The imperial city wasn’t far from this place, which was around a four hours journey. The imperial city was massive, and at least tens of thousands of Heaven Monarchs were inside. The entire imperial city was also constructed by wood, and even so, they had gorgeous appearance. The whole place was filled with lush green leaves, fresh flowers, and ancient trees—making one feel as though they entered a giant fairy’s city.
Jiang Yi didn’t have the mood to appreciate the scenery as he followed Tuoba Qin into the great hall in the center of the large castle. Inside there was an ancient large array. Without instructions from Tuoba Qin, over a dozen elders were waiting by the side of the array. Tuoba Qin nodded to Jiang Yi and said, “I just need a drop of fresh blood from this little one.”
Jiang Yi took out the Thearch Palace and teleported the little fox out. This little fox had been asleep all the time, and Jiang Yi simply tossed the little fox to Tuoba Qin.
“Activate the ancestor’s array!”
Tuoba Qin yelled out while all the elders struck out white demonic energy at the same time. That array’s blurry pattern lit up which was carved with pictures of spirit foxes. All the five-tailed, six-tailed spirit foxes seemed as though they came alive, and they were all rushing out to form an image. They were dancing high above the hall and were roaring out silently. In a single glance, there were at least thousands of foxes, and there were close to 100 six-tailed foxes.
“So mystical!”
Jiang Yi was silently shocked. These fix-tailed and six-tailed Heaven Foxes might not have any aura presences, but those icy cold eyes still caused Jiang Yi’s heart to palpitate. If these Heaven Foxes were alive, they would definitely be Heaven Foxes at the Demon Thearch and Demon Sovereign Realms.
Tuoba Qin used one hand to grab onto the little fox’s paw while her other hand radiated with essence force. She then gently drew across the little fox’s paw, causing a few strands of fox fur to drop off while a few drops of blood dripped from the little fox’s paw. Tuoba Qin then casually swung and sent those drops of blood into the great array.
Buzz!
The images of the foxes in the array all lit up brightly and started an even faster dance. Many foxes were roaring silently while their fur was all standing straight, emitting powerful beast prowess and giving off this oppressive aura.
Tuoba Qin gently tossed the little fox over towards Jiang Yi. She closed her eyes, and her hands were glowing with demonic energy as she was preparing to activate the great array, using it to detect the little fox’s mother, the Demon Empress’ aura presence.
Buzz!
Right at this moment…!
Something strange happened. The little fox, which was asleep for many years, suddenly opened its eyes. Its pearl-like eyes were misty as its body involuntarily flew into the great array. All the fix-tailed and six-tailed fox images were flying into the body of the little fox. In just a blink of the eye, dozens of fox images had rushed into the little fox’s body!
“My god, the divine ancestors’ soul seeds are actually vanishing?”
“Ah? Why is such a thing happening?”
“Thearch, we need to stop it quickly, this little fox is devouring the divine ancestors’ soul seeds!”
“Little fox, stop devouring the divine ancestors’ soul seeds, or we will kill you without mercy!”
“…”
The elders were all flabbergasted, and they were getting exasperated as they yelled out sternly. A few of the elders were actually preparing to make a move. Tuoba Qin was also filled with an astonished expression as she stopped everything and shouted, “Everyone is not to move. This little fox must be extraordinary to be able to devour the divine ancestor’s soul seeds. She might have a minute amount of divine lineage in her bloodline. Otherwise, she would be able to devour the divine ancestors’ soul seeds. Everyone is to observe before making any actions!”
“This…”
Jiang Yi was also anxious as the little fox’s sudden change was truly frightening him. He had a very good relationship with the little fox, and he had promised the Demon Empress to take good care of it. Since Tuoba Qin had said it, he didn’t dare to many any reckless movements and looked at Black Deity and Qianqian.
Black Deity’s eyes lit up with black light as he took a few closer looks at the little fox and said, “Don’t worry. Nothing will happen to the little fox. It is actually a great opportunity for it.”
Qianqian nodded and transmitted a message: “Jiang Yi, your little fox is getting a great deal. These so-called soul seeds should be mystical demonic energy left behind by the Heaven Fox’s previous generation experts using a powerful ability. If the little fox can absorb this demonic energy, it would definitely be able to evolve in a short period of time. This time, it might even evolve into a Demon Thearch or even a… Demon Sovereign!”
“Demon Sovereign?”
Jiang Yi blinked his eyes, but he still had this grave expression. He didn’t bother about the little fox’s strength as long as it was safe and sound.
The little fox was floating in the array, and its eyes were dazzled. Its body slowly revolved while the Heaven Fox images were burying into its body.
Less than ten minutes later—after almost 1000 fox images rushed into the little fox’s body, the little fox stopped revolving and suspended peacefully in the array.
“Ji-Ji~Ji!”
Suddenly, the little fox was crying out with pain, and its eyes were filled with agony. Its tiny body was trembling violently while its clear eyes were looking around. After seeing Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu, its eyes flashed with white light; and two messages appeared in Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu’s mind.
“Big Brother, Xiao Fei is so uncomfortable, quickly save me!”
“Big Sister Xiaonu, quickly save me.”
Buzz!
Jiang Yi’s body flourished with aura presence and wanted to rescue Xiao Fei while disregarding everything. The back of Jiang Xiaonu’s dress had burst open as a pair of wings appeared while her green claws emerged as she rushed towards Xiao Fei immediately with brimming killing aura.
“Get back here!”
Black Deity’s body flashed as he appeared behind Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu with horrific speed and grabbed onto them. He then yelled out harshly, “Don’t move, or you will be killed by the great array.”
“En?”
Jiang Xiaonu’s eyes flashed with green light as her claw was about to slash at Black Deity ruthlessly. She didn’t care so much as she only wanted to rescue Xiao Fei. If anyone dared to obstruct her, she would kill that person.
“Xiaonu, stop!”
Jiang Yi was shocked. If Black Deity was to get infuriated, he could simply extinguish Jiang Xiaonu with a single move.
Jiang Xiaonu’s claws were already approaching Black Deity’s neck. After hearing Jiang Yi’s words, it forcefully stopped while Black Deity’s eyes revealed a trace of mockery. He spoke to Jiang Xiaonu with a cold voice, “Little lass, your temperament is rather fiery uh? Do you believe, this one can kill you with a glare?”
“Lord Black Deity, please calm down. Xiaonu is just ignorant!”
Jiang Yi quickly spoke with an apologetic smile while Qianqian mediated and said, “Uncle Black, you should be magnanimous and don’t be petty with Little Sister Xiaonu.”
“Hmph!”
Black Deity let out a cold grunt and withdrew his hand while Jiang Yi pulled Jiang Xiaonu as he was afraid she might act rashly again. The two of them looked towards the center and had bewildered eyes.
“Ji-Ji…”
The little fox was still crying out while suffering, but its body lit up with rainbow radiance while its body was getting bigger. Its three tails suddenly split open in the middle as another tail slowly emerged.
“Heavens!”
“This little one is evolving!”
“Could this little fox be the legendary Divine Fox who possesses the divine bloodlines? Otherwise, how could it devour the divine ancestors’ soul seeds and evolve?”
The elders were all filled with alarm as they muttered non-stop while Tuoba Qin’s eyes were flourishing with radiance and had an excited expression. She waved her hand and yelled out, “Everyone is to keep quiet and don’t affect the Divine Fox from evolving!”
At the same time, she looked at the little fox with gentle eyes and said, “Little one, don’t worry, you are not in danger. You are just evolving. We are all members of your race. With us around, you will not have any danger. After you evolve, we will help to look for your mother, okay?”
Jiang Yi also quickly transmitted a message: “Xiao Fei, don’t be afraid and concentrate on evolving. We are in Heaven Fox Continent now, and after you finish evolving, we will go look for your Empress Mother together.”
The little fox’s terrified heart was slowly calming down as Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu were both here, which made it relieved. It then closed its eyes and started to evolve while having peace of mind. Another tail slowly emerged from its back—and then another tail… which caused Tuoba Qin and the others to be ecstatic. Five tails meant the strength of a Demon Thearch. If the little fox grew one more tail, it would be a Demon Sovereign.
