Section 77: Spirit Monster Sky Fox – Enters the Stage!
2013-02-09 Author: Gu Zhenren
“Hahaha! Interfering with the Spirit Demon Tribulation angers Heaven and Earth. Even though you managed to negate the Earth God Tribulation, the final Fire God Tribulation has completely mutated. Chu Yun, stop your futile struggle and die with me.” The assassin leader had taken the Nirvana Pill and was bound to die. She pressed closer to Chu Yun. The Great Demonic Plant, Lishan Dragon Eye Flower Branch, could not withstand the Spirit Demon Dagger in her hand.
However, all Demon Soldiers have flaws. The assassin leader’s attacks, due to these flaws, became erratic. Sometimes sharp, sometimes riddled with openings, giving Chu Yun a chance to breathe.
Even so, Chu Yun was in grave danger, his situation precarious.
At this critical juncture, Jin Bihan and Yan Que each dealt with their opponents and returned to reinforce him. With an opportunity, Chu Yun finally looked up, turning his attention to the Sky Fox.
“It’s…,” he saw the Tribulation Cloud, and his pupils contracted sharply. He couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine.
The black Tribulation Cloud in the sky could no longer conceal the final Fire God Tribulation. Streaks of fire dragons, solidified as if by substance, with scales like red jade, weaved through the clouds.
A sea of a thousand dragons!
The terrifying heat, before it even radiated outwards, already pressured the entire Shu Family Island. Even those in Shu Family City felt the unbearable heat, as if they were in a desert rather than by the sea, enjoying a gentle night breeze.
“The Six Fiery Aspects Tribulation, the final trial, is a Fire God Tribulation. What terrifying power!” someone exclaimed.
“The Sky Fox will surely perish this time!” Many in the envoy looked on with delight, their eyes shining.
“Success! Even with Chu Yun’s Fire Dao cultivation method, he cannot negate such a vast and immense Fire God Tribulation. As expected of Leader Ye Yu, she will be heavily rewarded upon her return!” Shui Ruolan’s face showed worry and sorrow, but her heart was inwardly erupting with laughter.
ROAR!
Countless fire dragons, roaring, turned and descended. Against the black backdrop of the night, nearly a thousand crimson fire dragons, baring their fangs and claws, descended with an incredibly fierce and violent momentum, making one’s heart tremble. The fire dragons’ target was the weakened, solitary Sky Fox. In an instant, the night sky formed a terrifying scene of a thousand dragons devouring a fox!
Everyone simultaneously cried out, some in fear, others unable to conceal their joy.
“Chu Yun!” Shu Tianhao exclaimed, his eyes filled with desperation. He couldn’t hold back any longer. Disregarding the Azure Sea Dragon’s injuries, he summoned it and rapidly flew towards Chu Yun to provide aid.
“What should we do?!” Chu Yun’s pupils were filled with the fiery dragons covering the sky. For the first time since his rebirth, he fell into hesitation and indecision. Such a terrifying Demonic Tribulation, even a Sky Fox in its prime could not overcome it. Now, it was covered in blood, not a single patch of fur intact. Its Demonic Essence was less than one-tenth remaining, barely enough to use an Upper grade or Supreme grade Dao Method once or twice.
More importantly, Chu Yun’s Drunken Snow Saber could no longer be used. In an instant, his thoughts flashed, and he considered every possible method!
There was no solution!
“Heh heh heh, the Sky Fox will undoubtedly perish today. Chu Yun, you will die too!” The assassin leader, Ye Yu, threw caution to the wind. Relying on her Spirit Demon Dagger, she attacked again, preventing Chu Yun from even ordering the Sky Fox.
“Damn it! If the Sky Fox dies, I will raze your Rain Island and exterminate the entire Shui Family! No mercy!” Chu Yun roared in his heart. Already on the brink of death facing the Spirit Demon Tribulation alone, coupled with a Great General-level assassin leader skilled in assassination, he, without the Drunken Snow Saber, was immediately pushed into a complete disadvantage.
Diligence is human, success is from Heaven.
Human effort was exhausted!
The Sky Fox was in danger, and Chu Yun was also on the brink of death.
“Save Chu Yun!” Jin Bihan glanced at the Sky Fox in the sky, gritted her teeth, and rushed towards Chu Yun. Yan Que followed a moment later, but close behind.
ROAR!
A thousand dragons roared, the Sky Fox shrieked. Countless fire dragons formed a torrent of flames, quickly engulfing the small Sky Fox.
Chu Yun’s heart sank. At this moment, he felt a piercing pain!
“Sky Fox—!!!” he roared, his eyes bloodshot, appearing frenzied.
The assassin leader was momentarily stunned by his aura. Even with the combat power of a Spirit Demon, she was met with Chu Yun’s desperate counterattack and fell into a disadvantage.
“A terrifying young man! Even Tie Ao is no match for him.” The assassin leader instantly came to her senses, her killing intent surging. Having taken the Nirvana Pill, she knew she was going to die. She exchanged injuries for injuries, sending Jin Bihan and Yan Que flying. Then, at the cost of her left arm being frozen by the Ice Soul Divine Light, she knocked Chu Yun to the ground.
Then, with a sharp cry, she raised her Spirit Demon Dagger and lunged, aiming a fatal blow at Chu Yun.
The dim dagger cut through the air, emitting a faint hum, like the God of Death mockingly addressing Chu Yun. A fierce and chilling wind arose out of nowhere, sweeping through Chu Yun’s body and mind.
A sinister, triumphant smile spread across the assassin leader’s face. She knew that with this strike, even the Lishan Dragon Eye Flower Branch in Chu Yun’s hand would not be able to defend him.
She had succeeded!
Excitement flared in her eyes, as if she could already see her dagger piercing Chu Yun’s heart, extinguishing all his life and hope. As if she could already hear the beautiful sound of the dagger piercing his sturdy chest, cutting through his breastbone, and tearing through his flesh.
“How dare you hurt my son!!!” Shu Tianhao roared, his eyes wide with fury, tears streaming down his face. Unable to reach them in time, he could only watch helplessly as the dagger descended like lightning!
“No—!” In Shu Tianhao’s perception, time suddenly slowed down exponentially. He watched in vain as the opponent’s dagger turned into arcs of death in mid-air, plunging towards Chu Yun’s heart.
Not only him, but Jin Bihan and Yan Que beside him, as well as the Three Old Generals, all noticed this, their hearts sinking to the deepest, darkest abyss.
It was too late…
Could the Young Tyrant Chu Yun, perish at this very moment?
“Is my rebirth a tale about to end here? Unwilling! I still haven’t helped the Sky Fox break free from its past life’s limitations. The… the Sky Fox?!”
Suddenly, a light flickered in Chu Yun’s pupils, bursting into brilliance.
In that instant, the assassin leader, who was preparing to savor Chu Yun’s final moments of hatred and unwillingness, saw the light in his eyes. She let out a surprised “Oh?” and then an extremely terrifying sense of crisis descended upon her, engulfing her entire being!
Every cell in her body involuntarily trembled!
“Dare to harm my master? You’re seeking death!” a sharp cry exploded in her ears.
“Who is it?!” the assassin leader exclaimed in surprise, but her attack did not falter; in fact, her speed increased. She wanted to kill Chu Yun, even at this crucial moment.
This was the leader of the Ye Yu assassins, a Monster Tamer who walked in darkness!
Far more troublesome, insidious, and ruthless than a regular Great General!
BOOM!
But in the next moment, an explosion sounded, and immense power, mixed with roaring flames, sent the assassin leader flying.
She coughed up blood, her entire body in excruciating pain, almost making her faint. As she flew backward, she couldn’t help but turn her head. A strong desire drove her – she desperately wanted to see who this person was!
Suddenly, her pupils shrank to the size of pinpricks, and her face contorted into extreme shock as she roared incredulously, “This, how can this be?!”
In the night sky, a young girl, dressed in a pure white dress, appeared to be about twelve or thirteen years old. Her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, reaching her buttocks. Her large eyes, like black gems, sparkled and shone brilliantly. Now, as she looked at Chu Yun, her eyes were filled with worry, anxiety, dependence, and tenderness.
The fiery dragons that had filled the sky seemed to cower before the maiden’s might. They were now like listless loaches, their power gone, showing signs of retreating.
This maiden was as lovely as an angel, with a delicate nose and cherry lips, slightly developed breasts, ivory-like arms, a slender waist, and a graceful, exquisite build. Most striking were the pair of white fox ears on her head
