Chapter 50: Unexpected Problems.
Levi wanted to curse, but fortunately, the voice told him before it was too late. If not, all his hard work will become meaningless.
"What happens?" The middle-aged monk asked, although both of them don’t agree with each other's way of thinking, the monk felt that the dragon turtle was knowledgeable.
"It looks like our conversation ends here." Levi stands up, seeing that the human begins to become tense. While the demonic beasts snarl and are ready for bloodshed.
"This is an order; don’t let them near the mountain even if you need to sacrifice your life, number 36."
Master, I am here." A black-clad human knelt down in front of Levi.
"I need to do something if I don’t return and proceed with the plan."
Yes, master, I shall remember your favor." The black-clad man is one of the martial artists from an unorthodox faction that Levi helps get revenge on. Because of that, most of them are willing to sacrifice their lives for him. But he will not be here forever, and because of that, he has set up a backup plan for them.
"Take care of the monk." After saying that Levi left the place, each step caused the ground to shake. The black-clad man sounds a whistle. Many black-clad people come out of the forest and the mountain.
It was impossible for the middle-aged monk to stop the large dragon turtle, the size of a city wall. Not to mention the demonic beasts and the black-clad peoples from unorthodox factions that were ready to fight to the death.
But he needs to try. "Get ready to attack!" The middle-aged monk takes a wooden rod, and his body begins to change; a golden glow is visible on his skin.

Prince Shen Tu is passing around the chamber door. He is indecisive about whether to enter or not. Nonetheless, he can feel his mother's aura weakening.
Suddenly, he can sense a familiar aura coming toward him, and a dragon turtle appears. Levi can change his size without any problem, and the cave entrance is large; even if it's small, he can transform into a turtle.
"Why are you here? You are supposed to guard the mountain." Prince Shen Tu's body begins to become burly and prepares to attack. Traitors among demonic beasts are common; he had lost count of how many times his mother got ambushed by her own ally.
The reason his mother has been alive until now is because of her intuition and loyalty. Anyone who tries to harm his mother is dead.
"Your Highness, I come because I can sense that your majesty's aura is getting weaker and can’t advance to nine-tail demonic fox," Levi observed the prince's reaction. Rather than beating around the bush, it is better to be straightforward.
"How do you know my mother is trying to advance to nine tails?" Only two people know about the queen's seclusion and can break through: he and Long Ru, the dragon-horse. Because of that, it only makes the prince warier than Levi.
"Your Highness, I can help the queen. We don’t have enough time; once the breakthrough fails, the queen will die." If the prince refuses to cooperate, he can only leave this place and hide in the river, waiting for the main mission to be completed. He had around fifty more years to survive in this world. Either way, he only loses the extra reward.
The prince is in a dilemma because, behind the door, he can feel something is wrong with his mother.
"Fine, if you do anything strange, I will kill you." The prince turns around and opens the door.
"I understand." Levi follows from behind.
On a high platform, the queen of the demonic fox looks weak. Her white fur had become dull, and some of it had already fallen off.
"Mother!" Seeing that the prince comes near the platform but doesn’t dare to get close, He worries that it will only cause his mother to lose control.
Levi scrutinized the queen's condition; even if he cast a rejuvenated spell, it was useless. Because the queen is losing her vitality. There is one way left to save her, and although it was risky, he is sure that the voice will not let him die just like the last time.
Prince, I have a way to help the queen."
"How I will do anything!"
"Let the queen consume my blood."
"Why?"
"Your Majesty is losing vitality; my blood might help her breakthrough." Levi is also not sure if his blood can help her; however, without doing anything, the queen will die.
"Fine, once my mother survives, I will reward you with anything you want."
After that, the prince's hand transformed into a claw and made a cut on Levi's leg. Blood begins to flow out like a stream.
Mother, please drink the blood."
Levi put his leg in front of the queen.
Shen Yi, although weak, can hear everything. She can feel her body getting weaker, and without any choice, she bites Levi's leg and drinks the blood coming from the wound.
Levi's eyes twitch because of the pain. ‘Why is this stupid queen biting my leg? You're supposed to just drink the blood.’ In the end, he remains silent.
Miraculously, she can feel her vitality restored, and her eight tail begins to spread like a peacock. Soon, a shadowy nine tails appear. Seeing that the queen bites and drinks the blood faster.
Levi felt his blood had been drained from his body.
After half an hour, the queen's nine tails are already gone, but Levi still doesn’t hear about the completion of the mission.
Shen Yi, in demonic fox form, shrank and transformed into a beautiful woman wearing a royal robe; behind her can be seen nine fluffy tails.
"Thank you for helping me; I need to pass another tribulation." After saying that, she left the chamber. The prince doesn’t say anything and follows. Levi is too tired to say anything.
Outside Huli Mountain, a dark cloud suddenly appears, and lightning begins to crackle across the cloud. The demonic beasts and humans stop fighting because they suddenly feel heavy pressure coming from the Huli mountain.
Even the martial masters on the battlefield feel uneasy.
"What is happening?" The beggar asked.
"I don’t know if the aura is different from that of a martial master." The elderly man answered.
Long Ru recognized that aura and could feel that the queen's strength was getting stronger. But looking at the dark cloud, something is going to happen.
Soon they see a beautiful woman with nine white fox tails behind her heading to a mountain cliff. The lightning began to gather in the sky.
The demonic beasts sense something and run far away from the mountain. The humans are at first confused, but they also follow.
What happened next were the nine lightning bolts, as if a large pillar fell from the sky at the woman with the nine fox tails. Rather than falling one by one, the lightning falls at the same time. It’s like the world is trying to stop the demonic nine-tail fox from existing. However, the nine lightning bolt energy suddenly becomes weak, like it is being absorbed back into the cloud.
"BOOM!"
The mountain shakes, and rocks fall from the cliff. Because of the debris and smoke, no one can see what happened to the queen.
Long Ru watches everything and can sense the queen's weakening aura after being hit by nine lightning bolts. What happens next is that a wind vortex appears and suckers up all the surrounding qi. Only when the debris is gone can people see the qi being absorbed by the beautiful woman.
Shen Yi floats in the air when she opens her eyes; she sees this world differently. Now it’s time to make her dream come true.
After the queen of the demonic beast completed the transformation to a nine-tailed demonic fox, the human alliance higher-ups decided to retreat and plan for the next attack.
Inside the chamber, Levi feels lethargic after losing so much blood. To think that even after sacrificing his blood, the queen still had to face one more tribulation he no longer cares and needs to flee from this place if she fails.
Suddenly, he heard a long-awaited monotone voice.
["Additional mission complete."]
["Main mission complete."]
["Reward will be given once you return to the main world."]
"Finally." Levi smiles, his head falls to the ground, and he closes his eyes.
Prince Shen Tu rushed into the chamber. "General Levi, my mother succeeded!" He thought Levi was sleeping, but when he got closer, he realized that the dragon turtle was dead.
Shen Yi returns to the chamber and sees the carcass of the dragon turtle.
"Bury General Levi's body with respect, and once everything is over, build a temple for people to worship him." Shen Yi felt pity that her savior had died, but she needed to make a plan to create a demonic beast kingdom.
"Yes, mother."

In a chaotic space, three figures watch everything that has happened. In the middle is a humanoid silhouette that looks like it contains space and a star. Another two figures are in the shape of a demonic fox with numerous tails and a human wearing a robe made from a glowing star.
When the fox with numerous tails tries to interfere with the Tianxia world, another world will wake up from its slumber.
Both of them try to interfere with each other. One tries to make the demonic beast the ruler of this world, and another is trying to prevent it. In the end, the former wins. Because of Levi's interference.
The human wearing a robe made from glowing stars can only give up for now and disappear.
Before the fox leave, an orb of blood materializes and goes toward the humanoid figure, the owner of this space. After that, both of them disappeared.
