Everyone else tightly watched the Fox Race Leader.
"There is no other path, only by opening the Gate of Darkness can we enter the Dark Land!"
The Fox Race Leader said calmly.
Upon hearing this, everyone was disappointed.
They originally thought the Fox Race Leader had another way to enter the Dark Land, but unexpectedly, the Fox Race Leader wanted them to open the Gate of Darkness.
This Gate of Darkness had stood for so long; fox leaders through the ages tried to open it but failed.
Unexpectedly, this generation's Fox Race Leader also wanted to enter the Dark Land through the Gate of Darkness.
Feeling the crowd's disappointment, the Fox Race Leader raised his voice, "This time, it will definitely be successful, please rest assured, I wouldn't have called you all without complete confidence!"
"Really?"
A flicker of doubt flashed in everyone's eyes.
But seeing the Fox Race Leader so steady and confident, the crowd felt a little reassured.
"Now, please follow me!"
The Fox Race Leader waved his hand and led the group toward the Gate of Darkness.
"Yang, I don't know why Granny suddenly wants to force her way into the Gate of Darkness; I'm afraid even if all of us acted, we wouldn't be able to open it!"
Along the way, Young Lady Yaoyao said quietly to Yang Tian.
"This should be the idea of the Fierce Celestial King!"
Yang Tian said.
"In slumber? That's good."
Upon hearing that the Fierce Celestial King was in slumber, Young Lady Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, everyone arrived at the Gate of Darkness behind Fox Hill.
This Gate of Darkness was made up of two black stone slabs. From afar, everyone felt a strong mental pressure approaching, rendering them immobile.
"This is the Gate of Darkness!" the Fox Race Leader said sternly, "I will now set up a Demon Array, among you, who is willing to step forward and help me? If this Demon Array opens the Gate of Darkness, whoever helps me will get a promise!"
"Ah?"
The crowd was stunned; a deathly silence prevailed.
"Granny, will forcefully attempting to break the Gate of Darkness bring death?"
Young Lady Yaoyao quickly asked.
"Please rest assured, there won't be any deaths; I'm the one casting the spell. For thousands of years, the clan leaders have tried to open the Gate of Darkness but failed, yet no one died, and this time, no one will die either."
The Fox Race Leader said calmly.
The crowd was deathly silent, but then Zhang Qian stepped out: "Leader, if I help you, will you promise me a request?"
"Yes!"
The Fox Race Leader nodded.
"Alright! I'll help the Leader right now. My request is for Wang Qiang to die right here!"
Zhang Qian said firmly.
"What? Zhang Qian really can't let it go, she actually wants Wang Qiang to die here?"
Everyone was shocked by Zhang Qian's animosity.
Yang Tian smiled coldly, knowing the show was about to begin.
"This request..." The Fox Race Leader glanced at Yang Tian, then said, "Of course I can agree, Zhang Qian, help me cast the spell now, and I will promise your request!"
After saying that, the Fox Race Leader immediately set up the Demon Array.
As the Demon Array was cast, the sky changed color, a fierce wind arose, forming an Eight Trigrams Array.
Under the Fox Race Leader's instruction, Zhang Qian walked into the eye of the Demon Array.
"Gate of Darkness, break for me!"
The Fox Race Leader waved his hand, a demon wind spun, focusing on Zhang Qian, and shot toward the Gate of Darkness.
Bang!
With a rumble, the Gate of Darkness was opened at that moment.
But Zhang Qian's soul was directly shattered, scattered like wind-borne dandelion fluff, as her terrified voice echoed before death, "Leader... what is happening... this is meant to kill me..."
And the faces of the people around turned pale: "Wasn't it said there was no life-risk?"
"It's okay, Zhang Qian hasn't died, she has returned to our Fox Race's Holy Land of Souls. Now you can enter the Dark Land to search for treasures..."
The Fox Race Leader said calmly.
Her eyes turned blood-red, causing an unprecedented fear among the crowd...
At this moment, Yang Tian whispered to Young Lady Yaoyao, "The Fierce Celestial King is not asleep, he is possessing the Fox Race Leader's body, this isn't your Fox Race Leader, but the Fierce Celestial King!"
"What?"
Young Lady Yaoyao's face changed drastically...
