Dark Palace.
“So that’s what alchemy is like?”
Bai Qi’s eyes glowed as he looked at the blueprints in his hands, no different from a hungry wolf spotting a plump sheep.
“It is indeed a brilliant idea. Despite evolving from primitive runes, a uniquely different path was taken. The Dark Emperor is indeed formidable.”
Schuck was equally generous with his praise, constantly integrating alchemy with what he had previously learned.
Alchemy, in essence, is equivalent exchange. The specific operation is extremely complex and even involves manipulation at a molecular level.
To put it simply, alchemy is like a compressed processing factory that reshapes the materials put into it according to the user’s requirements.
This is somewhat similar to the rune structure that Bai Qi has mastered. However, one focuses more on physical structure, while the other is on energy structure.
So, in principle, these two technologies can be said to be interconnected.
“Although alchemy can be said to have flourished under my influence, it was already in its rudimentary stage during the Founding Emperor Period. However, I suppose humans back then didn’t have as much time to properly research it.”
The Dark Emperor carefully stowed away the Nihility Bomb, saying, “It’s a pity that there wasn’t more time, otherwise, I could have increased the power of the Nihility Bomb by another ten percent.”
“No more, any more enhancement and it might start hurting innocent people.”
Bai Qi’s lips twitched. The current Nihility Bomb could already engulf the entire Imperial Capital. If its power were to be enhanced any further, the surrounding cities would probably be affected as well.
“Indeed, I will further refine it after we get through this time.”
The Dark Emperor nodded, turned to Bai Qi and said, “I must thank you for your help in solving many problems.”
“Likewise, Your Majesty’s alchemical array of human transformation has greatly inspired me.”
Bai Qi summoned Jie Ta, looked at the increasingly solid tri-elemental spheres of water, fire, and earth behind him, as well as the small wind elemental sphere at the bottom, and nodded in satisfaction.
Originally, leaving Jie Ta with the Dark Emperor was to see if he could find some useful information from alchemy, as it is somewhat related to medicine.
However, Bai Qi hadn’t anticipated that Jie Ta didn’t learn much about alchemy, but the alchemical array of human transformation inspired him to further purify his own bloodline.

…
Upon judging by the race and skills alone, it seemed like Jie Ta hadn’t improved. But the terrifying energy levels alone were enough to blind anyone.
The highly condensed elemental spheres behind Jie Ta served as the best proof of this.
“Nevertheless, the difficulty of your evolution is genuinely high, Jie Ta. Initially, I thought you’d evolve earlier, but you still can’t evolve despite your current state.”
Bai Qi patted Jie Ta’s head with some resignation. The treasury of the Crystal Palace had greatly enriched their resources repository, so Bai Qi had lavishly invested a substantial amount of resources in Jie Ta.
However, the Evolution Egg encountered a hurdle this time. No matter how much resources Bai Qi invested, the Evolution Egg only managed to enhance Jie Ta’s energy value.
“I detect a great deal of potential in this beast of yours. The normal methods of evolution may not work on him.”
The Dark Emperor said, “However, once he evolves, his abilities may be terrifying!”
“Yes, I have a basic understanding of the method to enhance Jie Ta. It depends on fate now.”
Bai Qi shrugged, feeling helpless. Recently, the time he spent in his travels had been decreasing and he had little chance to look for information about the Wind Elemental Realm. He didn’t know when he would be able to fulfill his wish.
“I believe you will succeed.”
The Dark Emperor smiled faintly, looked towards the slightly bright sky outside the window, and said, “It’s about time. We should get ready.”
“Let’s go.”
…
Imperial Capital.
The citizens got themselves ready early, bringing their families and heading for the Royal City.
Zhong Ding Festival was the birthday of the Founding Dynasty, and it was their only chance to meet the Emperor face-to-face.
Despite the slightly radical actions of the dynastic rule in recent years, they would not forget that it was the Dark Emperor who brought them long-lost peace.
As for other things…anything was better than being treated as livestock by ferocious beasts.
People went towards the Royal City in succession, oblivious to the soldiers in dark golden armor appearing quietly in every corner of the Imperial Capital.
Outside the city, ferocious beasts with bloodshot eyes peeked out from the woods, silently advancing towards the Imperial Capital.
Royal City.
Under the guidance of the Holy Light Guards, the citizens successively settled in front of the viewing platform prepared in advance, looking excitedly at the vast open space in the center.
During the Zhong Ding Festival, in addition to the opportunity to see the Emperor, new alchemical techniques that could offer great assistance to the citizens’ daily life and safety in the coming days were showcased.
This was a unique benefit for the people of the imperial capital! Usually, the Dark Emperor would have already appeared. Yet, this time, there was still no sign of him, despite the crowd’s extended wait; even the Holy Light Guards, who were supposed to protect the surroundings, were nowhere to be seen.
“Could there be some special event this year?”
The citizens were speculating amongst each other when sudden loud noise echoed from the empty lot, drawing everyone’s attention.
However, what appeared on the empty lot was not the special event they had imagined but a enormous wild fox with a ferocious appearance!
“Bea… beast… beast!!!”
Screams and cries rang out as the horrified people scattered like headless flies, fearing that any hesitation could lead to their death under the jaws of the wild fox.
What furthered their despair was that before they could flee from the viewing platform, they saw countless foxes, in all shapes and sizes, flocking in from all directions.
“A beast wave? Has the imperial capital been breached?”
Pervasive fear gripped all present. With every beast roar from the distance, their horror intensified, especially because of the Dark Emperor’s continued absence, which amplified their fear to the utmost.
Gradually, a sense of despair enveloped the entire imperial capital.
“Very good, everything is proceeding as we planned.”
Watching the scene on the viewing platform, Luke nodded in satisfaction, then turned and said to an elderly man with white hair and squinted eyes standing beside him, “Fox Chief, it’s your turn to perform now.”
“Alright, but remember your promise, Luke. Or else…”
A cold light glinted in the old fox’s eyes, and, shrouded by a white mist, he vanished on the spot.
“This old fox…”
As Luke watched the fox appear above the square, the smile on his face instantly disappeared.
“Once I fully master the Angel’s power, this old fox will be the first one I take down!”
“Luke, stay calm. Our immediate concern is to seize control of the capital. We can deal with the Fox Tribe… later.”
Seeing Luke getting emotional, Seth immediately advised. Luke nodded slightly, saying, “Hmm, it’s time for me to show up. You remember to take care of the aftermath.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let any cadavers go to waste.”
A gloomy light flashed in Seth’s eyes, his smile terrifyingly inhuman.
Whoosh!
Just as Luke prepared to make his grand appearance and suppress the Fox, the sound of a void breaking sounded from the sky, targeting the Fox.
“An ambush?!”
Feeling the increasingly sharp breath edging even closer to him, the old fox’s heartbeat sped up. Instinctively, he dodged to the side.
A black long sword grazed past the top of the old fox’s head. The annihilating breath from the sword freaked out the old Fox, and his dilated pupils narrowed to the size of pin-pricks.
“You damn humans can’t be trusted!”
The old Fox looked at the position of the two brothers angrily, and with a slight shake of his body, he disappeared from the spot again.
“Fortunately, I’ve seen through all of you of this race and made preparations in advance.”
The elderly fox’s eyes glinted treacherously. Suddenly, large numbers of ferocious beasts appeared both outside and inside the capital city, a hundred times more than the beasts surrounding the viewing platform.
In front of those ferocious beasts, a bright red nine-tailed fox was leading an onslaught.
According to the contract he signed with the two brothers, he was only required to bring a small portion of the beasts to camouflage an invasion.
But how could the old fox commit everything so easily? So he brought out nearly all of the beasts from the Fox Tribe, even including another legendary beast from the tribe, apart from himself.
This move was indeed risky, but as long as he acted swiftly, the tribe’s territory could be expanded significantly, and he could also gain a large number of human slaves.
By then, they were bound to witness a surge of talents in the Fox Tribe, and none of the surrounding tribes would be able to compete with his tribe.
However, just as the old fox revealed himself and prepared to take over the capital with his tribespeople, that same black sword once again appeared in front of him, with movements almost identical to before.
“Damn it, who is it?!”
The old fox dodged the attack once again and began searching for his adversary. However, the long sword offered no opportunity, stabbing again and again, leaving him no choice but to defend himself constantly. Through the gaps between the sword attacks, he saw a figure clothed in black armour.
In another part, the nine-tailed demon fox, seeing its own chief being beaten without any ability to fight back, accelerated in an attempt to provide help. Suddenly, a three-headed giant wolf blocked its way.
“A legendary fox? Your soul is interesting, and I just happen to lack a legendary test subject. So I’ll choose you.”
Schuck scrutinised the nine-tailed fox, showing no more interest than he would for a piece of meat on the chopping board.
“Damn you! How dare you insult me?!”
Roaring, the nine-tailed fox shot a stream of red flames from its mouth towards the Husky. However, it was blocked by an invisible barrier.
Awoo Awoo~
(Little fox, stop resisting, I promise to take good care of you~)
With a mischievous grin, Beta charged towards the nine-tailed fox, which wanted to summon its companions to resist, only to find out that it was surrounded by numerous warriors in dark golden armour.
They were completely encircled!
