Chapter 371 Master and Junior Sister 2
On the altar, there were complex runes engraved, emitting a faint blue light, which intertwined with the black spiritual power emanating from the black fox, forming a strange and dangerous picture.
Apparently, the Black Fox is performing some sort of unholy ritual in an attempt to awaken or harness the ancient powers of the forbidden land.
"Who is this evildoer who dares to trespass into the forbidden area of our Dayan Sect?"
The sect leader roared angrily and pointed his sword at the black fox. Spiritual energy surged around him. The other disciples also drew their swords and surrounded the black fox. The atmosphere became extremely tense.
Nan Xi followed behind everyone. The black fox was the one in the heroine's arms, and the original owner was killed by it in the end.
Nan Xi looked at the lit formation, which she had set up last time. She didn't expect it to work.
A trace of unwillingness and anger flashed in the black fox's eyes. It had been very careful, but it didn't expect that there would be a formation in the forbidden area. There was clearly no formation when it came in last time. Who was trying to trick it?
"Ouch..."
It had to stop breaking the formation and howled towards the sky. Its spiritual energy was boiling and its black hair was dancing wildly in the night wind, as if it had turned into the most ferocious beast.
The leader rushed out first, the long sword in his hand flashing with cold light, pointing directly at the black fox. The other disciples followed suit, each using their own unique skills to attack the black fox.
Upon seeing this, the black fox roared angrily, and the spiritual power in his body surged, transforming into countless black spiritual blades, colliding with the attacks of the group.
Suddenly, spiritual energy overflowed in the forbidden area, the light shone brightly, and a deafening roar resounded through the sky.
The black fox suddenly leaped up, its body drawing a graceful arc in the air, and then struck forward like black lightning, with cold light flashing between its claws and fangs, pointing directly at the sect master's vital points.
The clan leader moved his body to the side, lightly tapped the ground with the tip of his sword, and used the force to fly into the air, cleverly avoiding the fatal blow. At the same time, he swung his sword back with a sword light like a dragon, heading straight for the black fox.
The black fox growled, turned flexibly, avoided the sect leader's counterattack, and took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the disciple nearby.
Its speed was so fast that it was astonishing, as if it had turned into a black whirlwind, weaving through the crowd. Each attack was accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking through the air, catching the disciples off guard.
Now there is no hope of breaking the formation, it must leave here first.
Sword lights intertwined, spiritual power collided, and the entire forbidden area seemed to have turned into a battlefield. The air was filled with a thick atmosphere of blood and murderous intent.
The black fox rushed left and right in the crowd, attacking with all its strength, but its physical strength was constantly being consumed.
The sect leader swung his sword, and the sword light cut through the night sky like a silk thread, accurately hitting the black fox's vital point.
The black fox let out a shrill scream, rolled several times in the air, and fell heavily on the altar.
Its eyes were filled with unwillingness and anger, and blood flowed out from its wounds, staining the altar red.
The black fox used up the last of his strength and let out an earth-shaking roar, as if to vent all his resentment and anger.
"Since we can't get out, let's die together."
Black Fox took one look at the altar and made a decision.
The black fox's roar was like the horn of doom, echoing in the forbidden land, making people shudder. It used up its last bit of strength and rushed to the center of the altar, which was the core of the entire forbidden land formation.
"The shadows are broken apart, the gate to the netherworld is opened!"
With the impact of the black fox, the ancient runes on the altar began to flash with strange light, as if they were activated.
The entire altar began to shake and make rumbling sounds, as if something was trying to break free and break out of the ground.
"Oh no! It's going to break the altar, open the magic-sealing formation, and release the monsters inside!"
The clan leader's face changed drastically, and he immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Everyone exit the forbidden area!"
When the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall heard the order, they all ran out of the forbidden area, but their speed was still too slow.
Black mist began to diffuse out from the cracks in the altar, accompanied by bursts of shrill wails.
The mist quickly condensed and transformed into monsters of various shapes. They had red eyes, exposed fangs, and exuded a frightening evil aura.
The forbidden area instantly turned into a battlefield, with monsters wreaking havoc everywhere, attacking all life within their reach.
The disciples fought hard, but the monsters were too numerous and too powerful, so they were soon caught in a bitter battle.
The sect leader took out a jade talisman from his storage ring. He looked reluctant as this was the last one. Finally, he threw the talisman onto the altar.
The jade talisman drew a dazzling light in the air and directly sank into the crack of the altar.
As the jade talisman was integrated, the cracks on the altar began to heal slowly and the black mist gradually dissipated.
Those monsters seemed to have lost the source of their power, and let out painful wails, eventually turning into wisps of black smoke and disappearing into the air.
The formation was finally repaired and the altar was sealed again.
The sect leader breathed a sigh of relief, the forbidden area was finally saved.
"Hey~ This black fox looks familiar."
"Yes, I think so too."
"I remember now, isn't this the one that the junior sister from Frost Peak usually holds?"
Everyone started talking about it, and the sect leader looked at Taoist Yun Yi thoughtfully.
Taoist Yun Yi naturally heard it as well. He looked at Xue Yao with an unpleasant expression.
Xue Yao knelt in the center of the hall and said, "Sect Master, Master, I really didn't know that the black fox was a monster. It is just a spirit beast that I picked up from the Forest of All Beasts."
Taoist Yun Yi said nothing. This matter could be a big deal or a small one, it all depends on how the sect master and the elders deal with it.
"I don't believe you don't know anything about it, Sect Master. I suggest searching your soul."
Xue Yao was trembling with fear. She didn't want her soul to be searched. It would cause too much damage to her. If she was not careful, her soul would be damaged, which would hinder her future promotion.
"Master..."
Daoist Yun Yi glanced at the Great Elder and said, "Great Elder, this is over. Although my disciple is not smart enough, he will not collude with monsters."
"Daoist Yun Yi is right. The soul-searching method is too harsh. It should not be used lightly unless it is absolutely necessary."
The clan leader spoke slowly, his voice steady and majestic. He swept his deep eyes over the crowd and finally landed on Xue Yao.
"Xueyao, since you are the disciple of Daoist Master Yun Yi, we will naturally give you a fair chance to prove yourself."
"But," the sect leader changed the subject, "this matter is of great importance. The black fox has infiltrated our sect as a demon, and we must find out its origins and whether it has other accomplices.
Xueyao, you need to describe in detail how you brought the black fox back from the Forest of All Beasts, as well as all your subsequent contacts and observations. You must not conceal anything."
Xue Yao was extremely reluctant when she heard this, but she knew that she had no choice but to be honest with him in order to protect herself.
She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound steady. "Yes, Sect Master. I was collecting herbs in the Forest of All Beasts that day and came across an injured black fox. I felt sorry for it so I brought it back to treat it. It has always been docile and obedient, and I have never noticed anything abnormal about it until today..."
When she said this, Xueyao's eyes turned slightly red and her voice was a little choked up.
"I really didn't know it was a monster. If I had known, I would never have let it stay around, let alone give it the chance to cause disaster."
Taoist Yun Yi felt heartbroken upon seeing this. He sighed softly, took a step forward, and protected Xue Yao behind him.
"Master, Xueyao has a kind heart, there must be something fishy about this matter. I will personally investigate this matter and will give the sect a satisfactory explanation."
The clan leader nodded, "Okay, then you will be responsible for finding out the truth. But in the meantime, Xueyao needs to be temporarily confined to her house until the truth is revealed."
"Yes, Sect Master."
Daoist Yun Yi agreed, then looked at Xue Yao with a complicated look in his eyes, "Xue'er, go back and rest first, I will take care of everything."
Xue Yao looked at Taoist Yun Yi and nodded heavily, then was taken away from the hall by the people arranged by Taoist Yun Yi.
Inside the hall, the atmosphere remained solemn as the clan leader and the elders continued to discuss countermeasures.
