Chapter 500: Awakening of the Terrestrial Fox

In the next instant, his entire tiny body was enveloped in pitch-black flames.

Strangely, under the burning of these black flames, blood-red smoke suddenly began to rise from his tiny body.

After the blood-red smoke had completely burned away, the Terrestrial Fox Black Flame withdrew into Tushan Qing’s body.

His body, which had originally been completely black, underwent a transformation.

A patch of earthy-yellow markings resembling rippling waves appeared on the forehead of the little fox. Fur of the same color also grew around the tips of all four paws and at the ends of his ten tails.

He actually awakened the complete Terrestrial Fox form.

No wonder none of the bloodline inheritors had been able to awaken the complete form throughout all these years. So awakening the complete form actually requires tempering with our clan’s terrestrial-vein sacred flame.

Then, for a Celestial Fox bloodline inheritor to awaken their complete form, they probably need to be tempered by the celestial-vein sacred flame.

Unfortunately, the terrestrial-vein sacred flame has already appeared in the world, while the celestial-vein sacred flame remains nowhere to be found.

Seeing this, Tushan Shanhe silently thought to himself.

At the same time, Xiao Shou also breathed a sigh of relief.

When he had heard Tushan Qing’s words just now, he had summoned the complete form of the Little Flame without giving it much thought and let it obey Tushan Qing’s orders.

However, only after Tushan Qing swallowed the Terrestrial Fox Black Flame and it began burning his body did Xiao Shou remember that the Terrestrial Fox Black Flame possessed the ability to devour evil and filth.

He immediately became extremely worried that Tushan Qing was burdened with too much sin and karmic debt, causing the Terrestrial Fox Black Flame to burn him. 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

For a moment, he did not know what to do.

After all, Tushan Qing was notoriously reckless and unrestrained in the Azure Feather Spirit Realm, and his actions were infamous for being bizarre and sinister. Given such a way of doing things, it would actually have been strange if he did not carry any sinful karma.

Seeing this, Xiao Shou was just about to order the Little Flame to return when Tushan Qing, as though he had seen through his thoughts, transmitted his voice.

"Ah Shou, don’t worry. The terrestrial-vein sacred flame will not harm the Terrestrial Fox bloodline. It will only help the Terrestrial Fox bloodline."

At the time, Xiao Shou was only half-convinced by Tushan Qing’s words.

But then he saw the extraordinary changes in Tushan Qing.

After the new earthy-yellow fur had grown out and the Terrestrial Fox Black Flame had withdrawn into his body, Xiao Shou suddenly felt that he could sense something within the tiny body resting on his shoulder.

There was a connection between their bloodlines.

It seemed as though his own bloodline was being suppressed by some kind of power, giving him an involuntary urge to submit to Tushan Qing.

Only then did Xiao Shou finally believe Tushan Qing’s words.

Everyone’s thoughts and Tushan Qing’s transformation would take a long time to describe, but the actual change occurred in an instant, so quickly that even the Immortal had no time to stop it.

The moment Immortal Chenyin saw Tushan Qing swallow the strange flame that had been so troublesome just moments ago, the very flame Tushan Shanhe had called the sacred flame, he immediately had a bad feeling.

Without saying another word, he controlled the twelve immortal swords and sent them slashing toward Tushan Qing and Xiao Shou.

Under Xiao Shou’s horrified gaze, Tushan Qing suddenly flew upward.

His four limbs looked tiny and frail, yet every time he lightly stepped into the void, a large expanse of hard, solid earth emerged beneath his feet and floated in the void.

After several light steps, by the time he reached the twelve incoming immortal swords, a vast stretch of land had already formed behind him.

Once Tushan Qing stood upon the earth, he seemed like a completely different being.

Facing the twelve immortal swords stabbing toward him, his tiny body opened its mouth and released a roar that sounded like the descent of an ancient god, tearing through the void.

At the same time, that roar caused something incredible to emerge from nothingness within the void.

A gigantic, sturdy earthen-yellow shield suddenly appeared in front of the twelve immortal swords. After the twelve swords stabbed into it, they became trapped for a moment and struggled to break free.

This seemed to be within Tushan Qing’s expectations.

The moment he released that roar, his body had already shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, charging toward Chenyin, who was wrapped in golden radiance, using both his mouth and claws to attack.

"Hmph! Even if you trap my immortal swords, it is useless. With that little bit of attack power, how could you possibly break through the defenses of blue mandala?"

Seeing this, Immortal Chenyin snorted coldly.

Immortal light surged throughout his body as a tremendous amount of immortal power was poured into his immortal armor. In an instant, the defensive immortal light barrier surrounding the armor expanded several meters around him.

Previously, faced with such defenses, Tushan Qing had been completely helpless and could only retreat.

But this time, he charged straight forward.

The instant his sharp claws struck out, a strand of pitch-black flame wrapped around them. With the movement of his claws, the black flame tore through the immortal armor’s defensive barrier in an instant and reached directly in front of Chenyin, seemingly startling even him.

The cultivators watching from the sidelines saw Immortal Chenyin move the moment Tushan Qing broke through the defensive barrier, with ominous black flames wrapped around both his mouth and claws.

The faint sense of danger he felt from the black flames caused him to instinctively move to a place far away from Tushan Qing without hesitation, making it look as though he were simply dodging Tushan Qing’s attack.

Naturally, Tushan Qing immediately pursued him.
