Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person

"Okay," Chen Ruoan readily agreed.

For those who cultivate themselves, sparring and exchanging techniques is a common occurrence. As Fang Dongtian said, every move and stance must have substance.

In this way, both sides can identify their own shortcomings and make up for their deficiencies by exchanging moves.

Besides, witnessing the wonders of countless methods in the world is a rare and interesting thing in itself. Chen Ruoan also wanted to see Lu Jin's "Triple Rebirth" and Fang Dongtian's "Astral Projection".

The location of the Inviting Moon Pavilion is remote and dangerous, and there is a medicinal field in front of the courtyard. Fearing that the two people and the fox would not be able to use their skills, they agreed to meet at Zhenyi Ridge for their duel.

Zhenyi Post is located outside the west wall of Bixia Temple, adjacent to Yunu Pool, and is a natural rock platform.

This place is ancient and secluded, rarely visited by people. On ordinary days, some Taoist priests would also come here to exchange ideas and discuss Taoism.

On the day of the duel, a cool breeze rippled across the bluestone platform of the martial arts arena. Chen Ruoan sat upright by the platform, her fox-like eyes slightly narrowed, watching Lu Jin and Fang Dongtian each take their stances and face each other intently.

Cultivating oneself in the mountains is inherently quiet and monotonous. When the elders of Quanzhen heard that there were young people exchanging skills, they were all eager to watch the excitement. They took some cushions from the ancestral hall and sat down around the area.

For some reason, Chen Ruoan was surrounded by three female Taoist priests.

Unlike the Taoist priests opposite who were focused on the martial arts demonstration, the three Taoist nuns were all preoccupied with the fox.

The reason is simple: the Goddess of Mount Tai rules over all foxes, so the Taoist priests naturally wouldn't discriminate against foxes in the slightest.

Furthermore, these three female Daoists had a deep affection for the clever and intelligent Xuanhu, but due to the propriety of their elders, they could not show their fondness. So, under the pretext of watching the martial arts, they got closer to take a good look.

"Little fox, I heard from the cave that you already understand human language and can transform into human form. Is that true or false?"

Before anyone knew it, a Taoist nun quietly moved closer.

"Yes."

"When you took human form, did you choose to be a man or a woman?" a Taoist nun asked with a smile, her tone full of curiosity.

"I have heard that when those who cultivate other forms first take human form, they can choose their gender. Once the human body is solidified, their original gender from the beginning is no longer relevant."

Chen Ruoan lowered her eyes and replied softly, "I'm male."

Defining one's own gender is just something from supernatural tales, so why do the female Taoist priests of Quanzhen Temple also love gossip so much?

The three Daoist nuns glanced across the way and saw that the eyes of their junior disciples were fixed on the martial arts arena and no one was paying attention to this side. So they quietly moved their cushions closer to Xuanhu.

"Black fur is already a rare quality among foxes. Your fur is so smooth and shiny, how do you take care of it? What do you eat on Aolai Peak?"

"Thank you for asking. I have never made any special effort to maintain my appearance," Chen Ruoan replied gently. "As for food, I have long since abandoned the animalistic habit of eating raw meat and drinking blood. There are ghosts in my mansion who take care of my diet and daily life."

"Then...can I touch your fur?"

After the gentle question was asked, Chen Ruoan was speechless for a moment.

The martial arts arena was already filled with the sounds of fists and feet clashing and energy surging. He had no time to watch the fight, but was instead entangled by the three Taoist nuns beside him.

Sigh, being a cute creature means there will always be people who want to handle it; even cute creatures have their unspeakable troubles.

Seeing that Chen Ruoan was distracted, a younger Daoist nun beside her suddenly spoke up: "It's really not much to see Junior Brother Dongtian spar with others. He is quite intelligent, but he has a bad temper and can't control his temper. On the other hand, the profound skills of that Lu family disciple seem to have some merit."

After saying that, she suddenly leaned close to Chen Ruoan and whispered:

"Little fox, since you wish to cultivate into human form, would you like me to impart a wondrous method to you? I will teach you to use the human body as a cauldron, essence, energy, and spirit as the medicine, and spirit as the fire, to refine the golden elixir?"

Ok?

Chen Ruoan turned her head to look at her, only to see the Taoist nun grinning mischievously and making a shushing gesture, as if she and the fox were secretly plotting something bad.

Seeing this, the other two nuns shook their heads helplessly, but did not reprimand their junior sister.

Since she is a fox, she considers the Bixia Temple her own home, so let her do as she pleases.

"The wondrous method of the Golden Elixir..."

The fox hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke up to express its gratitude: "Then thank you, sir."

"Can I touch you?"

"Hmm..."

Chen Ruoan's fox body trembled.

Selling one's appearance and looks in exchange for the secrets of cultivating the Golden Elixir—what's the difference between that and being kept by a sugar daddy?

A fox is a fox, but it is also a fox with dignity!

If a fox doesn't work hard, it will go from being a cute creature to a plaything!

"You can only touch it in the direction of your skin," Chen Ruoan said, letting go of her inhibitions.

Damn!

Playing with things is fine!

Chen Ruoan had been hugged by girls before, but this was the first time he had ever been stroked and soothed.

But this first time seemed to have opened some incredible "forbidden zone of experience"—

A fox's fur contains a rich array of tactile receptors and nerve endings in its hair follicles. Gently combing the fur in the direction of growth stimulates these nerves like a gentle massage, relieving skin tightness while smoothing the fur and removing surface dust...

In short, it can be summed up in two words—comfortable.

Someone gives you a massage, and you even get a free set of Taoist spiritual cultivation methods. That's why they say the master is the master, and the pet owner can only be the pet owner.

It's so nice to be cute.

Chen Ruoan's fox body was relaxed, her ears drooped softly, and her tail hung gently. In this comfortable and relaxed state, the competition ended, and Fang Dongtian was no match for Lu Jin and was defeated.

"Dongtian, you flatter me."

"You said it was the first level of reverse rebirth, which is a humble way of putting it." Fang Dongtian saw that Lu Jin had fair skin, and even his hair was whiter than before he circulated his energy.

"The Triple Rebirth Technique is truly mysterious. I'd like to see what it will be like when it collides with the fox's innate divine power."

Fang Dongtian turned around and saw the senior inside the sect combing the fox's fur, laughing and joking, gradually losing himself in the moment.

"Cough cough cough."

"Lu Jin, I heard from Zhang Zhiwei that this fox is a bit lustful. Foxes are naturally skilled at seduction. If you want to get closer to it in the future, you should ask the sisters in the clan to be careful. Judging from the way the three senior sisters are acting, I'm afraid they're going to anger Master."

"People naturally like beautiful things, so I don't think there's anything wrong with that."

Lu Jin spoke frankly, waving to the side of the open space.

"Brother Chen, it's your turn!"

"I still don't know what your innate supernatural ability is, Brother Chen."

When animals cultivate Qi, they usually awaken a special ability called "innate supernatural power" based on their habits and characteristics. However, it is rare for animals like Chen Ruoan to be able to generate multiple wish-based cultivation methods from a single supernatural power.

"Here it comes." The fox slightly bent its body and leaped out.

"Brother Chen, would you like to spar in fox form, or transform into human form?"

The slender-browed, narrow-eyed fox exhaled smoke, which swirled around its body and transformed into a handsome, tall young man in black holding an umbrella.

The moment Lu Jin lifted the edge of the umbrella, what first caught his eye was a pair of slightly elongated, deep and affectionate peach blossom eyes.

"Then, in human form, Brother Lu, please enlighten me."

「···」

"Brother Lu?"

"Ah...ah!" Lu Jin snapped out of her daze, hurriedly responding a few times, and looked at the "person" in front of her with suspicion.

That's strange, is this the first time Brother Chen has treated someone as a "human being"?

Perhaps even the fox itself didn't realize what kind of mysterious secrets were hidden within that strange, mixed cloud of smoke...

Foxes are indeed born with a knack for charm.
