wàn lǐ fú ！
万里符！
Wanli Talisman!
zuò wèi huà xíng hòu qī de dà yāo zú ， xuě hú wáng zì rán shì yī yǎn rèn chū le cǐ wù 。
做为化形后期的大妖族，雪狐王自然是一眼认出了此物。
As a late-stage transformed spirit, Snow Fox King naturally recognized this item at once.
yě jiù nán guài tā biǎo qíng rú cǐ jīng cǎi 。 xū zhī cǐ bǎo de gōng yòng suī rán yǔ chuán yīn fú chà bu duō ， rán ér ruò lùn zhēn guì chéng dù ， què shì bù kě tóng rì ér yǔ de 。
也就难怪他表情如此精彩。须知此宝的功用虽然与传音符差不多，然而若论珍贵程度，却是不可同日而语的。
That was no wonder his expression was so vivid. After all, while the function of this treasure was similar to that of a sound transmission talisman, its value and rarity were incomparable.
měi yī kuài dōu jià zhí shàng wàn jīng shí ， ér qiě liàn zhì jí wéi bù jǐ ， biàn shì nà xiē dà zōng mén suǒ shǐ yòng de mì zhì chuán yīn fú yě yuǎn yuǎn bù jí 。
每一块都价值上万晶石，而且炼制极为不己，便是那些大宗门所使用的秘制传音符也远远不及。
Each piece was worth tens of thousands of crystal stones, and it was extremely difficult to refine. Even the secret sound transmission talismans used by major sects fell far short in comparison.
shèn zhì yǒu chuán yán shuō ， cǐ bǎo gēn běn jiù shì líng jiè zhī wù ， néng gòu liàn zhì de yě zhǐ yǒu lí hé qī lǎo guài wù 。
甚至有传言说，此宝根本就是灵界之物，能够炼制的也只有离合期老怪物。
There were even rumors saying that this treasure was actually from the Spirit Realm, something only a senior monster could forge.
xuě hú wáng de liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī chóu chú ， yī zhāo shǒu ， nà yù fú jiù luò rù le zhǎng zhōng ， jiāng shén shí chén rù 。
雪狐王的脸上闪过一丝踌躇，一招手，那玉符就落入了掌中，将神识沉入。
A hint of hesitation flashed across Snow Fox King's face as he waved his hand and the jade talisman landed in his palm. He then sank his divine sense into it.
jǐn jǐn guò le bàn zhǎn chá de gōng fu ， xuě hú wáng tái qǐ tóu ， liǎn sè què biàn dé hū qīng hū bái ， shí fēn gǔ guài 。
仅仅过了半盏茶的功夫，雪狐王抬起头，脸色却变得忽青忽白，十分古怪。
Just half a cup of tea later, Snow Fox King lifted his head, his face turning from pale to flushed, looking rather strange.
yǐn yǐn de ， jìng rán yǎo yá qiè chǐ le qǐ lái ！
隐隐的，竟然咬牙切齿了起来！
He even began gritting his teeth!
zhōng yú ， tā tàn le kǒu qì ， shōu shǒu tíng zhǐ le gōng jī 。
终于，他叹了口气，收手停止了攻击。
Finally, with a sigh, he stopped the attack and withdrew his hand.
yuè xián fēng dé dào chuǎn qì zhī xī ， què biǎo qíng jīng yí ， mǎn liǎn jiè bèi zhī yì ， yǎn kàn duì fāng zài jiā yī bǎ jìn jiù néng miè shā zì jǐ ， tā wèi hé tū rán tíng zhǐ gōng jī ， zhè lǎo guài wù xīn zhōng zài dǎ shén me zhǔ yì ？
岳弦峰得到喘气之息，却表情惊疑，满脸戒备之意，眼看对方再加一把劲就能灭杀自己，他为何突然停止攻击，这老怪物心中在打什么主意？
Yue Xianfeng got a brief respite but looked bewildered and wary. He could see that if the opponent exerted just a little more effort, he would be killed. Why did this old monster suddenly stop attacking?
“ yuè dào yǒu ， wǒ zài wèn yī jù ， nǐ men zhēn de méi yǒu lǔ zǒu běn wáng ài nǚ ？”
“岳道友，我再问一句，你们真的没有掳走本王爱女？”
"Senior Fellow Yue, I have one more question: Did you really not kidnap my beloved daughter?"
“ nǐ yào yuè mǒu shuō duō shǎo cì ， chǎng pài yǔ guì zú wú yuān wú chóu ， wǒ men gàn má yào zuò nà chī lì bù tǎo hǎo zhī shì ， yī qiè dōu zhǐ shì wù huì ér jǐ 。”
“你要岳某说多少次，敞派与贵族无冤无仇，我们干嘛要做那吃力不讨好之事，一切都只是误会而己。”
"How many times do I need to tell you? Your sect and ours are not at odds; why should we do something that is both difficult and unprofitable? Everything was just a misunderstanding."
“ hǎo ba ， běn wáng jiù zàn qiě xiāng xìn nǐ yī cì 。”
“好吧，本王就暂且相信你一次。”
"Well then, I will believe you for now."
yuè xián fēng zhòu le zhòu méi ， zì rán bú huì jiù cǐ fàng sōng jǐng tì ， dōu jǐ jīng dǎ dào zhè yī bù ， duì fāng tū rán zuò chū zhè zhǒng xuǎn bā zěn me kàn dōu yǒu xiē tài guǐ yì le 。
岳弦峰皱了皱眉，自然不会就此放松警惕，都己经打到这一步，对方突然做出这种选扒怎么看都有些太诡异了。
Yue Xianfeng frowned but did not relax his vigilance. They had already come this far, and the opponent's sudden move seemed too suspicious.
rán ér xuě hú wáng què méi yǒu duō shuō ， xiù páo yī fú ， shù yǐ qiān jì de huǒ guāng cóng xiù páo zhōng fēi lüè ér chū ， yuè xián fēng yí zhèng ， duì fāng jìng shǐ yòng le shén shí huà qiān de chuán yīn zhī fǎ ， yǐ tā de shén tōng ， xiǎng yào kuī tàn bìng fēi nàn shì ， xuě hú wáng mìng lìng yāo zú men tíng zhǐ gōng jī 。
然而雪狐王却没有多说，袖袍一拂，数以千计的火光从袖袍中飞掠而出，岳弦峰一怔，对方竟使用了神识化千的传音之法，以他的神通，想要窥探并非难事，雪狐王命令妖族们停止攻击。
However, Snow Fox King said nothing more. He waved his sleeves, and thousands of flames shot out. Yue Xianfeng was taken aback; the other party used the divine sense transformation technique to transmit sound. With his abilities, it would not be difficult for him to probe. The old monster ordered the spirits to stop attacking.
zhè lǎo guài wù dào bù xiàng zài gǎo guǐ jì …… suī rán xīn zhōng yí huò ， dàn rú cǐ hǎo de jī huì yuè xián fēng zì rán bú huì cuò guò ， lüè yī chóu chú ， yě yòng mì shù mìng lìng mén rén dì zǐ men tíng shǒu 。
这老怪物倒不像在搞诡计……虽然心中疑惑，但如此好的机会岳弦峰自然不会错过，略一踌躇，也用秘术命令门人弟子们停手。
This old monster did not seem to be playing tricks… Despite his doubts, Yue Xianfeng could not miss such a good opportunity and hesitated before using secret techniques to order his disciples to cease their attacks as well.
kōng qì zhōng yī jiù mí màn zhe yī gǔ nóng nóng de xuè xīng wèi dào ， dàn dǎ shā yǔ bào zhà de shēng yīn què jiàn jiàn píng xī xià qù le 。
空气中依旧弥漫着一股浓浓的血腥味道，但打杀与爆炸的声音却渐渐平息下去了。
The air still lingered with a thick scent of blood, but the sounds of battle and explosions gradually subsided.
“ yuè dào yǒu ， guì pài nǎi xuán fèng xiān zi dí chuán ， gé xià shēn wèi dà zhǎng lǎo ， duì yú bǎi wàn nián qián de nà chǎng hào jié ， liǎo jiě duō shǎo ？。” xuě hú wáng méi tóu yī tiāo ， tū rán dàn dàn de kāi kǒu dào 。
“岳道友，贵派乃玄凤仙子嫡传，阁下身为大长老，对于百万年前的那场浩劫，了解多少？。”雪狐王眉头一挑，突然淡淡的开口道。
"Senior Fellow Yue, your sect is the direct disciple of Fairy Xuanfeng. As the Great Elder, how much do you know about the great calamity that occurred a million years ago?" Snow Fox King raised his eyebrows and spoke in a calm voice.
“ bǎi wàn nián qián de hào jié ？” yuè xián fēng wén yán yí zhèng ， dī tóu xiàn rù le sī suǒ ， guò le bàn xiǎng cái nà nà de kāi kǒu le ：“ dào yǒu shì shuō nà xiē yāo mó ？”
“百万年前的浩劫？”岳弦峰闻言一怔，低头陷入了思索，过了半响才呐呐的开口了：“道友是说那些妖魔？”
"A million years ago's great calamity?" Yue Xianfeng was taken aback and lowered his head to think for a moment before hesitantly saying, "Are you referring to those demons and monsters?"
“ bù cuò ， kàn lái gé xià guǒ rán shì zhī dào de 。” xuě hú wáng liǎn shàng lù chū mǎn yì zhī sè 。
“不错，看来阁下果然是知道的。”雪狐王脸上露出满意之色。
"Correct. It seems that you do indeed know about it," Snow Fox King's face showed satisfaction.
“ kě tā men bú shì bèi nǐ men liǎng zú de qián bèi lián shǒu miè shā le me ？”
“可他们不是被你们两族的前辈联手灭杀了么？”
"But didn't your two clans' elders jointly exterminate them?"
“ zěn me ， guì pài de diǎn jí shì zhè yàng jì zǎi de ？” léi hú wáng méi tou yí zhòu ， yǒu xiē chī jīng de kāi kǒu 。
“怎么，贵派的典籍是这样记载的？”雷狐王眉头一皱，有些吃惊的开口。
"Why, is our sect's records like that?" Thunder Fox King frowned in surprise.
“ yě bù néng zhè me shuō ， āi ， suàn le ， bù mán dào yǒu ， běn pài de cáng jīng gé céng zài shí yú wàn nián qián bèi huǐ guò ， hěn duō zhòng yào de diǎn jí dōu liú shī le ， suǒ yǐ yǔ yāo mó nà yī zhàn qíng kuàng rú hé ， yuè mǒu suī shì dà zhǎng lǎo ， liǎo jiě dé què yě bìng bù qīng chǔ ， hěn kuài qíng kuàng dōu shì zì jǐ tuī cè 。” yuè xián fēng tàn le kǒu qì ， rú cǐ zhè bān de shuō 。
“也不能这么说，唉，算了，不瞒道友，本派的藏经阁曾在十余万年前被毁过，很多重要的典籍都流失了，所以与妖魔那一战情况如何，岳某虽是大长老，了解得却也并不清楚，很快情况都是自己推测。”岳弦峰叹了口气，如此这般的说。
"It can't be said so easily; sigh, forget it. I will not hide from you. Ourscripture repository was destroyed over a hundred thousand years ago, and many important texts were lost. Therefore, the situation of that battle with demons and monsters is unclear to me as well, even though I am the Great Elder. It's all speculation," Yue Xianfeng sighed and spoke in this manner.
“ yuán lái rú cǐ ， nà dào yǒu kàn kàn zhè kuài yù fú 。 yī qiè jiù zì rán qīng chǔ 。” xuě hú wáng shuō dào cǐ chù ， yī yáng shǒu ， yī dào bái guāng fēi lüè ér chū ， zhèng shì gāng gāng nà kuài wàn lǐ fú 。
“原来如此，那道友看看这块玉符。一切就自然清楚。”雪狐王说到此处，一扬手，一道白光飞掠而出，正是刚刚那块万里符。
"Then it turns out so. Please examine this Wanli Talisman; everything will become clear." Snow Fox King raised his hand, and a white light shot out—just like that Wanli Talisman.
yuè xián fēng lüè yī chóu chú ， yòng shén tōng huàn huà chū yī zhī dà shǒu 。 jiāng nà fú shè rù zhǎng zhōng ， zhǐ kàn le yī yǎn ， jiù liǎn sè dà biàn ：“ zhè shì tiān mù lǎo zǔ zhī wù ， tā lǎo rén jiā bú shì zǎo jǐ bù wèn shì shì le me ？”
岳弦峰略一踌躇，用神通幻化出一只大手。将那符摄入掌中，只看了一眼，就脸色大变：“这是天沐老祖之物，他老人家不是早己不问世事了么？”
Yue Xianfeng hesitated for a moment before using his divine sense to conjure a large hand to grasp the talisman. After just one glance, he changed color: "This is an artifact from Elder Tianmu; he hasn't been involved in worldly affairs for a long time."
tiān mù lǎo zǔ ， zhèng shì yāo líng dǎo shuò guǒ jǐn cún de lí hé qī yāo zú 。 yuè xián fēng suī shì rén lèi xiū xiān zhě ， duì qí yě bù gǎn yǒu bàn fēn shī lǐ de 。
天沐老祖，正是妖灵岛硕果仅存的离合期妖族。岳弦峰虽是人类修仙者，对其也不敢有半分失礼的。
Elder Tianmu was the only late-stage transformed spirit on Spirit Beast Island. Although Yue Xianfeng was human, he did not show any disrespect to him.
zhǐ shì nà lǎo guài wù zǎo jiù yǐn jū yú shēn shān dà zé ， bì guān kǔ xiū rú hé dù guò sān jiǔ xiǎo tiān jié de shén tōng ， bù guǎn rén zú hái shì yāo zú de shì fēi ， cóng bù huì guò wèn fēn háo de 。
只是那老怪物早就隐居于深山大泽，闭关苦修如何度过三九小天劫的神通，不管人族还是妖族的是非，从不会过问分毫的。
However, this old monster had long retired to seclusion in deep mountains and valleys, focusing on his cultivation to overcome the Three Nines Lesser Heavenly Tribulation. Regardless of human or monster affairs, he never intervened.
yuán lái shì tā chū le wàn lǐ fú ， guài bù dé xuě hú wáng yào tíng shǒu le 。
原来是他出了万里符，怪不得雪狐王要停手了。
It must be Elder Tianmu who issued the Wanli Talisman; no wonder Snow Fox King stopped attacking.
yuè xián fēng xīn zhōng jīng yí ， xiǎo xīn de jiāng shén shí chén rù jìn qù 。
岳弦峰心中惊疑，小心的将神识沉入进去。
Yue Xianfeng was surprised and carefully sank his divine sense into it.
piàn kè yǐ hòu ， tā tái qǐ tóu ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì bù néng zhì xìn zhī sè ：“ bù kě néng ， bǎi wàn nián qián ， wǒ rén lèi yǒu wǔ dà xiū yāo zhě ， nǐ men yāo zú yě zhèng chǔ yú dǐng shèng zhī zhōng ， guāng shì lí hé qī de qián bèi ， jiù yǒu sì rén zhī duō ， zhè jiǔ dà gāo rén lián shǒu ， jū rán méi néng wán quán miè shā yāo mó ， ér shì jiāng xī gěi fēng yìn le 。” hēng ， zhè yǒu shén me bù kě néng de 。 tiān mù lǎo zǔ zài yù fú zhōng bú shì shuō dé hěn qīng chǔ ， nà áo luó gǔ mó shén tōng qí tè ， hé kuàng dāng shí qíng kuàng tè shū ， suǒ yǐ jiǔ wèi qián bèi gāo rén cái xuǎn zé le lián shǒu fēng yìn zhè guài wù ， bù guò rú cǐ duō nián guò qù le ， jīng guò shí xīn fǔ hún zhèn de xiāo mó ， pāo de yuán shén yīng gāi zǎo jiù huī fēi yān miè le ， zhǐ shì bù zhī wèi hé ， rú sǎn jìng yǒu rén chuǎng rù le nà fēng yìn de kōng jiān zhī zhōng ， nán dào shì guì pài de xiū xiān zhě ？“ xuě hú wáng bù huái hào yì de kāi kǒu le 。” dào yǒu zhè huà bù tuǒ ， bǐ rén jǐ jīng shuō guò ， biàn shì wǒ ， yě bù zhī dào zhè xiē shàng gǔ yǐn mì ， hán tán yǔ zǐ zhú lín suī shì běn mén jìn dì ， dàn wǒ dōu bù zhī dào nà lǐ nǎi shì fēng yìn yāo mó kōng jiān de rù kǒu ， gèng bú yào shuō bié de xiū shì 。“ yuè xián fēng méi tóu yī tiāo ， rú cǐ zhè bān de shuō dào 。” nà huì shì shuí ne ， tiān mù lǎo zǔ yě shì yīn wèi dài yǒu gǎn yīng zhū ， fǒu zé bú huì zhī dào yǒu rén chuǎng rù le jìn jì de kōng jiān zhī zhōng ， jù tā suǒ shuō ， měi yí dài de lí hé qī yāo zú ， dōu fù yǒu kān shǒu cǐ dì de zhòng zé ， yuán běn nǐ men rén lèi xiū shì yě shì yī yàng de ， kě xī zhè me duō nián guò qù le ， chú le dāng nián de wǔ dà yāo xiū ， zài yě méi yǒu chū guò lí hé qī gāo shǒu 。“ xuě hú wáng de zuǐ jiǎo yǐn guān jī fěng ， dàn dàn de kāi kǒu 。
片刻以后，他抬起头，脸上满是不能置信之色：“不可能，百万年前，我人类有五大修妖者，你们妖族也正处于鼎盛之中，光是离合期的前辈，就有四人之多，这九大高人联手，居然没能完全灭杀妖魔，而是将牺给封印了。”哼，这有什么不可能的。天沐老祖在玉符中不是说得很清楚，那遨罗古魔神通奇特，何况当时情况特殊，所以九位前辈高人才选择了联手封印这怪物，不过如此多年过去了，经过蚀心腐魂阵的消磨，抛的元神应该早就灰飞烟灭了，只是不知为何，如伞竟有人闯入了那封印的空间之中，难道是贵派的修仙者？“雪狐王不怀好意的开口了。”道友这话不妥，鄙人己经说过，便是我，也不知道这些上古隐秘，寒谭与紫竹林虽是本门禁地，但我都不知道那里乃是封印妖魔空间的入口，更不要说别的修士。“岳弦峰眉头一挑，如此这般的说道。”那会是谁呢，天沐老祖也是因为带有感应珠，否则不会知道有人闯入了禁忌的空间之中，据他所说，每一代的离合期妖族，都负有看守此地的重责，原本你们人类修士也是一样的，可惜这么多年过去了，除了当年的五大妖修，再也没有出过离合期高手。“雪狐王的嘴角隐观讥讽，淡淡的开口。
After a moment, he raised his head with an expression of disbelief: "Impossible. A million years ago, humans had five great cultivators, while your spirits were at the height of their power. There were four late-stage transformed spirits among them. These nine high-ranking experts could not completely exterminate those demons and monsters; instead, they sealed them away."
yuè xián fēng liǎn shàng wēi lù gān gà zhī sè ， dàn hěn kuài jiù jí hǎo de yǎn shì guò qù le ：” guān zài shuō zhè xiē gàn shén me ， tiān mù lǎo zǔ jì rán yǒu fǎ zhǐ chuán lái ， cǐ shì yòu guān xì zhòng dà ， nǐ wǒ jiù yì qǐ qù kàn kàn ba ！“ yuè xián fēng zuǐ shàng zhè yàng shuō ， xīn zhōng què yě gǎn jué yī zhèn huāng miù ， zhōu gāng shuāng fāng hái zài shēng sǐ xiāng bó ， biǎn yǎn zhī jiān ， jū rán yòu yào lián shǒu ……” bù guò cǐ shì guò hòu ， dào yǒu kě bù néng jì xù zhǎo wǒ xuán fèng mén de má fán le 。“” nǐ fàng xīn ， běn wáng bú shì chū ěr fǎn ěr zhī tú 。“ xuě hú wáng pāi le pāi xiōng kǒu ， rú cǐ zhè bān de bǎo zhèng dào ， rán ér yǎn zhōng què shǎn guò yī lǚ jīng máng 。
岳弦峰脸上微露尴尬之色，但很快就极好的掩饰过去了：”观在说这些干什么，天沐老祖既然有法旨传来，此事又关系重大，你我就一起去看看吧！“岳弦峰嘴上这样说，心中却也感觉一阵荒谬，州刚双方还在生死相搏，贬眼之间，居然又要联手……”不过此事过后，道友可不能继续找我玄凤门的麻烦了。“”你放心，本王不是出尔反尔之徒。“雪狐王拍了拍胸口，如此这般的保证道，然而眼中却闪过一缕精芒。
Hmph, that's not impossible. Elder Tianmu clearly stated in the jade talisman that the ancient demon, Ao Luo, had unique abilities. Moreover, the situation was special at the time, so the nine senior experts chose to seal it together. However, after all these years, with the erosion of the Heart Corroding Array, their souls should have long been extinguished. Yet, for some reason, someone must have entered that sealed space. Could it be a cultivator from your sect?
yāo mó zhī shì gù rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， rán ér xiāng ér de ān wēi yě bú shì néng gòu děng xián guān zhī de ， yuàn kē jǐ jīng guān le tā mèi mèi de xiàn suǒ 。 wèi shén me guān zài què yì diǎn xiāo xī yě wú 。
妖魔之事固然非同小可，然而香儿的安危也不是能够等闲观之的，媛珂己经观了她妹妹的线索。为什么观在却一点消息也无。
Snow Fox King spoke with ill intent: "Your words are inappropriate; I have already said that even I don't know these ancient secrets. Even though the Cold Talk Grove and Purple Bamboo Forest are restricted areas of our sect, I do not know they are entrances to the sealed space for demons. How could other cultivators?"
rú guǒ nǚ ér shī zōng yǔ xuán fèng mén méi yǒu guān xì yě jiù bà le ， jiǎ ruò yǒu ， shì hòu fān liǎn yòu rú hé ， xiū xiān jiè cái bù guǎn shén me rén yì dào dé 。
如果女儿失踪与玄凤门没有关系也就罢了，假若有，事后翻脸又如何，修仙界才不管什么仁义道德。
Who would it be? Elder Tianmu only knew because he had an awareness bead; otherwise, he wouldn't have known someone entered that forbidden area. According to him, every generation's late-stage transformed spirit was responsible for guarding this place. Originally, human cultivators were the same. Unfortunately, after so many years, no other late-stage experts emerged except for those five demon cultivators.
xīn zhōng suī zhè yàng xiǎng zhe ， xuě hú wáng hái shì ràng yāo zú men zàn qiě hòu chè ， yī xiē biǎo miàn gōng fu kěn dìng dé zuò ， yuè xián fēng sōng le kǒu qì ， cǐ rén yě shì lǎo jiān jù huá yǐ jí ， dāng rán bú huì yīn wèi duì fāng de xiē xǔ shàn yì jiù fàng sōng jǐng tì ， qiāo qiāo yòng qiān lǐ chuán yīn zhī shù duì jǐ míng shī xiōng dì dīng zhǔ le jǐ jù ， rán hòu yǔ xuě hú wáng yì qǐ ， dùn guāng xiàng zǒng tán de hòu shān fēi qù 。
心中虽这样想着，雪狐王还是让妖族们暂且后撤，一些表面功夫肯定得做，岳弦峰松了口气，此人也是老奸巨猾以极，当然不会因为对方的些许善意就放松警惕，悄悄用千里传音之术对几名师兄弟叮嘱了几句，然后与雪狐王一起，遁光像总坛的后山飞去。
Snow Fox King's lips curled with a hint of mockery as he said: "Why talk about these things now? Since Elder Tianmu has issued an edict, and this matter is significant, let us go together to see!"
Although Yue Xianfeng spoke like this, his mind was filled with absurdity. They were still in the middle of mortal combat just now; suddenly, they had to cooperate…
"However, after this incident, you must not continue troubling my Xuanfeng Sect."
"Do not worry; I am no one who breaks promises," Snow Fox King patted his chest and assured him. However, a glint flashed in his eyes.
Although the matter of demons was serious, Shang'er's safety could not be taken lightly. Yuanke had already followed her sister's lead, but why did she still have no news?
If there was no connection between her disappearance and Xuanfeng Sect, it would be fine. But if there was, what difference would it make to turn against them after the fact? The cultivation world cared nothing for righteousness or morality.
Despite these thoughts, Snow Fox King ordered the spirits to temporarily withdraw. He had to do some surface work. Yue Xianfeng breathed a sigh of relief; this old fox was extremely cunning and would not relax his vigilance even with a little kindness from the other side. He quietly used the thousand-mile sound transmission technique to instruct several fellow disciples before flying towards the back mountain of the main hall with Snow Fox King.
Wanli Talisman!
As a late-stage transformed spirit, Snow Fox King naturally recognized this item at once.
That was no wonder his expression was so vivid. After all, while the function of this treasure was similar to that of a sound transmission talisman, its value and rarity were incomparable.
Each piece was worth tens of thousands of crystal stones, and it was extremely difficult to refine. Even the secret sound transmission talismans used by major sects fell far short in comparison.
There were even rumors saying that this treasure was actually from the Spirit Realm, something only a senior monster could forge.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Snow Fox King's face as he waved his hand and the jade talisman landed in his palm. He then sank his divine sense into it.
"Aaah!"
Just half a cup of tea later, Snow Fox King lifted his head, his face turning from pale to flushed, looking rather strange.
He even began gritting his teeth!
Finally, with a sigh, he stopped the attack and withdrew his hand.
Yue Xianfeng got a brief respite but looked bewildered and wary. He could see that if the opponent exerted just a little more effort, he would be killed. Why did this old monster suddenly stop attacking?
"Senior Fellow Yue, I have one more question: Did you really not kidnap my beloved daughter?"
"How many times do I need to tell you? Your sect and ours are not at odds; why should we do something that is both difficult and unprofitable? Everything was just a misunderstanding."
"Well then, I will believe you for now."
Yue Xianfeng frowned but did not relax his vigilance. They had already come this far, and the opponent's sudden move seemed too suspicious.
However, Snow Fox King said nothing more. He waved his sleeves, and thousands of flames shot out. Yue Xianfeng was taken aback; the other party used the divine sense transformation technique to transmit sound. With his abilities, it would not be difficult for him to probe.

"A million years ago's great calamity?" Yue Xianfeng was taken aback and lowered his head to think for a moment before hesitantly saying, "Are you referring to those demons and monsters?"
"Correct. It seems that you do indeed know about it," Snow Fox King's face showed satisfaction.
"But didn't your two clans' elders jointly exterminate them?"
"Why, is our sect's records like that?" Thunder Fox King frowned in surprise.
"It can't be said so easily; sigh, forget it. I will not hide from you. Ourscripture repository was destroyed over a hundred thousand years ago, and many important texts were lost.

Hmph, that's not impossible. Elder Tianmu clearly stated in the jade talisman that the ancient demon, Ao Luo, had unique abilities. Moreover, the situation was special at the time, so the nine senior experts chose to seal it together. However, after all these years, with the erosion of the Heart Corroding Array, their souls should have long been extinguished. Yet, for some reason, someone must have entered that sealed space. Could it be a cultivator from your sect?
Snow Fox King spoke with ill intent: "Your words are inappropriate; I have already said that even I don't know these ancient secrets. Even though the Cold Talk Grove and Purple Bamboo Forest are restricted areas of our sect, I do not know they are entrances to the sealed space for demons. How could other cultivators?"
Who would it be? Elder Tianmu only knew because he had an awareness bead; otherwise, he wouldn't have known someone entered that forbidden area. According to him, every generation's late-stage transformed spirit was responsible for guarding this place. Originally, human cultivators were the same. Unfortunately, after so many years, no other late-stage experts emerged except for those five demon cultivators.
Snow Fox King's lips curled with a hint of mockery as he said: "Why talk about these things now? Since Elder Tianmu has issued an edict, and this matter is significant, let us go together to see!"
Although Yue Xianfeng spoke like this, his mind was filled with absurdity. They were still in the middle of mortal combat just now; suddenly, they had to cooperate…
"However, after this incident, you must not continue troubling my Xuanfeng Sect."
"Do not worry; I am no one who breaks promises," Snow Fox King patted his chest and assured him. However, a glint flashed in his eyes.
Although the matter of demons was serious, Shang'er's safety could not be taken lightly. Yuanke had already followed her sister's lead, but why did she still have no news?
If there was no connection between her disappearance and Xuanfeng Sect, it would be fine. But if there was, what difference would it make to turn against them after the fact? The cultivation world cared nothing for righteousness or morality.
Despite these thoughts, Snow Fox King ordered the spirits to temporarily withdraw. He had to do some surface work. Yue Xianfeng breathed a sigh of relief; this old fox was extremely cunning and would not relax his vigilance even with a little kindness from the other side. He quietly used the thousand-mile sound transmission technique to instruct several fellow disciples before flying towards the back mountain of the main hall with Snow Fox King.
