Chapter 255: Fox

The aura that appeared out of nowhere was quite strong and scared both of the two beasts that were awake. They were both exhausted and out of power. Thus, there was no way they could fight even the same opponents they had just before.

However, the aura this new beast was giving off was not something they could fight off against even in their best form.

"Is that…" Blue asked with fear in his eyes.

"That should be above the 6th realm, maybe even the 7th," Night said with a trace of fear in his eyes.

Aegis was unconscious on the ground, so he couldn't feel what was happening right now.

Suddenly, a white light flashed down at the bottom of the mountain as something approached them very fast. Within a few seconds, it appeared in front of all 3 of them.

The newcomer was a white fox with silver fur and 3 tails on it. It slowly whirled its tails as it looked at the three of them.

"You enter my domain while I slumber, try to steal the Qi which is rightfully mine, but then refuse to die at the hands of my subordinates; I have never seen such disrespect before. For that transgression, you shall all die now," the fox said and suddenly swiped its paws towards the three of them.

A massive white slash flew towards the three of them. Both Blue and Night immeidately did what they could to stop the attack, but still got hit by it.

They coughed up blood as even the most defensive of them all, Aegis, got hurt. The three of them weren't strong enough black even a single one of the fox's attacks.

'This is troublesome,' Night thought.

The Fox ran up to them once more, but then suddenly, the aura behind them changed. Ning was on his last lap; once he was done with this segment of the breakthrough, he would be at the Nascent Soul realm. This was also the moment where someone would forever be a False Nascent soul realm if they were a normal human.

All 3 of the beasts were worried for Ning even more now, but they couldn't stop their bleeding, exhausted bodies from not responding the way they wanted it to.

The fox sent out an attack once more towards the 3 beasts. They immediately got distressed when they saw that. Night tried to catch the unconscious Aegis before trying to run away, but his wings were hurting and bleeding, and so he couldn't move.

Suddenly, all 3 of them disappeared all at once. All 3 of the beasts were gone from the battlefield and the Fox didn't even see them move.

"What is this? Where are those beasts?" the fox got a little flustered. He couldn't even see them with its divine sense that lasted for nearly 10 kilometers.

It quietly searched around for a few minutes but seeing no sign, it decided to quickly kill the human in front of it right now.

"Finally, I can eat your core and advance with my cultivation base," the fox said.

"Don't be so sure about that," Ning's voice appeared out of nowhere. He didn't speak, but his body vibrated to produce the sound.

"I see, so what happened earlier with the sparrow wasn't a one-time thing. You can in fact talk… in some weird fashion," the fox said with a snarl.

"You should go away if you don't want to die," Ning said. "Although, I would like you to stay and fight so that I can kill you myself for hurting my beasts."

"Hahaha! Do you think a measly human who hasn't even entered the Nascent Soul realm can hurt me? The only reason I am even trying to kill you right now is that you have a lot of Qi with you while you are breaking through."

"If not for that, I could have just waited before I killed you," the fox said as it twirled its 3 tails behind it. "After all, your sweet aura of breakthrough woke me up from my slumber."

Ning didn't show any emotions on his face, but a sound still appeared from him. "Let me give you something sweeter then."

His aura suddenly exploded while the Qi around him gathered to what felt like a void. The core inside of him cracked at the same time and all the outer flakes disappeared.

From inside, a small floating, ethereal infant appeared in his sea of Qi. It slowly settled to the center where it stayed in a lotus formation.

"No!" the fox shouted seeing him advance to Nascent Soul realm in just a split second. It jumped towards him to attack him before he finished finalizing his breakthrough.

However, before it could attack him, a barrier appeared in front of him that stopped it.

The fox slammed the barrier, but it couldn't make it move whatsoever. "What!" it shouted. It attacked with its paws once more, but nothing happened again.

"How are you using your techniques while breaking through?" the fox shouted. It was starting to get very flustered now. Not only could it not understand how the human was using techniques while breaking through, but also how a person who only broke into the nascent soul realm could possibly deploy a barrier of such strength.

"I told you, I'm not a normal human being," Ning's sound appeared. Ning was done gathering Qi, and the Qi inside him start to leak away. Once it was all gone, he would officially be in the Nascent Soul realm.

The Fox saw this and got worried. "No! I won't let you," it said and shouted out loud.

"AWOOOO"

Flames lit up at the end of its 3 tails and all of it flew at the barrier.

Ning realized that stopping the fire would only make him lose a lot of energy, so he took away the barrier. At the same time, the fire flew directly at him and hit him in the face.

The fox saw that and got happy.

"Finally, I did it."
