"Ouch!"

The Ghost Moon Fox suddenly leaped to the side, using both feet and tail.

Lu Ran's eyes widened slightly as the unstoppable momentum he had been carrying faltered.

Don't get it wrong; Lu Ran wasn't afraid to fight but was astonished by the Ghost Moon Fox's reaction speed, which caused his attention to shift slightly.

Lu Ran knew that the Ghost Moon Fox Clan did not have abilities like Evil Sense or Evil Sensitivity.

So if the opponent had such speed, it was clearly a racial trait:

The Ghost Moon Fox Clan, naturally swift!

Compared to the bestial Evil Demons, the physical talents of the Human Clan were truly at a disadvantage.

What left Lu Ran even more in awe was that this particular Ghost Moon Fox was significantly faster than the River Realm Fifth Rank Ghost Moon Foxes he had faced in the forest before!

"Quite out of the ordinary," Lu Ran muttered to himself, turning his head to look at the white fox under the moon.

This Ghost Moon Fox, while dodging with leaps, was actually using its tail too?

So, that's why its dodging was even quicker!

This was indeed novel since the habits of the Evil Demon minions stemmed from the Evil Demon's likeness.

As such, each Ghost Moon Fox's tail was used for output and defense.

Hmm... Occasionally, the tip of the tail would curl, toying with the prey's nerves.

And here was this white fox, using its tail in movement?

It seemed trivial, but in reality, it was quite horrifying!

Because it signified change, growth, the beginning of detaching from the traditional Evil Demon's influence and self-developing.

Was it that clever?

Or...

A thought struck Lu Ran!

Could it be because it was cornered into climbing the mountain to escape that it realized the tail's ingenious use?

Very likely!

"If you manage to advance to the River Realm, then won't that be something?" Lu Ran gripped the Silent Night Blade tighter and stamped his foot hard, conjuring the Immortal Fog once again.

"Ouch~"

The Ghost Moon Fox whimpered pitifully.

Its coquettish cry was enough to soften anyone's heart.

Generally speaking, a River Realm Fifth Rank Ghost Moon Fox Clan member would measure around 2.5 meters in length, with a tail length of about 2.2 meters.

The Ghost Moon Fox before him was no ordinary River Realm Fifth Stage beast; it was more than two sizes bigger!

Such a large creature, acting coquettishly with whimpers and whispers, didn't seem out of place at all...

Indeed,

Appearances are justice!

Of course, coquettishness aside, the Ghost Moon Fox's dodging was anything but slow.

The big white fox continued to utilize both feet and tail in unison, and its lateral movement became even more skillful.

"Thud! Thud! Thud!"

Lu Ran lost his target and headed straight for the cliff!

He stepped rapidly, trying hard to brake his momentum, and finally came to a stop at the cliff's edge.

This scene made the onlookers by the forest clench their hearts with apprehension.

And it was this scene that revealed the Ghost Moon Fox's true form!

Born with seven tails, it used two to dig into the ground, coordinated with all four feet to leap forward, and the remaining five tails gleamed with the beautiful moonlight.

Ghost Moon Evil Technique·Flowing Moon Tail!

"Ouch!"

The long fox tails bloomed like flowers, aiming at Lu Ran from all angles as he neared the cliff's edge.

Lu Ran tilted his head slightly, listening intently.

He clearly could have stopped abruptly, so why did he step continuously, so desperately?

The ploy was complete~

"Sss—"

Holding a blade in hand, Lu Ran, with his back to the Ghost Moon Fox, suddenly darted backward.

Fang Lin: "..."

She arrived in time to witness a heart-stopping moment.

Under the moonlight, Lu Ran stood on the edge of the cliff, seemingly in a dire situation.

Behind him, the white fox lunged swiftly, its long tails waving wildly.

Upon seeing this sight, Fang Lin almost couldn't help but intervene.

However, what followed was Lu Ran's "charging with his back turned to the enemy," which truly dumbfounded her!

Is this... what is this?

Is this the behavior of a person with a normal way of thinking?

Fang Lin finally understood why He Wenjing was always keeping a close watch on Lu Ran.

The kid indeed had something special.

And he really had some nerve!

Charging usually meant head-on into the enemy.

But what Lu Ran did was "back turned to the enemy, embracing death," chilling to the bone!

"Pop! Pop..."

Several fox tails struck down in front of Lu Ran, shattering the rocks.

Lu Ran, who had been sliding backward fast, put all his strength into his feet for a 180-degree turn and lunged at the white fox with his blade.

"Ouch!" the white fox cried out sharply.

Five tails had been thrust forward, but it still had two concealed behind.

In an instant, one tail stabbed from above to Lu Ran's left, and another swept toward his right.

Lu Ran used the swirling fog under his feet as a cover, padding beneath with a layer of airwaves.

Night Charm Evil Technique·Night Dance!

Lu Ran shifted direction sharply, stabbing towards the front left.

This small adjustment could be described as "exquisite."

He could completely avoid the tail stabbing from above and, at the same time, use it to intercept the tail sweeping from the right.

Looking at this expectation, Lu Ran could get even closer to the Ghost Moon Fox!

It was like killing three birds with one stone!

However...

"Whoosh!"

Unexpectedly, the tail sweeping from the right accelerated fiercely!

Lu Ran was taken aback, and with his eyes closed, he could perceive the suddenly intensified gust.

Instinctively, he lifted his blade to block the right side.

Sure enough, the tail sweeping from the right reached him first!

"Cling!!"

The moonlit tail, extremely tough, struck the blade, making a crisp sound.

Lu Ran felt a numbness in his arm and almost lost grip on the blade.

If he hadn't been using the Soul-splitting Evil Technique·Soul Splitting Power, at his mere second rank in the River Realm, he could easily have been flung away, blade and all.
