Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person

Chapter 118 The Celestial Fox Descends!

The fox's rebirth?

As Zuo Ruotong was pondering Chen Ruoan's words, the fox had already carried the injured patriotic soldier beside him and retreated to a safer area further away.

After running far away, Chen Ruoan instructed the people in his inner world to support each other in their escape, and then turned and rushed towards the front-line war zone where the Japanese army was pursuing and intercepting them.

The perilous scene of the battlefield was reflected in the fox's eyes, and Chen Ruoan sighed, "This is truly a world where foxes cannot cultivate in peace..."

Maintaining the reverse life force is extremely taxing on one's mind and energy. If one could cultivate to the point of being in harmony with the divine, allowing the five elements and four symbols to naturally gather together, and then, as the vital energy flows through, life would naturally be endless. However, Chen Ruoan has not yet reached this level.

"I'm not waiting anymore."

The black fox stood proudly in the sky, drawing upon the Qi stored in its lower dantian, filling the five internal organs with primordial Qi, harmonizing the five elements, and then flowing along the meridians to the limbs and bones.

When the body is truly full, it transforms the skin and flesh, and then causes the five internal organs, bones, and blood to undergo a brief transformation, thus completing the state of "reverse rebirth at the second level." After that, one no longer strives for the advancement to the third level, but instead gathers away the acquired means under the influence of the five energies, so that the three treasures are bright and the energies return to "one."

In this state, the colorful light emanating from the fox's body will fade, turning into a more natural rosy hue, and its jet-black fur will become pure and clear, transforming into a snow-white hue.

"This is!?

'

While covering the retreat of the National Salvation Army, Zuo Ruotong looked back at the horizon.

The fox perched in the heavens, its fur as white as snow, yet not the ordinary white of the mortal world. Its paws trod on pale white flame clouds, and mysterious and profound cloud energy swirled around it, hazy and ethereal. The mist gathered behind Chen Ruoan, transforming into nine long tails that stretched out in the air, pure white as smoke and light as clouds.

If you look closely, you can see three golden patterns carved with cloud-like threads between the fox's eyebrows, shimmering with a faint glow.

"A fox with nine tails?"

"Celestial Fox".

Zuo Ruotong recalled ancient records of foxes with nine tails, living for thousands of years, their fur as radiant as the sunset, and capable of transforming into human form. First appearing in Qingqiu, born from the essence of heaven and earth, neither demon nor evil, they either bewitched rulers to warn the world, or hid in the mortal realm to refine their hearts, passionate yet spiritually pure. The dark sky seemed to have ripped open; in this war-torn land, on this land trampled by enemies, everywhere was a somber, deathly gray, yet now, she could still see such a radiant glow, such a pristine expanse of white—

The nine-tailed celestial fox stood amidst the clouds in the sky, sacred, noble, elegant, and exquisitely beautiful. Its posture was aloof and unapproachable, and its body was surrounded by flowing rosy light, yet it remained undisturbed by dust.

The National Salvation Army had to flee and preserve the seeds for future battles, so most of them had no time to look at the horizon. But if you ask the anti-Japanese veterans in Northeast China in the future, perhaps some of them will still remember the glow of the sunset over Laoheishan Mountain and remember that day when auspicious signs appeared!

Swish!

White mist poured down from the sky, spreading across the mountains and forests, swallowing up all surrounding vision.

The Japanese soldiers who were pursuing with guns suddenly stopped, raising their guns to aim at the fog. In the chaotic white fog, two gilded cold eyes slowly rose and fell coldly.

"Invaders, there is no way forward."

Bang bang bang—

Gunshots rang out, bullets pierced the fog and crashed into the boundless white expanse. The fog continued to slowly advance, and the Japanese soldiers were at a loss, unable to discern any movement within it. Only when a massive shadow approached did they realize with astonishment that a huge fox shadow lurked deep within the white fog.

Chen Ruoan's front paws were planted on the black rocks protruding from the mountain. Three Japanese soldiers were biting into her sharp mouth. Her sharp teeth had already pierced through the bodies of the three men. The blood from their corpses dripped down from the gaps in her sharp teeth, flowing onto the fox's fur and rolling into beads before smoothly falling to the ground.

The filthy blood of the invaders is not worthy of polluting this pure white land.

Bang bang bang!

A barrage of bullets exploded, piercing the fox's body without leaving a trace.

Chen Ruoan raised his giant claw and slammed it down, instantly killing the leading Japanese soldier who was charging forward.

"Ughhhhh!"

A mournful howl echoed through the ranks. Even the soldiers, who knew a little about the Japanese supernatural community, were filled with utter terror. This fox was not like the legendary shikigami created by the Onmyoji through magic. This snow-white giant fox was more like a genuine demon from legend.

According to legend, the final form of a Japanese fox spirit's training is a white-faced nine-tailed fox!

She is skilled in sorcery and possesses the power to bewitch people. She is the most intelligent and beautiful woman in the world, her body naturally exudes a captivating fragrance, her clothes are always in pristine condition, and she is learned and omniscient!

One of the Japanese soldiers screamed in terror, "Tamamo-no-Mae! It's the great demon Tamamo-no-Mae!"

"Oh?" Chen Ruoan listened to the shouts mixed in with the gunshots: "Disgusting, trying to drag the fox into your little life again."

What nonsense about Tamamo-no-Mae? This is Chinese territory. No matter how you look at it, you should still call me Su Daji, right?

It is said that this method of scattering and gathering is truly invincible in the midst of gunfire. The "Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox" form, which is derived from the "Triple Rebirth", can be called unparalleled in the world.

The white fox charged forward relentlessly, breaking through the dense encirclement with white mist.

The Japanese rear received news from the front: "Report! Something unknown has intervened in the battlefield. It's like fog; gunfire and artillery shells have no effect on it. The troops marching due west have been brought to a standstill!"

The Japanese soldier in command, a seasoned veteran, immediately grasped the key point in the message: "Damn it, if it's just fog, how can it stop you! That thing can hit your midsection, and it can also hit you with bullets! Counterattack!"

"yes!"

After shouting out his orders, before he could even take a sip of water, news came from the front lines: "That thing's regenerative ability is too strong!"

"Send the artillery over there!"

"In that case, the encirclement in the northwest will lack firepower, and we won't be able to stop the enemy!"

"Damn it!" The battlefield commander was furious. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had been missed. The Tsuchimikado family's revenge had not yielded any results, but instead introduced a force that could sway the battle into the battlefield.

"Withdraw...retreat..." the commander said weakly.

"That thing is still chasing us!"

"You're asking for it! Keep shooting at it!"

"It took away the explosives we used to block the road!"

"Um?"

"It went towards you, sir!"

"Um!?"

On my end?

The Imperial Inhumans I used for protection were all wiped out a long time ago!

The Japanese soldier hurriedly ran out of the command tent and used binoculars to look towards the front line.

Oh no, something is coming in a cloud of smoke!

Chen Ruoan had explosives hidden in his abdomen. Looking down, he saw several canvas tents with a radio and field telephone line in the middle, guard posts on the perimeter, and a simple cooking shed in one corner with packhorses tethered there.

In the battlefield, the role of the superhuman is mostly to assassinate the enemy's commanders and high-ranking leaders. This move by the fox can be considered as a return of favor in daily life.

Come!

Tell me, what is art?

Chen Ruoan carried the explosives and detonated them with the Japanese soldiers below.

The explosives used to destroy the mountain road may not have been particularly powerful, but the command camp behind the battlefield still had a batch of spare ammunition boxes stored.

boom!

As the explosives were dropped, the stored ammunition boxes detonated one after another, the canvas caught fire, the heat wave blew the tents away, the enemy's communication equipment was reduced to scrap metal, the Japanese pirates screamed and fled, the packhorses neighed and ran wildly, trampling over cooking utensils and tarpaulins.

The once orderly rear camp was suddenly reduced to a chaotic and desolate ruin.

Chen Ruoan flew over the sea of ​​fire behind the battlefield and headed towards the front line. At this time, the Japanese invaders were in chaos in the rear and their pursuit at the front was hindered. They had almost no confidence to continue to advance. The well-equipped battalion of Kuroshio slowly retreated to the rear. The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army broke out from the northwest and escaped to safety.

The torture inflicted on the Japanese invaders during the retreat was not yet over.

The main force reunited, but streaks of fire would occasionally fall from the sky and explode in the middle of the formation.

"What happened?"

"The enemy's armed forces are weak, they simply don't have airplanes!" The Japanese soldiers looked up and saw that invulnerable thing was causing trouble again.

Chen Ruoan grasped a handful of foxfire in his right paw and casually threw it to the south. He then gathered a handful of green poison in his left paw and casually threw it to the north. He dropped "bombs" like an airplane for a while until the energy consumed by maintaining the "Heavenly Fox" form and using his methods reached its limit. Only then did the fox fly northwest against the wind.

Chen Ruoan withdrew his methods, and the white fox transformed back into a black fox.

Not far away, Zuo Ruotong and his disciples were dealing with the aftermath of the battle, ending the lives of the few surviving Bai Banruo.

Upon seeing Chen Ruoan, the members of the Sanyi Sect greeted him warmly: "Uncle-Master Fox!"

"How have you all been? I hope no one lost their lives in the fighting just now?"

The group was filled with shame, some scratching the back of their heads, others scratching their cheeks, none of them behaving properly. It was Shuiyun, the most senior disciple, who took over the conversation: "To be honest, as soon as the barrier broke, we scattered around the battlefield, so no one lost their lives."

Normally, self-preservation would be a matter of course, but the group did not expect that after their master and Uncle Fox escaped from the barrier, they would resolutely run to the battlefield to rescue people.

The instructors went to fight desperately, while the apprentices ran away early. The fox couldn't help but laugh when he saw their ashamed and embarrassed expressions.

Both Zuo Ruotong and Zhang Jingqing are worthy of the title of "teacher," but in terms of their teaching methods, the former is more like a "kind mother" and the latter is more like a "strict father." Perhaps because of this, the disciples who grow up under the guidance of the Immortal Daying always find it difficult to distinguish whether they should follow Zuo Ruotong himself or follow the "Tao" in their hearts.

"It's good that you're alive." The fox gave the awkward group a way out, ending the strange atmosphere.

Zuo Ruotong gazed at Chen Ruoan, recalling the incomparably holy and beautiful white fox in the sky, and extended her hand forward: "Fellow Daoist An, your reversal of life has shown me something different."

The fox transformed into human form and shook hands with the Great Ying Immortal: "Left Sect Leader, I have also seen something new in your reversal of life."

"Um""

core.

The members of the Sanyi Sect bent down, their eyes all falling on the two people's clasped hands, and then scrutinizing the two figures, one in black and one in white.

Master and Uncle Fox are saying strange things. As the saying goes, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed." There must be a profound and mysterious meaning hidden in these strange words. But what is hidden in the reverse life of the human and the fox?

The group huddled together and began to whisper among themselves.

If there's anything different, it's the light surrounding Master and Uncle Fox. If an ordinary member of the San Yi Sect were to use "Reverse Life Triple Technique," they absolutely couldn't emit such a dazzling glow. "I understand!" someone clapped their hands.

The remaining fellow disciples looked at him with hopeful eyes.

The disciple said knowingly, "It's very simple. It must be the brilliance of humanity shining through the two seniors! Master goes without saying, and Uncle Fox has basically succeeded in transforming into a human being."

"Hey!" The group waved their hands dismissively.

Shuiyun, the most senior and most talented disciple, remained silent, secretly glancing at the two seniors. Perhaps these foolish junior brothers hadn't noticed that when their master and Uncle Fox were using "Reverse Life," it wasn't just the light that was strange, but also the changes in the surrounding environment.

From a distance, the man and the fox seemed to blend seamlessly into their surroundings.

After the Sanyi Reform, the sect's theoretical practice integrated the classics of the three religions. Shuiyun remembered that an ancient book said that before a person achieves success in cultivation and ascends to immortality, he will have a wonderful experience of "dissolving the body in the world and preserving the spirit in nature". He will feel the connection between himself and the world and then return to the "Tao". Now that I think about it, is the opportunity to reach the heavens that Master has been pursuing quietly right in front of us?

Shuiyun knew this was a baseless fantasy, but she still couldn't help but smile.

My master is single-mindedly pursuing the profound truth, and has attained enlightenment near the end of his mortal life. How could I, as his disciple, not be overjoyed?

Beasts often have to go through seven tribulations to cultivate. With Uncle Fox's cultivation and character, how could these tribulations possibly stop him?

Shuiyun nodded and smiled, then joined her fellow disciples in chattering away.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chen Ruoan escorted the group for a while.

It was a remarkable miracle that the poorly equipped National Salvation Army of over a thousand men suffered fewer than two hundred casualties during the enemy's surprise attack and encirclement.

At this time, the fox was unaware that the team that had successfully escaped had moved to Longgang East, laying the foundation for the future construction of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces' secret camp, and achieving several good victories in the Mudanjiang and Hailin areas.

In the spring of 1933, in a major industrial town in eastern Hebei.

A swarm of invading maggots has arrived on this land, and along with it, the weather has turned bad. Although it is spring, the temperature is unbearably hot. If you take a few more steps, it feels like you have fallen into a honey pot. Your clothes are soaked with sweat and stick to your skin, making you feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Oh no, the railway is cut off, the highway is blocked, and we've taken the wrong turn. How are we going to get to Shandong if we keep going like this? If we keep running, we'll end up in the Northeast." Wei Shufen gently stroked the memorial tablet in her arms and murmured softly.

Just then, several deep voices came from behind.

"Sister Wei!"

"I've already told you, I'm younger than you, don't call me 'big sister'!" Wei Shufen protested, turning around. Behind her stood three soldiers in their mid-twenties, who were staring at her with innocent smiles.

"Sister Wei, your medical skills are truly amazing! Why don't you consider coming with us and becoming a military doctor in our unit?"

Battles broke out along the Great Wall. Due to the harsh environment, water pollution, and the recent sharp rise in temperature, many members of the team died from diseases such as malaria and dysentery.

Wei Shufen asked, "Weren't the sick in the team cleared out? Are there new patients?"

"No, this is just taking precautions!" the man said with a carefree laugh.

"I still need to find someone."

"Oh..." The soldier pursed his lips. Looking at the memorial tablet in the girl's arms, he knew that there were many stories behind her. There were some things that were not easy or convenient to ask.

The younger one had something on her mind, and after thinking about it, she finally spoke up.

"Sister Wei, your methods are not something ordinary people can possess, are they? I want to ask, can I be a little more ruthless with those things in your jar? When I'm fighting those Japanese devils, I want to leave a few more cuts on those bastards."

"have."

Wei Shufen fiddled with the Gu jar, inside which was a powerful Gu that could greatly stimulate the human body's potential at the cost of burning one's life; it was a tragic and heroic Gu.

"Could you give us a few?"

"Yes, but it's best not to use it lightly unless absolutely necessary, as the price of this Gu is very high." Wei Shufen raised her right hand, and three Gu worms slowly crawled to her palm.

"Give us a few more, we have plenty of brothers!"

Wei Shufen then took out a few more.

"The Li Gu is a love-following Gu, which originally only takes effect within a certain range around me. However, I combined it with the Sheng Gu, breaking this limitation. You can use it, but once the Gu worm enters your body, many things will no longer be under your control."

"Thank you, Sister Wei!" The three smiled as they accepted the Gu artifact, and one of them suggested, "Come on, let's salute Sister Wei!"

The three men put their five fingers together and pressed them against their foreheads. Because of the loose organization, the standardization of the hand salute was far from mature, and the distorted movements made the three men look somewhat clumsy and cute.

"Mm," Wei Shufen nodded in response.

"Hey, Sister Wei, you can reciprocate our greetings too! We're comrades now, aren't we?"

Wei Shufen held up the memorial tablet in her right hand and the gu (a type of ancient Chinese ritual vessel) in her left: "I'm holding something in my hands. Also, don't call me 'elder sister'!"

"Hehe, although we don't know who our eldest sister is looking for, you have a kind heart as a doctor, so good luck will come your way! After the battle at the front is over and we drive out those little devils, you have to come visit Tangshan Street! The three of us will treat you to a meal!"

The three of them, carrying the Gu, hurriedly caught up with the group.
