Sometimes Tang Luo really admires them, these holy sons seem to favor incessant chatter even in the face of opposition. Could this verbosity be an inheritance of the saints?

The Nine-tailed Fox Demon was already emotionally unstable, provoking it even further, really reckless, young master Ji!

As expected, after hearing Ji Fu’s provocative words, the Nine-tailed Fox Demon flew into a rage.

“Keh keh keh keh!” With an endless hatred, the old and weak voice defiantly announced, “You’re right, this king has been foolish! Let’s die together!” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The anguished Fox King chose to self-destruct, intending to vanish into the spatial gap along with this minor Spirit Realm. Yet, since the Saint Child from the Han Family dared to treat the Fox King with such condescension, how could he not have a countermeasure?

Ji Fu noticed the movements of the Nine-tailed Fox Demon and shouted, “You’re not worthy!” His eyes were filled with Divine Light, his hands swiftly formed seals, leaving only afterimages. As he sent one binding spirit formula after another into the gate, with the powerful effect of the binding spirit spell, let alone the Nine – tailed Fox Demon’s fragmented spirit, even a fully intact spirit would not be able to resist.

After hundreds of array marks, the Demon King fell silent. However, Ji Fu’s face was filled with unprecedented gloom.

“Brother, what’s wrong?” Xu Lao asked, sensing the heaviness in Ji Fu’s heart.

Ji Fu glanced at the Spirit Realm Gate and said coldly, “Although the Demon King is suppressed by the binding spirit spell, his attempted self-destruction has made this Spirit Realm Gate unstable.”

“What will happen if it’s unstable?” Tang Luo asked with a frown. Since it has happened, there is nothing to take issue with. Now the main thing is to find a solution.

Xu Lao, who was well-informed, understood what Ji Fu meant as soon as he mentioned this and answered, “Being unstable means that individuals with too much spiritual power and too many individuals cannot pass through this gate.” “What do you mean?” Tang Luo could not accept this ambiguous explanation. What constitutes a strong individual and too many individuals? There must be a standard, surely.

“Howto put it…” Xu Lao, stroking his chin in thought, explained, “Suppose the Minor Spirit Realm is a lake. If you want to jump into this lake, you have to go through a particular entrance, which is this gate. No matter what level of person jumps into this gate, they will create ripples. Under normal circumstances, this gate is stable. Even if a warrior from the Fierce Realm jumps in, at most they will just create some waves. But when the gate is unstable, even if a Mortal Realm warrior jumps in, the ripple created can destroy this gate. Simply put, we can’t enter this gate anymore! Isn’t that correct, big brother?”

“Exactly!” Ji Fu’s face was ashen. Having knelt down to carefully sense the gate he stood up and said, “Now this gate can only be passed through by Mortal warriors, and no more than eight people at a time, and they have to go in one by one.”

“Can the Nine-tailed Fox Demon still manifest in the Minor Spirit Realm?” Tang Luo asked directly.

“It has been suppressed by the Binding Spirit Formation, and the effect can last for half a year. During this half year, it cannot stir up trouble.” Ji Fu answered.

So why panic? Just let a Mortal Squad go in and retrieve it!” Tang Luo did not understand, it was just taking an armory. As long as the Demon King could not interfere, would there be any difference between the Fierce Realm retrieval and the Mortal Realm retrieval?

Ji Fu glanced at Tang Luo, snorted coldly, and said, “It’s not that simple. This Demon King has regained his memory, and the mechanical puppet guards of the treasury must have been controlled by it. Even without the ability to grant spirits, those puppets have a formidable power that does not lose to the Mortal Realm. How could eight Mortal warriors survive the chase of these puppets in the Minor Spirit Realm.”

These mechanical puppets were initially y used to carry supplies, but after being granted spirits, they could also self-destruct, unleashing a blow that wasn’t inferior to a Fierce Realm power. Even if they were merely controlled, these uniquely materialized puppets could still display remarkable battle power, they are the pride of the Ou Family.

“When will this gate restore stability?” Tang Luo frowned and asked.

“In the short term, a year and a half; in the long term, three to five years. And it requires the Demon King not to try to self-destruct again.” Ji Fu answered coldly.

He never thought the situation would develop like this. The Demon King, who had already become the spirit keeper, actually regained his consciousness. Not even in ancient books was there a record of such a thing. Furthermore, the Han Family’s most important techniques and supplies were kept in this Minor Spirit Realm. It would be a huge loss if it was scattered because of the Demon King’s self-destruction.

The Chief of the Tang clan, who had been quietly listening to the side, suddenly spoke, “Master Ji, what does it mean that only eight Mortal warriors can pass through? If eight can pass through every day, there’s nothing to fear from a few hundred puppets.”

There were over ten thousand Mortal warriors at the peak of the Tang Clan. These mechanical puppets were just dead objects. One can sacrifice manpower to overpower them. There’s no trouble in choosing between over ten thousand Mortal warriors and a sacred treasury.

Ji Fu knew Tang Zhi’s plan as soon as he heard it and shook his head slightly, “Each Mortal warrior entering would cause a ripple. This ripple does not dissipate as soon as the warrior enters the Minor Spirit Realm, but rather represents the influence of the warrior’s own spiritual power on the Minor Spirit Realm. The currently unstable Spirit Realm Gate can probably withstand about ten Mortal Realm ripples. A conservative estimate is that eight Mortal warriors is the limit for entering.”

“What if the entered warriors die?” Tang Zhi continued to ask.

“The ripple will slowly dissipate, perhaps in a day or two.”

Clan Chief Tang Zhi nodded, calculating in his heart. According to his plan, the human wave tactic can still be applied, only the form would need to change. “Hey, I have a question.” Tang Luo questioned somewhat angrily, “Your Han Family arranged so many puppets in the vault, is there no way to control them? Are they even able to be controlled by the Demon King?”

The most challenging part now is how to let the Mortal warriors face the mechanical puppets in the Minor Spirit Realm. But defeating the puppets isn’t the only way forward, isn’t taking back the control not an option, must it come to blows?

“The priority of the puppet control seal is naturally the highest, but the one performing the seal must be at least in the Shedding Mortal Realm. If you can’t go in, what’s the use?” Ji Fu answered helplessly.

The Fox Demon had self-destructed its spirit and had also shrunk the otherworldly gate. It may seem reckless, but in fact, it was an extremely cunning move. Because Mortal warriors are incapable of handling the puppets, it had an opportunity to survive. It may even barter an escape route with the treasury since the Fox Demon is the spirit keeper. The binding spirit formation could only suppress it, not kill it. Otherwise, it would be a situation where both sides perished together. He blamed his insufficient experience. If he suppressed the Nine-tailed Fox Demon as soon as he heard its voice, nothing would have followed.

“Then what are we standing here for? Let’s go and select some excellent Mortal warrior teams to go into the Minor Spirit Realm for a probe.” Tang Luo shrugged. Since they couldn’t enter the Minor Spirit Realm, they could only go and select some teams of Mortal warriors to enter the Minor Spirit Realm for investigation.

Everyone looked reluctantly at the Spirit Realm Gate, then retraced their steps along the original path. Ji Fu, without the Boundary Breaking Stone, walked ahead with a silver trident lighting their way. Tang Luo and Xu Lao followed him.

As for the elders of the Tang clan, they were marking the route along the way, having thought of a way to exploit this winding, twisted tunnel..
