The old fox's ostensible purpose in coming here was to save the old tortoise, but his real intention was to kill Xu Long.
She hadn't forgotten the power of the Heavenly Eye; it was a terrifying force capable of instantly killing her.
However, for Xu Long, who was only at the Golden Core Stage, to unleash such a terrifying attack would inevitably come at a terrible price.
The old fox, not daring to confront the old tortoise head-on, pushed the old tortoise to the front.
She had actually guessed long ago that Xu Long was going to make a move against the old tortoise, because Nascent Soul demon kings in this world had families with many offspring or subordinates, but the old tortoise was all alone.
Nascent Soul Stage expert has plenty of Golden Core cultivators under his command, but the Innate cultivators are all cannon fodder. No matter how many talisman soldiers Xu Long creates, it won't make a difference.
In this way, he had no choice but to deal with the old tortoise.
" Meiniang, you've finally arrived. You truly are the woman I've longed for for over a thousand years..."
Sensing the old fox's presence, the old tortoise finally poked its head out.
"Goodness, is every vixen named Meiniang?"
Xu Long was speechless after hearing what the old tortoise said.
"Enough talk! I'll hold this bird back; you go kill that human!"
The old fox Meiniang, snorted and said.
"Understood! Watch me, Dragon Turtle Spits White Stream!"
With a beautiful woman by your side, you naturally have to work extra hard.
The old tortoise roared, and a white jet of water shot towards Xu Long.
The old tortoise's attack was fast and fierce, Xu Long dared not take it head-on. He immediately used Instant Transmission to narrowly avoid the attack.
Good heavens!
Feeling the immense pressure in the space, Xu Long was still shaken.
The distance was less than fifty meters, yet it caused him minor damage to his meridians. If it had been more than a thousand meters, it probably wouldn't have been a matter of injury, but rather death.
His internal injuries healed instantly, Xu Long drew his World-Breaking Blade, slashing fiercely at the turtle's head.
laugh!
The sword light tore through the heavens and earth, its sharp aura enveloping all directions.
No cultivator of the same level could withstand this sword strike.
However, the old tortoise had a higher cultivation level than Xu Long and was also the most defensive tortoise spirit, so it didn't care about Xu Long's attack at all.
bite!
The sound was crisp and clear, like the clanging of metal.
Xu Long and the old tortoise's expressions both changed!
Xu Long never expected the old tortoise's shell to be so hard, and the old tortoise never expected the Power of Extreme Yang, Absolute Yin to be so strong!
No matter how much a fairy cultivates, it is still of the Yin attribute, and its Five Elements are also Yin Five Elements, making it completely countered by the Yang attribute. When fighting against cultivators of the Yang attribute, Innate is inherently at a disadvantage.
The old fox wanted to use Xu Long's blood to change his physique, and that's why.
A terrifying force invaded the old tortoise's body, frantically destroying his internal organs and causing him unbearable pain.
Having landed a successful blow, Xu Long did not press his advantage.
Because he had neither the ability to win nor the strength to pursue.
" Vermilion Bird!"
Xu Long roared, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
The latter understood and also flapped its wings and took flight.
"What happened? Why did they run away?"
Hu Meiniang and the old tortoise were both startled, but they quickly realized what was going on.
"He's going to self-destruct the formation!"
A sense of terror welled up inside them, causing them to tremble uncontrollably.
The Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation was originally called the Eight Gates Demon-Locking Formation, which was created by the Pure Yang Dao Sect to deal with demons.
They used the power of the opposite Bagua (Eight Trigrams) to seal it off, and then slowly wore the demons inside out to death.
Once inside, unless one's cultivation level exceeds that of the array setter by a whole major level, anyone who touches it will die.
After all, in that era, both the Pure Yang Physique and the Supreme Yang Physique were within the Pure Yang Dao Sect. The Power of Extreme Yang, Absolute Yin had not yet emerged, so it was impossible for a demon like the Old Fox to reverse one's constitution.
Later, countless masters upgraded and improved upon the Eight Gates Demon-Locking Formation, gradually transforming it into the current Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation.
It can be used to refine demons and also to enhance the power of cultivators with Yang attributes.
Fighting against humans who cultivate Yang attributes inside the Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation is practically suicidal.
The Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation is extremely powerful, a formidable enemy of demons. However, its most terrifying aspect is not its enhancement of Yang attributes or its refinement of Yin attributes, but its self-destruction.
They fought with everything, to perish together.
The self-destruction of the Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation was a world-destroying force. Back when the Pure Yang Dao Sect awed the world, countless powerful Nascent Soul demon kings perished under this attack.
"No!"
The old fox was filled with despair; she hadn't expected Xu Long to be so ruthless.
The Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation has immense self-destruction power. Back then, when the Pure Yang Dao Sect used this move, they would retreat far away or simply hide in a safe place.
But what about Xu Long?
He hadn't even left the range of the Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation yet, and he was already about to self-destruct!
The old fox couldn't figure it out, but there was no time for her to figure it out now.
Rumble!
The Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation self-destructed, its power engulfing the entire Hangzhou City.
Heat waves and impacts are fatal to those at the Golden Core Stage; even a mere touch will result in certain death.
At the very center of the explosion, even Nascent Soul Demon King couldn't withstand it.
The space shifted, and Xu Long and Vermilion Bird appeared.
puff!
Xu Long spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.
Although Vermilion Bird on his shoulder didn't cough up blood, his injuries were no less severe than Xu Long's.
Its crimson feathers had lost their luster, and the whole bird looked listless.
The human and the bird respectively wield the Power of Extreme Yang, Absolute Yin and Power of Supreme Yang, and possess a strong resistance to yang attributes.
The force of the Eight Gates Yang-Locking Formation's self-destruction was weakened by at least 60% when it hit him.
However, even this power, less than half of what it was, almost killed Xu Long and Vermilion Bird.

There was only one notification sound: that old fox named Meiniang was still alive.
Xu Long pondered for less than a second before making his choice: to leave this world immediately.
[Quest complete! Teleporting to the Reincarnation Temple!]
"Aaaaaah! Die! Die!"
A heart-wrenching roar erupted, six tails lashed wildly, and a terrifying killing intent enveloped the entire Hangzhou City.
Watching helplessly as her old friend was blown to death while protecting her, and suffering severe injuries herself, her former wisdom vanished, leaving only madness and rage.
Unfortunately, Xu Long has already escaped, and it's impossible to find any trace of Xu Long in this world.
Perhaps one day when I integrate into the Great Wilderness, I will be able to find Xu Long, but by then, it's uncertain who will kill whom.
Given Xu Long's rate of improvement, the old fox probably won't even have the chance to run away the next time they meet.
