The morning fog has not yet dispersed, in the small courtyard of the mountain town.

Amidst the sound of reading aloud, one person and one fox looked at each other through the crack in the door.

Zhou Dao looked as usual, watching calmly.

As for the red-skinned fox, his whole body was trembling, and his eyes were filled with fear.

The most dangerous place is the safest place. She originally thought that by hiding in Ping'an Town, her aura would not be discovered.

However, this evil star finally found him.

Just when Zhou Dao was about to push the door open and go in, the red-skinned fox suddenly curled up, clasped its front paws together, and made its head pound like garlic, as if it was kneeling down to beg.

"Huh?" Zhou Dao raised his eyebrows.

Do you still want to live at this time?

That night, this demon fox showed no mercy when he was killing everyone in the Demon Control Division.

After cultivating to this level, you can at least have dozens of lives in your hands.

Although Zhou Dao is not a righteous person, he is not a soft-hearted person either.

Moreover, evil-level high-level monsters are extremely valuable. You don’t know what kind of rewards you can get by sacrificing the ancestor, so you can’t miss it.

call……

Suddenly, the red-skinned fox swiped its tail, and the sound of reading stopped abruptly.

The thin scholar swayed and then fell down.

"You want me to take action?" Zhou Dao walked into the yard and said calmly.

"I know I will die, so I just ask for your mercy and let me fulfill my last wish." The fox begged, his desperate eyes couldn't help but look at the scholar next to him, and a soft color emerged.

Zhou Dao frowned, without comment, walked to the stone table in the courtyard, looked at the fainted scholar, and sat down.

"Humans do not live with demons, and dragons do not live with snakes. This has been true since ancient times. Don't have any delusional thoughts."

As he spoke, a rumbling sound came from Zhou Dao's body, and the terrifying blood vibrated continuously, like spring thunder.

The red-skinned fox trembled suddenly, showing fear.

She was no match for Zhou Dao when she was in her prime, let alone now?

"Sir..." The fox knelt down and begged for mercy, with tears flowing from his eyes.

Zhou Dao's palm paused slightly and then fell down.

The terrifying blood energy pressed against the red-skinned fox like a river and sea. The latter closed his eyes tightly and slowly fell down with blood and tears, completely losing his life.

"Delusion!"

Zhou Dao shook his head, put the sword energy of the red-skinned fox corpse into the green pan treasure bag, then looked at the scholar again, and walked out of the yard.

…

That night, it was still in the small courtyard.

The scholar was sitting in the courtyard and reading to himself. Suddenly, he couldn't help feeling bored, his voice stopped suddenly, and he put down the book.

Dong dong dong...

At this moment, a gentle knock on the door sounded under the moonlit night.

The scholar was stunned for a moment, then stood up and opened the door. The fragrance was flowing, and the night breeze was blowing.

Outside the courtyard gate, a woman in red clothes stood tall, holding a red candle, looking at the scholar, smiling lightly, showing an indescribable charm.

"I came here after hearing the sound of the young master reciting. It's really presumptuous for me to bother you so much." The woman in red spoke softly with her beautiful eyes.

The scholar was stunned. They were separated by a door, their eyes facing each other, full of tenderness and tenderness.

The red sleeves add fragrance to the beautiful lady Xu, two people know each other at a glance!

In the attic in the distance, Zhou Dao was sitting on the roof, silently watching everything in the courtyard, and then shook his head.

"Delusion!"

There is a record in the "Monster Control Division Work Manual".

A fox transforms into a demon and suffers the pain of having its tail cut off. After death, it uses its soul to light a candle, which can support its shape in the flesh and appear in the human world. However, if this method is performed, it will suffer the pain of gouging out the heart and cracking the bones. It will suffer day and night. After ten days, the soul will fly away.

.

There once was a demon fox who practiced this forbidden law and got married to people.

"The fox marries the soul and lights the candle!" Zhou Dao murmured softly.

The fox demon is already dead, but it has delusions in its heart and its soul is still alive.

Her delusion was that the scholar would be rescued from the mountains, but that touch of tenderness was planted in her heart like a demon.

Zhou Dao gave her a blood energy to perform this forbidden method.

Even if I have to suffer the pain of heart-breaking and bone-breaking, and risk losing my soul, I have no regrets.

Zhou Dao couldn't understand why a fox demon had to suffer after death, just for these illusory ten days?

When the red candle burned out, she was about to lose her soul.

Even if she is with this scholar, what will be left behind?

When she is gone, the scholar will sooner or later forget this relationship.

Time has changed and nothing in this world lasts forever.

"There is love and infatuation in the world, and this hatred has nothing to do with the wind and the moon!" Zhou Dao murmured softly.

Love, hate, and resentment may be the innate instinct of all things. Some people live for obsession and will go crazy even after death.

Zhou Dao didn't know why he wanted to help the fox.

His cheap master once said that people should not live with demons, and dragons should not live with snakes.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't take action.

Perhaps, it's just because the scene before me overlaps with some memories and feelings from previous lives.

"A Chinese Ghost Story!?"

Zhou Dao shook his head.

The Tao seems ruthless but has feelings. Perhaps this is the true essence of cultivation.

"Stupid fox!" Zhou Dao waved his hand, stood up and left.

Under the full moon and above the dome, there is no trace of him.

In the distance, in the courtyard, laughter gradually began, and the talented men and beauties looked at each other, all in silence.

…

Back home, Zhou Dao took out the corpse of the demon fox from the Qingpan treasure bag.

Help the demon fox, but he does it as he pleases, and he still has to sacrifice when he should.

Evil-level high-level monsters are rare in Ping'an Town, so Zhou Dao will not waste them.

"Sacrifice!"

Zhou Dao flicked his finger, and a drop of blood seeped out from his fingers and fell on the corpse of the demon fox.

Although this demon fox has one tail broken off, it was grown through practice the day after tomorrow, and it is still considered a complete corpse.

Buzz…

The fox's body burned violently, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a puff of blue smoke rising upwards.

Raising your head three feet, you can vaguely see an altar, with a tablet standing upright, a secret talisman written on it, and a dragon and snake written in a pen, which is ancient and mysterious.

[Sacrifice the red-tailed demon fox and obtain the second level of the reward "Sage Mahamudra"]

A mechanical sound sounded in Zhou Dao's ears, and then, a thought fell from the sky and merged into Zhou Dao's mind.

"The second level of the Sage's Mahamudra?" Zhou Dao was stunned.

He has been practicing this [Inner Divine Art of War] for more than half a year. It turns out that it is not complete, it is just the first level.

"Only the first level ranks you at the eighth level?" Zhou Dao suddenly felt happy.

[Inner God's Art of War] is divided into nine levels according to its power. The ninth level is the weakest and the first level is the strongest.

Generally, when you first enter the Nine Transformations of the Refining Realm, you can practice the ninth level [Inner Divine Art of War].

For example, the "Full Moon Scimitar" practiced by Chen Qinggang belongs to the ninth grade.

The three [Inner Divine Art of War] obtained by Zhou Dao through sacrifice, the ninth grade of the 'Ice Fire Poison Dragon Spear', the 'Great Sword of Bliss' and the 'Sage's Mahamudra' all belong to the eighth grade.

Although Zhou Dao has practiced these three inner magic arts of war, he has put the most effort into "Sage Mahamudra". After all, he has been single for many years, so he has extremely fast hands and rich experience.

Now that he has obtained the second level of cultivation method, the level of "Sage Mahamudra" has been improved again.

"Seventh grade!!!"

Zhou Dao was delighted, as expected.
Chapter completed!
