Chen Miao had come across the term "Fox Immortal's Favor" in those two men's memories.
After a Spirit Medium had worshipped a Fox Immortal for long enough, they would receive the Fox Immortal's Favor.
A Spirit Medium with the Fox Immortal's Favor would receive blessings of power from the Fox Immortal. These innate abilities differed from mystic arts-they were more like supernatural abilities!
They were similar to the acquired talents granted to practitioners of yin cultivation after they reached Grandmaster level.
However, the Fox Immortal's Favor could grant more than one kind of divine blessing!
The first supernatural ability: transformation.
This was the fox form those two Spirit Mediums of the Fox Immortal had taken earlier.
Without accompanying mystic arts, this transformation was much like Chen Miao's Diamond Water-Fire Ape.
But combined with the Fox Immortal Cult's mystic arts to refine the Fox Form, it could make the false indistinguishable from the real.
When Chen Miao caught those two men, he hadn't sensed anything false about their forms. Even after one of them switched into another fox, the original corpse remained.
That was the effect of combining mystic arts with the Fox Immortal's Favor.
Unlike the enhancements provided by the Diamond Water-Fire Ape, transforming into the Fox Form greatly increased speed. In particular, running through the mountains became as easy as crossing level ground!
Conversely, physical toughness became much weaker. Even those who practiced body refinement methods would lose some of their physical toughness after taking fox form.
Of course, if their bodies were exceptionally tough, they would still be stronger in fox form than an ordinary person undergoing the same transformation, even after being weakened.
The second supernatural ability: bewitchment!
Bewitchment was an innate supernatural ability exclusive to the Fox Immortal lineage.
