Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 162 The red fox gathers fire
Changfeng County, Yanqiu, is rich in red copper. It was originally occupied by the Du family, a family of cultivators, but now it has been taken over by a group of foxes.

Chaotic times breed monsters. The Yellow Wind Cult wreaked havoc in Changfeng County, defeating the official forces of the Southern Jing Kingdom and causing the order of Changfeng County to collapse. Under such circumstances, monsters in Changfeng County suddenly became active.

In Changfeng County, the demons were not originally powerful, and there wasn't even a single one at the peak of Qi Refining. They could only barely survive in some harsh environments by taking advantage of the terrain. But now they have seen an opportunity and have begun to attack everywhere.

As for these demons, the Yellow Wind Sect chose to let them run rampant. In fact, the rampage of these demons was intentionally instigated by them, because these demons could further help them destroy the order of Changfeng County. Although the county governor Lu Ran had already fallen and the power of the county governor's mansion had been greatly reduced, the power of the cultivation families in Changfeng County was still not to be underestimated.

In particular, the Zhuang family, the number one family in Changfeng County, whose patriarch, although no match for Huangfeng Sanren, was a genuine Qi Refining Perfection cultivator, always gave Huangfeng Sect some pause.

"Is this Yanqiu?"

High in the sky, riding the mist and transforming into a dragon, Jiang Chen silently watched Yan Qiu.

After deciding to establish a presence in Changfeng County, he carefully selected Yanqiu as his first stop. Yanqiu has a copper mine with relatively abundant resources. It is located on the outskirts of Changfeng County, far from the core. In addition, the Du family, which originally occupied this place, is a famous weapon-refining family with a first-order weapon-refining inheritance.

"Red foxes are a relatively large demon race in Changfeng County. Judging from their current performance, their overall spirituality is still quite high."

Looking down from his vantage point, a glint of light flashed in his eyes as Jiang Chen silently observed Yan Qiu.

At this moment, on this fiery hill, red foxes of all sizes roam freely, while some humans are enslaved by them, specifically tasked with mining.

"The two foxes are at the Qi Refining level. The strongest one should be at the Lesser Completion of Qi Refining. The protective array here has been broken, and the Red Fox is not capable of repairing it."

After observing for a period of time, Jiang Chen had a relatively clear understanding of the situation on Yanqiu, but he still did not rush to take action.

Night fell, the moonlight was dim, and a few scattered stars hung in the sky. The busy Yanqiu finally quieted down.

Inside the cave, Du Zhong dragged his numb body back to his little nest. He was originally a member of the Du family, with considerable talent and a knack for weapon crafting. He was a promising talent for cultivation within the Du family and received their focused support.

Unfortunately, the Yellow Wind raged, and the Du family patriarch was killed by the Yellow Wind Sect, which greatly reduced the strength of the Du family. In the end, the Red Fox Clan seized the opportunity and wiped out the entire clan. If he hadn't disguised himself in time, he would not have survived. Even so, he went from being a promising cultivator in the family to a slave.

"I must live on, I must avenge my family..."

Glancing at the dim moonlight outside, Du Zhong strengthened his resolve, fearing that he wouldn't be able to persevere if things continued like this.

The Red Fox Clan kept a tight watch on him, and he had no chance to escape. To avoid being discovered by the Red Fox Clan, he didn't even dare to cultivate normally.

Just then, the moonlight in the sky seemed to be obscured by something, and a layer of fine mist began to emerge, slowly enveloping Yanqiu.

At first, the Red Fox didn't notice anything amiss with this anomaly, but as time passed and the fog thickened, the Qi-cultivating demon within the Red Fox became alert.

With a leap, two red foxes, each about ten feet tall, covered in crimson fur, with sharp teeth and claws, and with scarlet eyes, jumped onto the roof. One of them had an old face and white eyebrows, while the other was relatively young and had yellow eyebrows.

Seeing the increasingly thick fog, both Qi Refining demons adopted a defensive posture.

"What exactly is that..."

Enveloped in mist, the unease in the hearts of the two Qi Refining demons grew stronger; this seemingly ordinary mist gave them a very bad feeling.

"Let the minions test the waters." They exchanged a glance, made a decision, and the two Qi-refining red foxes simultaneously let out a sharp cry.

A sharp screech broke the silence of the night, waking all the red foxes that were still resting.

Squeaks and squeaks filled the air, and the entire Yanqiu became lively. Upon receiving the command, the numerous red foxes scattered and rushed into the mist.

Sensing this anomaly, many of the enslaved miners in those caves also showed unusual expressions, but with Red Fox guarding outside, they dared not make any unusual moves.

Could this be an opportunity?

Realizing something, Du Zhong felt a sense of anticipation.

At this moment, the expressions of the two Qi Refining Red Foxes became completely solemn, because all the Red Foxes that rushed into the mist had disappeared, and no sound came back.

"Let's work together to tear this fog apart."

Realizing something was wrong, the two red foxes attacked simultaneously, waving their claws to grab at the ethereal mist.

In the next instant, ten crimson spiritual lights burst forth, like blades rushing into the mist, instantly scattering the surrounding mist into pieces. However, at this moment, a shadow emerged from the mist, casually stirring it up, causing it to surge like waves, instantly engulfing Yanqiu.

At that very moment, the unease in the hearts of the two Qi-cultivating red foxes reached its peak.

Whoosh! As if their fur was on fire, almost instinctively, both Qi-cultivating red foxes raised their defenses to the limit. At that moment, a dragon tail swept out from the dense fog.

With a bang, the powerful dragon's energy erupted, sending the two Qi Refining Crimson Foxes flying and leveling the entire house.

"Unbeatable by force..."

Having caught a glimpse of their opponent, the two Qi Refining demon foxes were filled with horror. With just one attack, they had already suffered considerable injuries, and this was only because they had taken precautions beforehand. If they had not taken precautions, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Gather the fire!"

With their blood boiling, the two Qi Refining demons summoned their clan once more.

At their call, all the red foxes on Flame Hill began to gather around them. As more and more red foxes banded together, the faint flames continued to gather, and the power on the two Qi Refining red foxes began to increase continuously. This was a bloodline secret technique of their red fox clan.

It is precisely by relying on this secret method that the Red Fox Clan has been able to establish itself in Changfeng County.

Seeing this scene through the mist, Jiang Chen's eyes flickered slightly; this was the first time he had ever seen such a secret technique.

"If there are enough red foxes to support it, and given some time, a red fox at the minor completion level might be able to unleash the power of a Qi Refining master."

After a brief assessment, Jiang Chen had some guesses about the mystery of the Crimson Fox Secret Technique.
