Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person.

A newly grown wishing tree!

"why?"

The tree started as a small sapling, then grew rapidly, quickly filling the space of the divine soul. Chen Ruoan tried to touch it, but the tree itself did not respond with any information. The fox, who cultivated using the method of forming bonds, had not yet received its first treasure certificate.

Just as Chen Ruoan was wondering, a sudden explosion rang out in the sky, and a thunderbolt struck, instantly turning the wishing tree into a charred black, stripping it of its previous vitality.

"what?"

"You chopped down my tree, didn't you?"

No, it can even cleave through things in my soul. Could it be that I've been dragged into some terrible place?

Chapter 259 Where is my "little fox"?

Chen Ruoan's soul remained in a state of confusion and chaos for a while. When the rejection between his soul and body completely disappeared, he opened his eyes and saw three completely different perspectives.

"Field of vision segmentation?"

"wrong!"

The physical sensations, thought processes, and logic of action... everything about foxes was divided into three parts. Chen Ruoan remembered this experience, which was somewhat like being in a higher-dimensional space-time, looking down at himself in different timelines.

First-person perspective: Surrounded by complete darkness, Chen Ruoan still holds the title "Xuantian Emperor" in the current timeline, but his worship is waning, with only a brother and sister as his followers. The fox has almost no external perception, but can determine the current time as 2020 through prayers.

Second perspective: Chen Ruoan is attached to the pendant that prays for peace. The outside environment is extremely noisy, probably a lively family. The elders and younger generations often bicker, but they are also happy.

Judging from their conversation, the group was at a Taoist temple where the elders knew some talisman-making and protective techniques. They had some skills, but not many; they were of average talent.

The timeframe here is before 2020.

Third-person perspective: Chen Ruoan is inside a curtained carriage, surrounded by a large army. This is an ancient dynasty, seemingly conducting some kind of sacrificial ceremony, with offerings including cattle, sheep, horses, and countless beautiful jades.

On either side of the carriage, maids lined up, dressed in long gowns of silk and linen blend, embroidered with minimalist cloud patterns and adorned with jade ornaments. These maids had been carefully selected; they were quite beautiful, making the scenery behind the curtains a delight to behold.

···

“In the past, I was still some kind of revered deity. Perhaps something happened in the future that caused my future self to be sealed away.” Chen Ruoan deduced this complete timeline based on three perspectives.

Compared to future eras, ancient dynasties with their simple beliefs are more suitable for foxes.

To figure out which bolt of lightning struck his soul, Chen Ruoan needed to choose a version of himself at his most powerful.

"Let me see what's going on?"

Chen Ruoan calmed her mind and chose to return from the third-person perspective, where her senses were clearest. As her soul descended, she saw a curtain inlaid with gold thread before her eyes and soft animal hides beneath her feet.

The car was equipped with only the finest goods, demonstrating the believers' devotion to Chen Ruoan.

"Ok?"

Chen Ruoan sensed something was wrong. She was wearing light and soft pointed silk shoes and a crimson silk skirt, with the collar and hem of her clothes trimmed with dark black silk... From a normal person's aesthetic point of view, the clothing was too feminine.

And what is this heavy feeling in my chest?

Chen Ruoan touched the two soft mounds of flesh, then suddenly leaned back and looked down in disbelief, almost unable to believe the sensation in his palms.

Why are my pectoral muscles so exaggerated?

A bad feeling crept into Chen Ruoan's mind, and he immediately reached between his thighs. He was right; all the talk about chickens had come to nothing!

Where is my little fox?

"I have become a woman."

Ancient texts record that mythical beasts that cultivate will forget their gender over long periods of time. But such a thing is still too far off for Chen Ruoan, who has cultivated for two hundred years.

Chen Ruoan took a deep breath, as if remembering something, and raised his hands, his palms radiating a dense, crimson aura. The methods used by the extraordinary individuals had been inherited exactly as they were.

With his "two hands" (meaning he can handle both hands), pinching a stick is still a piece of cake.

Chen Ruoan was very depressed, so he tried to use his life-saving technique to modify his body.

The moment this thought arose, the world outside the curtain changed.

An extraordinary natural phenomenon!

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, flames flickered, and a violent thunderstorm brewed within the clouds. The women and soldiers accompanying the carriage stopped and looked up at the awe-inspiring power of the heavens.

Chen Ruoan paused, lifted the curtain and looked outside. She felt that the thunder that had been slow to strike was very similar to the one that had struck the wishing tree.

Although thunderstorms don't have a specific shape, Chen Ruoan still had that feeling.

"Could it be... that this world possesses something that can see through outsiders, and my current identity is to escape the world's punishment!"

Chen Ruoan gradually came to understand everything.

He lowered his hand, the red aura vanished, and the strange phenomena that had arisen in the air ceased.

A maid, her face streaked with tears, wiped them as she entered the carriage and asked with concern, "Your Majesty, did I frighten you?"

"I am fine."

"The Queen, a noblewoman of her tribe, sacrificed herself for her family and country, fleeing to the royal capital. From then on, her homeland was thousands of miles away, never to return. Even Heaven could no longer bear to see this. King Zhou of Shang was tyrannical; his demise was inevitable!"

King Zhou of Shang?

The Investiture of the Gods!?

The fox suddenly felt a darkness before its eyes.

"No, no, no, the Shang Dynasty also existed in history, there's no need to be too pessimistic. What if, what if it was a low-powered dynasty from some story?" the fox comforted itself.

Chen Ruoan's mind was a complete mess. She tried different lines of questioning to extract useful information and finally figured out a few facts: she was wearing top-quality silk, a specialty of the Su clan; the war in her hometown tribe had just ended, but the smoke of war had not yet cleared, and the tribe's chief had paid tribute to ensure the survival of the tribe.

At this time, the sun hangs in the autumn sky, the light is pale, and the ancient loess road stretches slowly to the northeast, leading directly to Chaoge, thousands of miles away.

The fox queen's surname was Ji and her given name was Da, and she belonged to the noble family of You Su.

"Forehead---"

"what--"

Despite his advanced cultivation, Chen Ruoan was still unable to withstand the bizarre development of the situation. He sat blankly in the car, his eyes unfocused.

"To help me adapt to this world and avoid punishment, they arranged an identity for me—"

"I've become Su Daji!"

The curtains fell low again, concealing all the emotions in Chen Ruoan's eyes.

The royal city ahead is majestic, and the emperor is unpredictable. The infamy and calamities, the rights and wrongs, the merits and demerits of a thousand years later will all take shape at this moment.

What made Chen Ruoan even more desperate was that the camp responsible for the handover between the two sides was just ahead, and many soldiers of the Shang Dynasty had been waiting for a long time. Soon, the fox would be transferred to Chaoge, where Di Xin would call her "beauty" one after another.

"Damn it, just kill me already!"

Chen Ruoan frowned as she watched the accompanying elders and Shang Jun exchange words. Guided by the clan elders, she lifted the curtain and slowly stepped out of the carriage.

The fox was born with stunning beauty and a gentle, graceful nature. A group of soldiers were momentarily captivated by her dark, cloud-like hair, almond-shaped face, peach-blossom cheeks, and slender waist.

On the night of the successful handover, Chen Ruoan spent almost the entire night in a daze. If she had known that "ascension" was such a dangerous scam, she would have preferred to stay in Taishan and live a peaceful life as a fox spirit.

The impact of the punishment is unknown, but based on Su Daji's original fate, Chen Ruoan estimates that she will meet a catastrophic end under the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife.

Or they could simply immolate themselves together with Emperor Xin in the Star-Picking Tower, committing suicide together for love.

Chen Ruoan was confined to the tent, her freedom restricted. Moonlight streamed in, covering the floor with a blanket of white frost. The fox, guided by the moonlight, discovered that her innate cultivation instincts remained, and that the world would not interfere with them.

"At least there's still a glimmer of hope."

As Chen Ruoan absorbed the moonlight, the wind outside the tent grew stronger, and his keen fox ears caught the soldiers' idle chatter in the shadows.

"Have you heard? Those powerful beings are preparing for another war of cause and effect. Every war is a major event that can affect the course of history. I wonder if our Shang Dynasty can survive it."

The person on the other end replied, "Important people have important matters to worry about. It would have been a great thing for us to use our supernatural powers to do things in the dynasty. But now it seems we might not be able to avoid being affected."

"Um!?"

Chen Ruoan was almost scared out of her wits: "What do you mean by the War of Cause and Effect? ​​Where did you come from? Wasn't the thing that chopped me up before called the 'Punishment of the Law of Cause and Effect'?"

Chapter 260 The Grand Stage of Sun and Moon, Don't Come If You're Not Already Caught

Good news: This is not a war between gods and demons or a story of magical weapons being thrown around randomly.

The bad news is that "Sun and Moon Are Wrong Together" is a story where cheaters and powerful figures dominate.

Chen Ruoan huddled in the corner of the tent, a half-smile on her face.

When you achieved great success in your cultivation, you made a decision to dedicate your life to pursuing the Dao. Later, you did not die, but the wishing tree paid for your life.

"Are you kidding me?"

"Is the difference between the cultivation systems of the two worlds too great?" Chen Ruoan rubbed his forehead. His past memories were very blurry, but he could remember the background of the world and the basic settings.

Since ancient times, the living have been fighting against the Nirvana corpses.

Countless seekers died in battle, yet they found no way to eliminate the enemy.

The Undying Corpse Lord, the Corpse Immortal of Ten Thousand Karmas, and the King of Nirvana all exist simultaneously within the three causal realms of the past, present, and future. At any single point in time, it is impossible to completely annihilate them.

As long as this monster that transcends cause and effect exists, the undead will be continuously regenerated and endlessly restored, rendering all the efforts of seekers of the Dharma throughout history meaningless.

The Corpse Immortal of Myriad Causes and the Corpse Immortal of Nirvana are the same thing. The living corpse that is resurrected after the seeker of the Dharma receives the true blood of myriad causes after death not only has intelligence that is no less than that of a human and a body as strong as refined iron, but also has elusive supernatural powers and spells.

The techniques acquired by extraordinary individuals are fundamentally different from the supernatural powers of those who seek them, and their expressiveness is vastly different as well.

Chen Ruoan was unsure whether the fox, considered the most powerful among the superhumans, would be kicked to death by the Nirvana Corpse, who mistook it for a stray dog. If it encountered a powerful magic corpse, it would probably be difficult to clean itself if it stuck to someone's feet.

The grand stage of the sun and moon, don't come if you're not on it.

Just kidding, even if there's a cheat code, you should think twice.

"The future looks bleak."

"You're making my two hundred years of cultivation seem incredibly dull!"

A new round of causal battles is imminent, and the environment for those seeking the Dharma to cultivate is harsh; their secular background is not much better either. They are about to meet Emperor Xin, and if they cannot find a suitable reason to evade or refuse, they may end up being stabbed by the man.

"No!"

Chen Ruoan recalled two other perspectives: her future self was sealed off, not dead. As long as the vision of the future remained, the situation hadn't deteriorated to the point of no return.

Let's assume we follow Su Daji's fate and let her first enter Chaoge.
