turned out that King Lin had deliberately caused the snow and rubble accumulated on the valley cliffs to be triggered in advance so that if the Three-tailed Black Fox didn’t show up, they could take the opportunity to attack.
This also avoided the risk of triggering an avalanche when they entered the valley.
At the same time, it was to see if they could force the still-hidden Three-tailed Black Fox out.
His voice was like thunder.
Indeed it caused the valley to suffer avalanches and landslides.
At this moment, from within the valley, a massive black shadow emerged, looking even more robust than a Fire Cloud Horse. An extremely terrifying oppressive aura pervaded the surroundings.
The commotion in the back of the valley continued unabated, with resounding rumbling noises, making the formidable presence of the shadow in front even more intimidating.
Xu Qing’s heartbeat accelerated.
He could not imagine that the Three-tailed Black Fox would be so huge.
Xu Qing finally had a concrete understanding of the Demon Beasts in this world.
No wonder King Lin had invited him as an ally and was willing to share the spirit meat and spirit blood so generously.
Such a large creature would be enough to feed both the young and old of Black Wind Village for a year.
King Lin’s expression also turned grave.
The size of the Three-tailed Black Fox this time had increased more than a notch since he chased it at the beginning of the year.
It was good that he had invited allies this time; relying solely on Black Wind Village’s power would likely be insufficient to capture the Three-tailed Black Fox.
Wang Huwei and the others were also looking solemn.
They had heard rumors of monsters and demons, but this was the first time they had seen a Demon Beast of such a large size. The impact was far beyond their previous expectations.
Fayue also couldn’t help but grip his prayer beads tightly, such a formidable Demon Fox.
Fortunately, he had followed Xu Qing and others in advance to besiege it; otherwise, if it had been allowed to grow further, the Monk at Golden Ray Monastery might not have been able to withstand it when the fox returned next time.
The remaining Evil Foxes the size of young oxen managed to break free from the influence of the Fox Attraction Incense and appeared in front of the Three-tailed Black Fox.
Xu Qing felt that this scene was becoming reminiscent of a monkey journeying to the west to fetch scriptures.
One demon leading a host of demon soldiers.
The mountain bandits that had come with Black Wind Village this time were all elites. Besides King Lin, four leaders had come; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to hold their ground.
