Chapter 62 The Fox Spirit's Secret
Empress Qiuchi went into seclusion to cultivate the "Phoenix Follows the True Dragon Technique".

Liu Chengfeng also prepared to cultivate and attempt to break through to the third stage of the Divine Treasury of Guidance.

At this moment, Nangong Renshe came and told him that the branch of Qiyun Sect had been established.

Liu Chengfeng went over to take a look.

The Qiyun Sect's branch was built outside the Imperial City, occupying a branch of a spiritual vein.

Although it doesn't cover a vast area like the Qiyun Sect, it still has more than a dozen mountain peaks, and the spiritual energy there is not bad either.

Most importantly, it is close to the imperial city, making it suitable for both advancing and retreating.

The branch has been built, with many buildings and houses. Many disciples of Qiyun Sect have moved here, and the Fourth Elder is stationed here.

Like a cunning rabbit with three burrows, Liu Chengfeng was very satisfied with the branch, which was also a way of repaying the Qiyun Sect.

Liu Chengfeng decided to stay at the branch for a while and took out the secret manuals of the Qiyun Sect to read through.

Besides the ancestral secret manuals of the Qiyun Sect, there were also items seized from the Shangsheng Witch family.

Liu Chengfeng selected some secret techniques and combined them into a masterpiece.

For example, Nangong Renshe's Golden Thunder Heart Method and Palm Thunder.

Another example is the Witch Cultivation Method and the Eighteen Skills of the Witch King, which were seized from the ascending witch family.

…………

Liu Chengfeng did not fuse them into innate level, after all, there were too many secret manuals, and if he were to fuse them all into innate level, he would not have enough black stones.

Even the finest quality items represent a tremendous gain for the Qiyun Sect.

When has the Qiyun Sect, established for so long, ever possessed such advanced cultivation techniques? And not just one.

After mastering these techniques, Liu Chengfeng began to devise a completely new one.

He was very interested in the Eighteen Powers of the Ascending Witchcraft Family.

He had a plan in mind: to integrate the Eighteen Techniques of the Witch King into a unique and unparalleled martial art.

Liu Chengfeng tried to integrate it with other cultivation techniques, hoping to create a cultivation technique that he desired.

He not only used the techniques of the Yun Sect and the Shengshang Wu Family to feed the Eighteen Techniques of the Witch King, but also used the techniques of the Qiuchi Royal Family to feed it.

After repeated fusing and feeding, the cultivation technique that Liu Chengfeng wanted gradually took shape, and he continued to fuse and create it.

Liu Chengfeng named this brand-new technique: The Eighteen Witch Kings' Heaven-Shaking Technique.

Just as Liu Chengfeng was enjoying himself immensely creating new martial arts techniques, Empress Qiuchi came knocking on his door.

"My dear wife, you miss me."

These words earned them a cold look from Empress Qiuchi.

She remained as cold as ice, exuding an aura of imperial dominance, clad in golden dragon armor.

"No, what are you trying to do?"

When Liu Chengfeng saw that she was wearing golden dragon armor, he knew something was wrong.

"I'm going to hunt the lynx king."

"Hunting the Lynx King, heading to Yunmeng Marsh?"

Liu Chengfeng was surprised.

"You need to break through to the third level of the Guiding Realm. The third level is crucial for establishing the Life Furnace."

"This is the stage of replenishing blood and qi. It would be even better if you could further strengthen your blood sea. If you have a blood sea of ​​thirty miles, and can reignite the life furnace, your blood and qi will surely reach a new level."

Although Empress Qiuchi was as cold as ice, her tone was much gentler when she spoke to Liu Chengfeng.

Liu Chengfeng once said that she needed the true blood of a ferocious beast that had been around for ten or twenty thousand years, and she kept that in mind.

The new lord of Yunmengze, the Lynx Emperor, is a ferocious beast with 20,000 years of true blood.

Killing the Lynx King and taking its true blood will strengthen Liu Chengfeng's Blood Sea.

"I'll go with you."

"Yunmengze is a dangerous place; it's not safe for you to go there."

"Afraid that my cultivation is insufficient and will be a burden to you?"

Liu Chengfeng glared at her.

Empress Qiuchi glared back with eyes as sharp as knives. How dare this man glare at her!
"The Lynx King has now taken control of Yunmengze, and hundreds of strange beasts obey his commands, making them easy targets for the beast tide."

Although her gaze was sharp as a knife and her voice as cold as frost, she spoke softly.

“I happen to have a brother working there, so it would be more suitable for me to lead the way.”

Even the Autumn Pool Empress gave him a strange look; it was rare for him to be on friendly terms with a strange beast.

They were discussing going to Yunmengze when Little Fox suddenly appeared.

Upon seeing Xiao Li, Empress Qiuchi instantly unleashed a chilling aura, overwhelming with the might of the Great Dao, her imperial bearing domineering and her aura like a spear.

With a "whoosh," the little fox darted into Liu Chengfeng's arms.

Empress Qiuchi's chill rose, like ice spears shattering.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't do anything reckless! Are you trying to kill your husband?"

Empress Qiuchi's ice spear shattered, startling Liu Chengfeng.

Of course, Empress Qiuchi did not stab Liu Chengfeng with her spear.

Her gaze was sharp as a knife, cold as ice, fixed on Xiao Li.

"That vixen!"

"How is this going?"

Liu Chengfeng was completely bewildered, staring at the little fox in his arms.

The little fox poked its head out and stuck its tongue out at Queen Qiuchi, as if in a show of defiance.

When the Autumn Pond Empress tried to catch it, it immediately burrowed into Liu Chengfeng's arms.

"Hand it over."

Empress Qiuchi's expression was unfriendly, her gaze sharp as a knife as she glanced at Liu Chengfeng.

"Okay, okay, I'll hand it over."

Liu Chengfeng didn't know what grudge Xiaoli had against Empress Qiuchi, so he pulled Xiaoli out of his arms.

The little fox wouldn't let him catch it and jumped aside.

"Oh, even Her Majesty the Empress gets jealous."

The little fox spoke in a sweet, charming voice, almost dripping with moisture.

"Depend on--"

Liu Chengfeng hadn't expected the little fox to be able to speak; it had remained silent the whole time.

"Crimson Soul—"

Empress Qiuchi's killing intent was intense, freezing everything in all directions, and her spear was already aimed at Little Fox.

Although the Ice Phoenix Spear had not yet been used, Xiao Li was still wary and dared not be careless.

"Your Majesty, greetings."

Little Fox transformed into human form, and a beautiful woman appeared before her.

This beautiful woman, dressed in a snow-white robe, was voluptuous and alluring, with captivating eyes and a mesmerizing demeanor, like a shimmering spring pond, exuding boundless charm, almost dripping with moisture.

"That works too—"

Seeing Xiao Li transform into a beautiful woman, alluring to the bone, Liu Chengfeng was dumbfounded; this was definitely a vixen.

This vixen stayed by his side the whole time, and would snuggle into his arms from time to time. No wonder she was a little arrogant.

"What do you want to do?"

Empress Qiuchi harbored deep hatred, her killing intent was palpable, and she was as cold as ice.

"Your Majesty, what can a mere woman like me do? My family is destroyed, and I am all alone. Fortunately, the young master took me in, so I am no longer adrift."

Little Fox, no, she should be called Crimson Soul, was on the verge of tears, looking utterly pitiful.

Her alluring glances were captivating, making one want to pull her into their arms.

This demeanor amazed Liu Chengfeng; such a vixen could truly bewitch all living beings.

Empress Qiuchi glanced at Liu Chengfeng, her gaze capable of killing.

"I don't know her background. She took in an injured fox she found in the Great Meng Mountain."

Liu Chengfeng chuckled dryly. If he had known, he really wouldn't have dared to take in Chi Hun.

"Young master is kind-hearted. Please keep me by your side and let me serve you well."

Empress Qiuchi's face darkened, her expression turning hostile as she stared at Liu Chengfeng, practically demanding to know if such a thing had happened.

"Damn it, that's not true."

Liu Chengfeng's forehead was covered in black lines. When had she ever served him? He could never even see her shadow on ordinary days.

"What do you want?"

Empress Qiuchi was no child; she knew what was important and kept a close watch on Chi Hun, remaining vigilant.

"Your Majesty, I have no ill intentions. Otherwise, why would I have imparted the mental cultivation techniques to the young master?"

Chi Hun was too busy protecting Liu Chengfeng to dare to have any ill intentions; otherwise, Ye Huijian could have crushed her with one hand!
"The Tripitaka True Fire Heart Method, the Fiery Phoenix Furnace!"

Empress Qiuchi remembered; no wonder it sounded familiar.

"Your Majesty is very knowledgeable, and you are aware of this secret."

Chi Hun exclaimed in surprise.

"Don't use riddles."

Liu Chengfeng was dissatisfied, as he knew nothing about the origins of the Crimson Soul.

"She is the Grand Preceptor of the Flying Phoenix Kingdom, and the Fire Phoenix Furnace is the national treasure of the Flying Phoenix Kingdom, a semi-divine artifact." Empress Qiuchi revealed Chi Hun's identity.

Chi Hun, the national teacher of Fei Feng Kingdom, is a demon who has attained enlightenment and possesses a bewitching body.

She was even the youngest Great Dao Divine Treasure in the Flying Phoenix Kingdom, about the same age as Ma Xian, but she was a third-level Great Dao Divine Treasure.

"Wasn't the Flying Phoenix Kingdom destroyed?"

Liu Chengfeng was curious.

“There are not many survivors, and I am one of them. The Holy Sect of Ascending Dragon is hunting down survivors everywhere, so I have no choice but to hide my identity.”

Chi Hun sighed softly, his expression darkening.

"You want revenge?"

Empress Qiuchi stared at Chihun with an aggressive gaze.

Chi Hun opened his mouth as if to speak, looked at Liu Chengfeng, and finally sighed softly.

"I think the Tiger Emperor has done me a great favor. He died when the country was destroyed. I should avenge him to repay his kindness. Unfortunately, I am powerless to help him."

"Join us, and we'll take down Feng Wanli and destroy the Denglong Holy Cult."

Liu Chengfeng immediately extended an invitation.

Empress Qiuchi rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.

"Since you have invited me, young master, I will gladly accept."

Chi Hun was overjoyed, delicate and charming to the bone.

"Don't do that, it's giving me the creeps."

Liu Chengfeng felt a chill run down his spine; the Crimson Soul was captivating.

A powerful expert at the third level of the Great Dao Divine Realm was being so charming to him, making him feel as if gentleness concealed a knife.

"What type of person does the young master prefer? Cold as ice? Proud and mature? I can satisfy the young master's desires."

Chi Hun blinked, her eyes both alluring and mischievous, and she even gave Empress Qiuchi a defiant glance.

Empress Qiuchi's gaze turned cold, her killing intent sharp as a knife.

But Chi Hun was not afraid. He leaned towards Liu Chengfeng, his body soft and boneless.

Empress Qiuchi's gaze was murderous.

"Big sister, please have some self-respect. I'm not that kind of person."

Liu Chengfeng felt a chill run down his spine; this woman was not someone to be trifled with.

"Who are you calling 'big sister'?"

Chi Hun was furious. She opened her almond-shaped eyes wide and put her hands on her hips.

Empress Qiuchi felt very pleased and almost laughed out loud, though she was suppressing the corners of her mouth.

"Okay, okay, let's call her Little Fox."

"I will do as you say, young master."

These words pleased Chi Hun, who immediately changed her expression, becoming sweet and alluring.

Empress Qiuchi snorted coldly, finding this vixen displeasing.

"Her Majesty the Queen wants to hunt the lynx king, and I will go with her to lend a helping hand."

Chi Hun revealed his purpose.

"No need—"

Empress Qiuchi refused.

“Your Majesty, it is my duty to assist the young master in his cultivation. Moreover, I am also responsible for the young master’s safety.”

Chi Hun's words were half true and half false.

Liu Chengfeng must not be harmed in her hands, otherwise Ye Huijian will skin her alive.

"Let's go together."

Liu Chengfeng spoke up, feeling that things weren't that simple.

The last time Chi Hun appeared was in Yunmengze, it must have been when she fought the Lynx King.

Empress Qiuchi rolled her eyes at Liu Chengfeng, but ultimately agreed.

Three people, no, two people and a fox, set off.

Chi Hun transformed back into a fox and snuggled into Liu Chengfeng's arms, infuriating Empress Qiuchi to the point of wanting to kill her. She then stuck out her tongue in a show of defiance.

Liu Chengfeng was a little distracted, unable to connect the furry fox with her alluring and seductive demeanor.

I have a habit of reaching out to touch its furry head.

The little fox was arrogant, wanting to shake her head but letting herself be touched, and even looking at Empress Qiuchi in a defiant manner, but Empress Qiuchi ignored her.

Yunmengze is a vast and dangerous place, with waters stretching for thousands of miles.

Within the marshes, there are towering mountains reaching for the sky, bottomless ravines, and poisonous swamps shrouded in mist...

What is most terrifying is the unknown danger hidden within Yunmengze.

As soon as Liu Chengfeng and his group entered Yunmeng Marsh, they felt the overwhelming aura of wild beasts.

Tens of thousands of strange beasts inhabit Yunmengze, and those with a lifespan of less than five hundred years are as numerous as hairs on a cow.

Herds of wild bulls and jackals can be seen everywhere...

There are also rare and precious beasts that are thousands of years old. There is a 300-meter-long python coiled in the water, with a lifespan of 5,000 years.

There are also spiny turtles that lie in deep water, their shells resembling a grand palace, and they live for seven thousand years.

There are also demonic bats flying in the sky, with a lifespan of eight thousand years, whose shrill cries can kill other birds and beasts.

…………

"These are all walking spirit stones. Extracting their true blood can make a fortune."

Seeing so many strange beasts in Yunmengze, Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh.

Despite their words, Liu Chengfeng and his group did not kill the strange beasts; their target was the Lynx King.

Yunmengze is fraught with danger and should not be lingered in. There are many dangers there, and they dare not venture into it, instead taking a long detour.

For example, they saw the skeleton, which resembled a giant mountain, moving through the mist with a booming sound and flashes of lightning.

The fog covered a vast area, yet a portion of the skeleton was still visible, though its exact size remained unknown.

They also saw gushing fire springs, the flowing lava piling up to form a world of flames, and faint screams could be heard.

It seemed to be purgatory, where millions of wronged souls were being refined.

In the distance, a metal ancient village came into view, covered in cobwebs and dust, emitting a faint glow.

Every house in the village is made of a dark metal.

In the dim light, there was a clanging sound, as if someone was forging something.

…………

Upon seeing these strange and indescribable places, both Empress Qiuchi and Chihun appeared solemn and dared not approach.

Liu Chengfeng did not use celestial bodies to sense, so he did not know where the Black Emperor and the Ghost Palace were hiding.

If we summon the Black Emperor, we can wipe out all three of them.

"Where can we find the lynx king?"

Empress Qiuchi looked at Liu Chengfeng. Yunmengze was so vast; finding the Lynx King wouldn't be easy.

"There is an old palace in Yunmengze. The mountain lords of Yunmengze throughout the ages have all resided here. If you find this place, you can find the Lynx King."

Chi Hun stared into the distance, his eyes darting around.

"What was the purpose of your last visit to Yunmengze?"

Liu Chengfeng stared at her, not believing it was a coincidence.

"I came for a piece of ancestral clay."

Chi Hun frankly stated his purpose.

"The Flying Phoenix Kingdom was destroyed. In order to fight against the pursuit of the Ascending Dragon Holy Sect and to seek revenge, I seek the treasure Heavenly Splendor."

“I once learned a secret from a little demon: the residence of the Lord of Yunmeng Ze Mountain contains a piece of ancestral clay.”

"Therefore, he risked his life to come here, but he encountered the lynx king and was wounded. He was defeated and fled."

She escaped from Yunmengze and then met Liu Chengfeng, who treated her as an ordinary fox.

"Ancestral Mud—"

Empress Qiuchi's expression froze.

Above the national mud lies the ancestral mud, which is many times more precious and rare than the national mud.

National mud shield, ancestral mud wall.

The defenses of the ancestral mud are many times stronger than those of the national mud.

A piece of ancestral clay has a starting price of 500 million spirit stones on the market.

Empress Qiuchi didn't have any ancestral mud either; it was too expensive.

"If Her Majesty the Empress gets it first, I won't snatch it. We are both loyal to the young master."

Chi Hun blinked.

"Who is loyal to him?"

Empress Qiuchi glared at her coldly.

Chi Hun remained silent; even if she had a hundred lives, she wouldn't dare to mention Ye Huijian's matter.
