Fox Demon Crossing

"How could I not want to intervene?" Dongfang Guyue paused for a moment, then sighed, "The problem is, I don't even know the identity of the enemy. Besides, if what he said is true, the other party is either a god or an extremely powerful evil spirit."

"Alien evil spirit? You mean..."

"Foreign forces..."

Dongfang Guyue said with emotion: "I have a feeling that this kid will either become a great master or a great demon king in the future."

……

a few days later.

Thousands of miles away from Shenhuoshan Villa.

The morning dew wet the grass, and two figures walked slowly forward. In the past few days, the feelings between Jin Renfeng and Dongfang Huaizhu have heated up sharply. Originally, they both had a hint of reserve in their hearts, as if separated by a layer of gauze. But after that incident, the gauze was torn, and the feelings were out of control.

"Junior Sister Huaizhu, cultivation is not a one-day job, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself."

"Brother Jin, you don't need to persuade me. I know what I am doing when it comes to cultivation."

"..."

He looked at the tenacity in Dongfang Huaizhu's eyes and smiled helplessly: "Okay, okay, you know what's going on, so I won't say anything more."

"But..." He changed his tone and continued, "I wonder what you think of my strength?"

"Senior brother is naturally very strong."

"How about I guide you in your training from now on?"

Dongfang Huaizhu looked embarrassed and hesitated, "Will this hinder my brother's practice?"

"Won't."

Jin Renfeng explained: "I will have nothing to do in the next period of time. There is a saying that goes, a master can only lead you to the door, but the practice depends on yourself. I will guide you when I am free. If you don't understand something, you can ask me. Don't try to figure it out on your own."

Dongfang Huaizhu whispered: "Brother, this is not my first time practicing. My father has taught me. Among the younger generation, my strength is at least at the middle level."

"Brother, do you remember there is a small village not far ahead? I passed by there when I took Qin Lan into the mountains to collect herbs a few years ago. Let's go and take a look."

"it is good."

Dongfang Huaizhu secretly clenched his fists and thought: "Brother, I will never let you fall too far behind me. I hope that when the crisis comes, I can fight side by side with you instead of standing behind you."

She swore that she would never be a vase in her life.

I don't know how long it took.

Dongfang Huaizhu suddenly pointed to a place not far away and said, "Brother, look, that's the village I was talking about."

"I still remember there was a kind and smiling old lady and a little monkey. Brother, let me tell you, that old lady..."

Jin Renfeng listened quietly with a smile on her face.

The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the village.

"Something's wrong, there's a fishy smell." At the entrance of the village, Jin Renfeng suddenly grabbed her, his eyes solemn. Although the fishy smell was strong, he was still keenly aware of it. It was not easy to bring Dongfang Huaizhu out, could it be such a coincidence that there was an emergency?

He's not some gun barrel washing machine.

Dongfang Huaizhu said worriedly: "Senior Brother."

"It's okay, let's go in and take a look." Jin Renfeng relied on his superb skills and courage to look at the simple houses on both sides. The whole village was quiet. It stood to reason that it was early morning, and even if there was no smoke from cooking, there should be people moving around.

I'm afraid there is something wrong with this village.

As they walked and checked, they found that almost every door was closed. They searched the entire village but didn't see any sign of life.

"Strange, where did all these villagers go?" Dongfang Huaizhu asked in confusion: "Brother, what did you find?"

The two walked out of the house, and Jin Renfeng said, "The house is very clean, everything is there, it feels like these people left on their own."

"Yes, there is still some leftover rice in the pot, but it has gone moldy. It looks like the family has been gone for at least three days."

"By the way, Senior Brother, didn't you say you smelled a fishy odor before entering the village?"

"Yes, I did smell it, but the stench was very faint." Jin Renfeng frowned and said, "I thought it was coming from the village, but now it seems that it may have been blown over from a place not far from the village."

"Let's go to the west." Jin Renfeng recalled that the breeze just now was blowing from the west.

The two of them each controlled their own tools and flew up.

Although Jin Renfeng can already fly, he prefers the feeling of being down to earth, which gives him a sense of security.

As his cultivation reached the perfection of foundation building, the virtual pill in his body was also gradually transforming. According to this progress, Jin Renfeng calculated that if it was not suppressed, the heavenly tribulation would come in half a year at most.

Heavenly tribulation... has been a sword hanging over the heads of cultivators since ancient times.

Cross over and seek immortality.

If you fail to make it, you will die and there will be no afterlife under the heavenly calamity.

Moreover, after the Jindan realm, each major realm will have different heavenly tribulations, which are the punishment (test) of heaven for those who try to surpass. Only after overcoming them can one be qualified to move forward, so there is a saying that cultivating immortals is going against heaven.

If you follow the rules, you will be ordinary; if you go against the rules, you will be immortal.

The Jindan realm is the dividing line between immortals and mortals.

The two men headed west, flying for several miles, and finally landed in a forest.

There were more than a dozen corpses on the ground, all of them died in miserable ways. Some had their stomachs ripped open, some had their hands and feet chopped off, and there was blood all around. The scene was extremely cruel.

Dongfang Huaizhu's face was pale, her body was trembling slightly, and her beautiful hands were tightly holding the bamboo flute. It's not like she had never seen a dead person before, but the scene before her still shocked her.

"Brother, these people..."

Jin Renfeng took a quick look and replied, "Yes, it looks like they are from the same village as before."

"How could this happen?!" Dongfang Huaizhu couldn't believe it. This was the heartland of mankind, and yet such a cruel and inhumane thing happened.

"Damn it, these damn monsters." Dongfang Huaizhu gritted his teeth.

There was no change in Jin Renfeng's eyes. This place was remote, backed by mountains and boundless, making it the most suitable place for fleeing monsters or little monsters who had accidentally awakened their spiritual intelligence to survive.

He remembered that every year, Shenhuoshan Villa would conduct large-scale inspections of the mountains to prevent any monsters from hiding in them.

He also led the team a few years ago.

Just fly the sword back and forth among these mountains a few times.

But this shouldn't be the case.

A few days ago, he had asked Suzaku to patrol the mountains in this area. As a monster, Suzaku is more sensitive to monster energy than humans. According to her, she did not find any place with monster energy.

Jin Renfeng didn't believe that Zhuque would lie to him.

This is normal. After all, this is the territory of the human race, and there are generally no foreign monsters. The name of Shenhuoshan Manor is well-known to all monsters with a little knowledge. Unless there is a lucky animal that accidentally eats some spiritual creature, it will open its spiritual wisdom and turn into a monster.

"Brother, look, these people... they seem to be quite old. Where are the young people and children in the village?"

Dongfang Huaizhu tried hard to suppress his inner discomfort, examining the scene before him, and suddenly he had a surprising realization.

In fact, Jin Renfeng had already noticed it, but had never shown it.

"Don't panic, let me figure it out." He took out three bronze coins from his pocket and threw them on the ground. His eyes fell on the coins and he had a rough idea in his mind.

Since leaving the strange world before, he could no longer sense the inner spiritual realm, as if the rules of that realm only existed in that world. Now that he was in the city, he could not enter the spiritual realm, and naturally he could not do divination, after all, he was not a professional psychic.

At this moment, it seems as if there is an invisible thread connecting to the distant place in the dark.

He understood that this was the guidance of his subconscious mind.

Jin Renfeng gently hugged Dongfang Huaizhu beside him. As she cried out in surprise, he was in a trance for a moment, suddenly remembering that he could no longer use the power of the Yang God, and even the escape technique that came with it could not be used.

So, the scene at this time became: a man and a woman standing in front of a pile of debris, hugging each other tightly.

But this did not faze him. Jin Renfeng said softly, "Don't move. This will be faster."

As soon as the words fell, a golden figure appeared behind them, with his hands on the shoulders of the two men. The three of them instantly turned into a stream of golden light, flying away into the distance like a meteor across the night sky.

On the other side, in a small town thousands of miles away, a business team of more than 20 people was preparing to set off. They all held magical instruments and were obviously not easy to provoke. Their destination was the Beishan Demon Country.

"Lao Fang, why are you so slow every time? You always make us wait for you."

"I'm coming……"

A short middle-aged man came running over with a smile on his face.

"Hmph, I think you will fall into the hands of a woman sooner or later." The man snorted coldly.

The man called Lao Fang didn't mind at all, and was rather proud: "Third brother, life is short, you should enjoy it when you can. Besides, if what we did is exposed, we will lose our heads. I would rather die in a woman's arms."

"Shut up!"

The man growled, and with eagle-like eyes he scanned the surroundings, frowning and saying, "You're crazy. If someone hears this, we're all done for."

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Lao Fang smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, Third Brother. This is not the first time. As long as there are no traitors among us, no one will find out. Our boss has a strong background."

"Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly!"

After everyone gathered, the team started to set off, with ten carriages moving forward on the asphalt road.

"Fourth brother, you are arguing with third brother again."

In the carriage at the end of the convoy, Lao Fang was sitting outside drinking. He glanced at the young man driving the car and said, "You haven't known him for the first time. He is timid and cowardly. If he is not extremely powerful, how can he be ranked ahead of me?"

"Yes, yes, yes." The young man agreed, "Everyone says that Third Brother is steady, but everyone knows it. I think Third Brother is suspicious all day long. He is not steady at all, but timid."

"Haha, I like to hear that."

Lao Fang burped and laughed, "Little Sixteen, Fourth Brother is telling you, even though we are all brothers now, that's just superficial. We are together to make money."

"Brother, I joined your caravan with the intention of making money. A lot of money. When I make enough money, I will buy a house in a small town and become a landlord. I will also marry a dozen beautiful wives. How wonderful it would be, hiccup~"

The young man said, "Fourth brother, I have the same idea. My eldest brother said that if we want to quit one day, we can tell him. As long as we promise not to reveal the secrets of the caravan, he can lift our curse and let us leave with the money."

"Leave?" Lao Fang paused and couldn't help sneering.

"Fourth brother, what are you laughing at?"

The young man was puzzled. Seeing that Lao Fang turned his head away and looked unwilling to talk, he became anxious. Suddenly, an idea came to him. He gritted his teeth and took out a small bag of banknotes from his pocket.

Looking at the banknotes handed over, Lao Fang immediately smiled and said, "Never mind, for the sake of money, I'll remind you a few things."

"You say."

"Don't ever think of leaving unless you can find a way to lift the curse."

"what?"

The young man's face changed drastically, his hands shaking involuntarily as he drove the coach, and he felt extremely uneasy.

"I was too naive at the beginning. I was blinded by the immediate benefits and joined without thinking." Lao Fang smiled bitterly and whispered, "I suspect that those who left in the end are dead."

"This……"
