Become a fairy alone

"There are other Emperor-level powerhouses?" The group from Nine-Ren Mountain were horrified. The strength of just one Evil Heavenly Dragon was already terrifying; with another, the Dragon Domain would have no chance of survival. Even the most daring among them wouldn't dare to imagine such a horrific situation. They simply had no way to deal with it.

"It's just speculation at the moment. The Evil Heavenly Dragon's realm was already unstable, and he was severely injured in the great battle back then. It would be difficult for him to fully recover in such a short time."

Given the Evil Heavenly Dragon's injuries, it would be impossible for it to gather a staggering number of demon tribes within the Supreme Heavenly Dragon Realm. These natives would not submit to a weakened outsider unless the Evil Heavenly Dragon persuaded other partners.

Lu Xiaotian glanced at the increasingly intense jade light deep within the pool, where extremely subtle spatial fluctuations were visible. These spatial forces were quite condensed, spreading outwards through roots of varying thickness.

"Time is running out. You should leave this place immediately and go back right away. There's no need to return to Long'ang City. Just take a detour to the more distant Dique City."

"Master, what about you?" Yu Xiaoqiao asked anxiously.

"It's just a distraction, so what if it's a loss? If this drags on, you might not be able to leave." Lu Xiaotian flicked his finger, and a blood-red aura transformed into a dragon shadow. The dragon shadow let out a clear cry and swam away into the distance as if it were a fish in water within the jade-colored water.

The crimson dragon shadow not only led the way for Xiang Kuang and the others, but also blocked the remaining pressure from the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor in the pool, allowing the five of them to travel at high speed.

Moments after Xiang Kuang and his group of five left, two jade-armored warrior figures flew over at high speed. Their aura merged with the water pool, and although they were fast, there was not a single abnormal fluctuation.

"Eastern Alchemist Saint, it's been a long time." The jade-armored warrior on the left looked at Lu Xiaotian, his eyes filled with a complex expression.

"You actually left a fraction of your attention here. You're really willing to sacrifice for the Dragon Realm. I doubt any other Heavenly Emperor would risk their lives like this." Lu Xiaotian looked at the other person in surprise.

Although both are at the Emperor level, the other party is no match for him in terms of primordial spirit. The other party has also expended his divine sense to create such a scene.

Moreover, this is the Dragon Domain, and they are going to great lengths to avoid being discovered. After all, Lu Xiaotian had considerable control over the Dragon Domain in the early stages.

“A mortal enemy, naturally cannot be taken lightly. Any other Heavenly Emperor would have made the same choice.” The jade-bodied war terracotta warrior shook its head, pointing its spear at Lu Xiaotian.

The two spirits were separated from the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm by hundreds of millions of miles, and neither knew what had happened outside the Dragon Domain. They continued their struggle according to the original plan and trajectory.

"Your distraction in discovering this place is useless. Since my true self is not in the Dragon Domain, the Dragon Domain will undoubtedly be destroyed this time."

"You've probably thought about this kind of good thing a lot, haven't you?" Lu Xiaotian said dismissively.

"I've seen some of the demon tribes that attacked the Dragon Domain this time, and they're nothing special. Even if you can win over other Emperor-level powerhouses, plus a crippled Evil Heavenly Dragon, the chances of conquering the Dragon Domain are slim."

"Is that so? I'd like to see just how strong the Dragon Domain has become. If you want to stop me, first destroy this wisp of your divine power." Before the words were finished, the jade-armored warrior's spear was already thrusting towards Lu Xiaotian.

The spear's power wasn't particularly strong. After all, when the Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor personally led his army to conquer the Dragon Domain and suffered a defeat, he was now facing the pursuit of this newly ascended Heavenly Dragon in the most dangerous place in the several realms, the Supreme Dragon Realm. He dared not expend too much energy, lest his own combat power be damaged and bring about disastrous consequences.

The Jade Armor Warrior's power barely reached the level of a Celestial Lord, but it thrived in this environment, receiving a certain boost.

With the combined strength of Yu Xiaoqiao and his five companions, and with the protection of his dragon might, escaping the pool shouldn't be a problem.

One of the two jade-armored warrior figures made a move, while the other took advantage of Lu Xiaotian's distraction and swiftly swept past from the flank.

Success can be achieved by keeping Lu Xiaotian's attention here. Lu Xiaotian is so focused on those juniors, perhaps because intercepting them will be useful later.

Lu Xiaotian, distracted and unarmed, effortlessly darted left and right, unleashing his Dragon Soaring Void Movement Technique. The jade-armored warriors attacked like a whirlwind, spear shadows everywhere, yet Lu Xiaotian always managed to glide past them, his spear protruding from the ground.

The jade-armored warrior's eyes were cold and stern. He was also extremely annoyed by this battle. If any clone were here, it would be easy to mobilize the power of laws to directly seal off the surrounding space, and it would be as easy as turning one's hand to capture and kill Lu Xiaotian's sliver of consciousness. Why bother with such a complicated method?

"I never imagined that we would need to rely on mere combat skills to determine who is superior," Lu Xiaotian laughed heartily.

"It's not about determining who's better; you're just buying time for those juniors. If you dare to clash with me even a few times, you'll surely be stabbed to death." The jade-armored terracotta warrior sneered.

"You, with only a slight distraction, dare to call yourself emperor? I'm not afraid to tell you the truth: I went to the Immortal Realm, and the Dragon Clan totem has not shown any abnormalities so far, which means that my true form is doing well. I suppose the situation in your Immortal Realm is not so good."

"If the battle between immortals and demons hadn't been so violently shaken, and the world-suppressing artifacts of several realms hadn't been greatly affected, would you have been able to grow so powerful until now? As long as the four Heavenly Emperors gather together and join forces to break the seal on the Dragon-Slaying Guillotine, you will surely die!" The jade-armored warrior remained unmoved, and the spear in his hand moved faster and faster.

At this level, both sides were already as hard as steel, so Lu Xiaotian's method was ineffective.

The two sides exchanged blows, with the Jade Armor Warriors mostly on the offensive. As the Jade Armor Warriors gradually became familiar with the Dragon Soaring Through the Void technique, they slowly manipulated the restrictions within the Jade Pool to block Lu Xiaotian, and finally thrust their spears towards Lu Xiaotian's brow.

"Someone might appear who can kill me, but it will never be you. Not even a sliver of your attention will do." At this moment, Lu Xiaotian smiled calmly, and just as he was about to be stabbed, he simply vanished on his own.

"Damn it!" The jade-armored terracotta warrior was furious. Even if it couldn't kill Lu Xiaotian's main body immediately, it would still feel somewhat accomplished to destroy a wisp of his soul. But Lu Xiaotian wouldn't even give it that much of a thought.

A few ripples spread across the water, and several figures emerged from the lake one after another.

"Haha, finally out." Xiang Kuang laughed heartily, then looked at Yu Xiaoqiao, "Little girl, you've escaped the cage, why are you looking so long-faced?"

"Master's attention is still elsewhere," Yu Xiaoqiao said sullenly.

Although she suffered from amnesia in the spirit world from childhood to adulthood and was separated from Lu Xiaotian for a period of time, she spent most of her time by Lu Xiaotian's side. She watched Lu Xiaotian go through countless battles and face countless powerful enemies, with Lu Xiaotian always personally taking the most dangerous positions.

Now that she had finally cultivated to the Primordial Spirit Body, she was still in this situation. Even though Lu Xiaotian had only lost a tiny wisp of his spirit, Yu Xiaoqiao was still upset. She feared that if the Great Heavenly Emperors returned to the Dragon Domain in the future, this situation would repeat itself. "It's just a wisp of spirit; to the Dragon Lord, it's not even a drop in the ocean," Xiang Kuang said dismissively.

This battle maniac has traveled through countless realms, suffering injuries beyond the mortal realm. Although he tries his best to avoid mental trauma, he has still been injured many times. He doesn't think that losing a little bit of mental energy is anything.

“Girls are more meticulous, unlike you, a roughneck.” The Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha chuckled.

He, Jiuren Mountain, and Kongtong didn't think there was anything wrong with it. At the critical moment, Lu Xiaotian was able to sacrifice some of his energy to cover their retreat, and they appreciated Lu Xiaotian's kindness. However, they had followed the Dragon Domain to fight in various places, and with each other going back and forth, it was hard to care about these things anymore.

Although they are at the same level, the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha, Kongtong, and Jiuren Mountain have existed for too long, so calling Yu Xiaoqiao a girl is perfectly correct.

After escaping the pool and relaxing slightly, suddenly the pool rippled with jade-like color, and a powerful aura silently swept over.

"The other party actually chased after us." This aura far exceeded their cultivation level, but the first reaction of the Earthly Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon and the Nine-Ren Mountain was not shock. Instead, their eyes revealed a dangerous look.

"It seems that one of them was stopped by the Dragon Lord, and another is chasing after them. The Dragon Lord's distraction was destroyed because of us. We really can't compete with others on their territory. But since they've already chased us out, it's hard to accept that they just tucked their tails between their legs and ran away like this."

Xiang Kuang said with murderous intent, facing a formidable enemy whose strength far surpassed any of them. He immediately activated the power of his bloodline, exuding the fierce and violent aura of the Myriad Domains Dragon Ancestor.

"What Xiang Fengzi said is right. I think we can give it a shot. There are few monsters like the Water Banyan Clan and the Red Demon Ant-Man who can fight them. It's rare to run into one now. Although the Dragon Lord's loss of a bit of his soul is not significant, we can't easily swallow this insult if we have the chance."

Of the people present, the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha has the most similar personality to Xiang Kuang, and is now the first to stand up and respond.

"Let's fight then. If things don't go well, we need to evacuate immediately." Kongtong and Jiurenshan exchanged a glance; they were undoubtedly the most rational. After exchanging opinions, they also felt it was worth a try.

They had never seen a stronger opponent with a higher cultivation level. They couldn't defeat them in the pool, but now that they were out, they no longer had to endure the oppressive aura. Moreover, with the help of the formation, they could at least put up a fight.

A beam of jade-colored light shot into the sky from the pool. The jade-armored warrior coldly looked at the people present. He had originally planned to give up, since the younger generation had already left the pool.

To everyone's surprise, the other party did not flee in a sorry state immediately after coming out, but dared to linger here. Even if Yu Xuantian Emperor was only slightly distracted, he was extremely angry at this moment. When did he become despised by such a few juniors with primordial spirit bodies?

Considering how much Lu Xiaotian valued them, even though coming out would involve some risks, the Jade Armor Warrior didn't think dealing with these juniors would be much trouble. It would likely be a matter of a few shots.

Upon appearing, the jade-armored warrior did not hesitate and aimed a spear at Yu Xiaoqiao, whose cultivation was relatively weaker.

Yu Xiaoqiao had prepared many strategies to deal with the enemy, but under the spearhead, she was momentarily intimidated and found herself unable to move. Her perception of the surrounding laws instantly dropped to zero.

It wasn't that she was truly unable to move; rather, she simply didn't know how to block this incredibly simple shot. It seemed that no method would work, and she had no idea how to dodge it.

The moment the Jade Armor Warrior made its move, even the members of Jiuren Mountain were taken aback. The impact of the spear's power on the primordial spirit was too strong; let alone Yu Xiaoqiao, even Jiuren Mountain and the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha couldn't react much better.

Kongtong was the first to react. He reached out and threw the three crystal mountains into the air, where they instantly merged into one and crashed head-on into the jade spear.

A low thud followed, and the combined Crystal Mountain was struck hard, instantly pierced and sent flying apart.

Kongtong let out a muffled groan, his face turning quite pale for a moment.

"Impressive technique! Behold my Five Flood Dragon Imprisoning Staff!" With Kongtong's intervention, Xiang Kuang's Myriad Domain Flood Dragon Ancestor bloodline was activated to its maximum.

Without any unnecessary movements, he simply swung his staff, followed by five overlapping shadows. This relieved some of the pressure on Kongtong, but the crisis was far from over. Fortunately, Jiuren Mountain and the Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon of Ksitigarbha had also recovered from their initial shock.

With a wave of his hands, Jiuren Mountain caused a colossal palace to emerge from the ground and rise into the clouds from all four directions.

Mount Jiuren was divided into eight, and above each palace was one of his clones. The eight figures struck down with a single palm, the palm prints pressing down like celestial palaces in the clouds.

The Jade Profound Heavenly Emperor's sliver of consciousness frowned. In terms of true combat power, this sliver of his consciousness still needed the Jade Armor Warrior, and was indeed inferior to some Immortal Lords.

Dealing with an ordinary primordial spirit body is basically a piece of cake, as the two sides have vastly different understandings of the laws and mysteries. Xiang Kuang's attacks, which seemed incredibly powerful among those of the same level, were full of flaws against the jade-armored warrior.

He had sensed the formation before even making a move, and theoretically, he should have been able to severely injure at least two opponents before they activated it. However, a slight oversight still occurred.

Kongtong was able to react immediately from the shock of divine sense and seize that fleeting opportunity.

With the opponent's grand formation activated, his spear momentum was somewhat neutralized, allowing the five juniors to fully unleash their strength, making the situation somewhat difficult to control.

The jade-armored warrior casually thrust out his spear, easily shattering the palm strike from Jiuren Mountain, which carried the power of the array. Even the eight seemingly imposing and enormous palaces trembled slightly.

Jiu Renshan's expression changed drastically, realizing that the flaws in the formation were exposed by the opponent's spear thrust. The opponent's spear had struck the weakest point in the entire formation.

Fortunately, at this moment, Yu Xiaoqiao's swords and blades also struck out one after another, deflecting the residual force of the spear for him; otherwise, the great formation would have been pierced by the opponent.

"Impressive technique. As expected of an Emperor-level expert, even a jade terracotta figure controlled by a mere fraction of one's consciousness can achieve such a terrifying level."

Xiang Kuang let out a roar as powerful as a demon or a dragon, and five ferocious dragon heads emerged from behind him, each corresponding to one of the five elements. The fire dragon in the center possessed the most domineering aura, spewing out five beams of light. The powerful and domineering nature of the jade-armored warrior also aroused its ferocity.
