While Rumi fought desperately against the wicked monk and the red Oni near the altar, on the other side, Ren and his comrades faced a battle no less brutal. Standing before them was a colossal being: the nine-tailed fox, a living legend whose power grew stronger with every passing moment. Its breath alone was enough to conjure storm winds that shook the trees, while every lash of its tails unleashed waves of energy that tore apart the earth and water around the shallow lake.
Ren hovered in midair with his graviton gauntlets, his machine-wings sparking blue as he stabilized his control. Below, Freddy unleashed bursts of plasma projectiles that detonated around the fox's body, yet they left only shallow wounds that were instantly healed by the flow of its spiritual energy. Trek, with his giant frame, slammed the ground with his axe, sending a shockwave that pushed the fox back a little—but it lasted only seconds before the beast roared again with even greater fury.
