Li Yao had already sent his eldest son to infiltrate the vicinity of Fox Ridge Mountain to gather information. He learned that the Ghost King Sect Master had sent his daughters, Biyao and Youji, to the Ten Thousand Bat Cave.
Therefore, the Wanfu Ancient Cave will definitely be bustling with activity this time.
This is a good opportunity for Zhang Xiaofan, Lin Jingyu, and others to go down the mountain for training.
So he sent Zhang Xiaofan, Lin Jingyu, and Wang Ke'er down the mountain to train together.
As for Xiao Yuchen and Wen Qingqing, they have already gone down the mountain to gain experience.
Therefore, Li Yao did not allow them to go this time.
Moreover, he also wanted to entrust the Wushuang Sect to the two of them for safekeeping.
Because he also needs to go down the mountain.
However, he did not go to the Ten Thousand Bats Cave, but to Xiaochi Town in Kongsang Mountain to obtain the Xuanhuo Mirror.
The Mysterious Fire Mirror is an unparalleled divine artifact in the world, the essence of all fires, originally a magical treasure of Linglong, a witch from the Southern Frontier.
Later, the Xuanhuo Mirror fell into the hands of the Fenxiang Valley, a major sect on the border of the Central Plains, and became the treasure of Fenxiang Valley.
However, three hundred years ago, the Celestial Fox Clan suddenly launched a full-scale attack on Incense Valley and stole this powerful ancient artifact.
However, the Celestial Fox clan suffered heavy casualties as a result, nearly becoming extinct.
The nine-tailed celestial fox, Xiaobai, was suppressed at the highest level of the forbidden area of Burning Incense Valley, the 'Mysterious Fire Altar,' where she suffered the torment of the 'Mysterious Fire Chains.'
His magical power was completely suppressed by the Xuanhuo Chain and the ancient and wondrous formation 'Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Formation' beneath the Xuanhuo Altar, causing him to suffer day and night.
Although Xiao Bai's son, the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox, escaped with the Xuanhuo Mirror.
However, in the previous battle, he was severely injured by Shangguan Ce's magic weapon 'Nine-Condensed Frost Thorn' from Fenxiang Valley.
For the past three hundred years, he has been on the run, constantly on the run. Coupled with the effects of methamphetamine on his heart, he has lost all his spiritual power and is in danger of dying.
Three months ago, the six-tailed spirit fox and the three-tailed demon fox hid in the Black Stone Cave north of Xiaochi Town in Kongsang Mountain.
The six-tailed spirit fox relied on the heat of the underground volcanic magma to desperately resist the cold poison brought by the 'Nine Condensed Ice Spikes'.
Li Yao's purpose in going to Xiaochi Town was to obtain the Xuanhuo Mirror from the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox.
He did not intend to travel with Zhang Xiaofan and the others. Instead, he took the lead, wielding the Overlord Divine Spear, transforming into a streak of green light, and flew towards Kongsang Mountain.
After several days of flying and making some inquiries, he quickly found Xiaochi Town.
The appearance of the three-tailed fox demon caused panic in Xiaochi Town, with reward notices posted everywhere, hoping that a master would come forward to help them subdue the demon.
Therefore, Li Yao quickly learned the location of the Black Stone Cave from the townspeople.
Beside the Black Stone Cave, there is a legendary well with a full moon that has been passed down for three thousand years. It is said that on the night of the full moon, one can see the reflection of a beloved person or a cherished thing.
Li Yao had absolutely no interest in this.
Besides, his timing was bad; it wasn't even a full moon night.
Therefore, he headed directly towards the Black Stone Cave.
Soon, he discovered a dark hole.
"This must be the Black Stone Cave!"
Li Yao peeked down into the hole.
The dark cave entrance exuded an indescribable aura of danger, sending chills down one's spine.
Li Yao, however, remained calm and stood atop the divine spear, jumping without hesitation into the dark cave entrance.
The divine spear emitted a faint blue light, and in the darkness, countless demonic beasts' eyes were fixed on Li Yao.
However, these demonic beasts were very wary of the divine spear beneath Li Yao's feet, and none of them dared to step forward and provoke him.
As Li Yao ventured deeper into the Black Stone Cave, the monsters lurking within the cave walls grew increasingly larger.
Despite their enormous size, they sensed the eerie aura emanating from the divine spear, causing them to stare at Li Yao with great apprehension, seemingly unwilling to take even half a step forward.
At the same time, Li Yao felt the bloody smell in the cave becoming increasingly strong.
Just then, a strange sound rang out.
A gigantic tentacle, moving with lightning speed, coiled towards a hole in the cave wall.
A series of shrill screams rang out, and a huge, five-eyed saber-toothed tiger was seen being wrapped up by enormous tentacles.
This monstrous tiger was more than twice the size of an ordinary tiger, yet it was weaker than an infant under the tentacles, unable to resist at all, and was dragged into the darkness by the tentacles.
"Heh, so this is the giant black leech?"
"Truly extraordinary!"
Li Yao smiled slightly; he had clearly seen what had just happened.
According to the original text, the giant black leech is an ancient and exotic species that lives in dark underground caves. It is enormous, standing ten feet tall, and has tentacles that are several feet long.
Although this giant black leech is not as large as the Black Water Serpent, its strength should not be underestimated.
Of course, to him, the giant black leech was nothing to mention.
So he continued down into the cave.
Just a few feet down, Li Yao heard a whooshing sound.
Immediately afterwards, another enormous tentacle attacked in the direction where Li Yao was.
Chapter 337 The Giant Black Leech
The tentacles of the giant black leech were incredibly fierce and terrifying.
In the original novel, Zhang Xiaofan was tormented quite a bit by this giant black leech.
However, Li Yao is not Zhang Xiaofan. He has experienced countless earth-shattering scenes and encountered countless unfathomable masters.
Even the Blackwater Serpent, which possessed earth-shattering power, was badly beaten by him and fled in panic.
How could a mere large black leech possibly harm him?
He smiled slightly, gathered his spiritual energy in his fingertips, and gently pointed at the tentacle that was slapping towards him.
Suddenly, a sharp finger strike shot out.
The next moment, a terrible howl came from the abyss below.
The menacing tentacles were instantly blasted into several pieces by Li Yao's finger force.
That scream must have been made by the large black leech, the main body of the tentacles, in pain.
Immediately, the base of the tentacle abruptly retracted.
Li Yao smiled faintly and immediately jumped down into the abyss.
As soon as he jumped into the abyss, several more enormous tentacles attacked him from all directions, slapping or coiling.
He flicked his fingers repeatedly, unleashing several sharp bursts of finger force that attacked the tentacles.
He attacked with incredible speed, unleashing several bursts of finger force almost simultaneously.
The several enormous tentacles that attacked were cut into several pieces, just like eels.
Immediately afterwards, a frantic roar of pain was heard.
At the same time, Li Yao had already clearly seen what the large black leech looked like.
The enormous monster was covered in soft flesh. Although he had severed several of its tentacles, it still had many huge tentacles that were waving wildly.
This monster looked extremely disgusting, somewhat like an octopus, but with many more tentacles.
It was like a giant lump of flesh that had sprouted many tentacles.
The giant black leech, having had several tentacles severed by Li Yao, was now enraged. Its remaining tentacles were wildly waving and writhing, as if it wanted to tear Li Yao to shreds immediately.
whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Soon, the giant black leech once again brandished its several enormous tentacles and attacked Li Yao again.
"Fine, I'm not playing with you anymore!"
Li Yao's purpose in coming here was to find the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox, so naturally he didn't want to get too entangled with the Giant Black Leech.
So, he reached out and guided the Overlord Divine Spear, which flew out suddenly, its true essence surging out wildly.
With a dragon's roar, a golden light flashed, and a golden dragon roared towards the giant black leech.
With a deafening roar, the massive black leech's flesh exploded, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere.
The giant tentacles that were attacking Li Yao immediately lost their life support and fell from the air, crashing heavily onto the ground in front of Li Yao.
The ferocious and domineering black leech died at Li Yao's hands.
...
Meanwhile, in a huge underground cave, a white fox suddenly opened its eyes, staring in surprise at the outside of the cave, its eyes filled with vigilance.
Behind the white fox, a beautiful and supple tail was quietly curled up.
But this tail is quite unique; it has six tails.
Beside the six-tailed white fox, there was also a small white fox.
And this white fox has three tails.
Two beautiful foxes embraced each other, as if...forever!
At the same time that the six-tailed white fox awoke, the three-tailed white fox also awoke.
Because she also heard the noise outside.
"Brother, it looks like someone has broken in!"
The three-tailed white fox looked at the six-tailed white fox and spoke gently.
"yes!"
The six-tailed white fox nodded slightly, its eyes filled with worry, and said, "The other party is probably quite powerful. We're likely doomed this time."
The three-tailed white fox frowned and asked, "Could it be that the people from Burning Incense Valley discovered our tracks?"
