One person and many beasts were walking toward a giant mountain shrouded in clouds and mist. When they approached the foot of the mountain, the beasts stopped and knelt down one after another. Some small animals even crossed their front paws together in a kneeling ceremony.
"Let's go, they don't dare to move forward!" The white fox waved his hand, signaling the beasts to disperse.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Chen hurriedly followed, but when he looked at the back of the white fox walking slowly in front of him, a strange color flashed in his eyes.
"The fox tribe is one of the most psychic races, and the nine-tailed fox is the top among the fox tribe. I can sense your mood. If you have anything you want to ask, just ask, so as not to save this fox fairy from absorbing your soul! "The white fox moving forward suddenly spoke.
Lu Chen was a little embarrassed when he heard this. This is his strength. "I should call you senior, and please tell me the relationship between senior and this place!"
Lu Chen spoke simply and directly. He could tell that the nine-tailed fox walking in front of him was very familiar with this place.
"Relationship?" White Fox whispered, very sad.
He slowly shook his head and said, "This is my first time here too!" The little white fox looked very lonely.
"First time?" Lu Chen was surprised. The little white fox knew this place very well. It was not like it was the first time he came here, especially the beasts outside. He could sense that between him and the white fox, the beasts preferred Stay with the white fox.
"Well, they are just because we are all beasts, and the nine-tailed fox is the top race among beasts. It is normal for them to like to stay with this fox fairy. This world makes them somewhat knowledgeable. Spirit!" White Fox sighed.
Lu Chen suddenly realized that he still had many questions, but he didn't know how to ask them. The white fox in front of him had begun to speed up.
Time passed, and soon, a man and an animal stood in front of a monument, an unnamed monument with no words or information on it.
The stone stele was broken, with only half of it remaining. The other half of the broken stele had long since disappeared, and the remaining half also left many traces of wind and rain.
"Let's go!" Lu Chen reminded the dazed little white fox.
There was no information about the nameless monument. The little white fox didn't say anything. He just stared at it in a daze, with a trace of confusion in his eyes, as if he was searching for memories from the depths of his mind.
"Great witch... thank you!" The little white fox suddenly spoke, with his paws clasped in front of his chest, very piously, and his voice was choked with sobs.
Lu Chen frowned, "Is this the monument of Senior Wu?"
He was a little surprised that an unknown monument could be the belief of all the five tribes. The tombstone of the great witch made him unbelievable. He also did not expect that the tomb of the great witch would appear in the innermost part of Shiwan Mountain.
The white fox slowly shook his head, "This is the monument erected by the great witch for my mother!"
"Your mother, senior nine-tailed fox?" Lu Chen asked.
The white fox slowly shook his head, "I don't know either. I haven't seen her since I woke up. Everything is just a memory. My mother is the top powerhouse of the Fox clan, a ten-tailed sky who only meets once in ten thousand years." fox!"
"What? Ten-tailed celestial fox?" Lu Chen exclaimed.
The ten-tailed sky fox was an extremely rare existence in rumors, comparable to top existences such as dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns. I never thought that the little white fox mother in front of me could be so terrifying.
"Then you are also a ten-tailed sky fox?" Lu Chen asked again, "Why does the high priest keep calling you little nine-tails?"
The white fox shook his head, "The cultivation of the Fox Clan is somewhat similar to that of the Phoenix lineage. Even its branches are also about nirvana and rebirth. Our Fox Clan is about evolution, but this world is no longer suitable for cultivation, and ten-tailed celestial foxes cannot be born!"
Nodding, looking at the nameless stone tablet in front of him, Lu Chen stepped forward, lit three sticks of fragrance and handed them to Bai Hu. Seeing this, the latter took two breaths to recover, stretched out his fox paw to take the lit fragrance, and faced the stone tablet. Bowed three times again.
"This is the mother of this fox fairy. Do you want to steal her?" The white fox looked at the young man beside him with a strange expression.
When Lu Chen heard this, he almost vomited blood. This little white fox's brain circuit was too fast. He had never heard of snatching a mother. Even if there was one, it was still alive. A person who had been dead for who knows how many years would not be able to snatch the ashes. .
Seeing the young man beside him rolling his eyes, the little white fox's eyes flashed with a hint of gray. He bowed again and placed the fragrance in front of the nameless stone tablet.
"Let's go
! "The white fox waved and was about to move forward, but Lu Chen shook his head, "Wait for me for a while!" After saying that, the figure disappeared into the dense forest.
Not long after, there was a banging sound in the dense forest, and then, he appeared with a piece of bluestone on his back.
boom!
With a loud noise, the bluestone fell to the ground, half a foot high. The spiritual power surged from the tip of the index finger, condensing into a tip. With a wave of the hand, six desolate characters appeared on the bluestone of the Tomb of the Ten-Tailed Fox.
"Senior, your old stone monument has gone through the baptism of time and has long been damaged. The junior has the courage to build a new monument for the senior. Senior, don't blame me!"
After saying that, he turned back to ask the little white fox and obtained the latter's consent before replacing the newly built stone tablet.
Not long after, two more bluestones were found from the dense forest. He waved his sword in his hand. After a quarter of an hour, two lifelike stone lions appeared and placed the two stone lions on both sides of the new monument.
Looking at the brand new stone tablet and the two lifelike stone lions, the little white fox was a little lost in thought. He looked back at the young man who disappeared into the dense forest again, with a little mist rising in his eyes.
Waving the fox claw, mysterious runes fell on the brand new stone tablet one by one. This place is located deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Without the blessing of other powers, this bluestone will be destroyed in a short time.
"It's not easy deep in the mountains!" Lu Chen sighed, carrying two pine and cypress trees as tall as one person on his shoulders and falling from the canopy. It was a bit difficult to find two smaller saplings here.
"Senior, this is a human custom. I will plant two hero trees for you!"
"Do you humans still have such a saying?" The little white fox was surprised.
Lu Chen nodded. In fact, he didn't understand much. He only heard it occasionally, "The hero tree next to the tomb means evergreen and reincarnation!" After transplanting the two hero trees, Lu Chen patted the soil on his hands and said.
"Let's go!" Lu Chen saluted again, turned around, and walked towards Shanuchi.
Looking at the figure that was about to disappear in the dense forest, "Thank you!" A soft voice sounded, echoing in the open space.
"Let's go!" A call came from the dense forest.
"Here we come, why bother?" The little white fox muttered, walked to the stone monument, and gently stroked the cold stone monument with his front paws, "Mother, I'm leaving!"
A breeze blew, gently swirling around the white fox, blowing its white fur.
The figure of the white fox disappeared in a flash, and after a long time, "Hey!" a sigh sounded in the open space.
On the tomb that was built an unknown number of years ago, a huge shadow seemed to be slowly taking shape at this moment, staring at the person and the fox disappearing in the dense forest.
"Is it right in front?" Lu Chen asked the white fox sitting on his left shoulder.
"It should be!" The white fox is not sure. Everything here was told to it by the high priest, and it has never been here.
Lu Chen frowned. The surroundings looked very different from what they looked like from a distance.
In the distance, there is a huge peak towering into the clouds. The top of the mountain is not visible due to the shrouded clouds and mist. At the moment, it is a valley, surrounded by pieces of gravel submerged in soil and weeds.
Such a scene made Lu Chen couldn't help but think of Linghua Town, "I don't know if you are okay!"
Lu Chen sighed a little. The scenes from back then echoed in his mind. I am afraid that this journey started from Linghua Town. From Linghua Town to Xianling Palace, his trajectory completely changed.
"It is rumored that this is the true birthplace of the five races!" Looking around, Bai Hu suddenly spoke.
"The birthplace of the five tribes?" Lu Chen was surprised. He had never thought that the birthplace of the five tribes was actually the deepest part of the Shiwan Mountain.
"It's been too long, everything is just rumors, and I don't know much about this Fox Immortal. However, there is indeed an inseparable connection between this place and the five tribes."
Lu Chen listened quietly. These were secrets that had long been buried on the mainland, especially the mysterious five races. Even the top sects in the Central Region might not know these secrets.
"This..." After hearing what the little white fox said, even Lu Chen looked in disbelief, "The existences in Huanyue Cave are really the great witch and the beast god?"
"That's the method left by the great witch. She was worried about the resurrection of the immortal beast god, so she separated his condensed body and spiritual consciousness to suppress it. One Hundred Thousand Mountains
What is suppressed internally is the physical body, but what Huanyue Valley suppresses is the spiritual consciousness! "
"That's it!" Lu Chen couldn't help but nodded as he recalled everything that happened in Huanyue Cave.
"How powerful is the Beast God? Can he stand shoulder to shoulder with the old war god ape?" He marveled at those days in ancient times. What kind of years could have given birth to so many powerful men who defied the will of heaven.
Have all these powerful men perished in the long river of time?
This question lingered in his mind like a mystery. From the moment he came into contact with Ge Lao, it opened up his understanding of the world. He still didn't quite believe that those strong men were really because their longevity was approaching?
The little white fox shook his head and expressed ignorance. He knew very little about the powerful people on the mainland and the secrets.
Looking at the huge rocks scattered around and half-buried in the soil, Lu Chen stepped forward and gently brushed the stone surface, "These runes..." A strange color flashed in his eyes.
The seemingly simple bluestone carvings were completely different from the bluestones outside Linghua Town. As he brushed his fingers, he could detect a faint flow of power.
"This should be what the great witch left when he sealed the beast god. It has experienced the baptism of time and collapsed, and it is not surprising that it contains other energies!" The little white fox nodded and said.
Lu Chen shook his head and marveled in his heart. The level of contact between him and the little white fox was different. In his eyes, this method of retaining energy after endless years was already incredible.
"What a weird rune, is this the power of witchcraft?" Lu Chen couldn't help but say.
Outside the Hundred Thousand Mountains, many forces have experienced endless years of baptism and have long lost their energy. Even the powerful spiritual array is the same. Existences such as spiritual arrays require energy to maintain, but the current witchcraft is a completely different kind. The power seems to be borrowing for one's own use.
"Are you surprised that witchcraft can be borrowed from outside forces?" The little white fox saw Lu Chen's surprise and couldn't help but ask.
Lu Chen nodded and expressed his thoughts.
