Become a fairy alone

"Who's coming with me?" Ji Ting asked, standing to one side.

"The Bat Queen is busy with Long'er's affairs, and Luo Qing is busy taking care of Yu Ya and the others' injuries, so I have to go in their place," Xiang Qingcheng said.

"The Dragon Queen's strength is already considerable, but the Dragon Realm needs her presence even more. We can handle this kind of matter. The Bat Queen's difficulties are mostly due to Lu Yuan. The various races of the Dragon Realm are originally one."

In this critical moment, the Dragon Clan should not restrain themselves as before; even if they are exposed, they cannot care about such things. Led by Jin Tong, six Dragon Lords will be removed, along with Ji Ting, Fellow Daoist Meng, and Palace Master Yuekong. Wen Yan said, then looked at Palace Master Yuekong and Meng Fushan.

Wen Yan was the strongest among those present, but she needed to command the entire Weilong Army. Only she could more thoroughly mobilize the dragon totems. The Dragon Domain needed to retain its strength to resist the invasion of other emperor-level powerhouses. Before receiving definite news from Lu Yuan, Wen Yan had to stay and oversee the situation.

“I have to go, whether it’s for the Bat Queen or for Lu Yuan. They’ve been gone for too long. I can’t be of much help to the first powerful figure we encounter, but I can still be of some use if we encounter more difficult symptoms.” Xiang Qingcheng shook her head.

Ji Ting's brows relaxed. Regardless of the final outcome for Meng Fushan and the Moon Sky Palace Master, the manpower mobilized this time had already exceeded his expectations.

"I'll go with you then. If we run into trouble in the Dragon Domain, Elder Meng will be able to play a greater role with the Demon Dragon Clan. Unlike me, who is so unrestrained," said the Moon Sky Palace Master.

“I was originally planning to make the trip, but since Brother Yuekong said so, I won’t argue with you.” Meng Fushan nodded.

"With so many of us going there, we can even run into an Emperor-level expert." Jin Tong chuckled.

With the addition of the Moon Palace Master and Ji Ting, they have three experts at the Law Origin level, and none of the other Dragon Lords are weak. Even if Xiang Qingcheng's own cultivation is slightly inferior, her mastery of talisman arrays is extraordinary. In a real fight, ordinary Dragon Lords would be no match for Xiang Qingcheng.

"We must not be careless in anything. Listen to the advice of Lord Moon Sky Palace, Ji Ting, and the Dragon Consort along the way. Before we reunite with the Bat Queen, we should try to avoid conflicts with other powerful forces."

"Although we have experience defeating the Evil Heavenly Dragon and the Dragon Dream Ancestor in the Dragon Domain before, it was mostly thanks to the Dragon Clan's totem. Without the power of the totem as an aid, even with your considerable manpower, it will still be very dangerous when you encounter a slightly stronger Emperor-level expert," Wen Yan solemnly warned.

Jin Tong is indeed strong, but he is too warlike by nature and is not suitable to be a team leader at all.

It's good that Xiang Qingcheng is here. When they have differing opinions, Ji Ting and the Lord of the Moonlit Palace might not be able to persuade Jin Tong, but Xiang Qingcheng is no problem.

"Understood, I'll go wherever the Dragon Princess points," Jin Tong replied.

"Let's not delay, let's set off now." After reaching a consensus, Xiang Qingcheng transmitted her voice to Luo Qing. Then, nine beams of light shot into the sky, heading straight towards the outside of the Dragon Domain.

…………

Wisps of pale purple-gold flames floated all around.

The ground is rugged with rocks, and the surrounding area is undulating. The extremely irregular rock walls are made up of pieces of purplish-gray stone, with cracks of all sizes as dense as a spider web.

Faint, purplish-gold flames kept shooting out from the cracks.

Then, six figures appeared from a distant cave and fled towards this place at top speed.

One of the men was a burly, slightly thin man who looked around as he fled, seemingly searching for another way out.

A series of sharp cries erupted from behind, the sound of flapping wings mixed with a ferocious and bloodthirsty aura, making the fleeing men's scalps tingle.

In one of the passages in another direction, two more eagle demons covered in black feathers fled in panic, and similar commotion could be heard in the other two passages.

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed; their situation was becoming increasingly dangerous.

This is an extremely special place, like the unfathomable depths of the earth, filled with cracks of all sizes, jagged and interlocking.

These fissures can stretch for tens of thousands of miles in some places and are only an inch or so in others. They are filled with strange rocks, and even ordinary stones could be easily slipped into them with their cultivation levels.

However, the strange rocks here are incredibly hard, and they contain an astonishingly powerful Burning Sun Purple Divine Flame. If they were to forcibly enter the rocks, their speed would inevitably be greatly reduced. The number of Burning Sun Purple Divine Flames inside varies.

If you're unlucky and encounter too many Blazing Purple Flames, even a Celestial Lord or Demon Lord could be burned to death.

Lu Yuan had encountered a similar situation before and nearly lost his life. At the critical moment, Yan Ji arrived and struck him with a palm strike from afar, providing him with some assistance and significantly increasing his speed, allowing him to escape the predicament.

The two people who were originally traveling with Lu Yuan were not the current group; they had both been burned to death by the Burning Sun Purple Divine Flame before him.

Yan Ji also encountered other troubles, and they were no less troublesome than his. The two only had a very brief encounter before being separated. He didn't know how Yan Ji was doing.

Although Lu Yuan was worried, he didn't have a good solution for the time being. He himself was still in danger, so he had no way to find Yan Ji.

Although Yan Ji saved him, Lu Yuan was still burned by the Burning Sun Purple Divine Flame, and his injuries have not yet fully healed.

These demons, like Lu Yuan, were after his father's limbs.

Lu Yuan had no memory of his father, only that he had seen his father's portrait in the Dragon Realm. Although his father was no longer alive, his legend had been passed down in the Dragon Realm.

When their fathers are mentioned, elders like Jin Tong, Ji Ting, Yue Kong Palace Master, and Wen Yan, whose strength is unfathomable, will unconsciously show expressions of either reverence or sadness.

When Lu Yuan was a child, he felt that all the elders doted on him. Later, when he grew up and became sensible, he realized that this doting and protection did not come from him, but from his father.

Later, he learned about the origins of the Dragon Realm, his father's many deeds, and the final battle against the Four Heavenly Emperors. From that time on, Lu Yuan began to become taciturn, and he often heard Aunt Yan and Aunt Wen say that he was becoming more and more like his father.

Seeing the Dragon Realm grow ever stronger, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel proud of his father. This was the world his father had created and the place his father had defended with his life. A sense of mission also unconsciously crept into Lu Yuan's heart.

His comprehension and bloodline talent were both extremely amazing. He fought many battles with demons who migrated from other nearby spaces and successfully advanced to the Dragon Lord realm through tempering.

After his strength greatly improved, Lu Yuan's desire to go out and find his father's remains grew stronger.

However, his idea did not receive the support of the other elders, so he left a letter and went out alone, unknowingly wandering outside for nearly 30,000 years.

His experiences over the years have given him a thorough understanding of the dangers outside, and he has come to appreciate just how difficult it was for his father to have built the Dragon Domain to its current size. Lu Yuan's respect for his father has reached an unprecedented level.

His adventures over the years have certainly been meaningful. In addition to his own significant improvement in strength, he has also indeed obtained information about his father's whereabouts.

It is certain that other demons witnessed this within the Purple Flame Gorge, but were swept away by the flame waves during the chaotic battle. Lu Yuan himself also felt that incredibly powerful feeling, which was connected to his bloodline. It must be his father's limb.

Perhaps it's just one limb. But this is the closest he's ever been to his father.

Having obtained concrete information, Lu Yuan has been exploring the Purple Flame Gorge for the past few years.

However, this place is extremely dangerous. The Immortal-Demon Battlefield has been open for much longer than ever before, creating a large number of powerful individuals. More and more demons and monsters have also received the information and are coming from different places one after another. In addition, the natives of the Purple Flame Gorge have made the competition here extremely fierce and cruel.

Among the other five people traveling with Lu Yuan, there were two humans, one demon, one ghost, and one monster, all of whom had reached the Sovereign level. Their strength varied, and if Lu Yuan had not been injured, he could have easily suppressed any one of them.

He still has a lot of Burning Sun Purple Divine Flame remaining in his body, and his injuries have not yet recovered. Among these people, he can only be ranked in the middle level for the time being.

The six of them together formed an extremely powerful force, but they were still forced to flee in a sorry state by the massive swarm of Flame-Scaled Flying Lions behind them.

The opposing tribe's leader was at the same level as them; even a low-level Flame Scale Flying Lion could condense totem power, and when combined, they could spew forth the Burning Sun Purple Divine Flame. Even at their level, they couldn't withstand the relentless attacks. They could only fight and retreat, constantly shifting their positions.

The two vulture demons that escaped from another passage were clearly exhausted from being chased for too long, and their speed was far from its peak. The Flame-Scaled Flying Lion behind them was getting closer and closer.

The two vulture demons, their eyes filled with panic, desperately tried to approach Lu Yuan and his companions, attempting to divert the trouble and relieve their own pressure. Lu Yuan and his group, of course, wouldn't let them succeed.

The two exhausted vulture demons would only cause them trouble and wouldn't serve any real purpose. Lu Yuan and his group immediately changed course and fled in another direction.

"No!" The two vulture demons' hopes were dashed, their eyes filled with despair. A swarm of Flame-Scaled Flying Lions unleashed a torrent of Burning Sun Purple Divine Flames. The vulture demons fought back with all their might, but with their remaining strength, they were utterly powerless to avert the crisis. In a short while, they were reduced to ashes by the Burning Sun Purple Divine Flames. Lu Yuan and his companions felt a chill run down their spines at the sight.

Even though this great upheaval created many powerful individuals, those who could ascend to the throne were still extremely rare when placed within the broader context of several realms. These two vulture demons, seemingly unharmed, were driven to such a desperate state of exhaustion, ultimately meeting their tragic end.

In terms of cultivation, they might not be much stronger than their opponents. If they can't find a way to escape and let the situation continue, they will probably end up in the same situation sooner or later.

Boom! Just as Lu Yuan and his group were fleeing, the stone wall on the left suddenly collapsed, forming a huge vortex of flames, from which a tremendous suction force emanated. Lu Yuan, who was relatively close, was the first to be caught in the vortex and, caught off guard, was pulled into it by a tremendous force.

Before he was injured, he could easily resist this force, and now, given some time, he could also resolve it. However, with swarms of Flame-Scaled Flying Lions chasing after him, he obviously wouldn't have that time.

Lu Yuan took a breath. It seemed that he would have to pay a price. Just as he made up his mind, a long whip swept over him. He instinctively wanted to resist, but found that the whip was not hostile at all. It was just wrapping around his arm.

"Grab it!" a gentle voice rang out.

Lu Yuan looked up in astonishment and saw that it was Yan Feiyu, the woman in the green dress who had already escaped some distance, who was extending a helping hand.

"Thank you!" Lu Yuan reached out and grabbed, using the pull of the whip to escape the vortex of flames.

In the blink of an eye, a large number of Flame-Scaled Flying Lions rushed out from the other two passages. After fleeing for so long, they did not know how many Flame-Scaled Flying Lions there were or where their nests were. They were just running around aimlessly, bumping into things like headless flies.

"Let's all think of a way, share our resources, and see if we can turn this danger into safety. If we all keep hoarding our own things, I'm afraid none of us will escape, and we'll all be worn down and die here," said the Nine-Section Frost Centipede Demon, who was currently the strongest among them, in a deep voice.

“There are Flame-Scaled Flying Lions everywhere, there’s no way to escape, and we can’t fight the entire enemy clan. What can we do?” said the purple-robed ghost ape.

"Whether it's useful or not, feel free to voice your opinions. If you have absolutely no ideas, then shut your mouth! If you can't control yourself, don't blame me for being impolite." The Nine-Section Heavenly Frost Centipede Demon glared coldly at the other party, inviting him to offer his opinions, not to pour cold water on him.

The purple-robed ghost ape shuddered, and although it was not happy about it, it kept its mouth shut.

"I do possess a Blazing Flame Divine Barrier, which can absorb all kinds of flames, including the Burning Sun Purple Divine Flame. However, using this item is extremely difficult and requires a sacrifice of considerable strength and in relatively good condition," the Silver Silkworm Demon said in a deep voice.

"A powerful being of the highest rank as a sacrifice?" The Nine-Section Frost Centipede Demon frowned and asked, and then the others also looked over.

“Not bad,” the Silver Silkworm nodded.

As soon as he finished speaking, the powerful figures present quickly distanced themselves. Yan Feiyu and another man in a white scholar's robe also retreated to the side, clearly wary of others suddenly attacking them.

In such a perilous environment, it is necessary to remain vigilant, regardless of what others are up to.

The Nine-Section Frost Centipede Demon's eyes flashed with ferocity, seemingly searching for suitable prey. Anyone in the group who was in poor condition or weaker was acceptable as a sacrifice. These creatures, however, reacted quickly enough. (End of Chapter)
