The back mountain of Luoyun Valley.
The competition area.
A clear and winding river came into view, with dense grass and low shrubs on the riverside, and stone peaks standing in the surroundings, with wonderful scenery.
Three outer disciples in their twenties were patrolling back and forth, as if searching for something.
“Senior Sister Nie, found it.”
Suddenly, a young male cultivator found a hidden cave in the cracks of the rocks and shouted excitedly.
“The nest of the ice rat is here.”
Hearing the voice, the only female cultivator among the three immediately showed a look of joy and flew towards the cave. The other male cultivator scratched his head in annoyance and followed unwillingly.
Soon, the three of them surrounded the cave entrance with magic tools in hand.
“It is indeed the nest of the rat demon. Rat demons like to live in groups by nature. Maybe there is more than one in it.”
The female cultivator who spoke looked quite pretty, but her slightly sharp chin and sharp eyebrows made her look a little mean. She was Nie Cuilan, an outer disciple of the Law Enforcement Pavilion.
At this time, the male cultivator who came with him suggested:
“The cave entrance is narrow, so let’s not go in. Ice rats are most afraid of fire. Why not light a fire outside and use the smoke to force them out.”
“Okay.”
Nie Cuilan nodded, took out a fire from her storage bag, and ignited the moss branches growing at the entrance of the cave. A thick smoke immediately spread out and rushed into the cave along the wind outlet.
Soon after, a chaotic noise came from the cave, and several ice-blue figures rushed out of the cave entrance. They were four ice rats in the Qi Refining Realm.
Seeing this, Nie Cuilan snorted coldly, and the long whip in her hand turned into more than ten vines, which stretched out like sharp arrows towards the group of ice rats, and bound them tightly in place in an instant.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak–”
The tightly imprisoned ice rats struggled desperately, their eyes were full of fear, and they made sharp cries, as if asking for help from the surroundings.
“Die!”
Faced with the points within easy reach, Nie Cuilan would naturally not be merciful. She was about to get rid of the four ice rats in front of her, but suddenly felt a gust of wind behind her, and subconsciously pulled away to avoid it.
Bang!
The two magic weapons just brushed past her ears and hit the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Looking back, she found that it was her two companions who attacked her.
Nie Cuilan’s face changed drastically, and she shouted angrily:
“Miao Kang, Yan Quan, are you two crazy?”
She never expected that these two pursuers who usually obeyed her would dare to join forces to attack her!
But the two looked at her with strange expressions and murderous intent, shouting:
“You bold monster, you dare to hurt Senior Sister Nie, die!”
After that, they waved their magic weapons and attacked her again.
At the same time, in Nie Cuilan’s eyes, the two male cultivators in front of her had disappeared and turned into two thunderstorm bears with bared fangs and claws. She was immediately startled and quickly took out a small green ruler from her storage bag and went forward to fight…
Bang bang bang!!!
For a while, the three of them were entangled in a fight, and it was difficult to separate.
When the scene was in chaos, a man slowly stepped out from the flowers not far away.
The fox was about five feet tall, with smooth and clean fur, like silk. As it walked, its fluffy tail curled up slightly and swayed lazily.
It first glanced at Nie Cuilan and others who were fighting, and a playful smile flashed in its two pairs of amber pupils. Then it walked gracefully to the group of ice rats bound by vines.
Swish!
The fox demon raised its claws and easily penetrated the tough vines, rescuing the trapped ice rats.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak——”
After being rescued, the ice rats shouted a few words at the fox demon, and then quickly disappeared into the bushes.
The fox demon who stayed in the original place turned his head and looked at the three people who were trapped in the illusion, his eyes were full of coldness.
Then, it opened its mouth and sprayed out a white mist, which quickly enveloped the three people.
This white mist seemed to be the fox demon’s life magic. After it was cast, the breath on its body also weakened a lot.
Under the influence of this strange white mist, Nie Cuilan and others became more and more confused. In the end, they took out sharp weapons from their storage bags and pretended to stab themselves.
Suddenly.
A hunting net fell from the sky and caught the fox demon’s head.
“Chirp, chirp–”
The fox demon struggled frantically, but this magical-level animal-catching net was extremely tenacious. Not only did it not break free, but it became tighter and tighter.
At the same time, under the suppression of the animal-catching net, its innate magic was also declared ineffective.
The white mist dissipated, and Nie Cuilan and others immediately collapsed to the ground and fell into a coma.
The next moment, a strange figure jumped down from the tree, stepped forward and tied up the fox demon tightly, and said with a smile on his face:
“The four-eyed fox with perfect Qi training finally caught you.”
This figure was Qi Yuan.
After arranging the work tasks for the employees, he came to this jungle alone, with the goal of finding this rare four-eyed fox.
The four-eyed fox was born with a trace of the blood of the nine-tailed fox, and was smart and cunning, proficient in illusion. The only weakness was that it was timid and had low combat power.
Seemingly sensing that something was wrong, the four-eyed fox stopped struggling, put its claws together, and a humanized look of pleading appeared in its amber eyes, as if begging Qi Yuan to spare its life.
Seeing this, Qi Yuan smiled coldly:
“You evil beast are so cruel. If I hadn’t arrived in time, my three fellow disciples would have been manipulated by you to commit suicide.”
Then, his face sank, and he put on a ferocious look and continued:
“They are all my fellow disciples, and you dared to attack them, little fox, you are ready to die!”
“Only by skinning you and making you a fox fur scarf can I relieve the hatred in my heart…”
Hearing this, the four-eyed fox trembled immediately, and the despair in the fox’s eyes became even more intense. It whimpered, as if it was begging for mercy.
Just then, Qi Yuan suddenly changed his tone and his expression also slowed down:
“As the saying goes, God is merciful. If you still don’t want to die, I can show you a way out.”
While speaking, he took out a yellow-brown animal skin scroll from his arms with a smile:
“As long as you honestly sign this beast taming contract and swear to recognize me as your master, I can not only let you go, but also give you a top-grade spiritual cultivation pillDan, help you break through to the foundation-building stage on the spot. ”
“If you don’t agree, then just be a fox fur scarf.”
Hearing this, the fox demon was stunned…
