Jade Dynasty: I am the master of the Burning Sword, my swordsmanship is unparalleled.

Chapter 94 A Lifetime Connection with the Fox Clan

Even though Zhang Xiaofan wished he could kill a villain like the Black-Hearted Old Man, he wouldn't feel such disgust or hatred. Even after his death, he would be willing to give him dignity and bury his body.

Ultimately, the two are simply different in the way they follow.

Zhang Xiaofan received the blessings of his master and sect throughout his life, and wholeheartedly upheld the righteous path, taking it upon himself to protect all living beings. In contrast, the Black Heart Old Man and others followed their own path, pursuing their own desires throughout their lives.

Ultimately, it's because we have different principles and cannot work together.

There is also a saying: "If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening!"

Therefore, everyone is an enemy of each other, good and evil are opposed, and the war has lasted for hundreds of years without truly ending. It is just that everyone is sticking to their own path.

Sects like Burning Incense Valley, which deceive the world, use banditry to build their reputation, and act perversely in the name of righteousness, not only contradict the path Zhang Xiaofan holds in his heart, but also deceive the world and fool the common people.

"Thank you, Taoist Priest!"

The fox demon was even more grateful to Zhang Xiaofan for speaking up for justice. It bowed deeply to Zhang Xiaofan, and its three huge fox tails also descended to the top of its head. This was the highest moon-worshiping ceremony of the Qingqiu Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.

"Get up, take me to see this."

Zhang Xiaofan gently waved his hand, lifted the fox demon up, and spoke softly.

After speaking, Zhang Xiaofan looked up at Lu Xueqi again. Without needing to say anything, Lu Xueqi nodded slightly and walked outside to keep watch and prevent anyone from approaching secretly.

"Thank you so much, Daoist Master! I will never forget your great kindness!"

The fox demon was very excited. As she spoke, she even offered up the Xuanhuo Mirror, seemingly not worried that Zhang Xiaofan was deceiving her and would go back on his word after obtaining the Xuanhuo Mirror.

Zhang Xiaofan reached out and took the Xuanhuo Mirror. As soon as he held it, he could clearly feel a warm power flowing into his body. He could also vaguely sense that there was a supreme yang power surging within the Xuanhuo Mirror.

Speaking of which, this item is quite suitable for Zhang Xiaofan to wield. The Burning Sword is a fierce fire-type sword, and he is the spirit of the Burning Sword. He is skilled in the way of Yang fire, and the Profound Fire Mirror is also an extremely Yang item. In his hands, its power can be greatly amplified.

Furthermore, the Xuanhuo Mirror is different from the Fenji Sword. The Fenji Sword is a vicious sword with excessive malevolent energy, while the Xuanhuo Mirror's power is extremely yang and strong, dignified and righteous, and suitable for setting up formations. Zhang Xiaofan himself is also very proficient in the art of formations.

Legend has it that the Xuanhuo Mirror is also a divine object created at the beginning of time. Perhaps it is a pair with the Zhuxian Sword, one being extremely yin and the other extremely yang. However, the Zhuxian Sword also contains the fifth volume of the Heavenly Book.

If one can comprehend its formation, it is probably not much weaker than the Immortal Execution Sword, and may even be stronger. After all, the true strength of the Immortal Execution Sword lies in the Immortal Execution Sword Formation built upon the Qingyun Mountain Range.

After casually tying the Xuanhuo Mirror to his waist and hiding it inside his belt, Zhang Xiaofan saw the white fox leap forward and followed it.

Zhang Xiaofan's cultivation had reached the Shangqing Realm, and he possessed numerous magical treasures. Furthermore, the fox demon had entrusted him with the Xuanhuo Mirror, so he was not worried that the fox demon could harm him again.

The fox demon was probably worried that Zhang Xiaofan wouldn't trust her and that they would miss their only chance, so she took a desperate gamble and risked everything to try and save her beloved.

Before long, Zhang Xiaofan followed the fox demon to a small hill in the forest. There was a cave entrance on one side of the hill, and the surrounding rocks were all black. It was the Black Stone Cave.

Led by the fox demon, Zhang Xiaofan followed her deeper into the black stone cave, and soon they arrived at a precipice.

"Master, my brother is suffering from the icy blood poison and has no choice but to hide by the magma underground, hoping to use the power of the earth's fire to suppress the cold energy within him. There are also many demons hiding below, so please be careful when you go down." The fox demon trusted Zhang Xiaofan a lot, or rather, she regarded Zhang Xiaofan as her only hope. To avoid Zhang Xiaofan misunderstanding, she patiently explained.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan simply nodded, but somehow he had taken out the Azure Heaven and Yellow Spring from his hand. Then, to the fox demon's astonishment, he was the first to fall downwards.

The fox demon paused for a moment, then quickly followed suit and looked down.

Below this precipice, there is an ancient well that looks like it has been magnified a thousand times, and it goes straight down. Moreover, as you fall further down, all sorts of strange creatures gradually appear in the darkness around you, hiding in the caves in the cliff face.

However, these strange creatures seemed to sense some terrifying aura, and one by one they retreated deeper into the cave, as if an incredibly terrifying monster was patrolling outside the cave.

The fox demon was more familiar with the terrain than Zhang Xiaofan, so it quickly caught up and flew into a cave after landing below.

Zhang Xiaofan followed, and after turning a couple of times in the cave, the scene before him suddenly changed, revealing a huge underground cavern.

Ignoring the crimson lava inside the cave, Zhang Xiaofan's gaze fell directly on a giant white fox on a stone platform in the center of the lava lake.

The white fox lay quietly on the stone platform, seemingly unaware of the scorching lava around it. On its back, six forked tails, perfectly harmonious, curled quietly, exuding elegance and beauty.

As if sensing the aura of the three-tailed fox demon, the giant six-tailed fox demon slowly opened its eyes, but when it saw Zhang Xiaofan in front of it, it suddenly froze on the spot.

After a long while, the six-tailed demon fox seemed to come to its senses. Its tired voice, tinged with surprise, echoed in the underground cave.

"It seems that the Taoist priest has a special connection with my Qingqiu Nine-Tailed Clan. I can even sense a sense of closeness from the Taoist priest's soul."

"Ok?"

Zhang Xiaofan frowned slightly. Could it be because he had awakened his Star Essence? So, his soul carried the aura of his past life?

Upon seeing this, the three-tailed fox demon rushed forward, went to the stone platform, gently picked up the huge white fox, and explained in a low voice.

"Brother, don't worry. This Taoist priest is different from those other so-called righteous people. He is a truly compassionate and enlightened person. He has already promised me that he will help you."

Upon hearing this, the six-tailed fox demon showed a pained expression, smiled at the fox demon, and then looked at Zhang Xiaofan, pleading in a low voice.

"Master, my thousand years of cultivation have been destroyed in an instant, and my blood and qi are completely depleted. I am powerless to save her. I dare not let you waste your efforts. I only beg you to take my little sister back to the sect and spare her life."

"Big brother, I don't want to, I won't go, you go..."

Seeing the three-tailed fox demon and the six-tailed fox demon arguing, Zhang Xiaofan was annoyed. While the two were talking, he made a hand seal and the Mo Xue sword flew out, absorbing the cold poison from the six-tailed fox demon's body.

At the same time, from the depths of the underworld, a surge of powerful blood energy flew into the body of the six-tailed demon fox.

Suddenly, the two fox demons, who had been holding hands and gazing at each other with tearful eyes, froze on the spot.
