In the next couple of hours, the two Frozen Spirit Foxes continued to battle against a myriad number of beasts.

Zena was releasing the beasts one by one so that these foxes could get used to the pace. Once she felt that these foxes were dominating their enemies too greatly, she would release another beast that would attack the fox nearest to their position.

These battles continued for the entire night. Tiana and her subordinates had no idea that while they were peacefully sleeping and recovering from their injuries, these two foxes had battled against nearly dozens of beasts.

All their opponents were much stronger than them. If not for the Bloodline Suppression, they would have died to the first enemy they faced.

Once the two foxes had reached their limit, Zena killed the remaining beasts by exploding that Lightning String. Once she had dealt with the beasts in the area, she immediately flew to Azaroth and informed him of the entire scenario.

Azaroth was sleeping at this moment. He woke up as he sensed Zena approaching him.

After hearing how Zena had trained foxes, Azaroth felt like facepalming himself right now.

'Zena has observed Noah too much. She is even mimicking that training method and using it on these kits,' Azaroth thought with a tired sigh.

Noah's training on his subordinates worked perfectly because these warriors were already adults, and they were mature enough to realize what was good or bad for them.

However, these foxes were too young. They didn't have much idea about their limits and were stuck to the ground.

These foxes had overexerted their muscles during their battle against the other beasts. By the time they reached their limit, they had already overexerted their muscles 3 times.

Even after reaching their limit, the will to survive would force them to stand again and battle against their opponent.

Noah's training had always been focused on activating this will of survival. Only when the warriors were closest to death would they advance greatly in terms of ability and mentally.

The two foxes had also greatly reinforced their willpower through this entire battle scenario. However, their muscles had been torn now, and they experienced unreal pain even when they tried to stand up.

In fact, their nerves were greatly damaged, and their bodies were hardly in their control.

Azaroth went to the location and was surprised to check out their body's state. It was much worse than he initially imagined.

Azaroth enveloped the two in his Heavenly Flames and began to heal them. These Heavenly Flames were healing their bodies while also activating their self-recovery ability.

Once the muscles are healed through that self-recovery ability, they will be much stronger. At the least, their limits to tolerating the strain on their bodies would increase.

Thus, Azaroth only healed their wounds that were visible to the naked eye. The Self-Recovery Ability of these foxes had been activated, and he wanted their nerves and other internal injuries to recover naturally.

Azaroth turned towards the beast corpses and waved his hand. All the beast corpses in the area floated towards him and were soon placed in a Spatial Ring.historical

After gathering these beast corpses, he began to gather some herbs in the area.

As he was gathering some herbs, Azaroth suddenly sensed someone and placed the last stalk of the herb in his Spatial Ring before speaking out with a smile, "It's not good to spy on someone, Miss Erica. Especially not for someone like you, who is the Sect Mistress of a Top Sect like the Black Lake Sect."

Erica soon appeared in front of Azaroth. She was flying in the air with an emotionless look in her eyes.

She gracefully landed on the ground right ahead of Azaroth. With a cold snort, she spoke out, "I heard the news that you dealt with the initial attack from the Night Mountain Sect. Congratulations."

There was a hint of contempt in those words.

Azaroth didn't mind at all and instead smiled with disdain, "You are very welcome. But I don't suppose you were delighted to see that, Erica. You were here since you knew how the Night Mountain Sect would counterattack."

"You were expecting me to be caught off guard by the beast attack during the night. You were planning to save me at a critical moment in return for concealing the information regarding your spirit," Azaroth spoke with a confident tone.

"However, you chose to not intervene when you saw how Zena and those two Frozen Spirit Foxes had dealt with the beasts. You have realized this entire situation was directly under my control."

Erica was dumbstruck at those words. Her silence also suggested her agreement.

Azaroth noticed that astonished look on her face and spoke, "You didn't want me to know that you were keeping an eye on me. I must commend you for having maintained your cool for so long."

"..Why did you call out to me then? If you had already seen through everything, it would have been better for you to act as if I wasn't here," Erica asked while looking straight into Azaroth's eyes.

She was trying to figure out how Azaroth's mindset worked.

Azaroth responded casually, "The answer is simple enough. You are not a threat to me. In fact, you cannot pose a threat to me even if you want to."

Before Erica could question him, Azaroth spoke out, "It seems you need a demonstration."

Without waiting for Erica's response, Azaroth raised his arm and released a strong Spiritual Pressure.

Unlike when Azaroth had released his Spiritual Pressure during the meeting, the Spiritual Pressure released from him was nearly six times stronger.

Since it was six times stronger, it even greatly affected Erica.

Erica unconsciously released her own Spiritual Pressure and contacted the Great Kun within her body 'Help me out a little.'

However, what she found greatly surprising was that the Great Kun didn't respond for a couple of seconds.

'What happened, Marin? Why are you not responding? Are you okay?' She asked him multiple questions, but the Great Kun named Marin didn't respond.

Azaroth noticed that Erica seemed to have lost her focus. He guessed that she was probably trying to contact her Spirit.

"Are you trying to contact your Spirit? You see, I have used my Spiritual Pressure to seal it in your mindscape. Even if it wants to, its power can't leak out of your mindscape," Azaroth spoke up at this moment.

"What?!" Erica was extremely shocked to hear this statement.

She knew just how strong Marin was. Ever since she had summoned it, she had never been able to see through its existence. She wasn't sure whether it was a Beast Emperor Rank of existence or a Beast Demi-God.

A Demi-God was a rank that was the peak of the Emperor Rank. However, these Emperors had touched the essence of the God Rank, and they held a strong possibility of advancing into the God Rank.

However, Marin couldn't see through Azaroth's strength. But still, Marin had mentioned that there was no need to fear him that much. He could use his power through Erica's body and boost her strongly enough that she could easily defeat Azaroth.

There was also the gigantic rift between a 5 Star Warrior and a 6 Star Warrior.

Moreover, Azaroth's attack had been a pure Spiritual Attack. Since Marin was essentially a spirit, it possessed great control over the Spiritual Energy and was highly resistant to Spiritual Attacks.

Thus, Erica was quite confident in dealing with Azaroth at this moment and maintaining her superior advantage.

However, she didn't realize when the situation slipped from her hands. In fact, she felt as though she never held firm control over this situation.

It was the man deviously smiling ahead of her who did.
