Chapter 835: Absolutely Gorgeous Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, Hu Jiuwei

The tomb towered like a mountain peak; from afar it looked like a fox lying down.

The huge fox tomb resembled a living fox.

It gives a special feeling; at a glance, you'll be stared at by that fox, then drawn in by the whole tomb, unable to shift your gaze or look elsewhere, naturally becoming… entranced, thus unable to return to yourself.

Chen Chuyang immediately noticed the problem with the tomb, his brows furrowed; after glancing a few times, he paid no heed, and Heishanyang's voice sounded in Chen Chuyang's mind, it solemnly warned: "Kid, keep your mind steady, don't be drawn in by the tomb before you."

This tomb is problematic; it can enthrall the mind, as if it were the Fox Clan's mind-enthrallment.

Hu Jiuwei's voice followed, icy with a hint of solemnity.

Please be careful; the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's tomb is very dangerous—if you stare too long, you'll be drawn in by the tomb and unable to free yourself.

Be sure not to stare at the center of the tomb.

Hu Jiuwei reminded Chen Chuyang again, not wanting him to fall for it, nor wanting him to think she'd done it on purpose; she had never entered the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's tomb herself, having only come to this place, at most standing here to view the tomb, and she dare not go past it now.

Hu Jiuwei told Chen Chuyang all of this, not wanting him to overthink.

"I'm not entirely sure what exactly is inside the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's tomb; I've never set foot in it, so regarding the specifics inside, I'm completely in the dark—at most I know that staring at the tomb will enthrall you."

"The closer you get, the higher the chance of being enthralled; once enthralled, trying to escape is no easy feat."

"This is a divine ability left by the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox that has long persisted and still can enthrall the mind; the Eight-eyed Demon King dares not enter precisely because he fears that very ability left by the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox."

"If we want to see the true corpse of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, we must go inside the tomb; there's a high chance it buries the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's corpse, but I'm not certain it truly exists."

"That's what our clan's records say; the details will only be known after we go in."

The Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox is of great importance—whether it's alive or truly dead, no one knows.

It's in an unguessable state; we need to go in and see its corpse to be certain.

But whether we can see its corpse is still hard to say.

Chen Chuyang nodded, opened his mind, and carefully observed the tomb before him.

This tomb is very dangerous, which likewise indicates that it hides good things inside.

Otherwise, there'd be no need to arrange so many means to protect this tomb.

"Little fox, has no one from your clan ever gone inside?" Heishanyang questioned suspiciously, staring at Hu Jiuwei.

Hu Jiuwei nodded: "Indeed, no one has; maybe someone has, but nothing was passed down except one thing—that the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's inheritance truly lies inside, yet no one can obtain it."

"Also, I'm not sure whether the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox has fallen; after so many years, I'd guess it's long dead."

Chen Chuyang, upon hearing that, continued to stare at the tomb before him, but could not go deeper inside.

This tomb can isolate everything, preventing you from seeping in.

The problem is serious.

To know the tomb's exact structure, you still need to go inside in order to thoroughly clear it.

To find the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's inheritance and corpse, you must go inside—perhaps that was also the original purpose of establishing this tomb.

"Kid, shall we go in?"

Heishanyang speculated: "My gut tells me this tomb is very problematic; there likely is danger inside, and even we cannot… completely avoid it."

"Going in will trap you in the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's snare, but if you don't go in, you'll know nothing."

"Kid, if you don't absolutely have to, you can plot slowly."

This time, it's very dangerous.

We can wait until they're fully prepared before entering, rather than rushing in.

Hu Jiuwei said: "I feel the same; the appearance of the Eight-eyed Demon King shows this place is dangerous."

"Some situations have already arisen that I cannot control, so."

Hu Jiuwei also does not approve of this; the Eight-eyed Demon King's appearance has disrupted her plans.

Since seeing the Eight-eyed Demon King, Hu Jiuwei feels the Fox Clan's cavern heaven is dangerous, and it's likely not just the Eight-eyed Demon King that exists.

If others exist as well, then…?

Moreover, within the Fox Clan, whether… it's the same as before, Hu Jiuwei also has no certainty.

She needs to thoroughly investigate the Fox Clan, ensure it's problem-free, then enter.

Chen Chuyang stared at the tomb before him and whispered: "We've come all this way—how could we not go in?"

"I know all the worries you have; if we don't go in, some people might be unhappy."

"As for those in hiding, they'd also want to go inside."

Chen Chuyang pointed at the tomb and slowly said: "Only by going inside can we… know who is scheming against us."

Heishanyang lowered his head in thought.

Hu Jiuwei stared into Chen Chuyang's eyes, glanced around, then nodded: "Since you say that, we have no choice but to go in once."

"Who exactly is scheming against us, and whether the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox has truly fallen—once we go in, everything will naturally become clear."

"Not bad." Chen Chuyang stepped forward; at this point, retreat is impossible.

Chen Chuyang also didn't want to come a second time, nor wanted to be… schemed against by others for nothing; he must find the person behind it, then… settle the score properly, lest they keep scheming.

The two and the goat walked forward, entering the tomb; the entrance was very obvious.

There were no arrangements, no formation, no traps.

After entering, it was obvious that the interior and exterior of the tomb differed greatly.

A chill yin made them feel creepy.

At times a whooshing sound came out, raising their hairs; Chen Chuyang naturally wasn't afraid and walked on.

Hu Jiuwei merely frowned, not… afraid, and followed Chen Chuyang's steps.

After walking a stretch, the scene before everyone changed; no longer dark and damp, but warm spring with blooming flowers, as if they'd entered another layer of space.

That was a separate space—a grassy meadow of warm spring and blooming flowers, filled with blossoms.

Fresh flowers covered the ground, with butterflies fluttering about.

And among these flowers, a tomb is hidden.

The small grave mound is conspicuous, surrounded by flowers; people arrive at the tomb's location, a tomb that doesn't even have a tombstone.

Chen Chuyang nods at Hu Jiuwei, who immediately starts acting, shaking the tomb with force; the coffin inside jumps up and slams heavily onto the ground, yet it does not break.

The transparent coffin allows one to see the scene inside.

Inside the coffin lies a woman, a peerless beauty.
