The little white fox snorted disdainfully, with a face full of disbelief.
It had a look like a dead fox unafraid of boiling water, and Chen Ye could even see disdain on a fox’s face.
Annoying!
This little fox could rival Qing Jun!
Too mischievous!
Chen Ye was so angry his teeth itched. This fox clearly watched him have an epiphany.
And now it pretended not to see and even mocked him!
But now, he couldn’t afford to offend this fox too much.
Just now, he had received an important piece of information from the Earth Element Tao Stele.
The forest of steles is divided into three layers.
They are the Tao Steles, the Five Elements Steles, and the Unity Steles, with these three areas forming concentric circles.
Among them, the Tao Steles are the outermost area, followed by the Five Elements Steles, and finally, the Unity Steles.
And within the Five Elements Steles, they are divided into the Five Elements Domains, with each domain centered around one of the Tao Steles of the Five Elements.
In other words, apart from this Earth Element Tao Stele, there are four other Tao Steles!
Chen Ye was extremely excited.
This Earth Element Tao Stele increased the proficiency of his Withered Glory Mystic Light Scripture by twenty points!
If he could comprehend all the Five Elements Tao Steles, wouldn’t the assurance of his Foundation Establishment be a sure thing?
It would be a certainty!
Not to mention the insights into the Tao of the Five Elements.
"Little White," Chen Ye said as he continuously rubbed the fluffy snowball, "did you say something you shouldn’t in your heart earlier?"
"Chirp?"
The little white fox had an innocent and bewildered look, as if to say, "Fox doesn’t understand."
But inside, it was greatly shocked!
How could this human race hear the thoughts of a fox?
Chen Ye squinted his eyes, having already seen the guilty conscience of the little white fox.
He didn’t know what the little white fox was thinking.
But he knew this fox absolutely had a belly full of tricks and was definitely secretly cursing him!
"Fine, I won’t care about what you’re thinking."
Chen Ye sighed, putting down the little white fox,
"Since you recognize this place, you must also know where the other four Tao Steles are, right? If you take me there, I’ll write off everything from before!"
Write it off?
Could it really write off all those secret sneers, quiet laughs, or even the vows that any place could be licked...?
The little white fox’s little brain was racing.
Lead the way to find the other Tao Steles?
Sure, it knew those places, but just thinking about the nearby dangers made its little paws chill.
But... not leading the way?
This nasty human race, had inexplicably comprehended the Earth Element Tao Stele; what if he held a grudge and withheld its pills later?
Or even worse, treated it as a demon slave, making it lick even dirtier places?
The little white fox shuddered.
No, no way!
It absolutely couldn’t give him an excuse to act up!
It snuck a glance at Chen Ye.
The other was smiling pleasantly, but his eyes were like he was the fox, and it was the chick!
"Chirp... chirp chirp! (Hmph! Leading the way, then leading the way! What’s the big deal!)"
The little white fox lifted its little head, trying to appear as if it didn’t care,
"Chirp! Chirp chirp! (First off! Those places aren’t as safe as here! Don’t blame the fox for not warning you! You insisted on going!)"
Chen Ye nodded: "Alright, it’s a deal, I won’t blame you."
The little white fox nodded its head vigorously.
Zhiwei watched her master and the little white fox talking, and tentatively asked, "Master, can you understand what the little white fox is saying?"
The little white fox was also stunned, right, how could he understand what it said?
Chen Ye glanced at the proficiency panel:
[Fox Language, Great Success: 1/100]
Indeed, in the past few months, listening to the little white fox chirping every day.
As he listened, the proficiency gradually increased.
But at Minor Achievement, he could only vaguely sense the general emotion.
And it was just now that he had finally broken through Great Success, barely understanding the meaning.
Chen Ye casually explained what the little white fox said to Zhiwei.
After listening, the little white fox stared at Chen Ye in shock.
He could really understand; how would it scold him to his face in the future?
Annoying human race! Even more cunning than the slyest fox!
It was indignant inside, scraping at the ground with its little paws to vent.
Chen Ye smiled more gently, bending down to rub the fluffy ball that had exploded, the feeling was still superb, "So, our smart and brave little white guide, which way do we go next?"
The little white fox shivered with disgust, jumped to Zhiwei’s side, and rubbed its little head against the girl’s leg for comfort.
Zhiwei, aware that the little white fox was of great help to her master, looked at it with particularly soft eyes, gently smoothing its fur with her little hand.
Feeling this warmth, the little white fox was slightly reassured.
At least Zhiwei still cared for it!
It mimicked Chen Ye’s cough, squatted on the ground, and started chirping.
Listening to the little white fox, Chen Ye gradually understood.
The regions of the Five Elements Steles are arranged with Fire in the north, Earth in the northeast, Metal in the southeast, Wood in the northwest, and Fire in the northwest, encircling the central Unity Stele.
Each domain is completely different.
And over the years, various anomalies have occurred in all the domains, and even the little white fox isn’t aware of the specific situations.
It only knows that some Tao Steles may have completely decayed.
Only the Earth Element Tao Stele, which carries profound insights, has remained relatively intact despite the passage of time, and does not have anomalies like the other domains.
"No wonder there’s hardly any cultivator near the Earth Element Tao Stele..."
Chen Ye suddenly understood. It seems that other cultivators are drawn to other domains with anomalies, which is why there are no traces of cultivators around here.
"Chirp chirp..."
The little white fox lifted a front paw and pointed in the direction of the Wood Domain west of the Earth Domain.
According to it, that direction is relatively safer.
But precisely because it’s so lush, it’s easier to let down guard and give rise to danger.
