Chapter 401: Nine-Colored Cloud Dream Flower Erupts!
“She says her master can only provide her with ten seconds of power, and in those ten seconds… she will eliminate us!!!”
As Tianhe Nu relayed the message, Shui Jingtian froze, then burst into laughter.
A high-rank spirit beast, claiming to be able to defeat them in ten seconds? Preposterous!
As Shui Jingtian laughed, Tianhe Nu’s expression hardened, its gentle eyes narrowing as it stared at the small fox.
“Do you really think a high-rank spirit beast, facing legendary beings, would make such a claim without a reason?”
“…”
“…”
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
The world turned upside down, a dizzying, disorienting sensation.
Before Shui Jingtian could even react, its black and white elemental body exploded, its fragments scattering.
As everyone watched in disbelief, a massive, pink fox tail, emerging from the void, grazed Tianhe Nu’s head, sending Shui Jingtian’s shattered remains flying.
The small, pink fox, holding a petal-shaped spirit diagram, its massive, illusory tail swelling like a grotesque, unstoppable balloon, a monstrous, pink, furry appendage.
Tianhe Nu’s eyes widened in shock, and it raised its arms, its hands grasping at the air, trying to tear open the space.
Whoosh!!!
A massive surge of water spirit energy, a crushing weight, pressed down, threatening to pulverize the entire Black Moon Dead Tower Palace.
The area around the Nine-Colored Cloud Dream Flower was the epicenter of the flood, the small lotus flower beneath its feet trembling, but the little fox’s expression remained resolute.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
Four or five more pink tails erupted from the Cloud Dream Flower’s spirit diagram petal, swirling and lashing out, a chaotic flurry of motion.
Each swing of the massive tails created a deafening boom, shattering Tianhe Nu’s watery form, its pure power overwhelming.
Finally, as all nine tails emerged, the space within the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace began to crack and crumble under the strain.
Boom!
As the tails slammed down, the watery river shattered, a massive chasm splitting the earth.
The mere aftershock of the attack was enough to make Tianhe Nu bleed, its face pale, its eyes wide with disbelief.
What kind of power was this?
What was this high-rank spirit beast?
Its aura was clearly only high-rank, but its spirit diagram… it was unleashing power beyond even a Saint-rank!!!
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish—
Before anyone could react, the nine fox tails unfurled, enveloping Tianhe Nu, like petals closing around a flower.
The tails tightened, their grip like a vise, blood oozing out.
Tianhe Nu’s fate… unknown.
Then, the little fox, tilting its head like a curious child, turned its gaze towards the black and white elemental figure, its aura flickering, its expression filled with terror.
At this moment, not only Shui Jingtian, but everyone watching the broadcast was stunned into silence.
The entire maze within the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace was filled with massive, pink fox tails, each one tens of kilometers long, leaving no room for escape, not even for the Three Celestial Seats.
And this was the Sorrowful Saintess’s weakest spirit beast?
Slap!
Shui Jingtian, having just recovered, was sent flying by a casual swipe of a fox tail.
The space around it distorted, its body, along with fragments of the shattered wall and its own spirit energy, disappearing from view.
Before it could even land, another tail wrapped around it, slamming it into the ground, crushing it into a pulpy mess, a massive crater forming.
A completely one-sided beatdown!!!
As the Nine-Colored Cloud Dream Flower continued its rampage, several of its tails gently scooped up the scattered trial participants, hiding them within its soft, fluffy fur.
The Cloud Moon Sovereign, the Ice Soul Jade Rabbit, and the other legendary spirit beasts, enveloped in the protective embrace of the fox tails, felt a strange sense of… safety.
With a few sweeps, the fox tails had gathered most of the trial participants, only a few, likely caught in the crossfire of the legendary battle, missing. Fortunately, all the legendary beings and Lord Attendants were accounted for.
Then, the nine pink fox tails slammed into a distant wall.
“Boom!!!!!”
A deafening roar, the entire space cracking, even the Sea Concubine Palace outside trembling, the earth shaking.
A massive hole appeared in the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace’s body, a gateway to the outside world, the light streaming in. Sensing the dense water spirit energy, many of the trapped trial participants wept with relief.
As the Sea Concubine Palace members watched in shock, the giant fox tails gently deposited the rescued trial participants outside, then retracted, the hole in the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace’s body closing.
According to the plan, the little fox should have escaped after freeing the others, but it seemed to have other ideas.
This was a rare occurrence. The Nine-Colored Cloud Dream Flower had disobeyed Gong Lianyue’s orders…
Within the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace, Shui Jingtian and Tianhe Nu, their bodies battered and bruised, lay on the ground, their flesh repeatedly torn apart by the fox tails, only their durable cores and rapid regeneration keeping them alive.
If they could just touch that little fox, they could crush it instantly, but the Nine-Colored Cloud Dream Flower was now completely hidden within its massive tails, its true form inaccessible.
The nine swirling fox tails reminded Shui Jingtian and Tianhe Nu of a certain… infamous being.
The Peach Blossom Concubine, a being of supreme power, obsessed with violence and reproduction…
Although this little fox clearly wasn’t the Peach Blossom Concubine, its small, delicate form seemed to… overlap with hers.
Just then, the space within the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace began to tremble again.
A dark, shadowy aura, a chilling presence, rapidly approaching. At this critical juncture, the final member of the Three Celestial Seats had arrived!
The Sea Region… plunged into despair.
Boom——!!!!
Suddenly, before the third Celestial Seat could even fully materialize, a massive fox tail lashed out, its violent force shattering the encroaching aura.
The spirit energy dissipated, the spatial rift closing, the third Celestial Seat repelled.
Seeing this, Shui Jingtian’s eye twitched, and Tianhe Nu’s expression hardened. This opponent… it was far more powerful than they had anticipated… How could they possibly defeat it…?
Meanwhile, hidden within the soft fur of the giant fox tail, the little fox opened its beautiful pink eyes, a gentle, affectionate gaze.
Its vision, transcending space, piercing through the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace’s body, locked onto the holy, blue-haired girl outside.
Just as it had done before, it would once again save Gong Lianyue…
At this moment, the Nine-Colored Cloud Dream Flower was determined to defeat the remaining two Celestial Seats, alone!!!
