Chapter 115 Destroying the Tribe
As Taibai gazed at these still stubbornly ignorant beings, a silent sigh swept through his heart.
He was reluctant to start a killing spree, but given the current situation, he had no choice but to establish his authority with swift and decisive action.
More importantly, the Incense Refining Divine Path was a method he passed down to the primordial world, and he had to settle this matter personally.
If he hesitates any longer and lets things go unchecked, people might really think that he is involved with this fox demon.
"Either die, or get out!"
Before the words were even finished, the confusion in the eyes of those creatures was quickly swallowed up by the frenzied red light, and they once again fearlessly charged towards Taibai.
In Taibai's eyes, such an attack was nothing more than a rabble.
The next moment, the Gengjin longsword was already in his hand. The sword light swept across, and the figures at the forefront were decapitated.
Immediately afterwards, Taibai's wrist holding the sword trembled slightly, and an invisible energy surged around his body.
boom!
The shockwave rippled outwards, knocking all the remaining creatures unconscious.
"Hahaha... Fellow Daoist, you've quite the skill; you even have a merit-based spiritual treasure hidden away. It seems you've accumulated quite a bit of good karma over the years!"
A sharp, eerie laugh echoed from the depths of the tribe, followed by the pink mist spreading out once more.
"A mere trick. A fox demon dares to call itself a great immortal; it truly doesn't know its own limitations."
Taibai originally thought that passing down the incense and refining the divine way could help stabilize the prehistoric world, but he never expected it to become such a demonic and harmful scheme.
Thinking of this, his anger flared even more, and he wished he could immediately drag out that eight-tailed fox demon and tear it to pieces.
He swiftly changed his hand gestures, and Samadhi Fire arose in response to his command, burning fiercely around his body.
The pink mist that enveloped them sizzled and dissipated upon contact with the real fire.
"You fiend, is this all you've got? You've truly disappointed me!"
Taibai pointed towards the location of the stone statue in his memory and asked sternly, but the statue only emitted bursts of strange laughter, full of mockery.
At the same time, a series of harsh scraping sounds came from deep within the pink mist.
The fog churned violently, and one after another, twisted phantom foxes emerged and pounced on Taibai.
These phantoms do not attack the physical body, but rather penetrate the protective light and directly devour the soul.
At this moment, Taibai was filled with rage. His eyes flashed with a cold light, and he no longer held back.
"Such demonic tricks, yet they dare to make such a racket!"
He changed his hand seals, and the Samadhi True Fire that had been calmly surrounding his body suddenly erupted.
The golden-red flames were no longer gentle; they transformed into several enraged fire dragons, raging outwards in all directions from Taibai as the center.
The intense heat caused the air to crackle and distort.
Even more alarming was that the pink mist that filled the sky and earth melted and evaporated in large swaths under the full scorching heat of the real fire.
The sea of fire raged for a moment, then slowly rolled back and re-condensed around Taibai's body, its flames becoming more subdued, but its temperature even more terrifying.
The next moment, the eight-tailed fox statue trembled violently, and the previously vanished pink mist reappeared, quickly condensing into the figure of a graceful and alluring woman.
"Why be so aggressive, fellow Daoist?"
The woman, who was actually a fox spirit, had a soft, sweet voice, and her eyes were alluring with every glance and gesture.
"It's not easy for a young woman to accumulate merit; why must you make things difficult for me, fellow Daoist?"
She swayed her hips slightly, occasionally casting affectionate glances at Taibai.
Even with his steadfast Daoist heart, Taibai was momentarily stunned by such alluring behavior, losing his composure for a moment.
Taibai was startled awake when the Gengjin longsword in his hand suddenly hummed and vibrated, its clear sword intent piercing straight into his mind. A layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
Just now, I was only a hair's breadth away from falling into the fox demon's trap.
"Hiss..." The fox demon frowned slightly, his gaze falling on the longsword. "Your spiritual treasure is actually an innate possession? This is really troublesome."
"You don't recognize me?" Taibai said coldly.
"Should I recognize you, young lady?" the fox demon asked with a light laugh, but a hint of wariness flashed in her eyes.
Although this eight-tailed fox demon had gone to Wuyi Mountain to purify the impure thoughts of incense offerings, it had never seen the true face of Taibai.
Even when she listened to the teachings on the Tao of Incense Refining the Gods last time, she only heard the teachings from afar and never saw the face of the deity.
Taibai understood immediately. If this fox demon had known his identity earlier, it would have fled thousands of miles away long ago.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that this fox demon's cultivation had reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.
Taibai knew he had to finish the battle quickly, either severely injuring or killing the enemy, otherwise, once he was entangled by their charm, the outcome would be uncertain.
"Since you don't recognize me, that's even better."
Taibai's eyes flashed with a cold light. "Samadhi True Fire, command!"
Before he finished speaking, crimson flames surged from his body, transforming into waves of fire that rushed straight towards the fox demon.
But the fox demon neither dodged nor avoided, but simply parted her red lips and gently blew a breath forward.
The raging waves of real fire swept past her without harming her in the slightest.
"The Samadhi True Fire is indeed a legitimate method of the Xuanmen sect. Fellow Daoist's background is truly extraordinary."
The eight-tailed fox demon chuckled, but a sly glint flashed in her eyes.
"It's a pity that today, fellow Daoist, you will probably become another source of resources for this humble woman's cultivation path."
Before she finished speaking, she slightly opened her mouth, and another burst of pink mist gushed out.
This time, the gas not only carried a stronger allure, but also subtly exuded a strange medicinal power that made people feel numb and confused.
This fox demon actually planned to completely bewitch Taibai, then use evil magic to seize his foundation and steal the orthodox cultivation methods of the Xuanmen sect.
Upon seeing this, Taibai's last bit of interest in investigating the fox demon vanished.
From beginning to end, this scoundrel relied on nothing more than the arts of seduction and deception.
Her ability to cultivate to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm was probably entirely due to the power of incense and the refinement of divine paths to seize the will of living beings, built up by the tireless worship of countless believers day and night.
Over these tens of thousands of years, countless lives have been consumed by endless offerings, becoming her stepping stones.
"I am a disciple of the Three Pure Ones. Fellow Daoist, you have truly disappointed me. With such paltry tricks, you dare to harbor such malicious thoughts?"
Having said that, he had a thought, and the Pure White Lotus appeared from his mind. As the lotus petals unfolded, a clear light flowed, transforming into a soft white light curtain that enveloped his entire body.
The pink poisonous mist that had been attacking was instantly purified upon touching the light barrier.
Only then did the eight-tailed fox demon truly see the appearance of the white lotus. In an instant, her expression changed drastically. She cried out in surprise, turned around, and transformed into a pink streak of light, fleeing into the distance.
"Damn it, this person is not to be trifled with. I never expected him to have such an identity, and he concealed his presence from the very beginning. Damn it!"
However, having committed such a sin, how could Taibai allow her to escape?
The profound mysteries of the escape techniques of the orthodox Xuanmen sect are far beyond what ordinary rogue cultivators can achieve.
Even though the fox demon had already fled a hundred miles away, Taibai swayed and blocked her way again.
"Immortal, spare me! This lowly woman was blind and did not recognize your greatness. I beg you, Immortal, to show mercy!"
Seeing that there was no way out, the eight-tailed fox demon immediately knelt down in mid-air, kowtowing and begging repeatedly, her previous charming and alluring demeanor completely transformed into one of utter panic.
