Become a fairy alone

"Elder Meng, thank you for your trouble," Wen Yan said.

"Good, after conquering Seven Stacks Island for so long, I haven't had a proper fight yet. Now it's time to loosen up my muscles." Meng Fushan laughed heartily. He wasn't unhappy that Wen Yan and the other three Dragon Lords were holding back their strength.

Lan Yunzhu Monk and Lei Peng Palace Master, two of the Dragon Lord's trusted confidants, charged ahead, already showing him considerable respect.

If they encounter trouble they can't handle, Wenyan and the other three dragon lords can resolve the crisis by joining forces. Unless absolutely necessary, it is indeed better for Wenyan and the others to preserve their strength as a precaution.

Before the laughter subsided, Meng Fushan swung his axe, and with the axe as the boundary, flames blazed on the left, burning away the entire nightmarish cloud.

Frost blanketed the ground on the right, freezing the nightmare clouds within, creating two extreme weather phenomena on the left and right. Due to Meng Fushan's domineering actions, many demons who were about to be devoured by the nightmare were given a rare respite.

Upon witnessing the power of Meng Fushan's attack, both the Red Demon Ant Queen and the Water Banyan Ghost Mother froze in shock.

Of those present, only the two of them had previously fought against Meng Fushan; they were old acquaintances. Over the past few thousand years, the old dragon's strength had increased considerably. The fortunes he had gained after joining the Dragon Domain were truly substantial.

The Jade Bone Ghost Lord noticed the improvement in the strength of the Thunder Roc Palace Master and the other two.

Having defeated powerful enemies one after another, the Dragon Domain, whose fortunes are rising steadily, is indeed in a period of growth. Not only Lu Xiaotian, but also the powerful figures below him and the younger generation of various races, most of whom have survived the great battles are beneficiaries.

Compared to the four members of the Manghu Palace who each had their own ulterior motives, the Dragon Domain group of experts had fought side by side for many years and had battled numerous powerful enemies. As long as Lu Xiaotian remained safe, they could maintain a high degree of cohesion.

Meng Fushan, Lan Yunzhu Monk, and Lei Peng Palace Master worked together without using any particularly powerful methods, but their efficiency in eliminating Nightmare Clouds surpassed that of the four Palace Masters of Manghu Palace.

The group led by the Palace Master of Manghu were filled with apprehension. Along with apprehension came fear. The strength of the Dragon Domain was far beyond their expectations. Even without the Dragon Lord, it was so powerful. When the enemy attacked the Dragon Domain, the Dragon Domain dared to directly lead its troops to pursue and attack relentlessly.

The Palace Master of Manghu pondered that he should stay far away from the Dragon Domain in the future, otherwise no one knew when the other side would come knocking on their door.

Of course, we'll have to wait until we've explored the Demon Ancestor's cave!

The group led by Palace Master Manghu was initially struggling to defend themselves against the relentless attacks of Nightmare Clouds, but now that Meng Fushan, Monk Lanyun, and Palace Master Leipeng have joined the battle, the pressure has immediately eased.

Although Wen Yan's four dragon lords did not directly take action, their mere presence on the side was a tremendous deterrent to the high-level Nightmare Cloud.

With so many Ghost Lords and Demon Lord level experts gathered together, the combined force is unprecedented. Although the Soul-Eating Nightmare Cave is extremely dangerous, it would be difficult to contain a group of such powerful individuals.

With a whoosh, the Splitting Demon Axe, the Heavenly Bamboo Sword, and the Startling Demon Blade swept past from time to time, binding more than a dozen powerful Nightmare Clouds in place. The three purple fox shadows floating around the Manghu Palace Master, as well as the Red Demon Ant Queen and other killing moves, all descended.

They had been suffering under the siege of these nightmares, but now, with this rare opportunity, they joined forces with Meng Fushan and the others to launch this combined attack, instantly annihilating more than a dozen powerful dark clouds within them.

"We cannot linger in battle. The restrictions within the entire Soul-Eating Cave are all controlled by the Nightmare Emperor. Other Nightmares are endless. This time, the enemy has obtained too much food. If we kill one batch, another powerful batch of Soul-Eating Nightmares will quickly emerge. If we want to enter the Demon Ancestor's Cave, we must kill the Nightmare Emperor!"

Without waiting for anyone else's consent, the Palace Master of Manghu reached out and summoned three small, exquisite purple fox shadows around him, which shrieked and darted into the depths of the cave.

Countless nightmare clouds followed behind them as the group of powerful warriors fought and retreated. In this world, apart from emperors, few forces could stop such a team.

The Nightmare Clouds fight in droves, fierce in nature, and their combined attack techniques are extremely formidable, but for the time being, there are no other members with exceptional combat power.

Although there were countless nightmares blocking their way, in the face of this group of powerful monarchs, the sheer number of them was of little use due to the lack of sufficiently strong individuals.

The four dragon lords did not make a move, but the combined aura of the seven old monsters in front was like a heavy sword that could break through anything, and they were invincible wherever they went.

Even ordinary restrictions couldn't stop the combined attack of the powerful figures. The numerous old monsters advanced with unstoppable momentum, and in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they arrived at a chaotic area of ​​stone pillars formed by gathering dark clouds, resembling a boundless and chaotic stone forest.

The stone pillars, varying in size, were all formed from the gathering of dark clouds. Meng Fushan casually clapped his hands, shattering several of these cloud-covered pillars. Screams erupted from within the exploding pillars, but the shattered areas quickly returned to normal.

With their lair under attack, countless nightmare clouds have come to hunt them down, appearing and disappearing mysteriously in this stone forest.

"Palace Master Manghu, find the Nightmare Emperor as soon as possible, otherwise we may be divided by the enemy's formation and fall into the predicament of fighting alone."

Wen Yan is also quite knowledgeable about formations. As a descendant of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon and the successor on whom Lu Xiaotian places high hopes, Wen Yan must not have any shortcomings in formations while cultivating herself. She can tell at a glance how powerful the formations here are.

Their group is indeed quite strong. Being divided into two factions, and with the opposing old monsters each harboring their own agendas, there's a real possibility of them being split up. The best approach right now is to act quickly and resolve the Nightmare Emperor problem before any internal conflicts erupt within the group.

"Rest assured, as a confidant of the Demon Ancestor Qiu Meng, I have some understanding of the powerful arrangements in his cave."

The Lord of Manghu Palace chuckled, made a hand seal, and three purple fox shadows beside him opened their mouths and spat out three streaks of purple light like swords, which then darted away into the distance like swimming fish.

The purple light moved about, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of dark cloud stone pillars were pierced one after another, revealing sword holes of varying sizes. After some probing, the three purple sword lights twisted together, forming a combined force that slashed fiercely upwards.

With a whoosh, the dark clouds above formed a huge light curtain, causing the purple light sword to freeze in place for a moment, unable to advance an inch.

Before the Palace Master of Manghu could give a signal, Meng Fushan and his group of six had already made their moves, unleashing a variety of weapons such as the Splitting Yuan Demon Axe and the Heavenly Azure Bamboo Sword, all of which struck the dark blue light barrier above their heads.

The azure light barrier above trembled, and with a hiss, the purple light sword, seemingly targeting a weak point, cleaved through it and pierced through. After breaking through the light barrier, it sped away, seemingly ignoring the chaos behind it.

The body of the Manghu Palace Master, who was originally among the old monsters, began to fade.

"Damn it." The Red Demon Ant Queen, the Water Banyan Ghost Mother, and the Jade Bone Ghost Lord were both shocked and furious. They were already extremely weak in front of Meng Fushan and Wen Yan and other Dragon Lord powerhouses, and had to be extremely careful in their actions. Now, the strongest of them, the Manghu Palace Master, had actually abandoned them and run away.

Looking back, it makes sense. Wen Yan's dragon party was too powerful. With two groups traveling together, even if they encountered valuable treasures later, Wen Yan's group would take most of them, leaving the remaining treasures for the four of them to divide. The Manghu Palace Master's understanding of the entire Demon Ancestor's Cave was probably only comparable to that of the Crimson Dream Demon Lord. After dealing with the Soul-Eating Nightmare Emperor, the biggest obstacle, there was no need to linger any longer. Dropping the three Red Demon Ant Queens was in his best interest.

Ideally, the Soul-Eating Nightmare Emperor would cause enough trouble for Wen Yan and her group. It doesn't necessarily have to hurt them; as long as these powerful figures can be held back for a while, it would be best for Palace Master Manghu.

Compared to the astonishment of the three Red Demon Ant Queens, Wen Yan and her group appeared calm and composed amidst the countless dark clouds surrounding them.

Although the Palace Master of Manghu was cunning and wanted to use them, he ultimately led them to the Soul-Eating Nightmare Emperor, and that was enough.

Even if there are many low-level Soul-Eating Nightmares, it would be difficult to stop anything in time.

"If the three of you don't want to die, then you'll be responsible for the low-level nightmares around you." As Wen Yan spoke, she reached out and summoned a golden halberd.

Wen Yan originally used the Golden Dragon Sword. After Lu Xiaotian, the Dragon Lord, left, he handed over control of the Dragon Clan Totem to her and passed on many of the wonders of the totem. In recent years, she has rarely taken action in the conquest of Seven Stacks Island, but her understanding of the totem has become increasingly profound.

Wen Yan also drew upon a portion of the totem's power to forge her own halberd.

This item was forged relatively recently, and in terms of power alone, it is not as powerful as her Golden Dragon Sword. However, it also depends on how it is used. If she were to join forces with Jin Tong, Wen Tingdao, and Gu Han, and wanted to unleash the power of the battle formation, she would need to use the power of the totem to control and guide it.

For the entire battle formation, the effect of her using the halberd was clearly greater.

The Red Demon Ant Queen was naturally happy to have the other party help her. She, along with the Water Banyan Ghost Mother and the Jade Bone Ghost Lord, also wanted to see what tricks the other party had up their sleeves.

In the previous Dragon Domain War and later on Seven Stacks Island, they had not yet fought against any powerful dragons. They still did not know the true strength of this Dragon Lord.

Judging from Wen Yan's aura alone, her pressure was extremely heavy. Even the Red Demon Ant Queen and the Water Banyan Ghost Mother were very wary of her, but not to the point of being particularly afraid. She seemed to be slightly weaker than Meng Fushan at this moment.

However, the three old monsters were all discerning and could sense that Wen Yan's powerful and domineering aura did not come entirely from her cultivation level, but rather from the oppressive feeling that came from her bloodline.

The opponent's cultivation level is slightly lower, and his foundation is relatively shallow. In terms of potential, let alone the few of them present, they can't even come close. Looking at the four realms, the opponent's bloodline is one of the top, and there are only two or three who can be compared with him, not even a handful.

The Dragon Clan has produced a Dragon Lord with the bloodline of a five-clawed golden dragon, and even a powerful expert at the Heavenly Dragon Realm. It seems like a sign of great prosperity for the Dragon Clan.

Previously, they were encouraged by the Immortal Realm, which only mentioned that there were probably a few Dragon Lords and Immortal Lord-level experts in the Dragon Domain. The Heavenly Dragon was far away in the Demon Realm, and the Demon Ancestor Qiu Meng, along with their group of ghosts and demons, also felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

However, the other party remained tight-lipped about the specific situation in the Dragon Realm. It now seems that the Immortal Realm is indeed harboring malicious intentions. Fortunately, that evil turbid dragon has already been annihilated, which can be considered as reaping what it sowed.

The dragons' overwhelming power was something no ordinary force could suppress. As long as they could leave safely, they didn't want to be enemies with the dragons again, no matter who caused trouble.

As Wen Ting made his move, Gu Han, Wen Tingdao, and Jin Tong all acted simultaneously.

The Thick Earth Emperor Abyss Blade, the Canglang Sword that stirs up raging waves, and the Wind and Thunder Twin Hammers—several completely different powers converged under the influence of the golden Fangtian Halberd at the head.

The golden halberd, though not the most powerful among them, acted as a kind of adhesive, perfectly bringing together the different forces.

When these forces converged, it seemed that quantitative change led to qualitative change, resulting in a kind of sublimation. They had become so powerful that even the Red Demon Ant Queen, the Water Banyan Ghost Mother, and the Jade Bone Ghost Lord were terrified.

The unparalleled combined attack struck the void. The aftershocks caused the surrounding dark clouds and stone pillars to collapse in patches. With a deafening roar, the void itself seemed unable to withstand the immense force, crumbling in large sections amidst the explosions. A piercing scream then erupted from within.

"Kill!" Wen Yan's entire body was stained with a layer of brilliant gold, exuding a fierce and majestic aura. Her exquisite face had an inexplicable sense of holiness, making people dare not have any thoughts of blasphemy.

Fangtian Halberd pointed again, and he and Jin Tong's group unleashed another wave of attacks, piercing into the collapsed void. From within came a fierce struggle and resistance.

The surrounding dark clouds formed from the Soul-Eating Nightmare were all summoned by something and rushed forward in a frenzy. The three Red Demon Ant Queens and the three led by Meng Fushan defended the perimeter. These low-level nightmare clouds were unable to break through the blockade of the six old monsters.

The struggle within the void rift grew weaker and weaker, and a solid, almost tangible, four-winged eagle-shaped dark cloud flew out in panic, fleeing into the distant sky without looking back.

Before he could fly far, Wen Yan's halberd, like a celestial being pointing the way, pierced his opponent's back with a single strike. As golden light burst forth, his body vanished into thin air.

The nightmare clouds that had been attacking frantically all around seemed to have lost their leader and scattered in all directions.

"The Soul-Eating Nightmare King has fallen?" The Crimson Demon Ant Queen couldn't help but feel a sense of unreality.

From the discovery of the Nightmare Emperor to his demise, Wen Yan made fewer than five moves. Among these four Dragon Lords, Jin Tong and Wen Yan were indeed very strong, but Gu Han and Wen Tingdao were relatively average.

The four of them working together could achieve such an astonishing level. No wonder the other side had been holding back their strength all along. Relying on the Dragon Clan's combined attack formation, they were like thunderbolts when they moved!
"Let's go!" Wen Yan led the group of powerful individuals forward.

After passing through the cave, we officially entered the cave of the Qiu Meng Demon Ancestor.

The cave looked quite bizarre, surrounded by a hazy atmosphere filled with seven colors of smoke and clouds: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and black. Instantly, Wen Yan and her group were also surrounded by the seven-colored smoke and clouds.

The surroundings were dreamlike, each wisp of smoke and cloud stirring up inexplicable emotions, seemingly drawing one into different dreamscapes. It was somewhat similar to the situation on Seven Stacks Island, but even more domineering.

"Is this the cave of the Dragon Dream Demon Ancestor?" Wen Yan looked at the Red Demon Ant Queen and the others.

“We old women aren’t entirely sure either. In the past, we could only come when summoned by the Demon Ancestor Qiu Meng. It wasn’t like this back then; perhaps the Demon Ancestor Qiu Meng later set up other restrictions within the cave, causing this change.” The Red Demon Ant Queens and the others shook their heads in succession.
