"Chirp"
The Cyan-faced White Fox opened its mouth and swallowed the Cloud Mulberry Fruit, transforming into a cyan shadow, quickly circling the Cave Mansion before diving underground.
Fu Changsheng turned to Fu Changli and said:
"Fourth Sister, you and Molan pick the Cloud Blood Grass here, Qingru and I will go down to take a look."
With that said.
He slapped an Earth Escape Talisman onto himself.
A yellow glow surged around him, and he then subrged into the ground.
After descending a hundred zhang deep.
The Cyan-faced White Fox leading the way abruptly disappeared into a stone wall, and Fu Changsheng and his companion followed closely. After passing through the stone wall, a stone door ca into view, with faint array fluctuations emanating from it.
"Chirp"
The Cyan-faced White Fox called once towards the stone door, then extended its pinkish-white paw towards Fu Changsheng as if seeking credit.
Fu Changsheng flipped his right hand, tossing a Cloud Mulberry Fruit over.
The Cyan-faced White Fox caught it but didn’t eat it; instead, it stored it in the small Hundred Treasures Pouch at its chest. Compared to the Cyan Python, the Cyan-faced White Fox evidently had much better self-control.
Standing in front of the stone door.
After inspecting, Yu Qingru said:
"This is a Three Talents Mysterious Array, but it’s crudely set up, obviously mimicked from an Array Map."
Saying this.
Her right hand made a spell gesture, mana transforming into a Spirit Blade that flew towards the rune stone at the top of the array.
The rune stone, upon being attacked, imdiately began to shine brightly, and waves of energy surged towards Yu Qingru.
Yu Qingru remained composed, her figure flickering as she deftly dodged, her hand changing spells and drawing runes on the ground. These runes resonated with the earth’s power below, disrupting the array’s rhythm.
Then, several array flags flew out and landed on the four array hubs, spiritual power injected into them. With a slight trembling, the Three Talents Mysterious Array’s light gradually dimd, finally collapsing with a boom.
The array was broken!
A wave of decay and rot assaulted their faces.
A dim cave appeared before their eyes.
Through the faint phosphorescence flickering on the cave walls, they could see, deep in the stone cave, a Red-tailed Old Wolf lying there.
Fu Changsheng was startled.
This Red-tailed Wolf still had a back-up plan, and imdiately, with a thought, the Three-Transformation Treasure Lotus Lamp floated around him.
However.
The old wolf lay coiled, motionless like a stone statue.
Fu Changsheng hesitated slightly:
"Qingru, I’m going in to take a look, you guard outside."
"Hmm, be careful."
The stone cave was gloomy and eerie.
Yu Qingru was also a bit concerned.
Fu Changsheng walked forward a dozen zhang, then with a wave of his sleeve, a few Moonstones shot out, embedding into the stone wall. The entire stone cave was instantly illuminated as bright as day, revealing the old wolf deep in the cave.
Its once fiery bright fur was now dull and gloomy.
As if life had been drained from it by ti and illness.
Its body was frail and emaciated, its ribs distinctly visible, as though a gust of wind could topple it over.
In its embrace, tightly curled up, was a cub.
The cub’s eyes weren’t fully opened yet, shivering.
In front of the old wolf.
There were a few crooked lines of text written:
"Human, I want you to form a contract with my cub and promise to grant it freedom in a hundred years. If you refuse, I would rather self-destruct my Inner Pill and destroy all treasures in the cave."
At the sa ti.
The seemingly stone-carved old wolf slowly lifted its head, issuing a deep growl from its throat. Though weak, the sound still carried an unmistakable majesty, its gaze tinged with a hint of sorrow, like a final request for guardianship.
There were so many Red-tailed Wolf cubs in the cave.
Yet this old wolf specifically chose this one, clearly this cub was extraordinary.
Fu Changsheng glanced over.
To see the cub’s brow faintly flashing an ancient rune mark:
"Could it have awakened an Ancient Bloodline?"
The Red-tailed Wolf tribe seed to have a strong yearning for freedom.
Judging by the actions of those semi-mature wolf cubs above, the old wolf’s words were absolutely not false.
A hundred years’ ti.
Even if you gave this cub freedom.
By then they’d be like family, he didn’t believe this cub would leave.
He imdiately said:
"Alright, I can agree to your request."
"Awoo~"
The old wolf let out a complex howl.
It slowly raised a paw, a weak light emanating from it, falling into the pre-arranged contract array within the Cave Mansion.
Buzz!
Once the array was activated.
Fu Changsheng, quite adept from prior experience, dropped a droplet of blood into it.
In an instant.
The array ford a contract rune between Fu Changsheng and the cub.
The rune shimred with a strange light, gently sinking into the foreheads of both Fu Changsheng and the cub.
"Awo~"
After completing all this.
The old wolf raised its head and opened its mouth in anger. Imdiately, rolling white light poured out from its body, continuously pouring into the cub’s body, causing the cub to tremble violently, as if it might explode from being unable to contain the power at any mont.
"Buzz!"
Just then.
The ancient mark on the cub’s brow flashed.
Then.
The energy pouring into the cub’s body was like a flock of birds returning to their nest, all absorbed by the ancient mark.
As ti passed.
The old wolf’s flesh and skin turned into specks, absorbed by that marking.
The ancient mark flickered once.
Then disappeared.
As if none of this had ever happened:
"This little wolf cub....."
Fu Changsheng felt the current scene sowhat mirrored his second son Brother Rong’s ability to devour demon beasts.
At the sa ti.
The young cub opened its eyes for the first ti.
Fu Changsheng squatted down, holding it in his arms.
The little wolf cub nuzzled against his shoulder with a look of dependence, Fu Changsheng petted its head, channeled the Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower, and placed it in the second layer of the tower.
