Become a fairy alone

Before the Ancient Demon Emperor made his move, Qing Li was also eager to try. After all, she had a powerful backer. Apart from a few powerful figures like the Desolate Gu Holy Demon, she was no match for them. Even if she couldn't defeat the other few troublesome ones, escaping wouldn't be a big problem.

Seeing the Ancient Demon Emperor make his move, Qing Li felt only relief. If she had actually charged to the front, even her senior uncle might not have been able to save her in time in this chaotic situation.

That old demon on the other side was terrifying, not entirely in terms of strength, but even more frightening was his astonishing killing power. In comparison, her senior uncle's methods were no less than his, yet he was much easier to approach.

He couldn't stand it himself, and he was no match for the Ancient Demon Emperor, so he could only urge his senior uncle to teach the other party a lesson.

“This old demon is cunning and his accumulated blood energy is extremely terrifying. Moreover, he has the advantage of formations. Even if I fight him within the formation, I am not confident of victory.” Lu Xiaotian shook his head.

The blood energy that the other party forcibly refined was too astonishing. Several hundred years is not a long time. Although the Ancient Demon Emperor has not yet fully digested it, these anomalies can be overcome to the greatest extent possible on his own territory.

Even if Lu Xiaotian wanted to kill the other party, he wouldn't rush in immediately to attack their strengths with his own weaknesses.

The Desolate Demon Saint, the Lord of the Moon Palace, and the Wind Demon Lord were ultimately major variables. Lu Xiaotian was happy to see the Ancient Demon Emperor take the initiative to eliminate these troubles.

"Isn't Master Uncle here to kill this old demon? How can we kill him if we don't go in?" Qingli asked curiously.

"They'll come out on their own, just wait and see," Lu Xiaotian said with a smile.

Of the nearly eight million elite demons, most were killed by the Ancient Demon Emperor himself, and a small number were also killed by Lu Xiaotian through various means. For this old demon, who killed them was not important; what mattered was that he could absorb their blood essence through formations and other arrangements. Now, he was taking action personally because the truth could no longer be concealed, and he had no choice but to act in this way.

With just a few junior demon lords and less than a million unsuspecting ants, how could they possibly escape his grasp?

The crimson demonic shadow pounced on the angry and fearful low-level demons like a ghost, while the crimson demonic plant also entangled all living beings around it at an astonishing speed, its sharp, needle-like roots piercing into their bodies and draining them of their essence, blood, and spirit.

The area below resembled a hellish inferno. Many demons leaped into the air, and under the waning moonlight, distorted demonic shadows rained down, blocking their last escape route.

The intensity of the screams far exceeded that of Lu Xiaotian's previous attack on Moonshadow Wilderness. One was a frontal assault with real swords and spears, while the other was a stab in the back. The goal was the same, but the methods were completely different.

After attacking Moonshadow Wilderness for so long, it's finally time to rest. The fate of those low-level demons is already sealed; even some at the Nascent Soul Demon Body realm are unable to escape.

The suspense now mainly lies with the three: the Desolate Demon Saint, the Wind Demon Lord, and the Moon Palace Master. After all, they are Demon Lord-level powerhouses with considerable strength, and they had a chance at the beginning.

The Ancient Demon Emperor's Law of Heaven and Earth has undergone considerable changes, with the entire troll phantom now bearing a deep layer of crimson.

Lu Xiaotian's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly felt a great sense of crisis. He saw that the blood-red giant demon phantom had changed again. Dense thorns grew from its back, and sharp spikes extended from the back of its large hand.

Its eyes shone with a blood-red light, and its gaze swept across the surroundings with unparalleled sharpness. Many low-level demons were pierced by its fiery gaze wherever it passed.

What a strange phenomenon! Lu Xiaotian sensed an unusual aura from the blood-red giant demon phantom, as if this aura was not entirely under the control of the Ancient Demon Emperor.

For figures like Lu Xiaotian and the Ancient Demon Emperor, this situation would be avoided at all costs, as any uncontrolled power in a battle could lead to disastrous consequences.

However, this strange phenomenon appeared on the body of the Ancient Demon Emperor. Lu Xiaotian was a little suspicious. Could it be that the blood energy that the other party forcibly refined in a short period of time was too amazing and could not be completely suppressed?

It didn't quite look like it, though. The strangeness of the crimson giant phantom formed by the method of heaven and earth didn't seem to come from the vast blood energy.

The strength of the Desolate Demon Lord is not weak. When he swings his trident, it is majestic and powerful. Every move is deeply rooted in the laws of the universe. As the commander of the Desolate Demon Guard, his individual combat strength is already at the top level of Demon Lord and Immortal Lord.

Feng Jie, the Demon Lord, and Yue Kong, the Palace Master, were repeatedly thwarted in their escape attempts. They realized that if they acted alone, they would be easily defeated one by one by the Ancient Demon Emperor. They immediately realized that they should join forces to fight against the Demon Emperor. However, given the Ancient Demon Emperor's cunning and shrewdness, how could he give them this opportunity?

Amidst the surging crimson light, the restriction timely prevented the three powerful figures from converging, confining them to relatively small areas. The crimson troll phantom waved its hand, a simple action that simultaneously brought the three powerful figures, separated in different areas, under attack.

While dealing with the attacks of the Heavenly and Earthly Laws, Feng Jie Demon Lord and his two companions also needed to use the power of laws and demonic energy to build a defensive line around their bodies to deal with the omnipresent attacks of the Extreme Demon Blood Flame.

Clang clang clang! The three unleashed their demonic blades, curved blades, and tridents, but all were suppressed by the sharp, thorn-like spikes on the back of the blood-red troll phantom's hand.

The sounds of clashes, sometimes crisp and sometimes dull, filled the air, and the situation of the three powerful individuals, who could not form a united force, deteriorated rapidly.

Feng Jie Demon Lord was the first to succumb to the pressure. His combat strength was roughly equivalent to that of the Moon Sky Palace Master, but the Moon Sky Palace Master had cultivated the spatial laws to a considerable degree, and his means of survival were somewhat stronger than Feng Jie's.

Forced into a corner, Feng Jie Demon Lord unleashed the illusory image of the Boundless Demon Blade within his body, unleashing unprecedented power. His terrifying blade aura clashed several times with the crimson thorns, yet he was still no match for his opponent, at least managing to gain a respite. Huang Gu Saint Demon, on the other hand, relied on his extraordinary strength to repeatedly clash with the crimson thorns.

Now it was the Moon Palace Master's turn to falter. He lacked the strength of the Desolate Demon Saint, and unlike the titled Wind Demon Lord, he didn't possess a phantom of a realm-suppressing artifact as a trump card. While the other two charged left and right, the Moon Palace Master was already in grave danger.

"Why isn't that damned Dragon Lord attacking anymore?" The Moon Sky Palace Master narrowly avoided a thorn, and couldn't help but feel resentful towards Lu Xiaotian.

Previously, they had relentlessly pursued the Moonshadow Wilderness, breaking through several lines of defense and their offensive was unstoppable. But now, seeing these demons suffering, they have stopped attacking.

Logically, Lu Xiaotian could maximize his gains by attacking amidst the chaos. If he could break through the barrier, he and the Desolate Demon Saint might be able to escape.

But Lu Xiaotian stood by and watched, adopting a posture of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, which made them uncomfortable.

Crack! The suspended demon mace took the blow from the crimson thorns head-on. The repeated impacts caused a few cracks to appear, and the Moon Palace Master coughed up blood and was sent flying, instantly forced to the bottom of the valley. The crimson troll phantom's attacks didn't stop, continuing to close in while the Moon Palace Master was injured. Gritting his teeth, the Moon Palace Master summoned a five-colored strange stone.

Lu Xiaotian's eyes lit up as he looked at the five-colored stone. There were some spatial fluctuations on the stone. He had obtained a similar treasure before, which was mainly composed of spatial power and also contained some elements of the Five Elements.

However, the balance of these forces is excellent, and they are not easily affected by external forces. Lu Xiaotian has been studying this thing for over a thousand years, but he has never been able to grasp its essence. He never expected that the Lord of the Moon Sky Palace also had one.

As soon as the Lord of the Moon Palace unleashed his power, it resonated with the spatial power within the five-colored stone. In an instant, a mysterious space was formed around the five-colored stone. The thorns slashed down by the blood-red giant demon phantom were also greatly affected. Once they entered this space, their trajectories became slightly distorted, and their movements slowed down.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Lord of Moon Sky Palace avoided the opponent's attack, appearing to be slightly more relaxed than the Desolate Demon Saint and the Wind Demon Lord.

Lu Xiaotian was greatly surprised, but a strong interest also appeared in his eyes.

These guys were originally someone I could either save or not save; my attitude towards them was ambiguous, entirely dependent on my mood. However, since the Moon Palace Master was able to decipher the secrets of the Five-Colored Space Stone, things changed.

Within the grand formation dominated by the Extreme Demon Blood Flame, which is also the Dharma Realm of the Ancient Demon Emperor, such a small space can be supported by itself.

It seems that Moon Palace's use of this item is quite a burden, as the cramped space is far from sufficient to support its ability to break through the great formation and escape. However, this is enough to make Lu Xiaotian look at it in a different light.

"Do you want to save your life?" The Moon Palace Master, controlling the cramped space and struggling to maintain the formation, suddenly heard Lu Xiaotian's voice.

"What does the Dragon Lord need?" The Moon Sky Palace Master was secretly delighted, but his expression remained calm, knowing that Lu Xiaotian must have some ulterior motive for saving him.

"The secret of this five-colored stone in your hand. Of course, you also need to submit to me," Lu Xiaotian said.

"Could you also rescue the Desolate Demon Lord?" Lu Xiaotian's condition was not excessive, and he was not averse to submitting to the Moon Palace Master.

Lu Xiaotian's ability to defeat the Ancient Demon Emperor and single-handedly threaten the Moon Shadow Wilderness in the Demon Realm has left a deep impression on the demons.

The opposing side came seeking revenge against the Desolate Sea Dragon Clan, while the Ancient Demon Emperor, after being defeated by them one after another, was willing to sacrifice all of their elite demon forces in order to secure his position. The two sides' actions formed a stark contrast.

The Ancient Demon Emperor's actions cannot be considered wrong; it's just that, relatively speaking, the Moon Palace Master prefers to work under a powerful figure like Lu Xiaotian.

The Holy Demon of Desolate Gu had saved him once before, and the Lord of Moon Sky Palace was thinking that if possible, Lu Xiaotian could also take him out with him.

"This is the Moonshadow Wilderness. The Ancient Demon Emperor spent a great deal of effort to set up this killing trap. How could it be easily broken by outsiders?"

"The blood energy accumulated inside is too thick. Saving you is only possible because you've cultivated your spatial laws to a certain level. Whether you can actually come out alive is still uncertain. As for the others, it's too difficult. Saving two at the same time might not even be possible." Lu Xiaotian shook his head and decisively refused.

In fact, it's not impossible for Lu Xiaotian to fight back with his strength. However, the Desolate Demon Lord is very difficult to subdue. The input and output are not proportional. Naturally, Lu Xiaotian doesn't want to take a huge risk to save a guy who has no relatives and is difficult to raise.

"Very well, thank you for saving me, Dragon Lord. If I can escape with my life, I will serve you faithfully in the future." The Lord of Moon Sky Palace sighed.

"I will pass on the Duan Yuding Technique to you. Try to sense the aura of the Kongtianzi Cauldron." Lu Xiaotian transmitted the technique to the Moon Sky Palace Master using the method of sound transmission.

Time is short, and it's unrealistic to expect the other party to take direct control of the Sky Heaven Cauldron in a short period of time. However, if even a little contact can be established, it will be much easier for Lu Xiaotian to rescue the other party later.

While transmitting his voice, Lu Xiaotian reached out and summoned five Void Heaven Cauldrons that flew through the air. It would be difficult to break the great formation in front of him with Buddhist sacred objects alone; he had to change his approach.

Stars floated in the void, their starlight converging into a river that shone on the blood-red barrier. The Great Five Elements Dragon-Evolving Divine Needles appeared at the right time, with lightning surging around the five needles. From a distance, they looked like five lightning wheels, and the specific shape of the flying needles could no longer be seen.

Five flying needles pierced directly into the blood-red barrier. The barrier tried to shake the needles off, but the five needles slowly advanced, as if they had taken root and pierced into the barrier. Twisted demonic vines surged wildly from all sides, but were blocked by several Buddhist sacred objects.

The blood-red barrier's counterattack was also extremely strong. At this moment, the giant Buddha of the starry sky struck down with a palm, like a giant hammer, driving the five needles into the barrier. Electricity surged within, forming a small area of ​​lightning on the blood-red barrier.

Lu Xiaotian reached out and grabbed at the air, and a ball of spatial power twisted into a channel that spread towards the lightning area of ​​the blood-red barrier.

The crimson aura immediately tried to crush it, but the passage was incredibly resilient. Even when twisted to its extreme, it continued to flow, with spatial power constantly replenishing it.

The Lingkong Plank Road alone could not directly contend with such a powerful formation; the thunderous power within the Great Five Elements Dragon-Evolving Divine Needle bore the brunt of the pressure.

Before long, the Moon Sky Palace Master sensed a faint spatial fluctuation. Having been taught the Cauldron Control Technique by Lu Xiaotian, the Moon Sky Palace Master began to feel a strange familiarity with this spatial power.

The blood-red thorns, sharp enough to cleave the sky, slashed down with far greater force than before. It seemed poised to shatter the small space he had created from the five-colored stones in a single blow.

Under increasing pressure, the Lord of the Moon Sky Palace tried his best to move towards Lu Xiaotian, but the Ancient Demon Emperor clearly sensed his intention and began to obstruct him. The Lord of the Moon Sky Palace tried to escape several times but was stopped each time.

The Demon Emperor's strength within this crimson array was too great. The Moon Palace Master felt a pang of despair. He had already exerted all his strength and was not far from the edge of the array, but the distance that he could cross in the blink of an eye in normal times now seemed to be an insurmountable chasm.

With a whoosh, the blood-red giant demon phantom slashed down again, and the test in this small space became increasingly severe. Although the Moon Sky Palace Master had deciphered part of the mystery of the five-colored strange stone, he ultimately failed to fully comprehend it. The difference between a Demon Lord and a Demon Emperor was as vast as heaven and earth, and could not be bridged by one or two ordinary treasures.

Realizing that the Moon Palace Master might escape, the Ancient Demon Emperor naturally intensified his attacks, shifting more of his attention to the Moon Palace Master. This relieved considerable pressure on the Desolate Demon Lord and the Wind Demon Lord. (End of Chapter)
