This fox fairy is too inhuman

A wisp of dim green smoke rose from the ruins that were razed to the ground by Ren Yidao himself.

At first it was very small, like the smoke rising from a country stove.

"In the beginning, I was just a wild beast in the mountains. I lived long enough and luckily learned some magic."

"When the villagers saw me, they first feared me, then respected me. They regarded me as a spiritual beast and no longer pointed their knives at me."

Ren Yidao sat cross-legged in the shrine, half-closed his eyes, recalling the past, as if he had returned to the time a hundred years ago.

"At that time, I was in a special state. I was confused as to whether I was a beast, a demon, or a human."

"The villagers' reverent faith was of no use to me, and I never coveted the incense, but their prayers helped me regain my sanity by chance, and finally recognize myself."

"To repay this kindness, I became what they call a spirit fox, showing them the way and bringing them some prey."

“This is the beginning of the story.”

Soon the wisp of green smoke gradually became thicker, gradually becoming more than one person wide, then three people wide, five people wide, and even ten people wide, and then dozens of people wide.

"As time went by, the first generation of villagers grew older, had children and grandchildren, and some died in their homes."

"I thought that this cause and effect would be severed as they grew older, and I would no longer have any connection with them, but I didn't expect that these guys would actually pass on this inexplicable belief to the next generation, and then the next generation would pass it on to the next generation."

"Really? These ungrateful guys, it's okay if there's only one generation, but why are there more and more of them? Do they want me to work for them for nothing my whole life?"

Ren Yidao's mouth curled up slightly as he thought of the lively scene at that time and his own thoughts at that time.

"...I have thought so before. Looking back, I was somewhat naive at the time."

Little fox, you have such naive ideas.

Want to get away?

It's not that easy.

"These guys are so greedy! They want more than just one or two generations. They clearly want me to be their patron saint for generations to come."

"Just when I was about to run away and unilaterally cut off this relationship, they gave me an unexpected surprise."

"They hid it from me and secretly built a Taoist temple for me."

"Every brick and tile was built by them themselves. It is a simple, even somewhat crude and dilapidated Taoist temple."

"They are clearly not getting enough to eat and will be struggling to make ends meet at the end of the year, yet they are spending time, effort and money to build something useless."

"I admit that I was moved at the time. I was touched... Well, who wouldn't like a house deed given to you by someone else?"

"Another thing is that this is my first home in this world."

Family.

No one knows how attractive this word is to a lonely soul wandering in a strange world with no relatives.

Returning to one's roots is a tradition of the Chinese people.

The past life is hard to find, the past is gone, and you can never return to your hometown.

In this strange and alien world, Ren Yidao has no one to belong to. He is just a rootless duckweed drifting with the water.

After the villagers built the Taoist temple, he had roots that were deeply rooted in the land.

"Finally, I accepted their kindness, entered the Taoist temple, and became its fox fairy."

"And this is the origin of the fox fairy."

Ren Yidao turned his head and looked at Yaoyue who had just arrived at the ruins of Xianhu Temple.

Yaoyue had now returned to her usual appearance of wearing white clothes. Her eyes were gentle beneath her veil and she nodded gently at Ren Yidao.

I'm here, don't worry.

This place was not far from the inn they were in before, and Ren Yidao was practicing next door, so it was impossible for them not to notice the movement here.

Yaoyue came to protect Ren Yidao, while Canglan stayed in the inn and guarded Ren Yidao's real body.

What Ren Yidao just said to himself was both a review of everything he had experienced in his life and something he was telling Yao Yue.

Yao Yue was not entirely clear about Ren Yidao's current condition, but she could see that Ren Yidao was about to break through to the heavenly realm.

But what was different from what Yao Yue knew was that Ren Yidao's breakthrough at this moment did not seem to stop at Wuxiang.

Because Ren Yidao is thoroughly sorting out his own Tao, this alone is no longer within the scope of study in the formless realm. This is something that needs to be figured out when one breaks through to the realm of Tao.

It was obvious that he intended to leap to a higher level in one fell swoop.

If Wuxiang cannot satisfy his ambitions, then what about the Tao?
Or... becoming an immortal?
Yao Yue hesitated for a moment, worried whether Ren Yidao's accumulated foundation was sufficient, but she soon felt relieved.

How deep is Ren Yidao’s background?
As the master, Yao Yue, who has experienced it personally, knows it much better than anyone else.

Yao Yue nodded at Ren Yidao and said softly, "Just go for it. I'll take care of everything."

To others, Ren Yidao at this moment was only as big as a small clay statue in the shrine.

But in Yao Yue's eyes, Ren Yidao's figure had now filled the entire ruins, and the huge figure was sitting cross-legged in the air.

And this is not his limit. The figure is still gradually expanding, and it won’t be long before it exceeds the size of a city!

Seeing this kind of scene, do we still need to worry about him?

No need at all.

What Yaoyue needs to guard against is not the harm that Ren Yidao will suffer due to failure, but some uninvited "guests".

With Yao Yue protecting him, Ren Yidao no longer has to worry about other things and can focus all his energy on breaking through.

So he continued to tell his story.

To yourself, to others, and to all living beings in the world.

"Later, my senior sister took me to the sect and I was gone for several decades. I thought that this farewell without saying goodbye would make them forget about me, but I didn't expect that even if I didn't respond, they didn't stop offering me sacrifices."

"Although there was a minor incident in the middle, and a beast from nowhere stole the incense, their faith is still as strong as before, and has been slowly accumulated over the past hundred years."

"I was worried that the incense would backfire on me, so I chose to transfer my faith to the Taoist gods and separate myself from the believers."

"But I didn't expect that I would appear again in the Western Desert in the end, making the fox fairy the symbol of faith for the Chinese land."

"Looking back, I can be a fox fairy in the Western Desert, but I can't be a god of incense in a small town?"

"Haha, of course I deserve it."

Ren Yidao recalled his action when he swallowed the god's heart in the statue, and shook his head helplessly.

"All I did was to deceive myself."

It doesn’t mean that the choice was wrong at that time.

However, with Ren Yidao's strength at the time, he could only see so much and chose what he thought was the best method at the time.

Ren Yidao was wrong.

What he thought was a renunciation was never actually realized. No matter how the gods abandoned mortals, mortals never gave up their admiration for them.

The cutting thing might have been wrong from the beginning.

But it's not entirely wrong, it's just that there are better options now.

For him at that time, the most important thing was not to be influenced by mortals, which would allow him to break free from the shackles of faith.

He was able to temporarily abandon his identity as a deity and focus all his energy on cultivation, which led to his rapid breakthrough in cultivation.

The incense and the gods have always been like a thick shackle that bound him, and it was precisely because of the accumulation of the previous hundred years that there was a great explosion after the shackles were removed.

But now his breakthrough has reached a bottleneck, and his strength can also bear the power of faith.

It's time to return to our roots. "It's never too late to turn back."

"God of Tao, come out."

As Ren Yidao spoke softly, the white fox Taoist god appeared beside him. He lowered his head deeply, not daring to look directly into the eyes of the god in the shrine.

It was not until he was called out casually at this moment that the Taoist White Fox realized that his existence had actually been exposed long ago.

Yaoyue:? ? ?
Yao Yue frowned deeply as she watched the scene. She had not expected that her apprentice's Taoism would have such a hidden danger.

She wanted to take action to destroy it, but when she saw that Ren Yidao did not react, she remained silent.

"...Hehe." Ren Yidao glanced at him lightly and curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

He had noticed Daoshen's abnormality a long time ago, but he couldn't be sure.

At first, he was not sure he could compete with the other party, and he was not even qualified to have a serious communication with him, so he could only pretend not to know.

Moreover, since the other party is willing to pretend, he will play the game with Him.

The only way to truly determine that there was a problem was to reconcile with Ren Huan, who had reminded him of this implicitly.

Even so, he did not turn hostile at that time, but waited until the time was right to reveal his cards.

However, Ren Yidao did not investigate His true identity now.

Whether it was a self-destructive demon god or something else, it didn’t matter.

At least for such a long time, He had never harmed Himself and had always been diligently and conscientiously disguising Himself.

Perhaps He had some evil intentions at the beginning, planning to occupy this body, waiting to reap the fruits of success one day.

But as Ren Yidao gradually became stronger and the people he came into contact with became more and more powerful, he no longer dared to show his face.

The Lord of a Region is like his brother, the contemporary Demon King is willing to be his sister, the alternative enlightened person is his master, the Demon Buddha is willing to entrust the faith of the Western Desert to him, and even the gods appeared in the end, always paying attention to and cultivating him.

With these people around, he didn't stand a chance.

Just seconds after showing up.

He had completely given up on this idea, and now that he was in a dilemma, he just wanted to find a suitable opportunity to confess.

But now you have to tell him a cruel truth.

It's not that he'll be killed in seconds if he shows his head.

If you don't show it, it will happen in seconds.

Ren Yidao lowered his eyes and looked at Him for a moment, shook his head, and said calmly: "Give me back the Heart of God."

Without any hesitation, the Taoist White Fox opened his mouth and spat out a still beating heart.

He didn't even dare to absorb it!

Not touched at all.

Ren Yidao took the Heart of God and directly merged it into his soul. His soul was agitated for a while, and then quickly calmed down.

He was complete once again.

"call……"

Feeling the completeness of his soul, Ren Yi let out a long breath and said with emotion:

"Fate is truly the most wonderful thing in the world."

"Ren has a connection with them and has become what they call a spiritual animal. He enjoys their offerings and protects them throughout their lives."

"Ren has a connection with the Shinto sect. He was captured by his senior sister and taken to the mountains. He became her disciple and assumed the title of the contemporary world's walker."

"Now, I want to say..."

"Ren has a destiny with this world."

Tonight was cloudy and foggy, with no stars or moon in sight, and the night was dark and lonely.

But at this moment, as Ren Yidao spoke, the clouds and fog dissipated, and a huge full moon appeared in the sky, which was several times larger than usual.

The night sky was pitch black, with no stars visible. Only a huge full moon hung high in the sky, like the eyes of a god looking down on the world.

Under the moonlight, the god in the shrine spoke softly:
"Heaven and earth, all living beings."

"Ren wants to achieve enlightenment here and become a god."

The voice was very small, but it shook the heaven and earth at that moment, and countless cultivators heard this announcement.

"What!?"

"who!"

“Who wants to become enlightened?!”

"Isn't it true that the world today cannot achieve enlightenment?"

There was an uproar between heaven and earth, and countless celestial realm cultivators in Beiming Shenzhou heard the whisper.

They were confused at first, and then shocked.

who! ?

Who is that person who is about to attain enlightenment?!
……

[“Can you achieve enlightenment in one step?”]

In the blue brick dojo, Sikong Yu sighed softly and said with emotion: [“He finally took this path.”]

The Yaochi goddess beside her raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, "Don't you want him to take the incense and fire path?"

【“It’s not that I don’t want to.”】Sikong Yu shook his head, 【“It’s just that for someone like him, the incense and the shrine are too small.”】

[“Shinto, this is the complete avenue.”]

[“However, now is not the time to think about this. It’s time to get moving.”]

Yao Chi understood Sikong Yu's implication and asked in surprise, "Are you planning to expose yourself? Di Fan didn't really die, did he?"

People in the world say that the first leader of the Bu Tian League has died, and now a new leader has taken over, but Yao Chi is skeptical of this news after learning about it.

As a second generation person in heaven, he knows a lot about Emperor Faner.

Would a man who was able to almost succeed in plotting against the Emperor of Heaven and the gods fall so easily?

In everyone's eyes, Di Fan is an extremely outstanding genius. Not only is he extremely talented and intelligent, he is also experienced and skilled in dealing with people.

Before that incident happened, no one could see his true face, and everyone had high hopes for him, believing that he would become the next Emperor of Heaven.

Since the gods have no descendants, Emperor Difan is likely to become the sole master of heaven.

But...things are unpredictable, and no one could have expected what would happen later.

Sikong Yu laughed and said leisurely: [“As an elder, I still have to step forward to help.”]

Just as Sikong Yu worried, it attracted the attention of the immortals.

Is there really a person in this world who is about to attain enlightenment and is forcibly breaking through at this time?
Naturally, they would pay attention to such future competitors.

then……

They were confused.

Why is it you again! !? (End of this chapter)
