The sounds of air being torn rose, and a gray figure attracted many people’s attention. It stopped at the entrance of Fox Cave. As cries of surprise rose and fell, countless gazes that were filled with surprise and delight landed on the NPC that they were quite familiar with.

Hmm? Why is she here?


Isn’t she the NPC that stands in Immortal Fox Village and sells ingredients for medicine?


Could it be a hidden quest?

What astonished the players was that Hu Mu, who was an inconspicuous NPC, would actually appear at the entrance of Fox Cave. They were delighted because it might be a hidden quest. If they could trigger it…


Many of the players gathered together, and the booming sound of horse hooves rang out in the air. Countless players rushed into the forest while riding on their horses and stopped in front of Hu Mu, who had an anxious look on her face. With incredibly affectionate voices, they asked,
Excuse me, is there anything we can help with?

Hu Mu ignored them and did not say a word. She only stood at the entrance and stared at the head of the beast and its single burning eye with a scowl on her face. The image she usually had while she was stationed in Immortal Fox Village was gone, and there was a strange light as well as anger shining in her eyes.

Do you have a family member who has run into trouble in Fox Cave? I’ll help you find them!

More players surrounded Hu Mu. There were multiple circles of them around her, and their numbers just kept increasing. They kept asking all sorts of questions in hopes that they could trigger Hu Mu’s hidden quest, but Hu Mu did not seem to want to bother with them.
Yet even so, the players’ enthusiasm did not decrease. They continued to chat up a storm…
Time passed bit by bit.

More than ten players had died around Yao Hua in his chamber in the third level of Fox Cave. Among the corpses were people from Class One Hall and Towering Palace. Only Dream Clouds, Wind Void, Musical Note, Lin Xiao, Red Dust, Barren Murderer, Blood Robes, Shangguan Lian, and Hai Dongqing were left beside Yao Hua.
His attacks were domineering.
Even top tier players had a hard time withstanding even one of them. Usually, after he swung his sword, that person would be sent flying. There was no chance for them to successfully block his attacks, but even more tragic was the fact that before they could even see Yao Hua’s attacks clearly, they were already dead.


The nine great players had only managed to go up against him slightly by taking turns and covering each other’s weaknesses. Later on, they decided to take turns attacking in groups of three. One of the groups would be in charge of luring Yao Hua’s attacks, while the other two searched for a chance to damage him.
Half an hour later, bloody red marks could be found on Yao Hua’s fox coat. The blood by his feet had also become a pool. His face had grown even paler. Every time he attacked, he would gasp for breath. Sometimes, he would even cough up blood. The signs of his weakness became very prominent!

We’ll get him soon! Let’s work a little harder!

Red Dust swallowed a Dew Pill before he joined his sword and sheath together. His aura instantly went up by leaps and bounds, and his range also increased by a large margin. He delivered several staff attacks within a short time, and they left behind a few wounds on Yao Hua’s body at lightning speed.
Yao Hua staggered nonstop. He could no longer hold the divine weapon in his hands tightly…
The other eight people’s eyes lit up.
Yao Hua’s attack had been interrupted! It was a good chance!
They attacked at the same time to deliver all sorts of attacks at lightning speed. Yao Hua, who was already heavily injured and weakened, was sent crashing against the wall behind him. He slid to the ground and coughed up a large mouthful of blood, but he did not scream. Instead, he had a smile on his face that said he had been freed, and it looked very unusual.
The candle flame in the chamber shuddered violently, as if it was hinting that Yao Hua was about to die. When he did, the flame would go off.
Everyone’s attention was on Yao Hua, so they did not notice that a very clear change had happened in the chamber.


The smooth floorboards were beginning to lose their color. The walls around them were also beginning to resemble glue. While the three sects were distracted, the chamber’s smooth appearance slid to the ground.
Soon, the chamber began to shake violently!
Everyone then noticed the changes in the area. As loud rumbling sounds rose, the expressions of the three great sects changed swiftly.

What’s going on?


Earthquake!


Damn it! No way!


It’s not an earthquake, it’s the effects of an illusion!
While Musical Note shook off Hai Dongqing, who used the opportunity to stretch his arm over and grab her hand to support her, she reminded everyone calmly,
Perhaps the area around Fox Cave is also under the effects of the illusion, we’re going to—Oh no! Yao Hua’s wife! We forgot about her existence!

When she said the last part of her sentence, the crowd’s expression changed drastically.
The rumors mentioned that Yao Hua had been injured badly, while the descriptions of his wife was that she suffered from qi deviation. Since she was not present, did that mean that her strength had actually not been reduced?

Forget it! Kill Yao Hua first!



Dream Clouds’ gaze became determined. She stared at Yao Hua, who was at his last breath and smiled as if he had been freed from his burden. Without another word, she drew a dazzling sword glare in the air with her longsword. The chamber was suddenly filled with rolling heat waves, and a red fire wave went charging at Yao Hua like a waterfall.
The elites of the other two great sects were also worried that more accidents could occur. They executed their strongest killing moves and sent them all charging at Yao Hua. They wanted to make Yao Hua drop the divine vessels before they settled everything else.
However, right when everyone’s attacks landed on Yao Hua, the dimension crumbled. Their surroundings began changing swiftly. The walls around them vanished, and the ceiling also disappeared! The space in the chamber became wider, and the night wind came blowing at them. They all found themselves in the forest under the empty night sky…
The entrance! It was Fox Cave’s entrance!
The players used the sparse light provided by the moon to identify that the forest around them was rather familiar, but they were all curious as to why they had appeared at the entrance of Fox Cave. Then, they smelled a thick, bloody scent that even the wind could not blow away. They also felt a sticky substance under their feet, as if the ground had been dyed so much by a liquid that it had become wet.
When they lowered their heads to look, cries of surprise rose and fell in the forest! Among them, the female players’ hysterical screams were mixed in.
Their voices attracted the attention of a ferocious beast that had an astonishing figure outside the forest. Its brutal and merciless eyes shone with a hint of red, and its nine fiery red tails rose into the air!
Whoosh!

Moonlight shone into the forest, and it coincidentally landed on Yao Hua’s pale and fragile corpse on the ground. He lay among numerous player corpses, but he alone looked incredibly calm and at peace.


Yao Hua held the divine weapon that seemed noble, domineering, and exuded a great chill in his limp hand. The weapon looked incredibly eye-catching, but none of the three great sects dared to go up and take it.
Regardless of whether it was the charming and alluring Dream Clouds, the heroic Wind Void, or Musical Note, who had great wisdom and a gentle personality, they stayed far away from Yao Hua’s corpse. They stared at the edge of the dark forest and did not even dare to breathe loudly. They did not seem to even notice the divine weapon in Yao Hua’s hands.
No one dared to even think about it!
There were more than one thousand player corpses on the ground. The entire forest had turned into a hell on earth that would cause people’s expressions to change when they heard of it. The bizarity of the event had already surpassed what the three great sects could accept. Their masters and vice masters were very clear that they had been dragged into an incredibly dangerous situation.
At that moment, another group of people appeared out of the blue from another direction. Cries of surprise rose and fell as they headed over.

Wow!


What happened?


Haha! We’re rich! No one touched these people’s corpses!


Look over there! That saber…

Yao Hua’s weapon shone with a bewitching stream of blue light. It looked incredibly dazzling, and it quickly attracted the attention of the players. The next moment, the sounds of robes fluttering became much more rapid.
The expressions of the people from the three great sects changed at the same time!
The moment the newcomers got close to Yao Hua’s corpse, two balls of light that were as red as the light of lamps lit up at the edge of the forest! They were the lights of a pair of brutal and cruel eyes. They seemed to belong to the King of Hell who had suddenly revealed itself under the night sky!
