Become a fairy alone

Shi Peng and Shi Yu, who were always cautious in their words and actions in front of others, even found this way of getting along somewhat difficult to understand.

In their minds, even Ghost Lords and Demon Lords were always high above them. In the past, they dared not disobey in the slightest, for the slightest mistake could incur their wrath, the consequences of which they could not bear.

Not to mention someone like Lu Xiaotian, whose cultivation and strength are boundless. However, after spending some time with Lu Xiaotian, the feeling of being on tenterhooks disappears.

The other party wouldn't get angry for no reason, nor would they deliberately show any authority in front of these juniors; they were completely different from the old monsters they had encountered before.

At first, Shi Peng and Shi Yu were a little uneasy and incredulous, but now they have gradually gotten used to this way of getting along. However, the fact that Zhu Qi treats Lu Xiaotian as an equal and speaks without any restraint still makes them both speechless.

“You two have taken some risks during this time. Now that everything is settled, will you leave on your own, or come with us?” Lu Xiaotian looked at Shi Peng and Shi Yu.

"We are willing to obey the Dragon Lord's commands, and we beg the Dragon Lord to take us in!" Lion Peng and Lion Rain exchanged a glance and then bowed down without hesitation.

They already knew Lu Xiaotian's identity as the Lord of the Dragons, and they also knew that the reason his limbs were torn to pieces was because of the great battle with the Four Heavenly Emperors. Even his head was temporarily sealed in the Dragon-Slaying Guillotine. He would still have to be an enemy of the Immortal Realm in the future, so his future was uncertain.

If the two of them were to get involved in this great battle, they risked being annihilated if they were not careful.

In the past, they would have hesitated, and even if they agreed, it would have been because Lu Xiaotian and his group were too strong, leaving them no room to refuse.

But now, Lion Rain feels that following the other party is the best choice, and there is no need to go back to the old clan.

It is true that there are unpredictable risks in fighting against the Immortal Realm, but even after separating from Lu Xiaotian and the others and returning to the clan, they will still face all sorts of risks.

The lion-like monster who led them often drove them to do dangerous things. Several times they narrowly escaped death, suffered serious injuries, and were frequently reprimanded for it. Even when the lion-like monster was having his own troubles, he would often take it out on others.

In contrast, following Lu Xiaotian, although they experienced many battles along the way, they were generally safe and sound, and were not treated as dispensable pawns.

Especially during the chaotic battle in Yundu, Dongfang Yi and Luo Qian and several others successively lent them a helping hand.

They also obtained a top-tier cultivation technique from Lu Xiaotian. All the luck and treasures they gained during the battle ended up in their own hands. Not to mention powerful figures like Dongfang Yi, even Zhu Qi and Chi Min had no intention of taking advantage of them.

Compared to the other two, Shi Peng and Shi Yu were reluctant to leave. Following Lu Xiaotian, as long as they didn't die unexpectedly, they both felt they had a chance to glimpse a higher realm.

Lu Xiaotian nodded. Since the two were willing to follow, he would take them along as well.

Su Qing and Zhu Qi both advanced in rank. It would be better if they could stay in Black Bone City and cultivate in the Green Wood Sacred Abyss for a while, but Lu Xiaotian was not going to wait any longer.

Having defeated the Black Talisman Bone Emperor, Lu Xiaotian also collected a considerable amount of Nine Nether Weak Water. This was enough to provide Su Qing and Zhu Qi with the treasures they needed for cultivation, and stabilizing their realms during their journey wouldn't be a major problem.

Among the group, the Extreme Cloud Demon Lord hesitated repeatedly before choosing to stay in Cloud Capital, a place suitable for him, to strive for a higher realm. The fall of powerful figures such as the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor and the Six-Armed Cloud-Eyed Lion yielded him a considerable amount of treasure.

Furthermore, given Yun Yaozun's strength, even in a place like Yundu where it's suitable for hiding, he could conceal himself and escape if he encountered other powerful demon lords or demon kings.

Lu Xiaotian wasn't too worried about this. In fact, this clone, which had developed its own will after being transformed into a demon, was no longer that important to him. Now that his limbs had merged one after another, the lotus clone's spy planted in the Immortal Realm was enough for the time being.

On the way, they first picked up two disciples of the Crimson Dream Demon Lord, and then Lu Xiaotian led everyone to disappear into the vast night.

…………

Below the void, the waves surged endlessly, with various birds flying across the azure sea. Every now and then, various flying fish would leap out of the water, only to fall back into the sea with a splash. However, some were caught in the jaws of swooping birds and never had a chance to return.

The white clouds drifted and swirled, faintly forming a huge Tai Chi pattern, or like dragons slowly moving about.

A halberd, like a giant pillar supporting the sky, plunges into the vast ocean, its tip reaching straight into the clouds and disappearing into the void.

Several screams rang out, and the birds that had been flying earlier fled in all directions. On the previously calm sea, millions of dragons broke out of the water.

The dragon's roar emitted by the halberd reverberated outwards, and from the depths of the void, tens of thousands of dragons responded.

Within several colossal cities far from the coast, the howls of wolves, accompanied by the roar of dragons, soared into the sky, while from another direction, billowing dust surged. Mountains cracked open, collapsing and turning into stones of all sizes. As these stones rolled down, they transformed into countless Shishi tribesmen, their battle formations reaching the heavens.

The various demons of varying cultivation levels in the Crimson Moon Wasteland felt an immense and unparalleled aura surging towards them. Under this overwhelming pressure, their bodies couldn't help but prostrate themselves on the ground, trembling.

In that short time, more than a dozen dragon lords had passed overhead. Even though they knew the other party wouldn't easily attack them, the oppressive feeling from the depths of their souls still lingered, leaving them no choice but to be afraid.

A golden light flashed, and a golden dragon shadow entered the cave. Inside the main hall, Wen Yan transformed into human form, and the dragon lords Jin Tong, Gu Han, Yue Jifeng, Ying Xuanming, Wen Tingdao, Zi Luo, Ao Ming, Mu Ye Hongchen, Wu Mingyue, and the Black Dragon appeared one after another.

At this time, the number of Dragon Lords in the Dragon Realm had reached an astonishing twelve, making it the undisputed number one race in the entire Dragon Realm. Wen Yan and Jin Tong respectively cultivated the Origin of Laws 160,000 and 90,000 years ago.

Both being powerhouses at the origin of the laws, Jin Tong has surpassed Meng Fushan, whose combat strength is considerably greater than Meng Fushan's, who reached this level much earlier.

As for the Moon Palace Master who has cultivated the origin of space, he is no match for him if he does not use the Sky Heaven Cauldron.

Ji Ting, on the other hand, had once comprehended a trace of chaotic lightning power from Lu Xiaotian. The profound mystery of the boundary-breaking divine lightning was so great that even if Jin Tong unleashed his bloodline potential, he could not gain the upper hand. Ji Ting was considered a formidable opponent.

In the entire Dragon Domain, the only two who can surpass Ji Ting are Yan Ji, who has already left the Dragon Domain, and Wen Yan.

The dragon race's current prosperity has exceeded the limits they could have imagined before.

Besides the significant progress made by the Dragon Clan, other races also saw the emergence of powerful rulers, though in relatively smaller numbers. Sui Pojun of the Birch Flame Clan and Wu Gu of the Leaf Stone Clan were late bloomers, but only one from each of their respective clans successfully advanced to the next level.

Two members of the Dragon Wolf Riders, Hai Linglong and Hai Feng, advanced to higher ranks.

Kongtong of the Kongying Clan has once again successfully broken through to the Demon Lord realm.

One member of the Demon Dragon Clan has advanced to a higher level; it is Meng Yang, a relative of Meng Fushan.

However, after the Bat Clan produced two top experts, Yan Ji and Ji Ting, no other members of the clan advanced to the next level. Instead, several members, including Hu Xiulong, failed to break through to the Demon Lord Realm and perished in the calamities of heaven and earth.

The previously powerful Bat Shadow Fusion Formation was also damaged due to the deaths of Hu Xiulong and several others.

While some members of the Bat Clan have successively advanced in their primordial spirit and demonic body forms, the conditions for forming the Bat Shadow Fusion Heaven Array are extremely demanding; it's not simply a matter of reaching a certain level of cultivation. Sufficient trust and tacit understanding are also required, and their cultivation techniques must complement each other to some extent.

Just like wanting to enter the Demon Lord Realm, gathering the members to form the Bat Shadow Fusion Heaven Formation also requires luck.

Even so, the Bat Clan remains the second most powerful race in the Dragon Realm, second only to the Dragon Clan.

Even Ji Ting alone would be enough to intimidate a region, not to mention Yan Ji, whose Dao Seed is nearing perfection. With these two powerful figures present, in other realms, apart from those at the Emperor level, no one would dare to underestimate the Bat Clan in the slightest.

Those who are close to Lu Xiaotian include Luo Qing, Xiang Hua, Qing Li, and Lu Yuan, who later rose to prominence and successfully advanced in rank.

As for Yu Xiaoqiao, her cultivation level had already reached that point, but because of Lu Xiaotian's matter, her state of mind was not yet perfect. In the end, she could not survive the calamity of heaven and earth, and was only one step away from success.

Just as she was about to die, Yu Xiaoqiao used her lotus clone to block the fatal blow. The lotus clone then vanished into thin air, and Yu Xiaoqiao was also severely injured, falling into a deep sleep afterward.

Luo Ping'er, Mu Xia, Yu Ya, and the others were in a similar situation to Yu Xiaoqiao. They also had some mental deficiencies and failed to advance. It was Yan Ji who took action to protect the three of them and temporarily escaped disaster. Mu Xia and Yu Ya were unconscious, while Luo Ping'er could occasionally wake up, but she was extremely weak and had been bedridden ever since.

Yan Ji also suffered a certain degree of backlash for interfering with the calamities of heaven and earth, which prevented her thunder magic seed from being fully perfected. After so many years of accumulation, she was still just one step away from the Emperor Realm.

Kuang Ziyou refined pills according to each person's condition, and with Luo Qing continuously channeling life energy into them, their injuries were prevented from worsening. Kuang Ziyou, a fifth-grade alchemist, and Luo Qing racked their brains to keep them alive.

Only a few people around Lu Jiatian receive this treatment. If others encounter similar situations, Kuang Ziyou, Luo Qing, or Yan Ji are powerless to help.

Given Yanji's personality, she wouldn't bother with other people's problems.

Aside from Ji Ting, Yin Han, Hu Xiulong, and a very few others whom she considered confidants, the other members of the Bat Clan didn't hold much weight with Yan Ji. Moreover, after rescuing Luo Ping'er and the others, she was powerless to help Hu Xiulong, who had failed to advance her cultivation level. It was just that Hu Xiulong was unlucky.

Among the others, Huo Xiao, the Ice-Blooded Saint Body, and Kong Shan, who possessed the bloodline of the Peacock King, were able to successfully advance.

By now, the number of Dragon Lords, Demon Lords, and Demon Lords in the entire Dragon Domain has reached dozens.

Besides their bloodline talents, those who advanced in this realm also possessed exceptional comprehension. They had all emerged from countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood alongside Lu Xiaotian, sharing in a significant amount of fortune. They also benefited from the great upheaval in the world, as the Immortal-Demon Battlefield remained open for far longer than ever before.

Not only has the Dragon Realm's strength increased dramatically, but the Four Heavenly Courts, as well as the Demon Realm, Ghost Realm, and Monster Realm, will inevitably benefit from this trend as well.

Even Meng Yang, a relative of Meng Fushan, participated in the great battle against the army under Qiu Meng Demon Ancestor and the four Heavenly Emperors who personally led the immortal army to attack the Dragon Domain. Most of the other rising stars with top-notch aptitude remained at the Nascent Soul stage.

With its greatly enhanced strength, the Dragon Realm is no longer as cautious as before, and is becoming increasingly assertive in conflicts with other races.

The space outside the Dragon Domain fluctuates frequently, with other independent spaces appearing from time to time, and the space where the secret realm is located overlaps with that of the Dragon Domain.

Over the years, the populations of the major races in the Dragon Realm have grown rapidly. This has led to greater consumption of resources, and teams must be constantly dispatched to other places to explore and search for the whereabouts of the Dragon Lord's limbs.

When these external spaces overlap and one ventures into another's territory to explore, conflicts with demons and monsters are inevitable.

Lu Yuan, in particular, had been away from the Dragon Realm for too long in search of his father's remains. To avoid causing too much commotion due to too many dragons leaving the region, the other powerful Dragon Lords were confined to the Dragon Realm and forbidden from leaving without permission, lest they be exposed to the Celestial Realm's gaze too early.

However, Yan Ji, Lu Wushuang, Palace Master Lei Peng, Monk Lan Yun, and Xiang Kuang have already gone out to search for Lu Yuan.

The entire Dragon Realm was alarmed because Yan Ji sent a distress signal to the Dragon Realm. Perhaps the two places were too far apart, or the spatial fluctuations along the way were too intense.

There was no complete content; it was just a very simple signal that Yanji had agreed upon before leaving.

Yan Ji's strength is unmatched in the entire Dragon Domain, yet she still had to ask the Dragon Domain for help, which foresees that the enemy's strength has probably reached the Emperor level.

The enemy's strength was too great, so a powerful force had to be deployed. However, the entire Dragon Domain could not be wiped out. After a brief hesitation, Xiang Qingcheng summoned the strongest people in the entire Dragon Domain to discuss the matter, which led to the scene of so many Dragon Lords and Demon Lords gathering before her.

Before the Immortal-Demon Battlefield opened, the other major realms had been undergoing a long period of baptism by the aura of calamities, during which many powerful beings had fallen and relatively few had advanced to higher levels, resulting in a continuous decline in the overall strength of the realms.

The Immortal-Demon Battlefield has been open for a much longer period than ever before, and all realms have benefited greatly. Even though the Immortal Realm has also received a certain share of fortune during this Immortal-Demon Battlefield, it is still far from being able to compare with the enormous achievements made by the Dragon Domain.

If one were to witness the gathering of so many powerful figures from the Dragon Realm, one wonders what kind of sensation it would cause.

"The Bat Queen is in trouble now, and we must rescue her. We also need to allocate enough strong personnel. You are all the cornerstones of the Dragon Domain. Now let's discuss a plan and set off as soon as possible," Xiang Qingcheng said.

“Even the Bat Queen is in trouble; sending just one or two people would be suicide. If we’re going, we need to send more people,” Jin Tong said. (End of Chapter)
