Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person.

Just as Chen Ruoan was about to deal with the two special forces ninjas, Long Tai, wielding a katana, shouted something like "Second brother, run!" and "I'll hold him off!" and ran towards the fox.

"Big brother!" Long Zhi cried out in heartbreaking grief.

What a deep bond between brothers!

With a flick of his two fingers, the fox refined the fishing line, which, along with the fishing rod, became stuck in Long Zhi's hand. Now, trying to escape was nothing but a pipe dream.

The fishing lines swam and changed under Chen Ruoan's control. The silvery threads wrapped around Long Tai's wrist, and with a little more force, the sharp lines cut off his right hand holding the knife, leaving him hanging in the air with scarlet blood.

"Since we can't get any answers out of you, let's not waste any more time."

After all, foxes aren't demons, and they're not capable of cruel killings. After thinking about it, I decided to use fishing line to make the two of them hang themselves from a tree branch in the southeast. It would be more aesthetically pleasing than having their organs scattered all over the ground after they committed seppuku.

Swish!

Silver threads danced in the air as two ninjas were entangled around the neck and hung from a thick tree trunk not far away.

pat!

After finishing, Chen Ruoan hadn't gone far when he heard four loud thuds behind him.

Today, the fox learned something: the body of an alien who has not undergone external training is not as strong as imagined. When the alien's neck and the thick tree trunk were both struggling against the fishing line, the neck broke first. Is that reasonable?

My knowledge of strange supernatural beings has increased once again.

Chen Ruoan dealt with the three members of the special ninja unit, and Wugensheng also handled the four pursuing ninjas. The man with a shaved head waved to the fox from afar:

"Fox, fox! Why are you running off to Mianshan instead of guarding the territory of Changbai Mountain?"

Chen Ruoan made no attempt to hide his disgust for the leader of the "Quanxing" sect. However, when the sect leader's leader came to the mountain to cause trouble and make a scene, regardless of his initial intentions, the fact remained that they would fight the enemy together. So, Fox temporarily put him aside.

Instead of answering Wugensheng's question, the fox asked, "The leader of the ninja clan is dead. Was it your people who did it?"

"Dead?" Judging from Wugensheng's reaction, this good deed was not done by "Quanxing".

The Quanxing sect possesses communication methods no less advanced than the Wang family's Yin-Yang paper. Knowing that the Bihe Renzhong sect was passing through Mianshan, Wugensheng brought a few restless villains here, but they had only just arrived.

"How strange! The death of Ren Shou was not the work of your righteous sects, nor the work of us wicked folk. So who else could it be?"

Chen Ruoan was equally curious about Ono Noriyoshi, who was cautious and suspicious. In the original work, Tang Jiaren, the Laughing Yama, almost paid the price of his life to dispel his doubts in exchange for the opportunity to get close to "Dan Shi".

After the death of the ninja leader, the Tang Clan suffered even more frenzied retaliation. But now, apart from the Mianshan Daluo Palace being implicated and suffering an undeserved disaster, no other famous clan has been heard of being attacked by ninjas.

Unable to guess, the fox and Wugensheng sat on the left and right sides of the leafy tree, thinking about their next plan.

Ono Noriyoshi died, the situation eased, but the fox inexplicably felt a sense of loss. It was like accepting a special mission with a short time limit in a game, but the final boss was defeated by an unknown NPC who happened to pass by.

It's unclear which righteous person intervened.

The fox glanced to the side, remembering the Japanese and puppet troops who had gone out to chase after people, and asked, "Master of Quanxing, the troops that went out should be returning soon. Is it appropriate for you to stay here?"

"We're on the same side now, aren't we comrades-in-arms? Can you bear to see me being hunted down by the Japanese invaders?"

The fox said bluntly, "I just watched you being chased by ninjas in the forest."

What's so great about a gang leader? Does he really think he's a succubus and wants to be a fox's accessory?

“If you say that, we can’t have a friendly conversation.” Wugensheng shrugged, preparing to get up and leave. Before leaving, he added, “The current ninjas are no different from a pack of mad dogs. They’re leaderless and act in chaos. The real troublemakers are the Japanese and puppet troops. If you ask me, these guns are really good stuff. Why bother practicing kung fu when you have guns?”

Chen Ruoan replied, "The Quanxing Sect Leader is incredibly powerful and knows everything in the industry. Guns and ammunition are nothing to worry about."

"Hmm?" No matter how Wugensheng thought about it, he felt that something was wrong with what the fox said.

Is the fox really hoping I die?

"The spirit of the gods" can manage the methods of using Qi. If this were used to manage ammunition, wouldn't the whole body be riddled with bullet holes, and the person would be picked up and used as a watering can!

"Let's go." Feeling bored, Wugensheng jumped down from the branch. Before he could disappear into the dense forest to conceal himself, the Japanese and puppet troops returning from their voyage blew their whistles, clearly indicating that they had spotted him.

boom! boom! boom!

As soon as the gunshot rang out, the fox also flipped over and jumped down.

Wugensheng shouted, "Get ready to run, you fox! You're all flesh and blood; there's no need to fight bullets."

Looking back, the fox shed its glossy black coat, its fur now tinged with white, and it charged resolutely towards the pursuing armed troops, stepping on swirling white flames.

"Reversed life?"

Wu Gensheng vividly remembered the method of transforming Qi into tendons, bones, skin, and flesh. Now, seeing this scene again, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

Although the "Triple Rebirth" technique cultivated by the Third School does not possess extraordinary power, it is undeniably stylish and elegant when executed. In the midst of a hail of bullets on the battlefield, it exudes a sense of ease and grace.

Chapter 125 A Fox Descends from the Sky, Furious and Ferocious

Wugensheng fled, screams echoing behind him. Then, the sounds of plants bursting through the soil and fireworks exploding rang out. Amidst the heat and ripples of air, a Type 14 pistol, commonly known as the "Turtle Box," fell to the ground in front of him.

"Hey! Good stuff!"

"If you ask me, I should learn from those Taoist priests who come down the mountain to save the world, holding incense in my left hand and a gun in my right. I should also offer incense and fire my gun when it's time to fire."

Wugensheng picked up his pistol and walked forward with it. The ninjas hiding in the mountains noticed the army's unusual movement and came out to help. Two of them met Wugensheng head-on.

boom!

Wugensheng was not polite either. A bullet pierced the ninja's chest, and when he pulled the trigger a second time, it hit another person right between the eyebrows.

Staring at the fallen corpse, Wugensheng chuckled softly: "Should we say that the aliens are pedantic and arrogant, or that the Japanese collaborators are stupid and foolish? If we were to equip the ninjas with guns and ammunition, things would be much more complicated."

One should not be too rigid in one's thinking.

Boom!

The shockwave behind him surged again, and Chen Ruoan nearly routed the elite squad and the puppet troops, who fled in panic, abandoning their armor and weapons.

As the red sun sets in the distance, the horizon turns a blood-red hue, and the wind, carrying the smoke of battle, blows towards the lonely distant mountains.

As the sun sets and the Milky Way appears, the fox stands atop the highest peak, waiting for the clear, jade-like moon to appear so it can use its radiance to replenish the energy depleted from its journey and battles.

News came from afar that the Tang Clan and the Shangqing Daoists might be arriving soon—the effectiveness of the Divine Travel Talisman depends on the skill of the talisman maker and the cultivation level of the user; the arrival time of these fellow Daoists far exceeded the fox's expectations.

Mianshan South Peak is located in Lingshi County. It is a peak with an altitude of over 2,500 meters. The sky is low and the clouds are close. The air is clear but thin. There is no warmth during the day and it is even more damp and cold at night.

To accommodate his fellow travelers, the fox took a short rest and then met up with the group at the foot of the mountain.

The first to arrive was the head of the Tang Clan, followed by several Taoist priests from the Shangqing Sect. Late at night, Tang Tongbi and his wife, along with Gao Yingcai, Li Ding, and others, also arrived one after another.

As soon as Tang Tongbi landed, he said, "I heard about the death of Ren Tou on the way here. I thought the Emperor had succeeded, but I didn't expect there was such a powerful and capable person. I wonder if this person has retired after achieving his goal."

"I hope so," the fox replied softly.

Tang Jiaren gazed at the silent mountains. The more desolate the mountains were, the stronger the atmosphere felt, as if a great event was about to unfold. The Tang Clan had accepted money from Boss Zhao, but the core task had been completed by someone else. Now, all the Tang Clan could do was to clean up the remaining members of the Bihe Ren.

"We're both assassins, but the other side chooses to act openly and honestly. We can't abandon the traditional skills of assassins. Now, everyone go and rest for three hours to adjust. Let's try to finish everything before sunrise."

The master gave the order, and the group complied without hesitation.

While everyone was resting, Chen Ruoan continued to return to the summit to absorb the moonlight and use the Profound Yin Life Protection Technique to regulate his body.

The fox's golden eyes gazed at the steep and treacherous mountain terrain, observing the natural barrier formed by the lush forests. Any easy escape routes had been blocked by the fox with thorns and poisonous plants.

The saying goes, "If you kill someone, you either don't kill them or you kill their whole family." Although this is a twisted logic held by bandits and thugs in ancient times, it seems quite appropriate when applied to ordinary people.

Unfortunately, besides Ono Noriyoshi's infiltration into China, Japan also retained a team with different ideologies from the old ninja. If they had all come, it would have been easier; they could have wiped them out in one fell swoop, and there would have been no more battles at the "Through-the-Sky Hole".

pity.

Chen Ruo waited patiently. At the darkest moment before dawn, the sky was shrouded in a mixture of light and dark blue, with only a faint wisp of white light shining through from the east.

A biting wind howled, the pines rustled in the breeze, and a cold mist clung to the cliff walls and ruins.

"Here you go." Tang Jiaren handed the fox a device that looked like a Dragon Ball radar.

Guanyuan, a product of Tang Sect's weapon crafting, can display the location of the initiator within a disc after being activated. Within a certain detection range, it can also display the location of the enemy based on the different flow of Qi energy within the body, with our side represented by red dots and the enemy by white dots.

Chen Ruoan took the Guanyuan artifact and examined its divine light. Judging from the pale blue luster, it was a low-to-medium grade magic weapon.

The fox's golden eyes can discern the flow of Qi within a person's body and the way they use Qi. It can also observe the unique Qi patterns that exist in the mountains and fields. In matters of exploration, Guanyuan is a good supplement.

"Here, let me give you a boost."

Chen Ruoan manipulated the Guanyuan Garden with both hands, and the pale blue light gradually intensified, eventually turning into a vibrant purple.

In terms of the quality of magical artifacts, white comes before blue, and blue comes before purple. By using unique refining methods, one can further enhance and strengthen the attributes of magical artifacts.

The area around the garden, which the fox had manipulated to reveal its treasure, was now much larger.

"Amazing." Tang Jiaren exclaimed sincerely, looking at the layout of the mountain with his disciples. There were many white dots scattered in the outer areas of the mountain, but in a remote, dangerous, and extremely hidden cliff, the white dots were almost clustered together.

"This should be the core base of the Higanbana ninja."

Chen Ruoan glanced at it: "A direct attack will lead to a counter-encirclement by the ninja on the outside. We still need to eliminate the hidden spies outside. In addition, we need to be more vigilant against the Japanese and puppet troops who are the real threat."

Tang Jiaren instructed, "The task of holding off the armed troops is to be handled by Li Ding, who is wearing black-tipped armor, and Gao Yingcai, who is skilled in controlling weapons. Remember, they should remain hidden and not reveal themselves."

Li Ding gestured to the black, close-fitting soft armor made of fine iron scales and laughed loudly, "Master, you can rest assured."

"Let's do it!"

Several figures suddenly separated in the shadows, their footsteps light and silent, each disappearing into the vast forest, steep cliffs and narrow paths, vanishing into the silence of the deep mountains.

The red dots in the garden dispersed and instantly collided with some white dots. The Japanese and puppet troops in the northwest, east, and south launched their operations. Another white dot squad of unknown origin became entangled with the team in the southeast. It must have been Wugensheng leading his disciples, who were "skilled but lacking in morality," to continue "venting."

"I think I said something wrong." Chen Ruoan murmured to himself. Now that all sides are deadlocked and the enemy's main camp is isolated and without support, it is the perfect opportunity for Yi Hu to advance and surround them.

Moreover, with the loss of Ono Noriyoshi and the addition of the powerful Nikaido Eita, the only troublesome opponents left are an Onmyoji who controls the Nine Shikigami, an invisible female ninja, Sakon and Ukon, Lady Kyo, a strongman, and the old ninja bodyguard hiding in the shadows.

Chen Ruoan used the Guanyuan probe to observe the movements of the ninjas in the core area, and flew towards that secluded and hidden hiding place.

Deep in the mountains, hidden in secluded ravines.

In a secluded and desolate place where even birds and beasts are hard to find, the members of the Bihe Ninja Group held their breath and were on high alert, fully wary of any movement from the outside world.

The sky was still shrouded in the pale blue of dawn when suddenly, dark clouds gathered overhead, a mountain wind whistled through the forest, and a chill swept through. In an instant, dense yin energy rapidly accumulated beneath the clouds, like a condensed black waterfall, crashing down from the cloud mass above—

A fox fell from the sky!

But there was no anger or ferocity, only confusion.

The Hiei ninja force before Chen Ruoan was weaker than he had imagined. There were no Sakon or Ukon, no Lady Kyo, no samurai, only a hidden female ninja, plus an Onmyoji from the Tsuchimikado family, and a tengu wearing a red mask.

The golden fox's eyes narrowed slightly. What puzzled the fox was not the fear and weakness in the eyes of the ninja opposite, but the scenery that suddenly appeared behind them.

Within a space less than a hundred meters square, a venomous mist slowly billowed, like crumpled purple gauze, soft and ethereal, dyeing the surroundings a hazy pale purple.

The mist trembled slightly, drifting over the cliff face and wild grass. The smell in the mist was not as pungent as ordinary poisonous gas, but rather carried a cool and exotic fragrance.
