Chapter 1239: Three-tailed Heavenly Fox
After 3 days.
In the dense forest, a strange Ancient Devil Warrior was running at high speed.
The Ancient Devil Warrior’s skin was pitch black, and he was wearing clothes made of animal skin. Unlike the clothes of other Ancient Devil Warriors that only covered crucial parts, this Ancient Devil Warrior’s body was completely covered in animal skin. His eyes were also light blue, but they were more vivid and lively.
All of a sudden, the Ancient Devil Warrior stopped.
His gaze was fixed in one direction, and he looked very cautious. At this time, a tiger with black and white patterns jumped out from the bushes.
The Ancient Devil Warrior’s eyes were filled with curiosity. “Are all the creatures in this Fallen Land only black and white?”
It was the case for the Devil Dwellers, the Wolf King, as well as this ferocious tiger.
The Ancient Devil Warrior was Ou Yangming’s disguise. He was proficient in the language of the Devil Dwellers, and he could completely hide his aura of a human with the Earth’s Demolition Cauldron. As long as he changed his appearance, it would look flawless.
At this moment, the ferocious tiger stared at the Ancient Devil Warrior with a cruel look on its face.
Just as it was about to eat the Devil Dweller…
“Do you have a Dripping Blood Stone?” The fierce tiger suddenly heard a voice.
The tiger was stunned, and it looked at the Ancient Devil Warrior in disbelief. It could not imagine why he would ask such a strange question.
‘Does he want to use Dripping Blood Stones to exchange for his life?’ The fierce tiger thought.
“You have a lot of Dripping Blood Stones?” The fierce tiger asked probingly. If this guy really had a lot of Dripping Blood Stones, it could consider giving him a quick death. After all, Ancient Devil Warriors were delicious food. It was not easy to meet them, so it definitely could not let him go.
“No.” The Ancient Devil Warrior shook his head and looked at the tiger as if he was looking at a retard. “I’m asking if you have any Dripping Blood Stones. If you have enough, I can let you go.”
The tiger was furious when it heard that. It jumped up and pounced toward Ou Yangming like lightning.
“Why are you so agitated?” Ou Yangming said in the language of the Fallen Land as he jumped onto the big tree behind him.
The fierce tiger did not expect the Ancient Devil Warrior to react so quickly. It swung its tail forcefully, and its black and white tail was like an iron rod.
“Crack!”
The big tree was cut into two halves by the fierce tiger’s tail. The tiger opened its bloody mouth and bit toward the sky. Nonetheless, the Ancient Devil Warrior in the sky did not fall.
Upon seeing this, the tiger was dumbfounded. ‘How?’
This tiger was a top-grade Venerable One and could not fly in the Fallen Land. Logically speaking, the Ancient Devil Warrior should be weaker than it, but he was floating in the air.
‘It can fly. Doesn’t that mean…’
The tiger’s eyes were suddenly filled with shock. Only Devil Generals could fly in the air. ‘This person with a mace isn’t an Ancient Devil Warrior, but a powerful Devil General! He’s an expert of the same level as Master!’
After the tiger sensed the opponent’s strength, it turned around and ran. It was not afraid of an Ancient Devil Warrior but against a Devil General, it had no chance to resist.
“It’s too late to run now.”
Ou Yangming leaped down from the sky. His speed was extremely fast, and he instantly rushed to the tiger’s side, waving the spiked mace in his hand.
“Bang!” An explosion sounded in the air.
The ferocious tiger’s body was sent flying 10 meters away. It fell to the ground, unable to move. Only then did Ou Yangming float to its side. He smiled and asked, “Do you have Dripping Blood Stones?”
It was the same question but this time, it sounded different to the fierce tiger. The other party did not want to kill it but rob it!
“Yes… Yes…” The fierce tiger collapsed on the ground and answered with a weak voice.
“How many?” Ou Yangming asked again. His eyes lit up. He was very eager to get Dripping Blood Stones, and he did not have any on him at the moment.
“I have many but most of them are with my master. I only have 2…”
The tiger opened its mouth and spat out 2 Dripping Blood Stones from its stomach. Then, it looked at Ou Yangming innocently. It thought to itself, ‘When Master comes, you will have a good time.’
How could this ferocious tiger hide its thoughts from Ou Yangming? He picked up the 2 Dripping Blood Stones on the ground, pretending not to know anything. He asked, “You have 30 Dripping Blood Stones, right? If you have them, ask your master to bring them over. I can spare you.”
“Yes, yes!” The tiger said hurriedly. It was secretly pleasantly surprised. ‘What Master said is indeed true. This Ancient Devil Warrior is really stupid. He could be fooled by just a few words.’
The fierce tiger struggled to get up. First, it looked at Ou Yangming with fear. When it saw him standing aside indifferently, it took a deep breath, puffed up its stomach, and let out a roar that shook Heaven and Earth.
After the roar, the fierce tiger fell to the ground and said, “Sir, my master will come here soon.”
“Will he bring the Dripping Blood Stones?” Ou Yangming asked.
“Yes, yes, yes!” The ferocious tiger said hurriedly.
After saying that, the tiger looked up at the sky.
It did not know whether its master would bring the Dripping Blood Stones or not. Just now, it made a cry for help. It believed that after its master heard it, it would be here in no time.
After a moment, another stream of light flashed in the sky. The figure came very quickly.
A 2-meter-tall fox flew over from a distance. It stepped on the air and looked proudly at Ou Yangming and the fierce tiger on the ground.
The fox’s fur was dark brown, and it had 3 tails.
“A Three-tailed Heavenly Fox.”
From the memory fragments of the Ancient Devil Warrior from before, Ou Yangming knew the name of this fox. The Heavenly Foxes were also a huge race in this Fallen Land. They were very powerful. When they were born, they only had one tail. As long as they mature, they would grow another tail.
Most Heavenly Foxes had 2 tails. They were Venerable Ones, which was not much different from Ancient Devil Warriors. Despite that, when they fused with Dripping Blood Stones or used other methods in the Fallen Land, they would mutate and evolve. By then, they would become Three-tailed Heavenly Foxes. The strength of a Three-tailed Heavenly Fox was classified according to the Great Wide World as a Ruler, which was a level higher than the Ancient Devil Warriors.
“Did you bring the Dripping Blood Stones?” Ou Yangming raised his head and asked.
“What Dripping Blood Stones?” The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox did not know what he meant. The fierce tiger at the side hurriedly said, “This Ancient Devil Warrior asked you to bring 30 Dripping Blood Stones to exchange for my life, Master.”
“30 Dripping Blood Stones. What high-sounding sentiment!”
The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox’s eyes coldly swept over Ou Yangming with a disdainful look in its eyes. It did not care about a small Ancient Devil Warrior at all.
In the Fallen Land, Devil Dwellers were the majority, but they were far from being as noble as the Heavenly Foxes. When Heavenly Foxes reached adulthood, they would become Venerable Ones, but Devil Dwellers had to go through narrow escapes before they could reach the same boundary.
This was the difference in genes.
Ou Yangming imitated the Ancient Devil Warrior’s voice and asked, “Are you not going to care about your servant’s life?”
The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox looked at Ou Yangming with disdain and responded proudly, “If you dare to touch it at all, I’ll tear you into pieces.”
“Is that so?”
Ou Yangming smiled. Having said that, under his appearance as an Ancient Devil Warrior, his smile looked hideous. He lowered his body and grabbed the fierce tiger.
The fierce tiger cried out in pain, and a lot of furs appeared in Ou Yangming’s hand.
This handful of tiger fur could be made into a glove.
“You’re courting death!”
The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox did not expect that this Ancient Devil Warrior would dare to provoke it so much. It moved slightly, and its body turned into a shadow.
In an instant, it arrived in front of Ou Yangming.
Fingernails that were half a meter long appeared on the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox’s claws. The sharp fingernails had a cold glint, and it clawed at Ou Yangming’s neck.
Ou Yangming’s expression was calm. His body leaned back, forming an extreme arc as he easily dodged the move.
“This is quite lethal, but you’re a bit too slow.” Ou Yangming chuckled.
It sounded like a mockery to the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox. Its gaze turned cold as it pounced over again, but Ou Yangming once again easily dodged it.
The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox’s speed was not slow as it was much faster than a Devil Dweller of the same level. Unfortunately, it did not encounter a Devil Dweller but Ou Yangming.
“Master, he can fly in the sky. He’s a Devil General!”
The fierce tiger reminded its master. It was afraid that its master would be careless and fall. Its master’s strength was powerful. As long as its master was not careless, ordinary Devil Generals would not be its match.
Without needing to be reminded by the tiger, the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox already knew the strength of the Devil Dweller. If he was just an Ancient Devil Warrior, he would have been killed by it in the first move.
‘This guy’s quite powerful,’ the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox thought to itself.
‘But do you think that you can contend with me like this?’ The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox’s gaze gradually turned cold. Suddenly, a red light flashed in its eyes.
Ou Yangming happened to meet its gaze. The red light was like a swamp, causing his mental power to sink deep into it. The eyes of the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox turned into deep vortexes.
An image suddenly appeared in Ou Yangming’s mind. The world had collapsed, and the world was blood red. Countless people in the Great Wide World were wailing non-stop. Old Craftsman, Ni Yinghong, and the others were all looking at him in despair.
‘So real. Is this the ultimate move of the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox?’
Those scenes were all Ou Yangming’s fears. At this moment, they were very real in front of him. If an ordinary person encountered such a situation, one would at least be absent-minded for a moment.
Ou Yangming suddenly opened his eyes. A cold light blossomed in his eyes. He looked at the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox that was charging at him and threw a punch.
“Bang!”
The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox was sent flying by a punch under unexpected circumstances. A long spear appeared in Ou Yangming’s hand. When the long spear appeared, the surrounding air turned cold.
“How’s this possible? How did you wake up so quickly?”
The Three-tailed Heavenly Fox was in disbelief. It was very clear in its heart how powerful its ultimate move was. It was impossible for its opponent to wake up so quickly.
It did not know that Ou Yangming had not fallen into the trap from the beginning to the end. A part of his mental power was constantly paying attention to the situation outside.
“I’m very sorry. You let me see some unpleasant scenes.”
Ou Yangming flipped his wrist, and the Reincarnation Spear was like a poisonous dragon’s breath. It suddenly stabbed in the direction of the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox.
With a bang, the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox’s body was weightless. It did not have the time to resist and was ruthlessly nailed to the ground by the spear.
