Become a fairy alone

Kongtong followed Lu Xiaotian from the Kongying Clan's secret realm and experienced almost every kind of fierce battle.

In his early years, Kongtong was the leader of the four guardians of the Kongying Clan. His strength was already that of a first-class expert in the Yuan Shen Body realm. He had experienced many fierce battles and even joined forces with other Yuan Shen Body experts to kill demon lords or demon lord-level powerhouses, gaining a lot of luck.

Later, Kongtong once attempted to ascend to the throne. Although he failed, he witnessed a magnificent landscape unlike any other primordial spirit body.

To help Kongtong reach a higher level of spiritual energy, Lu Xiaotian provided him with a considerable number of spatial treasures, including pills made from several materials from the Kongyue Ice Spring and spatial origin crystals, which allowed Kongtong to preserve its vital energy.

Now, not only has his strength returned to the peak of his primordial spirit form, but he has also refined a Xuan Tian-level treasure like the Kongzang Thousand Mountain Banner. His combat power has even increased compared to before his attempt to ascend to the throne.

Not to mention the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha, Jiu Renshan, and Xiang Kuang, whose strengths are comparable to his, they have all arrived one after another. Kongtong is confident that he can suppress these guys in front of him with his own strength.

"These demons and monsters have no small ambitions. Little Qiao is still being pursued. Let's finish this quickly. Old Monster Kongtong, don't say I'm stealing your opponent." Xiang Kuang's bright red cloak fluttered, and his fiery red hair blew in the wind. This stylish appearance had become his trademark.

"Alright." The three guys in front of him are somewhat weaker than him, but it will still take some time to deal with them.

Kongtong has no shortage of such opponents to hone their skills, or rather, once their cultivation reaches its peak again, they no longer need tempering. They just need to wait for a new opportunity. This is similar to the situation of Yin Han and Hu Xiulong.

As soon as Kongtong responded, Xiang Kuang waved his hand, and five terrifying giant dragons swept through the void.

The powerful bloodline of the Myriad Realms Flood Dragon Ancestor, the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Earthly Treasury, and the Nine-Ren Mountain all turned their heads in awe.

This guy's bloodline is probably no less powerful than that of the top dragon bloodlines, Mad Dragon and Amethyst Mirage Dragon.

Originally, Xiang Kuang's cultivation level was quite inferior to theirs. This guy was also a rare battle maniac. After several battles, his bloodline potential was unleashed. In terms of combat power, the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of the Earthly Treasury and the Nine-Ren Mountain, though unwilling to accept it, had to admit that the other party was a notch stronger.

Their comprehension was no less than Xiang Kuang's, but the bloodline of the Myriad Realms Flood Dragon Ancestor was indeed too domineering.

The five dragons attacked separately, and before Kongtong could even open a gap, they frantically burrowed into the relatively weak areas of the spatial blockade.

Shi Fangke and the others were terrified. Xiang Kuang's strength was not much inferior to that of Kongtong. One Kongtong was already extremely troublesome, and it took the three of them working together to barely put up a fight against him. Now another one had arrived.

Within their respective races, there wasn't a single person who could rival a cultivator of this level of primordial spirit body; in fact, it might take tens of thousands of years for each race to produce even one such top expert. And now, two of them had suddenly appeared, not even counting the Nine-Ren Mountain and the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Earth Treasury.

With a roar, the five dragons brutally tore Antfire Tong to pieces, and the dozen or so sword shadows also shattered.

As the first to act, Kongtong naturally reaped slightly more rewards than Xiang Kuang. Under the suppression of Kongcang Crystal Mountain, Shi Fangke and Bi Shizhong barely managed to hold on. At the critical moment, Bi Shizhong's body exploded, transforming into countless corpse worms that frantically fled into the distance.

"Thinking you can leave so easily?" Kongtong chuckled lightly, and the three Kongcang Crystal Mountains shone brightly. Under the gentle crystal light, the corpse worms dissolved instantly, their screams filling the air, and they were wiped out in a short while. As for Fang Shike, he had already transformed into a lion shadow and been absorbed into the crystal mountains.

"Judging by the time, Xiao Qiao will be here soon. Let's set up a large formation near this pool. The enemy has made such a big fuss, we can't let our guard down just because we've wiped out a few insignificant guys."

"Ordinary demons are nothing to worry about. What we really need to guard against are those demon lords and demon lord-level powerhouses. We must also be prepared for this."

“Brother Kongtong’s spatial array is quite mentally taxing, so let me handle it for now. If I can’t withstand the pressure, then Brother Kongtong can take over later,” Jiurenshan said with a smile.

"Very well, then I'll trouble Brother Renshan." Kongtong nodded, the terrain and law fluctuations here were indeed favorable for Jiurenshan to set up his formation.

Nine-Ren Mountain opened its mouth, and nine amber-like beads flew out, eight of which fell in different directions and disappeared into the earth. Xiang Kuang, the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Earth Treasury, and several others from Kongtong looked around warily.

To avoid any mistakes, the formation at Jiuren Mountain is set up very slowly. They need to be wary of old monsters who are a level stronger than them, and the formation must be set up to be perfect.

The initial setup of the grand formation was complete, and more than a dozen auras of varying strengths wafted from afar. Leading the fleeing group was none other than Yu Xiaoqiao, though her face showed little sign of panic. In contrast, the pursuers behind her were furious.

Bang bang bang, several crimson scale ant-men exploded one after another, and five dragon shadows rose from the ground one after another.

Xiang Kuang soared into the sky, "What's most annoying are these Crimson Scale Ant-Men. I don't know what kind of weird method they used, but they can barely exert part of the strength of their primordial spirit body. They're not only weak but also extremely annoying."

Xiang Kuang reached out and summoned the five-dragon staff, which he then grasped in his palm. The staff struck down from the sky, and the leading Crimson Scale Ant-Men were unable to withstand the blow and were sent flying backward.

Xiang Kuang himself wasn't worried about these monsters; they posed no threat to him whatsoever. However, these creatures were extremely deadly to the low-level warriors of the Dragon Domain.

The other water sprites, earth-armored cave lions, and other creatures were also horrified. However, their crisis had only just begun, as Kongtong and the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha successively made their moves.

Yu Xiaoqiao, who had been running away, also turned the tables and returned with incredible speed.

Screams erupted as the first to fall were the seven Crimson Scale Ant-Men who made up the entire group. Their unstable foundation was most easily exposed in this environment. Facing the overwhelmingly powerful Kongtong disciples, they had virtually no ability to retaliate.

Even though Yu Xiaoqiao's cultivation level was slightly lower inside, her ability to summon her lotus clone was still extremely impressive.

Swords clashed and demonic light raged, leaving the scene in complete disarray in moments.

A cloud rock spider demon narrowly escaped the encirclement of five opponents; she had never experienced such a terrifying scene.

Five top-tier experts, who are rarely seen even once in many years, actually appeared this time, rendering the Crimson Scale Ants largely useless in this situation.

The Red Demon Ant-Man clan, whose origins are unknown, possessed this secret technique. They almost lost their lives believing the other party's lies. However, it can't be said that the Red Demon Ant-Man were entirely unreliable. While their strength was slightly weaker, they compensated for their lack of quality with sheer numbers, playing a significant role in the early large-scale searches and wiping out some of the weaker patrol teams in the Dragon Domain.

But he failed at the crucial moment, and was utterly defeated by these powerful figures from the Dragon Realm. If it weren't for his exceptional survival skills, he would probably be dead by now.

"One of them actually escaped." The Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha was still not satisfied after splitting the heavily armored cave lion in two with a single slash, and said with annoyance.

"The other side isn't entirely made of clay. Apart from the bloated Crimson Scale Righteous Man, their combat strength is actually quite good." Jiu Renshan shook his head.

Achieving such results is considered to have met expectations; it's normal for unexpected events to occur occasionally during battles. In fact, if Yu Xiaoqiao hadn't taken the initiative to act as bait, using a sound transmission talisman to lure these demons into a trap, they would have had difficulty discerning the opponent's intentions, let alone gathering and annihilating them.

Once the Crimson Scale Antmen disperse, they pose a significant threat to some patrol teams in the Dragon Domain, since not everyone possesses their strength.

“As the Dragon Lord’s disciple, Yu Xiaoqiao has received many treasures from him. Even the rest of us can’t catch up with her. These guys are really overestimating themselves,” Xiang Kuang chuckled.

He used to call him "Young Master Lu," and Lu Xiaotian didn't mind. However, as more and more forces from various races gathered in the Dragon Domain, it became inappropriate for Xiang Kuang to address him that way.

The Shibaki tribe was one thing, since they couldn't beat him anyway. Jin Tong was carefree and didn't care about any of that.

The key issue is that Wen Yan, Wen Tingdao, Zi Luo, and other dragons have always disliked him. Wen Tingdao and Zi Luo are quite capable, but they can't gain the upper hand against him. However, he truly can't defeat Wen Yan, especially now that she has risen to the ranks of Dragon Lords, making it easy for her to deal with him.

Xiang Kuang may be carefree, but that doesn't mean he's stupid. A wise person knows when to yield. After being beaten up by Wen Yan, Xiang Kuang didn't say a word and wisely changed his tune.

Qingcheng and the others couldn't be bothered with such matters; it was just a matter of title. If Xiang Kuang had the strength to resist Wen Yan, then so be it. If he didn't, he was too old to complain after getting beaten up. Even if he did complain, Xiang Qingcheng herself couldn't beat him.

The group of five arrived at the edge of the pool, where jade light shimmered. Yu Xiaoqiao took out the jade ball again and whispered a few words into it.

The group quickly reached an agreement and then entered the pool one after another.

"The aura feels so familiar and powerful." As soon as they entered, the group's bodies involuntarily stiffened.

Yu Xiaoqiao and the others exchanged fearful glances. With their combined strength, they were confident they could even fight a Demon Lord-level expert if the opponent's foundation wasn't too deep. But the aura here was like that of the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor from back then.

Even the slightest unintentional exertion of power from an Emperor-level expert could send shivers down their spines. The Kongtong group, having witnessed many grand occasions, still found it difficult to suppress the trembling in their bodies.

"It's the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor." Xiang Kuang, who was usually a battle-hungry man, was speechless at this moment. It wasn't that he was cowardly, but rather that the suppression of his cultivation level was too heavy. He tried everything he could, but he couldn't relieve the pressure before him.

After the five entered the pool, they were surrounded by a misty fog, which greatly interfered with their spiritual senses and vision. When they looked back, the path they had come from had been twisted and disappeared, making it impossible to return the way they came.

"This pool likely hides a tremendous secret. When the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor fought against the Dragon Domain, he was clearly defeated by the Dragon Lord, yet he quietly left behind such a contingency plan, which even the Dragon Lord probably did not know about."

The Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha, usually unrestrained and wild, became unusually serious at this moment, sensing the gravity of the situation.

The spy left behind by the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor has remained hidden from Lu Xiaotian's eyes and ears, lying dormant in the Dragon Domain for so many years without making a move. Now that he has launched his attack, he will most likely wreak havoc and bloodshed in the Dragon Domain.

"Whatever, we can't go back now anyway, so let's just look ahead and see what the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor is up to. If necessary, we can fight him to the death." Xiang Kuang's blood surged, and he forcibly activated the power of the Myriad Domains Flood Dragon Ancestor's bloodline to eliminate the discomfort.

A moment later, Yu Xiaoqiao, whose cultivation was slightly weaker, was the first to give in. She felt the powerful and eerie aura around her constantly penetrating her body. If she didn't activate her defensive treasure, she would probably fall asleep soon. What it would mean to fall asleep in this environment was all too obvious.

Left with no other choice, Yu Xiaoqiao once again summoned the jade ball. With a flash of jade light, a serene figure appeared inside.

"That Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor is quite the schemer." Lu Xiaotian glanced around in surprise.

It's normal that Xiang Kuang and the others couldn't see through the disguise; the difference in their cultivation levels was too great. Even Lu Xiaotian's avatar couldn't detect the slightest disguise from outside the pool. Now that they're inside, how could he not see through Yu Xuantian Emperor's trick?

"Xiao Qiao, you've done a great service this time." Lu Xiaotian praised Yu Xiao Qiao. Before he finished speaking, a powerful aura spread out, repelling the pressure of the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor, which made Xiang Kuang and his group feel much better.

"Master, what exactly did Old Monster Yu Xuan do? The aura around us is terrifying," Yu Xiaoqiao asked in surprise.

Everyone else looked over, waiting for Lu Xiaotian to answer their questions.

"This method isn't particularly strange; the key lies in its secrecy. The other party left behind a spatial treasure that can reside within the immortal plant. It was probably left behind during our great battle. To avoid being discovered, the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor himself didn't mark the exit location, which is why we had to send someone to find it."

"There are many jade figurines in this spatial treasure. Someone has been sending demons into the passage through a restriction, turning them into jade figurines to accumulate strength."

At the same time, once this passage is fully stabilized, it can also be used to teleport enemy troops. "The Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor didn't come personally; it's likely the Evil Turbid Heavenly Dragon has returned, and perhaps he's even persuaded other Supreme Heavenly Dragon Realm Emperors," Lu Xiaotian said, his attention diverted.

Since the Green Fruit Barrier detached from its original body, Lu Xiaotian's control over it has been gradually weakening. At this point, the Dragon Domain is not much different from the Immortal Realm or any other place to Lu Xiaotian.

With his main body absent, Lu Xiaotian's divided spirit had expended considerable energy during the last invasion of the Evil Heavenly Dragon, suppressing other opportunists who sought to take advantage of the chaos. In order to gain as much understanding as possible of the changes in the Dragon Realm, Lu Xiaotian placed his divided spirit within a jade sphere that could transmit information and also nourish the soul and calm the mind.

There were several such jade balls. One was taken by Yu Xiaoqiao, one by Xiang Hua, and the other was in Lu Wushuang's hands. When they traveled around the Dragon Domain, Lu Xiaotian was also able to collect a lot of information through them.

Of course, it can also be used to save lives in the face of insurmountable danger. For example, right now, if it weren't for his distraction, Yu Xiaoqiao and the five members of Kongtong, no matter how strong they were in their primordial spirit bodies, would not have escaped being jadeified.
