Reincarnated As A Fox With System

Chapter 1171: Ancient City Ruins!

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy, Lu Xingchen, and Little Loki found themselves surrounded by the ancient ruins.

"There is actually a hidden place like this in Dark Valley!" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy exclaimed in surprise.

She had already explored the Dark Valley’s pheripery with Xi’er and Lucia, but they had failed to find this place before.

It should be mainly because they only look around from the sky at that time while riding on Lucia’s back.

In short, they should only be able to enter this place on foot!

"We have to be more careful here because this place might be more dangerous than when we fought those living skeletons just now." Lu Xingchen solemnly warned Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.

Lu Xingchen took a few steps forward and pointed his sword at the patterns carved on the stone floor, then explained: "There should be a huge killing formation set to protect this place before, but after a great battle, it had already been shattered along with all the buildings here, leaving only these ruins behind."

"Although the huge killing formation had already been shattered, some of the incomplete killing formation fragments could still function from time to time." Lu Xingchen uttered to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.

"How strong is the power of those incomplete killing formation fragments? Can it threaten the Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator?" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy asked curiously.

In the perfect copy’s opinion, only something that could threaten the Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator could also pose some threat to her.

Lu Xingchen shook his head and replied: "I also do not know for sure because the power of these incomplete killing formation fragments varies from each other, but the powerful one should be able to threaten the Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator."

If it were the real Tang Li Xue, she would have already hesitated to continue further, but Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy did not really care about the danger since she could not really die or be killed anyway.

If she met with any great danger later, she could just shout to ask for the real Tang Li Xue for help through their mind connection, and the real Tang Li Xue only needed to use [Twin Moons] divine ability to resummon her back to [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] any time.

While Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and Lu Xingchen were busily observing the surrounding ruins and the incomplete killing formation fragments on the floor, Little Loki had already jumped down from the perfect copy’s shoulder and wandered around curiously.

Previously, Little Loki had already secretly picked up all the Soul Crystals from the undead skeletons that had been destroyed by Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and Lu Xingchen, but it still did not feel satisfied yet, so it tried to find more snacks in this place.

Despite the dark, gloomy, and eerie atmosphere, all of the collapsed buildings here actually still looked quite magnificent.

They should have looked much more impressive when they were still intact.

"These ruins look like a fallen ancient city. Unfortunately, all the good things should have already been taken away." Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy shook her head in disappointment.

"I found the previous ores from the abandoned mine to the south of these ruins. Do you want me to bring you there, Junior Sister Li? We might be able to find more of those ores there." Lu Xingchen offered to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.

Just when Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy almost nodded her head in agreement, Little Loki suddenly used [Instant Teleportation] and appeared on her shoulder.

"Meeow~!" Then Little Loki tapped its paw on the perfect copy’s shoulder and pointed its paw to the center of the ruins.

"You mean you have detected some valuable treasures over there?" The perfect copy’s topaz blue eyes shone in excitement.

Little Loki nodded its tiny furry head smugly.

"Okay, let’s go there then~!" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy impatiently headed in the direction pointed by Little Loki.

"Wait a second, Junior Sister Li! That direction may not be a good place to explore! I also wanted to explore that place before, but I ended up giving up because it was too dangerous." Lu Xingchen hastily warned Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.

"Too dangerous?" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy tilted her head cutely.

Lu Xingchen thought Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy looked really adorable and wanted to pat her head or touch her furry fox ears.

Lu Xingchen swallowed his saliva to hold down the urge while explaining to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy: "There are ancient palace ruins at the center of these ancient city ruins. When I tried to explore that place, I saw an undead general guarding in front of the ancient palace ruins from afar."

"Just the overwhelming aura emitted by that undead general, I could easily guess that I could not match him, so I gave up in the end." Lu Xingchen concluded his story.

"Oh~?! Ancient palace ruins and an undead general? Interesting~!" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy smiled sweetly and felt even more curious about that place.

Whether Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy, they always thought that the more dangerous the place was, the more precious the treasures they could find or loot there.

Of course, the real Tang Li Xue usually acted more prudently and cautiously, while her perfect copy always acted more boldly and recklessly.

"Let’s go and check that place first! I want to see how strong the undead general guarding the ancient palace ruins is!" Tang Li Xue said again as she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Void Barrier] to turn herself invisible and undetectable.

Little Loki also followed Tang Li Xue by activating its [Void Lurking Boots]’s ability, [Void Lurking], which also turned itself invisible and undetectable.

In the end, only Lu Xingchen stood among the ruins alone, without anyone accompanying him.

"Uh, wait~! Hello? Are you there?" Lu Xingchen shouted to call Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy, but no one responded to him.

Lu Xingchen: "....."

Lu Xingchen’s lips twitched slightly in helplessness.

He invited Tang Li Xue to explore this place together, but he still ended up being left alone in the end.

Lu Xingchen cautiously proceeded alone to the ancient palace ruins while carefully avoiding stepping into any incomplete killing formation fragments.

In fact, when Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy wanted to hastily head to the ancient palace ruins with Little Loki, she immediately remembered the scattered, dangerous, incomplete killing formation fragments.

Finally, Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy halted her step and let Lu Xingchen lead the way while she and Little Loki, who had turned invisible and undetectable, only followed right behind Lu Xingchen.

After all, Lu Xingchen was a Formation Master, so avoiding these incomplete killing formation fragments should be a piece of cake for him.

Lu Xingchen could really skillfully avoid activating the incomplete killing formation fragments, but who knew that it was Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy who accidentally stepped into the incomplete killing formation fragments instead?!

WEEENG—!

The pattern under the perfect copy’s feet suddenly shone with dreadful crimson light!

"Not good!" Lu Xingchen shouted in a solemn tone.

"Opps~! Uh, sorry..." Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy murmured guiltily.

RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—!

The scenery around them suddenly changed again to the battlefield!

One side was the army in full black armor, and on the other side was the army of living skeletons!

"Kill them! Kill them all!" The commander of the black armor army yelled out loud.

"UWOOOOOOO—!"

The army in full black armor charged fearlessly in a neat battle formation and clashed head-on against the army of living skeletons!

BOOOOOM—!

Even Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and Little Loki, who were in the invisible state, were affected by their violent clash!

The powerful rolling shockwave and the spreading oppressive aura forcefully broke their invisible state!

Lu Xingchen, Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy, and Little Loki were actually trapped in the midst of the fierce and bloody battlefield!

Before they had time to think about how to get out of this incomplete killing formation fragment that accidentally got triggered, dozens of living skeletons in various forms already charged at them!

"Damn it!" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy gritted her pearl-white teeth as she condensed a slender white sword with her [Energy manipulation] and Profound Law of Earth.

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy also infused Sun Dragon Flame, Flame of Pride, and [Sharp Edge Power] buff into the slender white sword in her grasp!

The slender white sword became much heavier, sturdier, and sharper because of the power of the Profound Law of Earth and [Sharp Edge Power].

Meanwhile, the infused Sun Dragon Flame and Flame of Pride made the slender white sword emit terrifying heat.

Just when the dozens of living skeletons were attacking her from all sides...

[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins—!

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy took a quick circular step while spinning the slender white sword with great force!

CLANG—! CLANG—! CLANG—! CLANG—! CLANG—!

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy repelled all the living skeletons’ attacks in one go, then she twisted her slim waist and swung her slender white sword!

[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter—!

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy rapidly stabbed and slashed her slender white sword toward the living skeletons’ flaws and cut all of them down!

Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were actually not quite fond of fighting in a melee battle, especially against the enemies, who had mastered the Profound Laws, because the injuries they dealt to her could not easily be recovered with her super-fast regeneration.

Unfortunately, she did not have any other choice in the midst of this chaotic battlefield.
