Chapter 60

Kakakaka!

In the midst of the mountain forest, demonic energy surged, and demons of all sizes surrounded one of the mountain peaks, gradually closing in from all sides.

In addition, there were many flying demons in the sky, circling continuously, their eyes scanning the ground.

At the highest point, a massive figure loomed in the air, blocking the moonlight and casting a huge shadow over the forest.

The Silver Moon Demon King's eyes gleamed like lightning, and a bloodthirsty smile played on his lips.

His gaze suddenly sharpened, and he let out a long howl, emitting a sinister laugh, "I've found you!"

Immediately, he flapped his wings and dived down rapidly!

His target was a withered tree, struck by lightning, which had died and become hollow inside.

The Six-Tailed Spirit Fox was hiding inside, curled up into a ball, its six tails tightly wrapped around itself like a fluffy white ball, trembling in fear.

It was both terrified and bewildered.

What's going on here?

Who did I offend?

Weak, pitiful, and helpless.

At that moment, a massive figure descended from the sky, accompanied by a sinister laugh, landing not far from it.

The Six-Tailed Spirit Fox's entire body trembled, and its fur stood on end.

"Really a Six-Tailed Spirit Fox!" The Silver Moon Demon King stared excitedly at the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox, his eyebrows suddenly arching!

No!

Not just six tails!

Between the six tails, a faint golden shadow had already appeared, a sign that the seventh tail was about to form!

How... How is this possible?!

This little fox is almost about to form its seventh tail?

A great opportunity!

It must have obtained a tremendous opportunity!

Its sister was like this, and so is it!

The Silver Moon Demon King's face showed a crazed expression, trembling with excitement as if he had seen a treasure trove right in front of him.

What kind of opportunity could make a fox's bloodline continuously evolve, forming a Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox in a short time?

I have roamed the demon world for thousands of years and have never heard of such a heaven-defying opportunity!

Terrifying, unbelievable!

He took a step towards the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox.

The numerous demons quickly surrounded, "Great King, the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox is just a piece of cake for you."

"Six-Tailed Spirit Fox, why don't you surrender?"

"Little fox, don't resist, or you'll suffer more!" the Silver Moon Demon King said coldly, a mocking smile on his lips.

With him personally taking action, the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox had no chance of escape!

A great opportunity, I'm coming!

At that moment, two beams of light shot rapidly from the distance, like rainbows piercing the sky and breaking through the night.

"Silver Moon Demon King, come over and accept your death!"

The domineering voice made all the demons slightly stunned, their faces showing disbelief.

Who dares to speak to the Silver Moon Demon King in such a tone? Do they want to die?

The Silver Moon Demon King's face darkened, his wings spread, and he flew into the air, his eyes filled with killing intent.

As a Demon King, he had accumulated authority for a thousand years, and what he valued most was his face, especially in front of his subordinates. Those who insulted him would be killed!

He saw that the newcomers were an old man and a young girl.

The girl was only at the Nascent Soul stage, while the old man's cultivation was hard to discern.

However, he was not the least bit afraid and said coldly, "Who are you two, daring to cause trouble in my territory?"

Yao Mengji looked at the Silver Moon Demon King, his long robe fluttering, exuding a sage-like aura, "I am Yao Mengji from the Linxian Dao Palace!"

Master Mengji?!

All the demons immediately widened their eyes in shock, causing a commotion.

The Linxian Dao Palace was a well-known name in the cultivation world, respected by both cultivators and demons alike.

And Yao Mengji was the palace master of the Linxian Dao Palace, an immortal-like existence who had been in seclusion for years. He actually came out of seclusion?

The Silver Moon Demon King's face darkened. What's wrong with this old immortal?

He was already resentful when the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox was taken away by the Linxian Dao Palace. For the sake of peace, he did not cause trouble. Now, they had come to his doorstep. This was a challenge to the Silver Moon Demon King.

Do you really think I'm easy to provoke?

The Silver Moon Demon King's face was grim, and he said coldly, "Master Mengji, we have always kept to our own territories. What do you mean by this?"

"You haven't offended me, but you have offended someone you shouldn't. I am just acting on behalf of a higher being," Yao Mengji said calmly.

Acting on behalf of someone else?

Who could make Master Mengji act on their behalf? Their face must be huge.

The Silver Moon Demon King frowned, trying to think of who he could have offended so greatly, but he could not come up with anyone.

"Master Mengji, there must be some misunderstanding here."

"Ha ha, no misunderstanding. I came here to take your life and give an account to the higher being!" Yao Mengji laughed coldly, spreading his hands, and an ancient zither appeared before him.

The Silver Moon Demon King's face darkened, and he growled, "Are you trying to fight to the death with me?"

"Fight to the death? Just you?" Yao Mengji laughed disdainfully, playing the zither, and then struck it forcefully.

Buzz!

Ripples seemed to spread through the void, and the zither sound rippled like water waves.

Whoosh—

The Silver Moon Demon King let out a fierce howl, his wings spread wide, and he swung them at Yao Mengji!

Immediately, black demonic winds formed a tornado, surrounding Yao Mengji.

The zither sound and the demonic winds collided, each unable to overcome the other.

As for the other demons, they had already scattered in fear, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

The Six-Tailed Spirit Fox's small eyes blinked, and its six tails stealthily swayed in the air before it scampered into the dark forest on its four little legs.

The fight between the greats was too terrifying.

Seeing the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox run away, the Silver Moon Demon King was even more enraged. What was wrong with him lately? Everything was going wrong.

He roared in anger, "Yao Mengji, are you determined to be my enemy?!"

"Ha ha, being your enemy is not the issue. I just want to take your life!" Yao Mengji smiled, playing the zither even faster, the zither sound becoming incredibly urgent.

The black demonic winds immediately dissipated, and the zither sound enveloped the Silver Moon Demon King like a curse.

Crack!

The Silver Moon Demon King's clothes turned to powder.

His body began to swell, and black feathers grew at an alarming rate, quickly revealing his true form—a mountain hawk three times larger than an ordinary hawk.

His sharp beak gleamed with a terrifying cold light, and his eyes, sharp as blades, fixed on Yao Mengji, "This is your doing!"

He opened his mouth, and a golden core flew out, shimmering like a small golden sun in the darkness.

Black demonic winds rose again, forming a black hawk shadow in the air, which lunged at Yao Mengji.

Yao Mengji's face remained unchanged, his long robe fluttering in the wind, his white hair swaying, like a defiant old man playing a wild melody!

The zither sound surged, blocking the black hawk, and they were locked in a stalemate.
