Monsters Will Die if They Are Killed

There was no snowfall or strong wind on Qingqiu, only a deathly cold silence.

The cave where the ice fox lives is complicated and winding, but the surface of the corridor is smooth and smooth. It is nearly two meters wide and high, enough to accommodate several people entering and exiting side by side at the same time.

As Liu Wuxin said, there is no way a fox can make such a thing. It's not that they can't do it, but it's not necessary. According to their petite bodies, if the hole is as big as a human head, it has already reached the upper limit of demand.

Following the active little fox, Su Zhou entered along the corridor.

Then he noticed that in this corridor, there were actually stairs one after another... and the size of the stairs was exactly in line with the human body.

A fox wouldn't make such a thing.

"really……"

On this cold alien planet where there is no wind, there are still traces of human actions. Su Zhou has already heard the exclamations of Liu Wuxin and Tang Yuan behind him. They are wondering why there are stairs suitable for humans to walk in the corridor where the fox lives, but The young man who had already made a guess in his mind remained unmoved.

"It's unbelievable. Do you think there are still humans here?!"

Liu Wuxin felt the hardness of the steps with his feet, and then had to admit that in the ice cold of more than 100 degrees below zero, the tunnel built on the ice cap was incredibly strong, and even he needed some strength to crush it. This is something that the few little foxes before could not possibly do. Humans must be there, and they must be trained humans to process this kind of ice.

"strangeness……"

Tang Yuan looked around with some confusion, and murmured: "There are traces of human souls dissipating here recently..."

With doubts, the two people following Su Zhou saw the back of the young man who had stopped moving forward at the L corner of the cave corridor.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Wuxin asked. He looked past Su Zhou and looked forward: "It happened..."

Then, he opened his mouth and stopped making any sound.

Because what appeared in front of the three people was a large area of ​​exquisite reliefs and murals.

The entire corridor is filled with interlocking cloud patterns, freehand and heroic carvings, as well as various classical murals that can be called works of art.

Although ordinary people cannot see clearly the contents of these murals and reliefs due to the dim light here, who among the people present cannot see without light? Su Zhou's eyes swept across the entire corridor. These ancient man-made objects with a history of at least more than a thousand years still radiate their own charm. Whether it is the magical and magnificent scenery of the heavenly palace above or the fairy fox running among the clouds and mountains, they are irresistible. Open your eyes.

In addition, there are a large number of characters on it, but they are too twisted and abstract. It seems to be born out of some ancient hieroglyphics, and is the ancestor of today's Zhengguo characters.

"At least this is something that only creatures with thumbs can do..."

In the corridor, Liu Wuxin's eyes lit up and he looked around. He looked around everything and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "There are indeed humans here..."

The little fox leading the way was still waiting at the end of the corridor. Su Zhou let out a breath. He did not continue to look at the murals, but walked forward. Liu Wuxin and Tang Yuan were filming all this with their portable agency terminals while following Su Zhou. After daylight.

Finally, Su Zhou came to the end of the corridor.

And here, he saw a human corpse that had completely turned into a mummy and turned into stone.

The corpse is leaning against the end of the murals and reliefs, blending into the entire wall. He is wearing some kind of ancient costume, and all the colors have receded over time. If you don't observe carefully, someone may take it. Ignore it as part of the mural or as an unusual protrusion on the wall.

But Su Zhou didn't. He saw the skeleton and the carving knife held by the skeleton, which had been decayed and broken for many years.

"...died for at least a thousand years..."

Because of his talent for spiritual transformation, Tang Yuan has taken courses in the underworld. He can easily determine the year of death of a corpse, even to the minute.

But facing this ancient corpse located on an alien planet, he hesitated: "The strength before death may have been around the extraordinary level... It was a person whose spiritual energy was gradually cut off in the era. He died after carving the last relief."

"Why……"

No one answered this question.

At the same time, at the end of the corridor, there were waves of spiritual power fluctuations, which immediately made the three of them lift their eyes from the corpse and look towards the other side.

…

The elder is leading the foxes to perform a sacrificial dance in front of the holy lake.

Although it is said to be a dance, it is actually a special step that can mobilize the power in all ice foxes to resist the cold and control the ice. Under the guidance of an elder, this power can be gathered into one, Perform sacrifices.

The foxes dance very smoothly. Even the little foxes who participated in the sacrifice for the first time at a young age learned it quickly under the guidance of their elders. It is as if there is such an inherited memory in their blood. They sway their tails and step on the right steps. They formed a regular circle and then sang and danced facing the corpses of several ice foxes in the circle.

Death, death, death means new life. Only when the old fox dies can a new fox be allowed to be born.

The amount of seaweed and swimming fish in the holy lake is limited. They can only provide food for eighty foxes at most. This is because everyone eats as little as possible. When an old fox dies, there will be more new little foxes. Pay your own rations.

What's more, this is also a contract...a contract with the Holy Lake.

Because, an evil ghost is suppressed in the holy lake.

Only by holding this ceremony from time to time and offering sacrifices to the holy lake can the ice fox live peacefully in the cave.

There was once a generation of foxes who were not prepared to continue performing sacrifices, something that they considered meaningless, and the result was that the inexplicable evil ghost's voice killed most of the foxes. It was the elders of that generation who risked their lives to do so. The evil spirits were suppressed back to the Holy Lake, which also caused the ice foxes to lose a lot of their mouths and wisdom.

The ceremony was almost over. As a large number of ice blue light spots flew out from each fox, they condensed on the ice fox corpses in the center of the circle, forming an almost cocoon-like light group. The elder's eyes lit up. There was a faint blue light.

Then, an invisible force lifted these corpses and sent them into the holy lake that exuded light golden light.

For a moment, one could see that an icy blue luster began to spread in the lake water, and a large number of strange-shaped white fish came forward to bite and devour these fox carcasses, and the fragments of flesh and blood sank into the seaweed and became their nutrients.

But what is strange is that whether they are fish or seaweed, their movements and arrangements are very regular... The light cocoon on the fox corpse shattered, and then connected with all the seaweed and fish in the holy lake, vaguely turning into A formation that was not very clear, but unexpectedly huge.

It does seem to be suppressing something, and foxes, seaweed and fish are all part of this seal. The cycle of life and death between them forms a conceptual circle. This ingenious design would make the Nordic seals use When Raphael saw it, he would definitely shout "amazing".

But the foxes don't know this kind of thing.

They don't know that their daily sacrifices are actually part of a huge seal.

They don't know what their mission is or why they want to maintain this seal.

They just feel very tired, very tired - this is the case for every sacrifice. The more powerful the fox is on weekdays, the more tired it will be after the sacrifice.

And the old fox, the elder, especially.

——That day is coming.

It comes to mind.

Moving stars have appeared in the sky, confirming the predictions of the ancestors, so the wonderful things that will follow should also come true one by one.

A warm place to live, a place to run happily, plenty of fish to eat...and many more prophecies will come true.

The elder was a little tired. This sacrifice consumed too much of what the ancestors' souls called 'spiritual power'. It was no longer a simple power, but the pillar that supported the life of this old fox body - and every time Sacrifice means that all foxes need to contribute almost all their spiritual power, so the more powerful their spiritual power is, the heavier the damage they will suffer.

His eyes were almost unable to open... The old fox wanted to sleep for a long time like this. Too many elders fell asleep like this, and it seemed that he was no exception. But anyway, he had already handed over the skills of the elders to the fourth one. Grandson, it doesn’t seem unacceptable to fall asleep like this...

But just when the old fox couldn't lift his tired eyelids, the heavy footsteps of the ice fox came.

The elder raised his head warily and looked at the entrance of the cavity. All the foxes also looked there.

Then, they saw three foxes, leading three tall and upright creatures with sparse fur, strange and weird creatures, into the cave.

Originally, they should be on guard. This is the instinct of the body. They should be afraid of such creatures and then attack.

I just don’t know why, but there is only a strange tranquility in the elder’s heart.

strangeness.

That appearance...is it really unfamiliar?

Why... does it feel so familiar?

…

When Su Zhou and the others entered the huge semicircular underground cavity, the first thing they saw was dozens of ice foxes that were turning their heads to stare at them.

More than a hundred sapphire-like eyes stared at them with curiosity, wariness, confusion and confusion.

Then, immediately after, there were bursts of tail slapping sounds that sounded like cheers.

Click click, all the foxes rushed towards Su Zhou and others. Liu Wuxin even subconsciously prepared for a fight, but soon he realized that he was overreacting.

Because not only did these foxes have no ill intentions, but they were all aimed at Su Zhou.

For a moment, Su Zhou, who did not react, was surrounded by large groups of furry animals. One after another, the ice foxes were rubbing against Su Zhou's trouser legs, biting his shoelaces, or even flying towards him. Biting the button and dangling it.

"Okay, be good, don't rush over..."

Su Zhou originally wanted to stretch out his hand to appease a few obviously excited foxes, but he didn't expect that as soon as he stretched out his hand, at least seven or eight heads would move toward his palm and rub against each other passionately, making the situation even more chaotic.

"...Am I too popular?"

For a moment, he couldn't figure out what was going on. He could only deal with the many enthusiastic furries in a dumbfounded way: "I knew I was handsome, but I didn't expect that it would be the same in the eyes of foxes."

Of course, not all foxes were close to Su Zhou. Amidst the noise, a few obviously older foxes came to Tang Yuan's side. They sat quietly next to the young man's feet, seeming to enjoy each other's body. some feeling.

Only with Liu Wuxin as the center can you see a blank circle without foxes - excessive exercise seems to not only be liked by the opposite sex, but also by foxes.

This immediately made the Lingwu practitioner a little angry: "Why, why is the fox like this?!"

"Could it be that this is the sign of life that I detected before..."

Tang Yuan looked around and couldn't help but feel a little confused: "But let's not talk about why they are foxes. What do these foxes rely on to survive?"

At this time, Su Zhou raised his head from being surrounded by foxes. He looked at the other side of the cavity, where the underground lake was emitting light golden light.

"There is strong spiritual radiation there, and there are a lot of special spiritual fish and algae living there."

As he said this, Su Zhou looked serious: "It is the radiation that melts the ice, brings warmth to this underground cave, and raises the fish and algae to provide for the survival of these foxes."

"As for the fluctuations of psychic radiation, aren't you familiar with it? That's the fluctuation of the psychic engine - it's just a very old model."

Liu Wuxin also looked in the direction of the underground lake. He closed his eyes and sensed it with his spiritual power. Then he opened his eyes and nodded slowly: "Indeed, no wonder you guessed that a sky-breaking shuttle was buried here. The energy of that magic weapon The energy fluctuations in the core and at the bottom of the lake are very similar."

"only……"

Then, he lowered his head and looked around at such a group of big furry foxes. He couldn't help but hesitantly said to himself, "Could it be that these foxes are the pets left behind by the owner of the shuttle that crashed here?"

This is a good guess, and it can also explain why these foxes are not afraid of people at all, but are very close to people.

But Su Zhou simply denied this speculation.

"No."

Stroking the ears of a little fox in his hand and watching the little fox sway happily, Su Zhou looked around the entire underground cavity and murmured: "They are just humans."

"What?!"

For a moment, both Liu Wuxin and Tang Yuan turned their heads in surprise and looked at Su Zhou, as if they wanted to know why he said that.

But at this time, Su Zhou did not answer. His eyes were fixed on the other side of the cavity, an old fox who looked very weak.

And the old fox's eyes were also fixed on Su Zhou.

Standing up slowly, Su Zhou gently picked off the overly enthusiastic silver fur from his body, and then walked towards the bald old fox.

"Gu, Guao..."

Facing the upright creatures that were approaching him, the elder barely managed to support his four legs, but soon, his too weak limbs would be unable to support his weight.

The six tails that it was originally proud of have now become a burden on the body. They are so heavy that they cannot be lifted with all their strength.

——Am I going to die?

Just such an idea flashed through his mind. Before he could think about it carefully, the elder saw the upright creature leaning down and gently holding him in his arms.

"You just want to see me?"

Su Zhou, who used his non-thinking mind to clearly distinguish the innermost thoughts of each fox, naturally noticed that the old fox's inner thoughts were far more active than those of other ice foxes. It seemed that because of the authority of this old fox, those who were too excessive before were The ordinary ice foxes who were making out did not move forward, but stayed where they were.

"Gu..."

Su Zhou could see the old fox in his arms opening its eyes, then slowly moving its head, pointing towards the nearest cave beside the light golden lake.

Su Zhou knew exactly what the other party meant - it wanted him to pass.

Then go over there.

"You guys wait here, I'll go check on the situation."

After telling Liu Wuxin and Tang Yuan to hug the old fox, Su Zhou walked towards the cave. The two people who were left behind looked at each other, then shrugged, expressing their helplessness.

But in any case, the discovery of such a strange group of ice foxes on Qingqiu Si, which was originally expected to be lifeless, is also a huge gain for the earth - apart from other things, this kind of adaptation is more than 100 degrees below zero. The fox's body itself is a good research object and can tolerate altitude sickness.

At this time, Su Zhou had already entered the elder's exclusive grotto.

Although it was said to be a grotto, after he went deep into it for a while, he clearly felt that something was wrong.

"Is this metal?"

He noticed that the walls of the corridor were not made of rock, but of a gray-silver metal. In this regard, Su Zhou tried to press a little harder, but only a small hole was left on it, but it was not completely penetrated: "It is still a high-performance alloy, and the degree of completion is very high."

And when Su Zhou actually came to the cave where the elder lived, it became even more obvious.

Because it was not a 'cave' in the traditional sense, but a very obvious, damaged metal cabin.

"really."

The square metal cabin made Su Zhou think for a moment that he was back on Earth, but it was obvious that this was just an illusion. Su Zhou let out a long sigh, all this was exactly the same as what he had detected with his spiritual power before on the surface: "Not just this grotto... the entire underground cavity, and even the entire underground lake, are located in a huge sky-breaking shuttle. That’s right above the wreckage of the spaceship from the Immortal God Era.”

"It's just that thousands of years ago, in order to cover up the fact that the spacecraft crashed here, the still-surviving humans covered the spaceship with ice and rocks and buried it deep underground."

"Why cover it up?"

He asked himself so doubtfully.

But another voice answered.

"——Because we have to avoid the pursuers that Xie Ni may send from the Qingqiu Kingdom."

As the sound rang out, green-blue light spots appeared on the numerous totem poles composed of ice fox skulls.

Immediately afterwards, many light spots gathered like fireflies, forming a small ice fox that looked like a shadow made of blue flames.

It has nine tails, a vertical black mark on its forehead, and its body is like an unstable projection, flashing from time to time.

"Lord Dragon King...Lord Dragon King..."

This phantom-like figure slowly approached Su Zhou. Its tone was either respectful or joyful that its wish had finally come true. Its inner voice was so complicated that even Su Zhou could not hear it clearly: "You guys ...It’s finally here...Is the Central Divine Court okay? Since the spiritual energy weakened, the immortal gods from the immortal world have not been here for a long time..."

"You need to be careful, Your Majesty the Dragon King. There is a huge flaw in the seal of Qingqiu Kingdom. The king was assassinated by a spy. We, we don't know..."

"Is the relocation plan in Fairyland still being implemented? Can we catch up with the last batch of relocations?!"

"Qingqiu Country is in danger now... Please report this news to Shenting..."

"There is an error in the seal and must be corrected..."

With its limbs bent and lying in front of Su Zhou, what Ice Fox Phantom said was indeed Chinese, but both the pronunciation and the accent were very different from today's Mandarin.

But Su Zhou didn't care about this. He could understand the other party's words and listened attentively.

The voice of the Ice Fox Phantom seemed to want to pour out all the emotions accumulated over a long period of time. It overlapped one after another, as if it was made by many voices at the same time, and even contained many inconsistent and fragmented sentences.

Even in the end, the totem pole composed of many fox bones began to vibrate, so that the existence of the blue fire fox itself began to become fragmented, and a large number of souls that were originally fused together to maintain stability began to fall apart and annihilate themselves.

Until a hand stretched out, using strong but extremely stable power, gently smoothed the ice fox phantom's thoughts that were fragmented due to the mixture of many souls.

"It's okay, I'm here, there's no need to be afraid."

The young man said this in a gentle tone: "If you have any troubles or worries, just tell me."

"Come on bit by bit, start from the beginning - don't worry, I will listen carefully."

Touched by Su Zhou, the ice fox phantom gradually stabilized, and the many totem poles gradually returned to normal.

After everything returned to peace, Phantom stared at Su Zhou.

After regaining its senses, it stared at the young man for a long time, and then let out a long sigh.

"You...are not the immortal gods of the Central Divine Courtyard?" Although the tone was doubtful, the meaning was affirmative.

"Yes." Sitting on the ground, Su Zhou put the old fox who had slowly fallen asleep on his lap. He replied calmly: "A thousand years have passed since the last immortal god left our world. They They will never come back again, and we are their remnants left in the fairy world, a brand new civilization developed by them."

"Yeah, sure enough. I just said that the Dragon King of the Divine Court cannot be so amiable."

With this murmur, the ice fox phantom looked at the old fox sleeping peacefully on Su Zhou's lap.

It slept soundly and felt very at ease.

Seeing this scene, Phantom seemed to have made up his mind. Then he raised his head, looked at Su Zhou and said, "Then, I said it."

"Um."

Su Zhou responded calmly: "I'm listening."

"——We Qingqiu people are actually just the emperor's jailers."

Then, just like this, with the narration of the ice fox phantom, a story that has lasted for thousands of years was narrated.

More than 200,000 years ago, the Central Divine Court in the pioneering period discovered this space-time realm and established the country of Qingqiu. Since then, this country affiliated to the Central Divine Court has prospered and developed on that verdant planet. The human race, Qingqiu Fox, red deer and other races live here.

The nine-tailed fox is the totem god of the Qingqiu Kingdom. The so-called nine-tailed fox 'holds a book when it comes out', which means that the Qingqiu fox with nine tails is a symbol of auspiciousness and morality. It represents the leader of the country and is responsible for cultural heritage. Responsibility was quite popular with the original emperor at that time.

Therefore, the nine-tailed fox, who won the favor of the emperor and even got the position of guarding the other party's tomb in the future, began to build a huge seal in Qingqiu Kingdom under the other party's guidance to suppress an ancient fierce god.

The seal lasted for a long, long time, and was very stable for hundreds of thousands of years. After all, all the emperors in the past had the status of a heavenly being, and the one who sealed the fierce god was the first emperor. The seal he established was so stable that no one worried about the safety of the seal.

However, thousands of years ago, the seal began to move from time to time. In addition, since then, the ups and downs of spiritual energy began to become extreme, which made the seal even more unstable.

As jailers, the Qingqiu people also began to have other thoughts.

"... Thousands of years ago, the king was assassinated, and the seal located in Jiyi Ze was also raided by Xie Ni. In order to prevent the evil god from awakening and causing harm to the people of the world, we had no choice but to take advantage of the chaos and take away the true evil god's seal. A container for part of the soul, take the Yuxu Shuttle and go to the Central Divine Courtyard to apply for support..."

"During the escape, the shuttle was partially destroyed by Xie Ni, and we also underestimated the extent of the decline in spiritual energy. It is impossible for the damaged shuttle to fly to the overpass leading to the divine court. We can only be forced to make an emergency landing here. In the wilderness of the reopened world..."

Narrating so lightly, the ice fox phantom shook its tail, its tone without any emotion: "Then, it was a struggle to survive."

"At the beginning, we were still delusional, waiting for the spiritual energy to recover to a certain level, then repair the shuttle, and then go to the overpass (time and space gate). After all, if the evil god is unsealed, even the divine court, all the gods, and the contemporary emperor will also It must be a headache...but who knows, the spiritual energy will never come back, or even be completely cut off, and it will not gradually recover until thousands of years later."

"Even if the human body has cultivation, it is difficult to survive in this extremely cold wilderness, let alone the human body after the spiritual energy is cut off. If you want to survive, you must transform into the body of Qingqiu Fox. It also needs to be transformed into the ice fox branch bloodline."

Having said this, the ice fox phantom looked at the old fox lying on Su Zhou's lap. It lowered its gaze: "Then... because it was really difficult to survive, it could only maintain its ice fox form until now."

Su Zhou listened to all this quietly, and he had already guessed most of the information about the ice fox.

——Yes, how normal.

On this cold planet with an average temperature of more than 110 degrees below zero, how can human beings who have lost their aura survive? Only by converting into the somewhat magical ice fox bloodline can one adapt to the local environment.

"But their wisdom..."

Su Zhou stroked the sleeping old fox and said in a serious tone: "Although it is a little smarter than ordinary foxes, it is far inferior to normal humans."

"Because the spiritual energy is thin. Thin spiritual energy means that it is difficult to practice, and difficult to practice means that it is difficult to switch between the twin bodies of the Imitation Dao."

The phantom ice fox sighed softly: "In order to continue the bloodline and maintain the seal on the fragments of the fierce god's true soul, we can't waste our power on transforming into human forms... Moreover, it would be too much of a waste of time."

In this regard, Su Zhou could only remain silent, because what the other party said was indeed correct.

The human form is afraid of the cold, and is too large and consumes a lot of energy. Its battery life is far inferior to that of the petite ice fox.

However, it is difficult for the fox form to strengthen the soul and cultivate wisdom when the spiritual energy is cut off... Between survival and wisdom, the group of humans who fell on Qingqiu Si chose to survive.

Because only by surviving can you complete your mission.

As a result, they deteriorated from generation to generation, and this group of people seeking help who landed on Qingqiu 4 almost turned into pure foxes.

Su Zhou turned his head and looked at the entrance of the cave. His spiritual eyes flashed. He could see the many ice fox gates outside the cave that were protecting Liu Wuxin and Tang Yuan. Most of them had two or three tails, which represented them. His intelligence is about the same as that of a human child.

To reach a level of wisdom comparable to that of humans, Qingqiu Fox must at least reach the realm of Six-Tails.

Among the entire ice fox group, the only six-tailed fox was the old fox sleeping on Su Zhou's lap.

Generation after generation of deaths, the replacement of foxes from generation to generation, their survival structure has become similar to that of foxes, and coupled with the souls that cannot grow due to the cutoff of spiritual energy, they have almost turned into real beasts... and even, because of worries, they may die from youth. The evil and rebellious soldiers chasing after Qiu Guozhong must also hide their existence and observe the flying stars in the starry sky every day.

"The seal you are talking about..."

Sighing, Su Zhou turned his head and looked at the phantom of the ice fox. He could tell that this phantom was the wise Qingqiu fox of the past, using his own soul as the material to fuse it into a stitched spiritual body wisdom. It is to be responsible for passing on this information, lest the ice fox clan forget their origins and think that they are really foxes.

He asked softly: "What on earth is going on?"

The phantom ice fox's blue eyes flashed like flames, and it slowly replied: "In order to prevent Xie Ni from really releasing the evil god, those Qingqiu people initially took away the core soul fragment in the commotion... This way , even if Xie Ni really unlocks part of the Fierce God’s power, it will take a long time to recover.”

At this point, Phantom turned his attention to the Holy Lake: "The last generation of Qingqiu people with cultivation, before their spiritual energy was cut off, used all their spiritual power to create a seal in the Holy Lake, and taught the ice foxes of later generations how to do it. The ritual makes the cycle of their existence become part of the seal, so that even the fragments of the soul cannot cause chaos."

"Really... I've really worked hard on you all these years."

Su Zhou nodded seriously. This gratitude came from the bottom of his heart. After all, according to what they said, the emperors of the past dynasties, whether they were the Five Emperors of the Five Directions, the first ancestor Emperors Yan and Huang, or the subsequent emperors, could not be weak in strength. And the fierce god sealed by the 'Emperor' should also have the strength of the Heavenly Lord level...

So, he opened his mouth, preparing to ask some follow-up questions.

However, suddenly, the old fox on Su Zhou's lap coughed hard, and then struggled violently.

"what happened?"

Frowning, Su Zhou stretched out his hand and held down the old fox - during the conversation just now, he also knew that this six-tailed ice fox was the ice fox elder of this generation.

"Your Majesty the Dragon King... He is too old, his spiritual energy is exhausted, and he is about to die..."

There was nothing the Phantom Ice Fox could do about this: "Unless there is a skilled alchemist who can refine a pill that can restore spiritual essence, there is nothing anyone can do..."

"There is no reason to die before you are saved."

After muttering, Su Zhou casually bit his finger, and then dropped a drop of blue-purple, gem-like blood into the old fox's mouth. Then, the young man injected a little more spiritual energy into him: "Don't say anything casually in front of me. Damn it, that just makes me want to argue."

In just a moment, under the stunned gaze of the phantom ice fox, a little Zhu Zhou's true blood guided by Su Zhou's spiritual energy ignited the vitality of the elder fox, and the huge spiritual power surged in his body, even causing him to wake up instantly, and then issued a I don’t know if it was a sound of pain or pleasure.

"Ahhhh——"

At first, it was still the voice of a fox, but soon, the surging spiritual energy triggered an unknown switch, and the voice gradually turned into the crisp voice of a young human.

Immediately, under Su Zhou's rather astonished gaze, the old ice fox, which was originally bald and had begun to lose hair on its tail, suddenly transformed into a man who looked to be in his early teens. A handsome boy with white hair and fox ears.

After waking up, the 'elder' was extremely confused. He looked around, but found that he had no way to control his body - and then he shivered and could only instinctively hold his tail to keep warm.

Although it has fox ears and a tail, in the final analysis, the human body cannot endure the cold - even in underground caves, the temperature is only around ten degrees below zero, and it can only be warmed by the holy lake.

"How……"

For the first time, Su Zhou didn't understand why an old fox could be so young after turning into a human form, but he soon figured it out.

The natural lifespan of a fox is only 12 to 14 years old at most. The so-called elders with the highest seniority among foxes, in the final analysis, converted into human years, are just teenagers who have just started puberty, or have not even started yet.

The fox's body has become old because of lack of spiritual practice and frequent use. However, the human body has no spiritual power and has never grown, so it cannot appear before it obtains a large amount of spiritual power... If it continues like this, even if Humans of the imitating Taoist bloodline will gradually degenerate their 'human bodies' and turn into beasts in the true sense...

But now it seems that for more than a thousand years, there is still no way to completely eliminate the human blood in the ice foxes. As long as they have enough spiritual power, they can still return to human form, just like the current elders, even if they have fox bodies He is extremely old, but his human body is still only thirteen or fourteen years old.

"But this makes it even more sad..."

Standing up slowly, Su Zhou stretched out his hand and pressed it on the head of the fox-eared boy, the 'elder'.

He turned his head and looked at the ice foxes in the cave outside, with a trace of entanglement and unbearability in his eyes: "Because in this case, if those ice foxes outside really turned into humans, most of them would be seven or eight years old, or even Just how old are the children..."

Such a young child, in order to fulfill the duties left by his ancestors thousands of years ago, had to turn into a fox, maintain the seal, and live in this narrow, cold and damp underground cavity, just like a real beast, ignorant and ignorant. Living...

But even so, they still adhere to their duties.

Activate the spiritual power, use the spiritual power of the 'elder' to run the secret method, and make it return to the fox's 'true body' - although it is old and has lost its hair, at least it will not freeze to death.

After such a big ups and downs, although the elder's life was saved, the whole fox fainted.

Holding the unconscious old fox in his arms, Su Zhou turned to look at the phantom ice fox.

He asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time.

"Since you said it, the Qingqiu people are actually jailers."

"So, who is the 'fierce god' sealed in Qingqiu?"

Su Zhou can roughly understand why Binghu never mentions the name of the fierce god. After all, for the Qingqiu people who come from the age of immortal gods, it should be a habit not to mention the names of those powerful immortal gods. But now that Qingqiu has known If there is a possible source of disaster on Qiu Star, then he must ask about it.

"who is it?"

In this regard, the ice fox phantom looked at Su Zhou strangely, and said in a strange tone: "Your Majesty the Dragon King, aren't you a descendant of Ying Long? You should know the identity of that fierce god best! "

"There is only one fierce god from ancient times to the present who competed with the First Emperor and was eventually killed by your ancestor."

"That is the Lord of Jiuli, one of the Eight Gods, the 'Master of War'!"

=No money=

Although it is suspected of being a spoiler, I must say that there will be no historical gods or characters in this book, and the warrior master is just a background and will not appear. (I don’t even dare to use His real name. Spare me 8, or have you forgotten those heavenly beings who were harmonized in the first place...)

First update, there will be more tonight
