Chapter 4 Cliff cave in the secret
Fox Xiaxia and Fox Xiao Xian were originally down the mountain to practice. Still, how to practice the elders did not have strict provisions, is to travel to the earth for hundreds of years or to worship the master to learn the art or cloud travel to the mountains and rivers; how can they rely entirely on their enlightenment and opportunities? The Spirit Fox clan is very spontaneous and natural, with a heart big enough, ah!
Single Xiaohu originally lived in the forest, but now it is no longer safe. He escaped from the hunters once and may not be able to run a second time, as a lynx does not live in a group like a fox. He is independent and idle, but the experience of being captured this time made him decide to learn some fundamental skills, even if they are suitable for defense.
The three little goblins all the way north, Fox Xiaoxian carrying a small pocket, the girl always has to put some bits and pieces, Fox Xiaxia and Shan Xiaohu unanimously agreed to let Fox Xiaoxian custody of the giant bear mountain god's spirit beads. Fox Xiaoxian can often feel the spiritual dots emanate from the spiritual power, warm and long power from the Xu Xu originated through the bag, and fur can penetrate the fox Xiaoxian's bone marrow and lungs and let her have a different feeling but not uncomfortable, just strange. She did not overthink; after all, all the way north, the colder it gets, sometimes encountered snow and wind; this fox skin, although demanding, while carrying a small stove-like spirit bead is also quite good!
The little demons are terrified of the hunters they have encountered before, as if deep down, they have equated humans with murderers. Wherever there was a possibility of meeting humans, they must not go, so up the high mountains, rugged roads, and dangerous terrain, wherever it wasn't good to go. If there is no single small tiger, the two little vixens changing into a flying bird is also easy, but the little foxes are still righteous and can not ignore him ~ so they have to rely on legs and feet to go. Running 7 or 800 miles daily but only resting for one or two hours was too tiring for the three little beasts.
"Eh! I say," Shan Xiaohu asked while panting. "Why are we running like this? What's the hurry?"
"You don't know, our teacher taught that divine beasts are the same as mountain spirits and earth monsters. If the spirit bead is analyzed after death, the demon world is also called demonic dan; it can only be preserved for seventy-seven or forty-nine days, and after that, it will be disorganized and disappear. Since the giant bear asked us to take the spirit bead to the Kunlun Mountains to find the South Pole Immortal Weng, we must find him within forty-nine days; otherwise, the spirit bead will be broken." Fox Xiaxia returned.
"Then do you know where the Kunlun Mountains are?"
"I haven't been there, but the ancient texts record: four hundred miles southwest of Mount Hua, for the mound of Kunlun, also known as the Kunlun Ruins, is the real but under the emperor's capital, the god Luwu Division. That is to say, Kunlun Mountain is the sacred mountain of the immortal world. Such a famous mountain must not be difficult to find since the giant bear mountain god let us be to the north to go over ten mountains; I counted we have turned over six since the right's direction has been to go to the point we then inquire about."
The hairs on Shan Xiaohu's ears all listened straight, patted his big thick paws, arched his hand to Fox Xiaxia, and said, "Brother Fox has a wide range of knowledge; I am impressed, impressed, impressed!"
"That's right, my fourth brother is the most powerful in my family, back and forth to the ancient history exam first. Everyone loves him!" Fox Xiaoxian proudly puffed out her small chest.
Fox Xiaxia looked at Fox Xiao Xian with a bit of embarrassment. He didn't expect that his sister, whom he had bullied since childhood, was worshipping him. This made him feel quite ashamed of all the pranks he had made in the past, and he also felt a different kind of good towards this ugly sister of his. "Ahem, that's what, we've also traveled quite a bit today, let's take a break~ Nah! That old five ah, you go find some fruits, mushrooms, and whatnot; I'll go with Little Tiger to look around and find a suitable cave; let's rest earlier in the evening."
"Okay!" Fox Xiaoxian answered with enthusiasm.
Soon, they found a small cave on the cliff wall. The outside of the cave was covered by shrubs, just a natural barrier. Fox Xiaoxian brought fruits and mushrooms to the cave entrance, and the three little friends enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the setting sun while eating the fruits to fulfill their hunger. The sun was shining brightly at the moment, without a single cloud in the sky, and the golden light was also covered with colorful spots, which was breathtaking. Fox Xiao Xian yawned and stretched, ready to enter the cave to rest, but unexpectedly, his eyes glanced and saw some strange symbols on the inner wall and roof of the cave vaguely, as if they were paintings or human characters.
"Fourth brother, you guys come and see what this is?"
Fox Xiaxia and Shan Xiaohu heard the sound and came over to take a look, and there were quite a few symbols and paintings densely packed in the cave. Some were of a herd of cows or deer running, some were in the shape of several people in a circle as if they were dancing, and some were of a substantial tusked elephant with someone chasing after it with a spear. A few of them didn't recognize human writing; even before they followed Fu Zi to school, they were all quoting ancient texts from the Immortal Realm, which only cultivated Immortals and Demons could read. But most of these on the cliff wall were pictorial; even with some guessing, they could understand a rough idea.
"These are probably the records left behind during the obscurantist period of mankind, right?" Fox Xiaxia pondered.
"Fourth brother, I've always had a question I couldn't understand. You said that we in the Demon Realm also live a happy and carefree life, and the skills we specialize in are no worse than those of humans, and some of our abilities are even far better than theirs. Why do we have to keep cultivating in anticipation of taking human form? What great ability does this human have to be the head of all spirits?"
"According to me, I don't care at all if I take on human form or not; humans have a pitifully small lifespan, they don't run as fast as me, they don't jump as high as me, and they don't call out the wind and the rain, I don't like them at all." Shan Xiaohu finished a mushroom in one bite, muttering as he chewed.
"I don't understand, but I must admit that maybe humans have places we can't compare to, and many advanced spells and cultivation skills are to be done with human gestures. We only have claws ..." Fox Xiaxia squatted on the ground and Stretched out two beautiful white claws, looked and licked. "Maybe ah, we arrived in the Kunlun Mountains. Can you ask Nanji Xianweng; maybe he can know?"
The golden sun slowly set in the west, the quiet blue sky a Milky Way winding long here. The cave entrance to the north can not see the moon, but under innate perception, they know that tonight is the night of the full moon. There will always be changes whenever the moon is full, although I do not understand why. However, as a mountain demon Goblin, this is the time to absorb the essence of nature to cultivate the inner strength of a great time. The three little monsters sit in a group, close their eyes, and rest their minds, quietly feeling the aura of heaven and earth from the exhale and gasp between the swim in the body.
Fox Xiaoxian cultivated independently, silently reciting the cultivation incantations without any distractions. At this time, the Giant Bear Spirit Bead she was carrying on her back had also changed. After running for so many days, it was easy to catch the night of the full moon, and it also happened to be in a cave that gathered the spiritual qi of heaven and earth. The golden light of the Spirit Bead was even more victorious; the light was overflowing in all directions from the cracks of the pockets, and it even kept pulsing.
Fox Xiao Xian felt that her body was getting hotter and hotter around her. She thought her body would be different because she had broken through a particular node in her cultivation, but first, her back was getting hotter and hotter. Then every place in her body and every piece of fluffy hair was feeling hot and dry as if this fox's skin had to be stripped off to cool down a little bit, and when the heat was too much for her to bear, she hurriedly converged her mind to open her eyes. When she opened her eyes, Fox Xiaxia and Shan Xiaohu looked at her with wide-open eyes and mouths.
"What are you guys looking at me like that for? Is there something on my face?"
"No, it's not just on your face. It's something all over your body." Fox Natsu stuttered a little and stared at her with wide eyes.
"You, who are you? Brother Fox, who is she? What did you do to Fox Xiaoxian?" Shan Xiaohu looked at her in surprise, and the entire cave was illuminated as bright as day because of the golden light behind Fox Xiaoxian. And in the middle of the golden light sat a human three or 4-year-old girl, not a stitch on her body; her eyebrows were precise, a head of long black hair fell to her waist, and her two eyes were still the same as they were when she was a fox, not big but permeated with a spiritual aura as if she could draw people in. Although Fox Xiaxia and Shan Xiaohu had not seen many humans, this little girl should be considered very beautiful among humans. The girl was diagonally carrying a small cloth pocket, and a dazzling golden light was emitted from the bag.
The girl spoke again, "Fourth Brother, why are you looking at me like that? I am Little Fairy!"
After saying that, Fox Xiaoxian wanted to get up and walk to them, but she didn't realize that she was standing upright on her two hind legs, and she stumbled and fell just before taking half a step. She stretched out her hand and looked at it, then looked behind her; her tail was gone, the fur on her body was gone, and her two front paws turned into human hands. WTF!
"Help! How did I turn into a human!" Fox Xiaoxian shouted; even her voice turned into a human's; she couldn't even give out her fox's calling. Fox Xiaoxian was shocked and frightened at the moment; she was most afraid of humans, but she had turned into a human without noticing, so she fell to the ground and cried out. "Waaaah~"
Fox Xiaxia was surprised that his sister was not even 1000 years old before she suddenly transformed into a human form. What was even stranger was that after she turned into a human form, she couldn't speak the fox language anymore, but she could still understand each other's speech. But he is the same age as the fox Xiao Xian, not very old. He has never seen this battle, even if the previous elders inside a few cultivations deep into human form are only heard, not seen with their own eyes; he also has a moment to react.
Shan Xiaohu belonged to the stupid bold; he trembling over, sniffed Fox Xiaoxian, and licked her hair. Fox Xiaoxian only left so little hair; a thick paw patted Fox Xiaoxian's head, and he was silent for a few seconds. "Well, your smell is Fox Xiaoxian's; it's hard to believe you ate her when we weren't looking while we were practicing. You are a talent!"
"I, I'm not, I didn't~ wow~ ah~" Fox Xiaoxian cried even harder.
"Can you try again if you can transform into a fox? Or turn into anything you try." Fox Xiaoxia blurted out; he still wasn't sure if this strange fellow was his sister; how did she turn into a human? He couldn't believe it.
Fox Xiaoxian huffed and puffed while reciting the oral incantation in her mind. Suddenly, she changed back to her furry appearance, only that her fur color was a lot more beautiful than before, and the top of her fur was glowing with a faint golden light. Seeing that she had turned back into a fox, Fox Xiaoxian finally stopped crying. Grinning, she said, "Fourth Brother, Little Tiger Brother, look at me changing again. I was scared to death just now!"
"Uh, the one you turned back into wasn't a fox. It was a money leopard." Fox Xiaxia said as she held her forehead.
"So you like our feline family? Aren't you canine?"
...
"Then I'll try again!" Fox Xiaoxian tried her best to change, turning into a pigeon one moment, then a giant panda the next, and she was dead set on not being able to switch back to her original fox body. The most annoying thing was that whenever she wanted to turn into something, she had to turn into a human before turning into an animal form. "This, what to do? It's too bullying and crushing!
"Otherwise, forget it! You proved it was Old Five anyway. It's getting late. Maybe a good night's sleep will help?"
"I'm thirsty ..."
"Huh? What kind of water do you drink this late at night?"
"I just cried too much, and I'm thirsty ..."
On a moonlit night, the dew was hefty, and Fox Xiaoxian crookedly half-walked, half-crawled out of the cave, holding the leaves of the shrubs outside the tree hole and sucking in the dew. After a while, she felt as if her body wasn't so unbearably hot and dry, but she was dizzy with a heavy head.
"Ah-choo-choo," the fox fairy sneezed heavily. Finally, she changed back into her fox form.
The three little ones were still young, and such a bizarre event was incomprehensible to the three little goblins, who were only 300 years old combined. Tossing and turning until the middle of the night, they were sleepy and fell asleep in a group together. After Fox Xiaoxian fell asleep, she again turned into her human form, and when morning came, she inadvertently changed back.
That night, Fox Xiao Xian didn't rest well; the art of illusion was already draining her energy, not to mention suddenly changing from beast to human form and changing so many times that her entire body was exhausted to death. Fox Xiaxia and Shan Xiaohu woke up early to watch her wake up, with a concerned and probing look on their faces. Fox Xiao Xian opened her eyes in a daze and suddenly remembered something. She hurriedly got up, looked at her furry, messy little paws, and then at the big tail behind her. Luckily, they were all there. Could it be that last night was a dream? Master Mom, that was a nightmare; it was too scary!
"Old Five, do you remember what happened last night? How did you turn into a human last night? Do you remember how you changed?" Fox Xiaxia asked.
"That's right, do you know how scary it was yesterday? I thought that some guy had eaten you. To be able to commit murder and commit a crime under my Master Tiger's eyes is excellent enough! But I didn't realize that an excellent murderer was yourself. It scared me; the roof of this cave is too short; I knocked the back of my head." Shan Xiaohu rubbed his big head while saying very seriously.
"Uh ... so this isn't a dream. How did I turn into a human? I also don't know, ah! I was just like you guys, running my gong and cultivating to absorb the moonlight and natural spiritual qi, and then I felt it was getting hotter and hotter. My body felt so hot when I couldn't take the heat anymore. I opened my eyes and saw you all staring at me, and I realized that I've turned into a human being, and it's super scary. The fourth brother, I think there is something weird about this cave; let's hurry up and leave!"
"Hmm. Little Five, how do you feel physically right now?"
"It does feel especially tiring, but I don't want to stay here for a moment longer; I want to leave."
"Good then! Let's hurry up and leave!"
Fox Xiaoxian glanced back at this cliff cave and winced, not caring about her weak legs as she hurriedly climbed out. Just as she was about to climb out, she suddenly realized that she could read the paintings on the cliff wall. This thought passed quickly, and the three continued their journey northward.
