King of Assassins
Chapter 1217 - 747: Graceful White Fox
A gigantic white Celestial Fox with a triangular head larger than Gao Xuan’s entire body, and nine towering fluffy tails, exuding an overwhelming sense of pressure.
The Celestial Fox did not wish to reveal her true form but was intimidated by the Great Leiyin True Words, unable to maintain her human shape any longer.
In her true form, she could fully unleash her abilities. Each of her tails could command a divine technique, with nine tails possessing nine divine techniques in total. Each tail could withstand one deadly blow.
On her territory, the Celestial Fox could better control the Earth Immortal Law to gather immense power.
A severed tail could quickly regenerate with the support of the Earth Immortal Law. In her own domain, the Celestial Fox was practically immortal. Her combat skills were average, but at home, she feared no enemy.
Relying on her immortality, she could wear down any formidable foe. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Facing Gao Xuan’s scolding, the Celestial Fox bared her teeth, her eyes full of cunning and ferocity.
Gao Xuan, however, laughed: "Serene white fox, nine tails majestic."
He sighed softly: "The nine tails are indeed majestic, but the white fox is not serene..."
This ancient pre-Qin poem specifically describes the white fox. "Serene" portrays a graceful and charming walk, while "majestic" refers to the plush tails being wide and long.
Gao Xuan lived too long, having read many idle books out of boredom. In this moment of good mood, he remembered this poem to mock the Celestial Fox.
Although the Celestial Fox didn’t fully grasp the poem’s meaning, she understood Gao Xuan was ridiculing her.
She flicked her nine long tails, releasing a fragrant aroma like a nine-color cloud descending.
Despite Gao Xuan’s sword intent protecting him and the Five Elements Celestial Net Divine Light shielding him, he still detected the rich fragrance.
The aroma was so potent it didn’t feel overwhelming, yet like a flame, it made the entire body tingle, the divine soul burning.
"Indeed, some skills..."
Even though Gao Xuan’s Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body with its Primordial Perfection was affected, the fragrance permeated, impacting both his physical body and divine soul.
Although it didn’t cause real harm, it made Gao Xuan realize his cultivation was less than perfect.
The Primordial Perfection of the Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body shouldn’t be penetrated by same-level power.
The fact that he was touched by the fox’s fragrance proved there were still flaws in the Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body.
Curiously, Gao Xuan asked: "What kind of divine technique is this?"
The Celestial Fox scrutinized Gao Xuan with some uncertainty, unable to discern whether he was captivated by her Celestial Fragrance Nine-Color Banner.
After pondering, she replied: "This is Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors, perceived as seen, seen as perceived. Arising from sense, moved by heart. Though rough, it directly targets the true heart and nature."
"Marvelous, marvelous, marvelous."
Though the Celestial Fox’s explanation was brief, Gao Xuan understood, grasping the profundity of Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors.
Seeing as perceived, perceiving as seen refers to perceiving the fragrance as seeing, and seeing as perceiving. Once sensing Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors, it establishes a comprehensive connection.
Arose from sense, moved by heart. The form of Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors varies from person to person. Each person’s perception varies, leading to different manifestations of Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors.
Personal judgments and thoughts, conversely, enhance the power of Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors.
In simpler terms, Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors resembles a book, a video.
For instance, a beautifully presented dish in words and images delivers varying information to readers. Those who’ve never tasted this dish can hardly imagine its flavor. Those who’ve tasted it can easily evoke associations.
Perception of Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors primarily depends on individual realm level. The lower the realm level, the easier it is to be confused by Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors, falling into the fox’s control.
Generally, any intelligent being can be intrigued by Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors, differing only in degree.
The variation of Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors also broadened Gao Xuan’s horizons. Such skills are truly magical, far superior to that of the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor.
Of course, if the Celestial Fox were to compete against the Heaven-Confusing Demon Emperor fairly, chances are seven out of ten she wouldn’t prevail.
The Celestial Fox’s disadvantage is obvious; although Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors is marvelous, it poses no great threat to strong opponents of the same level.
Gao Xuan was thrilled. These Demon Emperors each had their divine techniques. Even engaging with them in combat proved highly rewarding.
Gao Xuan adjusted the Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body, suppressing the agitation in both soul and body.
Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors lacks explosive power, relying only on its special strength to infiltrate soul and body, slowly wearing down the enemy.
With just the power of Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors, Gao Xuan could lie here for decades without perishing.
Gao Xuan said to the Celestial Fox: "Although Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors is marvelous, it cannot overpower the strong. Do you have other techniques? Use them quickly."
He smiled slightly and said: "If you don’t use them soon, you won’t have the chance."
The Celestial Fox felt annoyed and embarrassed by Gao Xuan’s continuous mockery, yet indeed she lacked many strong techniques.
Her divine abilities focused on Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors, and facing a formidable opponent like Gao Xuan proved challenging.
However, she retained the indestructible true form of the nine-tailed fox. Her true form was powerful and unafraid of injury, fearless in close-quarters combat.
The Celestial Fox let out a roar and fiercely lunged at Gao Xuan. As a Celestial Fox, her body naturally far surpassed the Human Race by a thousand times and more.
Concentrated Earth Immortal Law Celestial Fragrance Nine Colors, a small portion of its power also augmented her physical prowess.
After all, the Demon Race differed from the Human Race, placing great importance on physical strength. Moreover, the Celestial Fox lacked formidable battle divine techniques, requiring reinforcement of the body to adapt.
The Celestial Fox’s striking movement was direct and rough, with two massive claws closing in on Gao Xuan left and right.
Gao Xuan did not dodge; he wished to see what other abilities the Celestial Fox might possess.
His left hand pressed down, the palm force from the Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body shrouded all directions, perfectly round inside and out.
