Chapter 511: Save Me! (Third update, 10k today)

~12 min read 2,292 words

!!!

Could he have sacrificed himself for me?

After thinking of this, even a woman with as firm a character as Li Qiushui could not help but let a sobbing tone enter her voice:

"Yidao, why are you so... hmm?"

The sobbing tone lasted only for an instant.

Before the tears at the corners of Li Qiushui's eyes could fall, she realized something was wrong.

Wait!

This hand is warm.

No, what is in front of me is not a severed hand.

It is that only one of Ren Yidao's hands remains in the space!

"..."

"Uh..."

Li Qiushui had originally wanted to question him, but looking at that smooth, shiny bald head, she was stunned for a moment.

Clothes, he naturally still had some; anyway, there was no one else here, so there wasn't much difference between wearing them and not.

Li Qiushui did not choose to act tough and stay; she took the token and flew upward alone, casually summoning a discarded sword to step on, rushing into the sky as if riding a flying sword.

"Ren! Yidao!!!"

This is Ren Yidao!

Although his hair is gone, these brows and eyes, this playful expression...

Are you trying to scare me to death!?

"Hmm? Hmm? Hmm? What's wrong?" At this moment, a head poked back in, blinking as it looked at Li Qiushui with tears at the corners of her eyes, "You're awake?"

That's right, he is stark naked.

As a Demon God's Child, there are ultimately limits to the human form.

Although the number of tails is not quite right, both eight tails and six tails are plenty; one cannot notice the difference without checking carefully.

Even his hair had been shattered completely, and those messy clothes had long since turned to powder.

No!

"Alright, since she has already left, I can completely let go now."

Even if an outsider saw him, they would only think he was merging himself with the Dao God and would not think much of it.

Might as well just not wear anything!

His status in the Divine Path Sect really gave Ren Yidao a lot of convenience, and the Heavenly Fox Dao God reduced even more trouble.

The reason why Ren Yidao did not shrink his whole body back into the space from start to finish just now is also very simple.

Good, what a round head!

Where did this monk come from...

Huhu, I am not going to be a human anymore!

"Your hair? This..." Li Qiushui stammered, unconsciously raising her hand to press onto the top of Ren Yidao's head, rubbing it.

"The token will expire in a while; the third day is ending immediately."

The three dormant Wen Dao Sword Intents were now gradually waking up, noticing this monster that had snuck into this place.

Crack, crack, crack...

"... They're gone."

He is currently in a state of streaking.

Ren Yidao shook his body, quickly finished tempering his left hand, and then looked up at the various colored Sword Intents in the sky, his eyes brightening slightly.

After a moment of silence, Li Qiushui began to tremble all over, gripped his remaining palm tightly, and growled:

The dignified Azure Dragon streaker!

Although they had already been honest with each other and had battled for a whole day, he was still worried about stimulating Li Qiushui, so after thinking about it, he decided not to let her see something so stimulating for now.

It's already this time?

In Li Qiushui's perception, only a short time had passed; she did not expect that two days had passed in a flash.

"Hmm?" Li Qiushui blinked, her hand still not stopping the motion of rubbing the bald head.

"You go up and wait for me first; I still need a little bit more to finish tempering completely." Ren Yidao's whole body was basically tempered, and now only his left hand remained.

She reluctantly moved her hand away from the bald head, then cupped Ren Yidao's cheeks and kissed him lightly on the lips.

The phantom of the Dao God flashed by; Ren Yidao made a motion of merging with it, then changed directly back to his original form, simultaneously retracting the Dao God and letting his demon body take the Dao God's place on the spot.

So smooth!

"Oh, this? It's fine, it's very simple to grow back, it's not a big deal; our body refining is like this."

The moment he changed back into the Demon God, the atmosphere at the bottom of the valley changed.

If asked, it's the Divine Path Sect's special technique; I can't explain it to you in detail.

"... Well, although I wasn't a human to begin with."

Ren Yidao laughed nonchalantly, not feeling that there was any problem at all, and laughed: "It's good that you woke up, otherwise I would have had to wake you up early in a while anyway."

"Hmm."

"Alright, then take care." Li Qiushui understood that Ren Yidao had already adapted to this place and would not be hurt even without the token.

And this was Ren Yidao's goal.

"Haha, come on! You all are the last ones."

On the final day, Ren Yidao directly incorporated all eleven special Wuxiang Sword Intents into his body!

At this moment at the bottom of the valley, only these three Wen Dao Sword Intents remained that could still pose a threat to him.

Ren Yidao understood that his human form absolutely could not withstand them; only his demon form had a sliver of a chance.

He did not wait for the three Wen Dao Sword Intents to rush over together, but instead took the initiative to charge, slamming head-on into one of them.

Ssh! Ssh! Ssh!

In an instant, a large amount of fresh blood sprayed from the Six-Tailed White Fox's body, staining its snow-white fur red.

This sword intent appeared calm, but it was actually insidious, erupting from within the body to tear the enemy apart from the inside out.

But Ren Yidao did not panic; one of the six tails behind him immediately lashed against his own body.

Slap!

The previously split wounds contracted, the fresh blood flowed back, and they quickly scabbed over and healed.

Second tail, Silk Touch, increases vitality.

In his true form, he did not need to pluck it out and could use it directly on himself.

And the effect was doubled!

After hard-tanking one sword intent, Ren Yidao did not immediately touch the second one, but instead rapidly shrank his figure, transforming into the size of an ordinary fox, and scurried about.

Every time the wounds on his body split open, he would lash them with his tail, quickly digesting the sword intent within his body.

After chasing like this for a while, Ren Yidao finally managed to barely suppress the first sword intent and seal it within his body, waiting to slowly digest it.

"If I adjust it well and choose to release it at a necessary moment, it could even serve as a hidden arrow."

Probably no one could imagine that a Void Refinement cultivator would hide a Wen Dao Sword Intent inside their body, right?

Ren Yidao was greedy.

He did not feel that this was his limit.

"How is one enough? Shouldn't I get all three?"

Here I come!

Ren Yidao observed for a moment, paused his footsteps, and made contact with a slightly weaker sword intent.

"Cough!"

This time, more than half of the fur on the white fox's body was shaved off directly, exposing the flesh and skin underneath, instantly leaving it mangled.

Although this sword intent was brutal, Ren Yidao, having the experience of the first time, managed to hold on despite his miserable appearance.

He forcibly suppressed it and digested it separately from the first sword intent.

Sword intent is a dead thing; if the person who asked Dao and left the sword intent had attacked, it would be impossible for Ren Yidao to survive now, but these were just some residual sword intents... they couldn't kill him.

"Good, digest a little more, and then I can... Cough!!!"

But just as he prepared to kite them again, the first sword intent, which had already calmed down, suddenly erupted again, catching him off guard.

The white fox stumbled, nearly face-planting into the ground!

But even though he managed to adjust and stand steady, it was already too late; the third sword intent had already caught up.

"Not good!"

Ren Yidao wanted to dodge, his entire demon body rapidly enlarging; he no longer relied on his size advantage to dodge, but attempted to flee at full speed.

But it was too late, the third sword intent had arrived.

Clang—

Accompanied by a resonant sword chime, the white fox's demon body was about to be cut in half at the waist!

At this life-or-death juncture, Ren Yidao finally stopped acting tough and called out for help:

"Yutuo, save me!"

【Who is Yutuo?】

Ren Huan, who had noticed Ren Yidao's miserable state, muttered irritably: 【Isn't that the name you gave me yourself? Honestly...】

Then, without throwing a tantrum, she directly guided the third and most brutal sword intent into Ren Yidao's Consciousness Sea.

She stared at that somewhat chaotic sword intent, glanced at it, and said indifferently:

【Quiet.】

Clang!

That sword intent had been somewhat angry, but upon hearing that whisper, it quickly quieted down, and within a moment, it obediently fell into a deep slumber, posing no further threat.

【Hmph! A broken sword intent, daring to oppose me, not even thinking about who I am... Tsk, who am I, anyway?】

That was a question.

Ren Huan pondered with some effort for a while longer, then said indifferently to the little fox lying on the spot, panting and healing: 【Remember, you owe me one again.】

Ren Yidao lay with his four legs in the air, lazily responding:

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, thank you, Lord Yutuo!"

【Who exactly is Yutuo!?】 Ren Huan was furious, then simply ignored this annoying fellow.

After panting for a while, Ren Yidao finally recovered for the most part; he changed back into his human form and stretched with great effort.

"Ha... almost messed up."

Thinking of that last brutal sword intent that had been like a hot knife through butter, Ren Yidao shrank his neck in lingering fear.

If that sword intent hadn't been aimed straight at his head, he wouldn't have had to chicken out so quickly...

"I didn't think there would be such a brutal sword intent; I didn't expect it to be hidden so deep. Who on earth left it behind..."

All three Wen Dao Sword Intents were suppressed by him; the bottom of the valley no longer posed any threat to him at all.

These sword intents at the bottom of the valley were not the originals, but merely fragments left on various stone steles; by this time next year, they would return to their previous power, displaying themselves to the next visitor.

Ren Yidao walked to the stele where the third sword intent had been, circled it, and discovered a carved message and a name on the back of the stele.

"The favor I owed back then has now been repaid to you all; don't come bothering me again!"

The entire inscription was somewhat crooked, only the final signature was somewhat passable... Li Linba.

"Li Linba? Another person from the Li Family? Wait, why does it feel like I've heard this name somewhere before?"

Ren Yidao looked at that somewhat familiar name and pondered for a moment, then his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but curse under his breath:

"... Damn it!"

"Isn't this that guy? The founding ancestor of Beigan!" After realizing who this was, Ren Yidao hissed through his teeth, feeling like his whole being was not okay.

"You guy almost caused me to have no descendants! That was supposed to be for your great-great-great-great-great-great-great-granddaughters!"

Ren Yidao gestured an internationally recognized hand sign at the stele inscription, then sighed with some emotion: "Even the heroes who founded the nation back then couldn't withstand the passage of time and were trapped at the final step. This Heavenly Dao is indeed flawed, blocking quite a few people."

Although he had always said verbally that what the Butian Alliance was doing was very far away from him, as a prodigy who would very likely be trapped at that same step in the future, it was impossible to say he didn't care at all.

"Well, but when you reach the mountain, there will be a road; where there is a road, there will be a roadside stall; and if there's a roadside stall, I'll survive..."

Just take it one step at a time!

Letting a little bit of emotion dissipate with the wind, Ren Yidao returned to his usual state of mind and flew upward leisurely.

"Each generation of talents emerges from the land, each leading the way for hundreds of years."

His snow-white hair grew rapidly, soon returning to its previous length, dancing and swaying in the wind.

A brilliance flickered over his body, and he quickly donned a brand-new black Daoist robe.

Within a few breaths, he had transformed from a bald man running around naked into the beloved Daoist Ren.

"Yidao! You're okay..."

Upon seeing Ren Yidao, Li Qiushui, who had been somewhat anxious, let out a long breath. Just as she was about to continue speaking, she suddenly stared at Ren Yidao strangely, as if she had seen something odd.

"Hm? What is it? Is there something on my face?"

"Your hair?" Li Qiushui raised her hand to touch his hair and asked in a low voice: "Why is it white?"

Ren Yidao:!!!

Ah!

I was having too much fun just now.

I was careless!
