Become a fairy alone
Chapter 5747 Capture
"Where is this place?" The second brother, Zhang Nan, looked around at the stars with surprise and uncertainty.
They didn't encounter much resistance when they escaped from the Moon Palace Master's place. If they were in another location, the Moon Palace Master could cause them more trouble, but this was their territory, and shaking off this old monster wouldn't take too much effort.
Just as they had escaped their powerful enemy, stars of varying sizes began to appear in the void without warning. Before they knew it, stars of all sizes were floating around them.
Such a star field could not possibly exist around the Poisonous Miasma Island. The surrounding galaxy was brilliant, and the flowing starlight gave people a sense of comfort and pleasure, and even carried a mysterious aura of laws and principles.
Normally, the three brothers, Zhangbing, Zhangnan, and Zhangkun, would definitely stop and appreciate such a tranquil and beautiful scene.
At this moment, they had no interest in appreciating the place; instead, they felt a chill run down their spines and only wanted to leave this mysterious and inexplicable place as quickly as possible.
"Damn it, there are other powerful figures nearby, and they've already set up an array." The third brother, Zhang Kun, gasped.
"This is no ordinary formation." Zhang Bing and Zhang Nan were also shocked. They had entered the formation without even realizing it. The mystery of the formation far exceeded their expectations.
They didn't know how they suddenly found themselves trapped in the enemy's formation, nor did they know where the person who set it up was. Even though these celestial bodies were right in front of them, they didn't know how to break it.
They couldn't even find any trace of the formation, so they had no idea where to begin.
Faced with this completely unknown situation, they couldn't help but be afraid.
The fact that they failed to stop the three of them made the Palace Master of Kongyue, who was watching from the sidelines, even more alarmed. He had been following Lu Xiaotian for some time now, and apart from those two earth-shattering battles, he had also seen Lu Xiaotian use star formations and other techniques from time to time during Lu Xiaotian's recovery period.
Every so often, the various cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities that Lu Xiaotian develops will change.
The stars before him resembled the previous Starry Buddhist Domain, yet they also seemed quite different. It felt as if the various cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities Lu Xiaotian practiced were constantly changing, becoming increasingly mysterious and unpredictable.
The higher the realm, the more difficult it is to improve one's strength. This is almost a consensus within the several realms. However, it is completely different for Lu Xiaotian. He has already reached the peak of the several realms, but he is still improving and changing at a speed that is difficult for others to predict.
The three brothers, Zhang Nan and Zhang Bing, were greatly shocked. They traveled back and forth in the starry sky, but apart from the many celestial bodies with flowing starlight, they could not detect anything. They wandered around for a long time, like headless flies, without making any progress.
"Since they've trapped us with the stars, then let's destroy these celestial bodies!" Zhang Bing didn't even need to say a word before swinging his great axe and hacking at the celestial bodies in front of him.
Starting from the celestial body they attacked, several star lines, like serpents, snaked along different celestial bodies and moved around the sea of stars, while the celestial body in front of them remained unmoved.
The three brothers, Zhang Nan and his brother, were extremely shocked. The attack power of that axe blow was already quite strong, with seventy or eighty percent of their full-force attack.
They couldn't even leave a trace on the star before them; the Poisonous Miasma Island had completely obscured the ground, leaving them entirely within a vast star field. The defensive capabilities of a single star were already terrifying to this extent.
Looking once more at the boundless starry sky, the three powerful figures who had just entered the Ghost Lord level couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
Trapped in this starry sky, it seems that they can't get out by risking their lives. They don't even know who to fight for now.
"I refuse to believe that the defenses of these celestial bodies can withstand the attacks of the three of us indefinitely." Zhang Bing's face hardened. He had only attacked once before, and if one person couldn't handle it, then all three would attack together!
"Attack!" Zhang Bing shouted, his longsword and bone hammer, both imbued with ghostly energy, simultaneously struck the star they had just encountered, but to no avail.
The three stalkers, refusing to believe it, attacked again, repeating this process and switching to different targets each time.
The results were the same, the only difference being that the attack intensity and the number of star rays emitted varied depending on the size of the target they switched to. As for the stars, they showed signs of damage.
The three brothers of Zhangbing were extremely discouraged, as they had never encountered such a strange and perplexing situation in their cultivation journey.
"Who are you? If you have the guts, come out and fight us, so that we three brothers can die knowing why!" Zhang Bing roared fiercely, and randomly struck out hundreds of palms in all directions. After a series of crackling sounds, it still didn't stir up any waves.
"The Dragon Lord's supernatural powers have truly reached a level that is beyond the comprehension of gods and demons," exclaimed the Lord of the Moon Sky Palace.
Zhang Bing and the others were completely unable to see what was happening outside. Even the Moon Palace Master and the Ten Thousand Poisons True Monarch, who spared some attention, were extremely shocked.
"Such strength! He trapped three Ghost Lord level experts with a wave of his hand. He has indeed reached the Heavenly Dragon Realm!" True Monarch Wan Du sighed inwardly.
He didn't know when Lu Xiaotian had set up such a method. The formation of this starry sky was completely unexpected; the celestial bodies seemed to have naturally emerged from space. There wasn't a trace of any restriction.
"If you hadn't held those three ghosts back from the front, it wouldn't have been so easy to trap them," Lu Xiaotian said with a smile.
The Lord of Moonlit Palace was somewhat speechless. Judging from the other party's tone, it seemed that it was just not that easy, but that it didn't mean it couldn't trap the other party. What difference did that make?
However, the Lord of the Moon Palace also felt it was normal. The three ghosts in front of him did not have a deep foundation in the Ghost Lord Realm. They were good at combined attacks, and he found them troublesome when they joined forces, but their individual strength was not strong.
These three ghosts are incomparable to some of Lu Xiaotian's previous enemies. How easy would it be for them to escape from the hands of the Supreme Heavenly Dragon?
"You might need these ghosts?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
"It's not of much use to this old man." The Lord of Moon Sky Palace hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
His cultivation of the spatial laws was already a natural progression, and he didn't need the fortune from these three ghosts for the time being. The Moon Palace Master was somewhat arrogant; since Lu Xiaotian had him under control, he disdained to kill him.
"Fellow Daoist Wan Du, if you want these three ghosts, you may come and take them." Seeing that Palace Master Yue Kong did not want them, Lu Xiaotian naturally informed True Monarch Wan Du.
"Thank you for your kindness, Dragon Lord!" The True Monarch of Ten Thousand Poisons was overjoyed upon hearing this, and he no longer cared about absorbing the essence of the poisonous miasma. Although the three ghosts were weaker than he was at his peak, they had still reached the level of Ghost Monarch.
"Please help this old man subdue these three ghosts, Fellow Daoist Lu." Originally, True Monarch Wan Du only thought that Lu Xiaotian or the Lord of the Moon Aperture would share some benefits with him after subduing Zhang Nan and the other two, and he would be extremely grateful. Who knew that Lu Xiaotian's methods were so powerful, completely exceeding his imagination.
"What do you want to do with these three ghosts?" Lu Xiaotian asked. Controlling these three ghosts that had fallen into his hands was not difficult, but he needed to understand the intentions of the Ten Thousand Poisons True Monarch.
"I intend to refine these three into poison puppet substitutes," the Myriad Poison True Monarch chuckled.
"Given your current state, isn't it like trying to swallow an elephant by a snake? Can you handle it?" Lu Xiaotian looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.
If it were the True Lord of Ten Thousand Poisons at his peak, there might be some hope. Now, his strength has severely diminished, and even the partial recovery he's made by absorbing the essence of the poisonous miasma is still short-lived. He meant well in wanting to help, but he didn't want to cause any problems.
"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Lu, I have a plan. The process may be somewhat dangerous, but Fellow Daoist Lu is strong enough to suppress their counterattack. I will then be able to erase their spiritual consciousness. The higher the risk, the greater the reward." True Monarch Wan Du chuckled.
“In that case, Fellow Daoist Wan Du, please prepare accordingly.” Lu Xiaotian nodded and slowly extended his left hand.
The pupils of the Moon Palace Master and the Myriad Poisons True Monarch contracted. Every move made by a Heavenly Dragon Realm expert was accompanied by the essence of the Great Dao of Law. If they could capture even a fraction of it, they would benefit greatly.
The two old monsters perked up, but they couldn't discern anything mysterious about Lu Xiaotian's move. They only saw the previously densely packed stars, arranged without any apparent pattern, slowly contracting as Lu Xiaotian's left hand began to retract.
The stars transformed into a giant hand, and Zhangbing, Zhangnan, and Zhangkun immediately witnessed a terrifying scene.
The stars seemed to form a giant hand, as if trying to grasp the three of them directly in its palm.
"It's not a formation, this is the method of an Emperor Realm expert!" Zhang Bingzui realized, his face filled with horror.
The previous Lord of the Moon Palace was already extremely powerful; even the three of them, working together on their own territory, couldn't defeat him. They could only maintain a temporary stalemate, and would inevitably be defeated in the long run. Their army was defeated even faster, so they naturally had to retreat first. Who would have thought they would immediately encounter an even more terrifying opponent?
They haven't even seen who the enemy is yet, and they're already in a desperate situation.
By gathering the stars into their hands, they could not sense any trace of the spell being cast, yet the encirclement was undeniably real. At this moment, they couldn't help but feel a sense of the formlessness of the Great Dao.
As an observer, the Lord of the Moonlit Palace was filled with shock. Although the difference between the Sovereign's position and the Emperor's rank was only one step, the difference in their realms was truly worlds apart. Using the stars as his hands to grasp the entire Milky Way, the process of his great hand closing was slow, yet magnificent and awe-inspiring.
The three ghosts caught in the middle were more intimidated and anxious. With their cultivation levels, they simply couldn't break through such a technique once trapped inside.
Knowing that such a powerful figure was coming, they might have had a chance if they had scattered and fled immediately. But now they were already under the cover of his divine power, and Zhang Bing and the other two had no hope left.
"We were unaware of your presence, senior, and have committed many offenses. We beg your forgiveness. Our three brothers are willing to do everything in our power to make up for the losses suffered by the Dragon Clan. We hope that you will show mercy and spare our lives."
Zhang Bing had completely lost his will to fight and immediately begged for mercy. It wasn't that he didn't want to fight; he simply couldn't find a worthy opponent, and the two sides were on completely different levels. If he could resolve the dispute by begging for mercy, that would be the best outcome.
"What's done is done. There's no going back now that it's already done," Lu Xiaotian replied.
"We juniors are willing to follow you, senior. Please give us a chance," Zhang Kun said again.
"No need, I don't need a few of your men." Lu Xiaotian refused directly.
"You are supposed to be a powerful expert at the Emperor Realm. What kind of skill is it to secretly plot and launch a sneak attack while the three of us brothers are fighting this white-bearded old monster?"
"This won't do, that won't do either." With their escape routes completely cut off, Zhang Bing and his companions stopped being polite and their voices became shrill.
"Whether we ambushed you or not, you know the answer in your hearts. I don't need to resort to such tactics to deal with a few juniors like you." Lu Xiaotian didn't care about the other party's opinion.
It would be best to have three more Ghost Lord-level experts under one's command, but ghosts that can cultivate to this level are not so easy to subdue.
Against weaker enemies, as long as the Dragon Realm gains the upper hand, it's not a problem if they can cause any trouble. But the real challenge lies with the entire Immortal Realm, including allies recruited by the Four Heavenly Emperors. Their overall strength far surpasses that of the Dragon Realm.
Faced with such an enemy, it's hard to guarantee that the three ghosts before him won't rebel. Lu Xiaotian could cut off their escape route by having them swear an oath and planting a soul imprint on them, but that would require his personal intervention. These juniors aren't worth him using such methods on now.
Previously, when Lu Xiaotian forced the Demon Emperor of Yaoqing and the Emperor of Shura to make an oath, it seemed to outsiders that Lu Xiaotian hadn't done anything. In reality, he had also used part of the dragon soul to participate in the oath to increase its binding force.
Restraining powerful emperors is already a huge drain on Lu Xiaotian. It would be unwise to spend his energy on a few ghost lords as well. If he were to divert his energy, it would affect his ability to restrain the two demon emperors, which would be a net loss.
The three brothers of Zhangbing had a heavy aura of Yin and evil. These ghosts were ruthless and full of malevolence. Lu Xiaotian did not expect to be able to truly subdue them in a short time. It would be better to use them to do a favor for the True Lord of Ten Thousand Poisons.
Although the old monster, the Ten Thousand Poisons True Monarch, was ruthless and merciless, he was at least not an ungrateful person.
As they spoke, the giant hand formed by the convergence of stars slowly and deliberately contracted inward. The celestial bodies surrounded and continuously squeezed the three ghostly figures, reducing their room to maneuver. Eventually, the starlight became almost tangible, pressing down on the three ghostly beings from all directions.
The three wisps of miasma were increasingly bound, and every move they made was greatly restricted by the starlight. No matter which direction they went, the binding force of the starlight followed them like a shadow, and this power was constantly increasing.
When the three old monsters were no longer able to speak and moved like old turtles, they were finally held in the palm of the giant star and could not move. All that remained in their eyes was fear and despair.
As the starlight entered his body, even the power of the laws within him, which had been fused with the ghost essence, became stagnant and unusable. His life and death were now in the hands of others, and everything was over.
Seeing this, the True Monarch of Ten Thousand Poisons was overjoyed. When Lu Xiaotian's gaze swept over him, he knew it was time to act. A wisp of intense, domineering poisonous gas spread from his body, splitting into three in the void, like three ropes binding the miasma stalks, miasma nan, and miasma kun. (End of Chapter)
