204: Red-tailed demon fox, obtain the third-level demon pill

Thinking of brothers killing each other within the Family, Lin Yongmao thought of himself and Lin Yongrong.

Lin Yongmao originally didn't want to interfere with the grievances between Ye Yi and Ye Hong, but Ye Hong was useful to Lin Yongmao, so he stopped Ye Yi.

Ye Yi pursed his lips, an unwilling expression appearing on his face, "Senior, can you hand him over to me to deal with?"

Lin Yongmao shook his head, but after a moment of thought, he immediately said, "He possesses a Metal Heavenly Spiritual Root, and he is useful to me. However, after I'm done with him, I can hand him over to you."

After all, Ye Yi was the Lin Family's window in Yang City, so Lin Yongmao had to give him some benefits.

If Ye Yi could become the Clan Chief of the Ye Family in the future, then a closer cooperation could be established.

Lin Yongmao flicked his sleeve, and several Storage Pouches flew into his hand. These spoils of war rightfully belonged to him; others had no reason to divide them.

Those Mystic Marrow Liquid were also inside.

Lin Yongmao used his Divine Sense to probe into the Storage Pouch, and there were a hundred bottles of Mystic Marrow Liquid.

Besides the Mystic Marrow Liquid, there were also some spiritual plants and Ores.

The most valuable item was a Jade Slip, which surprisingly contained the Legacy of a Tier 3 Artifact Refiner.

This could be said to be the Ye Family's most important Family Legacy. He never expected Ye Hong to have the ability to steal this Jade Slip.

In the end, it didn't fall into the hands of the Spirit Transmission Sect, but it benefited Lin Yongmao instead.

Lin Yongmao naturally wouldn't return it to Ye Yi.

After settling this matter, Lin Yongmao and Lin Yucheng decided to leave. They planned to leave the Yang City area and return to Qingyang.

Lin Yucheng looked at Ye Yi. He had some of Lin Yongmao's shadow on him, as resolute as Lin Yongmao. Lin Yucheng said, "Ye Yi, we are preparing to leave. Take care of yourself!"

"Senior, I haven't yet taken the position of Clan Chief..."

"Haha," Lin Yucheng laughed, "Your Family is a behemoth. My strength is low, so I'll help you after I reach the Core Formation Stage in the future!"

Lin Yucheng was unwilling to take Lin Yongmao on any more risks.

Lin Yongmao originally planned to use the [Instant Teleportation] function to directly teleport to his mother Han Yuying's side, but he had to escort Ye Hong.

It was impossible for [Instant Teleportation] to carry other people; Lin Yucheng couldn't leave together, and neither could Ye Hong.

Ultimately, he still decided to cross the Qingyang Mountain Range.

Lin Yucheng carried the unconscious Ye Hong on his back, while Lin Yongmao followed behind Lin Yucheng. Both of them had Demon Saliva Grass juice smeared on their bodies, so the Yao Beasts dared not approach them.

It was precisely by relying on the Demon Saliva Grass that Lin Yucheng could repeatedly cross the Qingyang Mountain Range.

This Demon Saliva Grass was not a simple spiritual plant; it belonged to Tier 4 spiritual plants. Although it had no medicinal properties, it carried the powerful aura of a Tier 4 Yao Beast.

As long as there was Demon Saliva Grass, Yao Beasts below Tier 4 dared not approach even a single step.

In the Qingyang Mountain Range, Lin Yongmao, led by Lin Yucheng, traversed one ancient forest after another. Towering trees blocked out the sun, making it practically sunless to move through them.

No wonder so many birds, beasts, and poisonous insects bred within, and these birds, beasts, and poisonous insects then became Yao Beasts.

This was completely a paradise for Yao Beasts.

...

The Red-Tailed Fox was Cultivating. She continuously absorbed Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and her demonic power was also slowly increasing.

Yao Beasts do not Cultivate as fast as immortal cultivators; they are more influenced by their innate Bloodline. They Cultivate very quickly in the early stages, but it is extremely difficult to Breakthrough when they encounter a Bottleneck.

Currently, her cultivation had reached the Tier 3 Middle Stage. Breaking through from the Tier 3 Middle Stage to the Tier 3 Late Stage was a major hurdle, which might take her more than ten years.

"Should I go look for my aunt?" the Red-Tailed Fox thought to herself.

However, she quickly dismissed this idea. Her aunt was in seclusion, and if she rashly disturbed her, it might backfire.

Just as she was about to continue Cultivating, she felt a powerful aura.

This powerful aura was not from an immortal cultivator, but from a fellow Yao Beast.

"This... could it be that my aunt has come out of seclusion?"

The Red-Tailed Fox had felt this aura last time, but she didn't have the courage to investigate. This time, however, she decided to take a risk.

"Aunt, is that you?" the Red-Tailed Fox called out.

Lin Yongmao and Lin Yucheng heard this voice. It was very soft and delicate, making one's bones feel a little numb, which reminded Lin Yongmao of a Mermaid.

But compared to a Mermaid, this voice also revealed a seductive charm.

The Red-Tailed Fox appeared and bumped right into Lin Yucheng and the other two.

"Humans?"

"A Tier 3 Middle Stage Yao Beast, a Red-Tailed Fox!"

"Why do you have the aura of our kind on you?"

The Red-Tailed Fox was shocked at first, then became disdainful. Two Cultivators who hadn't reached the Core Formation Stage—weren't they just coming to deliver snacks to her?

Lin Yucheng didn't reply, but instead planned to speed up and leave. This time, the Demon Saliva Grass surprisingly didn't work, or rather, it accidentally attracted the Red-Tailed Fox.

"Want to leave? No way!"

The Red-Tailed Fox exhaled a cloud of pink mist, which spread and formed a large area of flames.

This was the Red-Tailed Fox's innate ability—Fox Fire.

This Fox Fire could be said to be a one-hit kill against ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators, and it could also cause considerable damage to Golden Core Stage Cultivators.

But who she encountered was Lin Yongmao.

[Nanming Li Fire]

A scorching flame flew out from his Dantian, and in the blink of an eye, it completely devoured the red fire. Instead, the Nanming Li Fire became even more turbulent.

Lin Yongmao controlled the Nanming Li Fire, making it spread towards the Red-Tailed Fox. Under the control of the Fire Control Technique, it transformed into a nimble fire crow.

The fire crow circled the Red-Tailed Fox once, igniting all the fur on her body. In an instant, the Red-Tailed Fox turned into a burning fireball.

The Red-Tailed Fox never dreamed that she would actually be defeated by flames. She was a fire and illusion dual-attribute Yao Beast. Her illusion-attribute abilities had not yet been fully developed, but this Fox Fire was her strongest killing move.

After being ignited by the Nanming Li Fire, the Red-Tailed Fox tried her best to extinguish the flames, but she found that she simply couldn't do it.

Even if she spat out her Yao Core, wanting to rely on the violent energy within the Yao Core to put out the fire, she simply couldn't do it.

The Red-Tailed Fox showed an expression of pleading for mercy. She bowed to the immortal cultivator, and moreover, to an immortal cultivator whose cultivation was far inferior to her own.

"Please, put out this fire!"

Her voice was mournful and beautiful, making people feel pity.

Lin Yongmao, however, snorted coldly. A sword soul grass leaf flew out, transforming into a Flying Sword that cut off the Red-Tailed Fox's head.

[Soul-Stirring Thorn]

A Divine Sense attack detached from his body. Lin Yongmao's Divine Sense materialized, turning into a thorn that pierced through the Red-Tailed Fox's Divine Soul.

A Tier 3 Yao Beast's Divine Soul is powerful. Even if its Physical Body is destroyed, its Divine Soul will not immediately disappear. He wanted to prevent any possible accidents.

A red fox's phantom shrieked. She never expected that life and death would be decided in such an instant. The overlord of the Qingyang Mountain Range would actually die at the hands of a human.

Lin Yongmao put away the Red-Tailed Fox's Yao Core and body, and quickly left with Lin Yucheng.
