Was the Black Fox yielding?

No, it was trying to kill me!

The killing formation outside the tomb was compressing inwards frantically. Before long, it would crush the tomb, and everything inside, including me, would be reduced to dust.

The Black Fox wasn't wrong when it said I would perish together with the Corpse Demon.

On the surface, I ignored the Black Fox, but in reality, I was silently reciting the incantation.

Moments later, rumbling sounds erupted in the tomb passage. Something was rushing from the tomb passage towards the center of the tomb, and an intense killing intent surged into the tomb like a river bursting its banks.

At that moment, the killing formation beneath my feet trembled violently, and boundless killing intent erupted from under me.

The killing formation passed down by Guizhenzi, although small in scale, emphasized momentum. The ten-meter-square formation was like a lone swordsman, standing alone against a thousand troops, unwavering.

As soon as my killing intent rose, the Black Fox cried out again, "Stop provoking it! You've activated the outer killing formation. We'll all die! Release the formation, and I'll send you away. I'm not lying."

Amidst the Black Fox's screams, I carefully extracted my Yang soul, standing back-to-back with my body, using the killing formation as cover in the center of the tomb.

Simultaneously, the sound of orderly footsteps rapidly approached the tomb. It sounded as if a large army was advancing into the tomb. With each movement, the killing intent outside intensified, filling the entire tomb with a suffocating aura. The Black Fox cried out again, "You're insane! Ghost soldiers don't distinguish between friend and foe. If…"

Before the Black Fox could finish, the entrance of the tomb passage was sealed off by soldiers in armor, wielding spears.

They weren't ghost soldiers, but celestial soldiers condensed by a great master using supreme Taoist methods. There must be a formation to summon celestial soldiers at the first turn of the tomb passage.

With the arrival of the celestial soldiers, the Black Fox could no longer hold back. Its voice suddenly vanished into the air as I watched a black shadow shoot towards the Corpse Demon's bedroom.

It was the Black Fox!

In an instant, my Yang soul broke free from the killing formation and flew in the opposite direction of the Black Fox.

I had already roughly determined the two most likely locations where the Corpse Demon might be hiding its true form: the small building's bedroom and the large tree near the small building.

If the Black Fox hadn't appeared, I would have gambled on that fifty percent chance.

When the Black Fox emerged, my first reaction was to rush to the place it hadn't gone.

After my Yang soul completely left the killing formation, the uncontrolled formation instantly extinguished. The celestial soldiers, who had been preparing to attack, slowly lowered their weapons.

Although my Yang soul was as fast as lightning, the Black Fox's figure could chase lightning and pursue stars. The moment I stepped out of the killing formation, the Black Fox's shadow was already attacking from my side.

I couldn't bother with entanglement; I abruptly turned in front of the Black Fox and charged towards the tree trunk.

When I was in the mountains, Gui Er told me, "When a dog chases you, if you suddenly circle around, the dog has to stop and see where you are, because its eyes aren't in the front."

I always felt he was lying to me and never dared to try it. Now, being chased by a fox, I had no choice but to try it.

After my sudden turn, not only did the Black Fox not stop, but it ran ahead of me.

Forced by circumstances, I lunged at the Black Fox, embracing it and crashing into the tree trunk. I was a soul, but the Black Fox appeared before me in the form of a demon. After being hit against the tree by me, it screamed and instinctively covered its head. I took the opportunity to rush towards the tree trunk.

The moment my Yang soul crashed into the tree, I felt like my whole body was surrounded by ice. Besides the piercing cold, the only thing I could feel was my stiff joints.

The Undead Jiangshi had told me: When your Yang soul enters a Jiangshi, the first thing you have to do is control it. The Jiangshi's Qi and blood have long congealed, leaving only a surge of resentment.

If you want to control a Jiangshi, you have to let your Yang soul control the resentment. In other words, you have to merge yourself with the Jiangshi.

The next time you can achieve Yang soul projection, it will probably be three years later.

Don't occupy a Jiangshi unless absolutely necessary. It's no different from suicide.

Before I could control the Corpse Demon's body, I heard the sound of claws scratching at the tree trunk, "Return my master's body!"

As the Black Fox frantically clawed at the tree trunk, I opened my eyes, raised my hand, grabbed the Black Fox's neck, and threw it away.

The Black Fox rolled a few times on the ground and got up again, "Don't touch my master's body!"

The only parts of me that could move were my hands. Seeing the Black Fox rushing over, I raised my hand and slapped it away.

The Black Fox was knocked away again and again, and each time it got up from the ground and charged towards the tree trunk until it was beaten to the point where it couldn't get up, then it cried out, "Please, don't touch my master's body. She's a good person."

I didn't have time to consider anything, nor did I have time to sympathize with anything. Controlling the corpse, I immediately contacted the Corpse Demon, Gu Bei.

My low growl had just saved Ye Yang and the others' lives.

Controlling the Corpse Demon's body, I threatened in a deep voice, "Come back immediately, or your body will be mine."
