Chapter 239: Chapter 208 Heavenly Net_1

Squawk!

Just as the white fox’s eyes focused again into a ray of blue light, a blue divine bird emerged from Xu Mu’s chest, opening its beak and emitting a piercing cry. An invisible wave of sound dispersed in all directions.

Under the influence of the sound wave, the blue light in the white fox’s eyes

flickered intensely before abruptly fading.

The white fox furrowed its brow, gingerly shaking its head, as though dizziness

had taken hold.

It worked!

Xu Mu felt a surge of joy in his heart.

Without having the luxury to think further, Xu Mu squeezed the finger jue. Two tattooed arms conjured behind him formed into fists and heavily pounded on the white fox.

Tier eight – Space Grasp Skill!

Bang bang!

The enormous body of the white fox was smashed into the rock mountain.

Roar!

Xu Mu’s actions seemed to have completely enraged the white fox.

It opened its mouth, revealing sharp canine teeth, and in an instant, it shattered the two magic arms into dust.

The blue light flickered again in its eyes.

Squawk!

Xu Mu promptly had his beast spirit unleash a sonic attack, interrupting the white fox’s divine abilities, leaving it momentarily stunned.

He immediately retrieved several talismans from his storage bag and threw them out.

These talismans did not burn but landed on the white fox’s body. They emitted a golden light and formed into golden chains that interlinked with each other, thoroughly locking the white fox in place.

Tier six – Lock Gold Talisman!

Roar!

The white fox was enraged, and a layer of blue brilliance emerged around it.

Crack, crack!

Under the glow of the blue light, the golden chains quickly crystallized and shattered under the white fox’s struggle.

Before the white fox could make its next move, Xu Mu threw out two more

talismans.

One transformed into a blue water dragon that entwined the white fox. The other transformed into a white cold mist that froze the water dragon and the white fox into a block of ice.

Tier seven – Binding Dragon Talisman!

Tier seven – Icebound Talisman!

These talismans were the only high-tier ones that Xu Mu possessed, meant

specifically to control opponents.

But the white fox was extraordinarily strong. It emitted a blue light, and just as the two talismans took effect, it started showing signs of breaking free.

Xu Mu dared not pause for even a moment and took out dozens of array flags, throwing them into the air.

The array flags scattered in all directions, instantaneously forming a formation. Then Xu Mu drew out a compass and injected an enormous amount of spiritual power into it.

The compass radiated a red light, resonating with the surrounding array flags.

It suddenly emitted a bright light, forming a red net that was cast toward the white fox.

At this moment, the white fox had just broken free from the two talismans’ seal and had yet to launch another attack when it was caught squarely by the net. The array flags took root in the ground, firmly suppressing the white fox!

Roar!

The white fox struggled desperately, and the magical light on the red net shimmered intensely but remained unyielding in its suppressive hold.

“This is a tier seven formation, not even a late-stage Golden Pill can easily break free!”

Xu Mu triumphantly thought to himself.

After investing so many Luck Values into learning formations over the years, it would be unbelievable if he didn’t have some powerful trump cards.

The Heavens Net Array was his masterpiece.

Unfortunately, what he had laid now was a mini-formation, limited in power. If he had enough materials to set up a Super Array, even a Nascent Soul Stage practitioner could be bound for a while.

Before Xu Mu could revel in his success for long, the whole mountain began shaking as if it were trembling.

Several blue crystal columns suddenly surged from the ground, instantly wrecking his Heavens Net Array to pieces.

“Damn it! That’s not fair!”

Xu Mu was on the verge of spitting blood.

It was obvious that this was not the white fox’s own power because under the array’s pressure, it couldn’t possibly cast any skills.

But his words mattered not at this moment.

The white fox, having broken free from the array, abandoned the crystal rays

and lunged directly at him.

Although Xu Mu’s Body Refinement had also reached the Golden Pill stage, he dared not engage in close combat with the opponent.

Squawk!

The beast soul released a cry, plunging the white fox into a state of dizziness, allowing Xu Mu an opportunity to evade the attack.

The few remaining tier seven talismans in his hand were all thrown out.

After the battle, the white fox didn’t lose a single hair, while Xu Mu had pretty

much played all his cards.

“What on earth is this creature?”

Xu Mu’s face turned ashen.

Theoretically, even a late-stage Golden Pill faced with so many of his attacks wouldn’t be able to come out unscathed.

But the defensive power of this white fox in front of him was terrifyingly formidable.

What was even more unbelievable was that after such a long fight, his spiritual power was nearing depletion, yet the opponent was still going strong, seemingly without any loss at all.

Note, his spiritual reserve was ten times that of an ordinary early-stage Golden Pill.

“The beast spirit’s power is almost depleted too. I can’t keep this up!

His Lifebound Beast Spirit had been limited by his martial method and stopped advancing after reaching the Blue Soul stage. Now, after several beast cries, it was nearing its limit. He feared it would collapse if the fight continued.

In this situation, he had no choice but to abandon the beast soul to restrain the opponent, giving him a chance to escape.

As for the divine skill “Devour the Heavens,” the white fox was too fast for him to gather enough energy to release it.

He was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do, so he prepared to act. Just as the white fox was preparing to attack him, it suddenly stopped and turned to run back.

Xu Mu was a bit stunned.

What’s this about? Did its mom call it home for dinner?

Before Xu Mu could make sense of it, the anxious voice of the puppet cat reached his ears.

“You fool! Stop it now!”

This damned cat is definitely up to something behind my back.

Even though he really wanted to let the white fox go and spite the other party, he reluctantly had to intervene because his daughter was still in that woman’s hands.

He drew the sparse spiritual power left and released a series of thunders, constantly hindering the progress of the white fox.

just as the white fox was about to reach the cave entrance, it suddenly stopped, standing still without moving, unflinching from Xu Mu’s attack.

“Hmm?”

Xu Mu stopped attacking somewhat surprised, and cautiously approached.

On reaching the white fox, he found that its erstwhile azure eyes had turned grayish-white, it has lost all its vitality, and the aura on its body had disappeared completely.

It was as if its soul was suddenly extracted, leaving behind an empty shell.

Xu Mu reached out to touch it, but the white fox showed no reaction

whatsoever.

“This thing couldn’t be…”

“A puppet.”

The puppet cat leisurely emerged from the cave where the white fox used to reside.

So that’s it!

Now that he knew it was a puppet, all the previously puzzling things became crystal clear.

Why didn’t those insects attack it?

Why its energy was still abundant after such a long fight?

Why was it so sturdy?

Also, how could it release divine skills from its eyes?

“Senior, what were you doing just now?”

“I obviously went into the mountain to cut off its energy supply! As for this puppet, as long as it doesn’t leave this mountain, it has a constant source of energy. If we don’t shut off the energy supply from the formation, there’s no chance we can defeat it!” the puppet cat proudly proclaimed.

“Then you already knew this, why didn’t you tell me?” Xu Mu said with a grim face.

“What could you have done even if I told you? You still had to fight it!

“If you had told me, at least I would have been prepared!”

“You can’t blame me for this, I only learned it after I went in.” the puppet cat said helplessly.

“Anyway, I have lost so much. Senior, you have to compensate me a bit, right?”

Xu Mu showed the magic artifacts that were already wasted.

Not only the magic artifacts, but also the talismans and the formation tools, one could say the losses were heavy.

“You’ve been beating around the bush, just to gain some advantages. But I don’t have anything to give you.” the puppet cat sneered.

“It’s okay, just giving me this white fox is enough.”

Xu Mu pointed to the white fox with the fish fins and said.

The strength of this white fox puppet was undoubtedly strong. If he could obtain it, not only would he recover all his losses, but his power would also increase significantly.

Seeing that Xu Mu wanted the white fox puppet, the puppet cat couldn’t help but laugh.

“If you want it, just take it! But let me remind you, this white fox puppet is so strong mainly because this mountain can provide it with endless energy. Once it leaves this mountain, its strength will greatly decrease. Besides, its control method is different from ordinary puppets, it’s uncertain whether you can use it.”

“Won’t I have Senior with me?” Xu Mu chuckled.

“What do you mean?” the puppet cat asked with confusion.

“Others might not know its control method, but Senior certainly does.”

The puppet cat was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Xu Mu with some surprise.

“I didn’t expect you to be so smart.”

The puppet cat hesitated for a moment, then spat out a jade slip from its mouth.

“Since you want it, I’ll give it to you! But if you fail in the end, don’t blame me!” “No complaints! No complaints! Thank you, Senior!

Xu Mu took the jade slip eagerly to inspect it, but after just a glance, his expression turned quite ugly.

The puppet techniques recorded in the jade slip were erratic and differed greatly from the puppet techniques he was familiar with. They were like two completely different systems.

“Stop looking! With your aptitude, you won’t be able to master it in a few decades! Those bugs may come back at any time. If you don’t want to die, we should leave now!”

The puppet cat urged impatiently.

Xu Mu reluctantly put away the jade slip, and then put the entire white fox puppet into his storage bag.

It was fortunate that he brought enough storage bags, otherwise it would not fit.

One man and one cat, turned into escape light and continued to move forward according to the map recorded in the jade slip.
