Chapter 76 Unlucky Host
After a while.
Yingmenfang Market.
Outside the Treasure Pavilion.
"Was this a top-tier magical artifact used to conceal its aura?"
"They certainly have a lot of tricks up their sleeves."
"This aura seems to belong to a little fox?"
"No wonder he's so cautious."
Crimson Eyes, clad in a dark red robe, formed hand seals, and his previously vague perception instantly became clear.
Immediately, Akame cast a spirit-tracking spell.
It immediately locked onto the little fox's aura, transformed into a barely visible dark red streak of light, and headed towards the location of the fox's aura, instantly flying across several streets.
...
...
On the streets of Fangshi.
Lin Li was still disguised as an old man with a long face, heading towards the location of the small trading meeting that Ouyang Jue had told him about.
Just then, a few steps in front of Lin Li, a gaunt rat demon wearing a dark red robe appeared out of thin air, standing with his hands behind his back.
Although this rat demon was not tall, it was half a head shorter than him.
But the moment the rat demon appeared, an immense, abyss-like pressure enveloped it, making it difficult for it to move.
"Forming... Core Formation!?"
At this moment, Lin Li, who was suppressed in place by divine sense, had an incredulous shock flash in his eyes.
Why was I targeted by this Core Formation Rat Demon?
"And isn't there only one Core Formation cultivator in this Giant Shadow City?!"
"This Core Formation Rat Demon..."
"The bones of the Xuan Yuan Treasure-Swallowing Rat."
In an instant, Lin Li understood.
It was the treasure-devouring rat's spirit bone that was sold to the Treasure Pavilion that caused the trouble.
But how could he know that the Core Formation cultivator who was stationed in Giant Shadow City was actually a rat demon?
This is just... just incredibly unlucky.
If he had known that the Core Formation cultivator who was stationed in Giant Shadow City was a rat demon, he would never have taken the risk in the Treasure Pavilion.
"what?"
"How can the vitality within you, little fox, be so strong?"
At this moment, Chi Tong looked at Lin Li, who was frozen in place. Under the influence of his Core Formation Divine Sense, it could be said that the fox's true appearance and the aura of the Dharma Seed within its body were completely exposed to him.
However, what surprised Chi Tong was the incredible vitality emanating from this little fox, which was only in the early stages of Foundation Establishment. This little fox must be at least four hundred years old.
"Such a young spiritual body, truly remarkable."
"It could serve as a backup spirit for possession."
With a flick of his finger, a wisp of blood energy flew out from between Lin Li's eyebrows and was drawn into his hand.
"What a pity!"
"With only a second-tier, lower-grade bloodline aptitude, reaching the late Foundation Establishment stage is the maximum."
"A late-stage Foundation Establishment body, combined with my magic weapon, is barely enough to qualify."
With a slight thought, the wisp of blood energy floating in the palm of his hand suddenly dissipated.
The next moment, Chi Tong swept up the forest in front of him and transformed into a dark red streak of light, heading straight for the summit of Xuan Ying Mountain.
After more than ten breaths.
Xuanying Mountain.
Beneath a thousand-year-old locust tree on the mountaintop.
A gentle breeze blew by, causing the hem of Akame's robe to sway slightly. At this moment, Lin Li, standing in front of Akame, had revealed his true form as a spirit fox.
"The bloodline of the Four-Eared Spirit Fox".
"To be able to cultivate to the early stage of Foundation Establishment at such a young age, one must have had some extraordinary opportunities."
After saying that, Akame raised her hand and took the storage bag from Lin Li's body, casually erasing the restriction on the storage bag.
After opening the storage bag.
He then took out the remaining spirit bones from the storage bag.
Looking at the remaining few dark spirit bones, the bloodline and spiritual energy within them were almost non-existent. Even if the spirit armor of the Treasure Pavilion sacrificed a small portion of its lifespan to nurture them, their spiritual energy would still be far inferior to the previous few pieces.
Akame felt a little disappointed.
He tossed the storage bag back to Lin Li in front of him.
"I am Chi Tong, the Supreme Elder of the Thousand Shadows Pavilion. Would you be willing to become my disciple?"
"With your talent, becoming my personal disciple, you will definitely have the opportunity to advance to the late stage of Foundation Establishment within the next fifty years."
"There's even a one-in-one chance of him reaching the Core Formation stage."
The crimson eyes revealed their true nature, and the amber eyes gazed at the little fox before him.
If they are unwilling, then suppress them and then subdue them.
"Disciple Liu Ya greets Master!"
Lin Li understood the meaning behind those words very well. On the surface, he pretended to struggle for a moment, looking as if he had no choice but to accept his fate, and bowed respectfully.
He knew in his heart that this was the only option.
That old devil is just lusting after his body.
When he spoke of his vibrant life, a hint of longing flashed in his eyes, revealing his true nature.
Before this old ghost passed away, he must have wanted to possess my spirit fox body.
However, regardless of whether one is at the Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, or even the Nascent Soul stage, one can only possess another body once, and after possessing another body, one can only obtain a portion of the lifespan of the possessed body.
But that's alright, at least he's not destined to live only one lifetime.
In this world, we can make use of the resources of this old ghost who has reached the Core Formation stage to collect as many Core Formation bloodlines as possible.
Furthermore, the higher the realm, the stronger the acquired attributes.
Even if my physical body is possessed, I'll make sure that old ghost knows what it means for a reincarnated person to take revenge even after a hundred years.
"it is good."
"This is my divine sense token; keep it safe."
"Afterwards, I will also send a message to the other two Core Formation disciples of Thousand Shadows Pavilion."
"Have them announce to the entire sect that now that you have become my personal disciple, you will enjoy endless benefits within the sect."
"As for your past, do with it as you see fit."
Akame was quite pleased to see that the little fox was so sensible.
"Um?"
Suddenly, as if sensing something, Akame took out an ancient-looking jade slip for transmitting sound from her storage bag.
His expression changed slightly.
It was Zhang Laomo, who was also at the early stage of Core Formation. This old demon was ruthless and could kill even his own disciples who had been trained for many years without hesitation.
This message may not be a good thing.
Immediately, a wisp of divine sense probed into the communication jade slip.
"Red-Eyed Old Ghost, hurry to Thousand Absolute Mountain to aid us! The old monkey and I have stolen the token from the Yellow Springs Ancient City, and we won't be able to hold out for long."
"Bring one more human Core Formation cultivator from your Thousand Shadows Pavilion."
"Those two old dogs from the Black Wind Sect and that black mudskipper from East Spirit Mountain are acting like madmen. Bring your best magical weapons and come quickly!!"
Zhang Laomo's urgent voice came from the jade slip.
"The Token of the Ancient City of the Underworld!"
Upon hearing Zhang Laomo's telepathic message, a strange light flashed in Chi Tong's eyes.
The Yellow Springs Ancient City is a secret realm left behind by the Nascent Soul sect, which is extremely tempting to them, the Core Formation stage cultivators.
"Please cultivate well in the mountains. Your master will be right back if I need to go!"
Without hesitation, Chi Tong transformed into a streak of dark red light and vanished into the layers of clouds in the blink of an eye.
The forest standing beneath the thousand-year-old locust tree seems to be lost in thought.
It would be better if that old demon with red eyes died out there!
'I wonder what treasures are hidden in that old man's cave?'
Lin Li's gaze fell on a cave several hundred paces away, where two locust trees were planted outside the cave entrance.
With one step, it transformed into a streak of azure light and appeared outside the cave.
Lin Li took out the divine sense token left to him by Chi Tong, and an oval portal that could only be passed through by one person opened on the array light screen in front of him.
