Become a fairy alone

Chapter 5932 Falling into the Trap

Lu Xiaotian was the first person to make the Witch Emperor feel inferior in terms of primordial spirit. Although he was inwardly impressed, the Witch Emperor did not show any abnormality on his face.

Lu Xiaotian calmly put away the gray crystal. After getting his hands on it, he was certain that it had a deep connection with the gray halo. However, with so many people around, he couldn't study it for the time being and would have to wait until there were no outsiders around.

Lu Xiaotian then turned his attention to the six pieces of tortoise shell that were of different sizes and were in ruins.

These tortoise shells were clearly unusual. Even with the Witch Emperor's immense power, when he entered one of the shells with his divine sense, he was unable to clearly see the situation inside.

Although the opponent's primordial spirit was not as powerful as his, it was by no means an ordinary person. Ordinary emperor-level powerhouses were far inferior to the Witch Emperor.

With a hint of curiosity, Lu Xiaotian reached out and grabbed three pieces of tortoise shell. Regardless of whether he could study them thoroughly in time, he wanted to keep them under control first to avoid any trouble later.

Lu Xiaotian's divine sense entered one of the tortoise shells, and he was immediately plunged into darkness. He vaguely sensed some unusual aura inside. He searched for these unusual auras with his divine sense and soon found several jade-colored light spots of different sizes in this darkness.

After a considerable amount of effort, I made contact with one of the points of light, and then a flood of information rushed into my mind.

The images consist mainly of fragmented fragments, depicting a desolate and chaotic battlefield. Within them lie numerous extraterrestrial demons and dragon skeletons, including the remains of a Heavenly Dragon Realm expert, quite similar to those of Zi Xu You Ying.

It seems that the dragon skeletons collected by Zixu Youying are indeed related to the information provided inside.

Lu Xiaotian speculated that the information recorded on the original tortoise shell should have been complete, but some accidents happened later. After it was forcibly broken from the outside, the information inside was also missing and scattered in different fragments, making it incomplete.

It was truly remarkable that Zixu Youying was able to find the dragon's remains based on this information; it's likely that the other party had other information to assist them.

Then Lu Xiaotian's divine sense began to chase after the other jade-colored light spots. These light spots reacted and moved at an astonishing speed. It was quite difficult for Lu Xiaotian's divine sense to capture them for a while. No wonder the Witch Emperor seemed to be making little progress; he had probably encountered similar troubles.

However, as long as it was useful enough, Lu Xiaotian was not lacking in patience and continued to pursue the jade-colored light spots at a leisurely pace.

After much effort, Lu Xiaotian witnessed an extremely shocking scene: several demonic blades converged and suddenly slashed into the depths of the void, then opened a portal amidst a surge of demonic light.

On the other side of the portal was a blurry light and shadow. Even with Lu Xiaotian's divine sense, he couldn't make out what was on the other side. However, the mysterious and extremely powerful aura inside made his primordial spirit tremble and filled him with an unprecedented desire.

Lu Xiaotian had dealt with the Demon Realm quite a bit, and even personally killed the Ancient Demon Emperor, so he was naturally familiar with the Boundless Demon Blade.

It seems that the portal was opened with the Boundless Demon Blade. Behind this portal, there seems to be an aura that can allow the Seed of the Great Dao to continue to improve. Lu Xiaotian's current cultivation level is limited for the time being. If nothing unexpected happens, he can only rely on the accumulation of time.

At this moment, another possibility was seen in this jade-colored light spot.

Based on what Zi Xu Youying said earlier, the other party mentioned the secret of the world-suppressing artifact. Could it be related to this?
The aura of the Boundless Demon Blade emanating from the jade-colored light was no less powerful than that of the Creation Jade Disc at its peak. It must have taken the combined power of the world-suppressing artifacts within the four Demon Emperors to open it.

All we could see were scattered fragments, without beginning or end, and we didn't know where to go to use this method to open the portal.

Lu Xiaotian had a sudden thought: perhaps capturing other jade-colored light spots could solve these mysteries.

Within the space of the tattered tortoise shell, the number of jade-colored light spots was unknown, some of which were hidden very deeply. Even with Lu Xiaotian's divine sense, they could not be detected intermittently, making it difficult to find them in a short time.

Lu Xiaotian glanced at the Witch Emperor, whose eyes betrayed his surprise. He had clearly gained something as well, though he didn't know exactly what the Witch Emperor had seen.

The jade-colored light spots were extremely cohesive. Lu Xiaotian tried it, and even using his divine sense alone, he couldn't disperse them. This meant that for the time being, there was no need to worry about the Witch Emperor erasing the information left inside the tortoise shell using the same method. There was, however, the possibility of exchanging tortoise shells with the other party later.

Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor were both engrossed in the information provided by the tortoise shell, but they did not let their guard down regarding the outside world.

After all, being in this mysterious and strange space, the information they received was unprecedented. With their cultivation level, they could not afford to be careless in the slightest. Any mistake could lead to serious consequences.

Zi Xu Youying remained obediently to one side, while Jin Mu Kuangxiao and Feng Hou Yaohuang were even more respectful, not daring to breathe loudly next to these old monsters, for fear of displeasing Lu Xiaotian or the Witch Emperor and affecting their inspection of the tortoise shell.

As for the more distant places, the Xiaokong Ant King and his wife, along with the two Heavenly Emperors, had long since vanished without a trace. The enemy hadn't even been able to take care of the demon ant swarm, leaving only a large number of demon ants scattered throughout this space. Led by several powerful ant demon lords or some generals with primordial spirit bodies, they dispersed and retreated in different directions.

With no other threats to them for the time being, Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor felt reassured and continued to use their divine sense to search for the jade-colored light spots inside the tortoise shell.

The space inside had many tearing points. Apart from capturing two points of light at the beginning, the process of searching for and chasing the jade-colored light points was not so smooth.

"Something's not right!" After his divine sense traveled through the space for a while, Lu Xiaotian suddenly sensed that in the pitch-black void, a spatial array was vaguely taking shape. A huge suction force, almost irresistible to Lu Xiaotian, was acting on his divine sense.

Lu Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat. He was already unable to retract this divine consciousness, so he immediately adopted the tail-cutting tactic, trying to sever this part of the divine consciousness to avoid harming his main primordial spirit.

However, things were far more complicated than he had imagined. With his cultivation level and the strength of his primordial spirit, he was unable to extricate himself for a time. A strange aura, like a maggot clinging to a bone, climbed over him from within the spatial array, giving Lu Xiaotian no chance to escape.

With his primordial spirit restricted, Lu Xiaotian's body stiffened. He then discovered that the situation on the Witch Emperor's side was similar, or even worse than his.

Zi Xu Youying, who had been standing quietly to the side, looked at Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor with a questioning gaze.

"How dare you!" the Witch Emperor roared, his eyes widening as he glared sharply at Zi Shu Youying. "You old man, are you courting death?" "I don't know what the Witch Emperor means by that?" Zi Shu Youying's tone suggested he was completely bewildered.

"Don't think that just because you've trapped me and the Dragon Lord in this way, you've found an opportunity. Tell me honestly how you broke free from the divine consciousness restraints, and I will forgive and forget about it afterward." The Witch Emperor took a breath.

Lu Xiaotian forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart and looked at Zi Xu Youying again, realizing that he had underestimated this old monster.

It seems that while the other party was concealing some information within the spatial ring, they were also setting a trap for him and the Witch Emperor, pretending to be under duress, but actually trying to lower their guard.

Then, using the rather shocking information inside the tortoise shell as bait, Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor, confident in their high level of cultivation, and having not yet encountered anything that could threaten them in this mysterious space, relaxed their vigilance somewhat.

They just didn't expect the trap set by Zixu Youying to be so deep, mainly because those messages were indeed quite attractive to them.

At first, the two were quite wary, only managing to catch one or two relatively easy jade-colored light spots without noticing anything unusual. Zi Xu Youying also showed no signs of making a move, so Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor naturally felt much more at ease.

Neither of them expected that a crisis would quietly take shape in this seemingly safe situation. There was a special array restriction inside the tortoise shell that was designed to target divine sense. Once entangled by it, neither Lu Xiaotian nor the Witch Emperor could easily escape.

"I don't know what the Witch Emperor is talking about." Zi Xu Youying shook his head, seemingly still wary of the Witch Emperor. As he spoke, he slowly retreated, widening the distance between them.

"Very well, don't think that such methods can get you out of the way of me and the Dragon Lord. Once we have the time, we'll make sure you die a horrible death." The Witch Emperor's eyes were gloomy, and he said nothing more.

"The Witch Emperor has targeted me several times, and I have no way to stop him. However, with the Dragon Lord here, the Witch Emperor will certainly not be allowed to do as he pleases. Does the Dragon Lord agree?" Zi Xu Youying looked at Lu Xiaotian.

"The trap you set was indeed hard to guard against, but the Witch Emperor and I were caught in it for a moment. Even in this state, it is not something you can covet. Originally, as long as you were willing to do things honestly, the previous grudges would have been wiped clean. I did not expect you to be so ungrateful. You are courting death." Lu Xiaotian said calmly.

"If I want to regain my full strength, or even go further, I will have to rely on myself. Even if I follow you, the Supreme Heavenly Dragon, and even if I find treasures in this space, it will not be my turn."

"Having received your help before, I did indeed intend to follow you for a while. After all, this mysterious space is far too dangerous, and the situation outside is even more turbulent and chaotic. Working under you would offer some protection. However, the fact that you and the Witch Emperor are cooperating so well and willing to give me this opportunity is another matter entirely."

Zi Xu Youying suddenly changed his expression, gave a sinister smile, and revealed an unprecedented killing intent in his eyes. He then glanced at Zi Mu Kuang Xiao and Feng Hou Yao Huang.

"The Witch Emperor and the Dragon Lord have already been affected by my methods. Their primordial spirits are restricted, and they are now unable to move. You two go and take their lives. After you've accomplished this, I will help you cultivate the origin of the laws!"

Upon seeing the purple-eyed demon, the Wind-Hound Demon Emperor's expression changed drastically. It was clear that Zi Xu Youying was not confident in his abilities, which was why he had sent the two of them forward. If anything went wrong, they would be the first to die.

It seems that Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor were indeed restricted, otherwise Zi Xu Youying would not have been so arrogant. However, no matter how much restriction the opponent was subject to, he was still an Emperor-level expert. Even if he only retained a little bit of combat power, once he retaliated, it would be something that the two of them could not easily withstand.

The conditions offered by Zixu Youying were tempting enough that neither Zimu Kuangxiao nor Fenghou Yaohuang wanted to take the risk.

"Senior, the Witch Emperor and the Dragon Lord are too powerful. We two juniors dare not take the risk." Purple-Eyed Mad Demon said with a forced smile. The fact that Purple Line Shadow helped the two of them cultivate the origin of the law is shocking enough if it were to be spread. In the past, Purple-Eyed Mad Demon and Wind-Hou Demon Emperor would not have dared to think of such a thing.

However, having witnessed the wonders of the treasures here firsthand, the Purple Guard Shadow was not an exaggeration.

But even the best treasures are useless if you're not alive to use them. If even Zi Xu Youying wasn't confident, how could Zi Mu Kuang Xiao and Feng Hou Yao Huang dare to do it?

"You fear the Witch Emperor and the Dragon Lord, but aren't you afraid of me?" Zi Xu Youying's expression darkened.

The strongest members of the Que'e Purple Moth had already perished in the previous battle. After a fierce fight, the moth swarm was collected by him and had fallen into a dormant state. Forcibly waking them up now would not be easy to control, and individually, they did not have enough strength to threaten Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor.

Purple-Eyed Mad Demon and Wind-Hurting Demon Emperor were both quite strong and would have been perfect as swordsmen. However, I didn't expect these two guys to be so cowardly that they dared to disobey my orders.

"This..." Purple-eyed Mad Demon and Wind Hou Demon Emperor were in a dilemma. If this matter were to be accomplished, the benefits they would receive would be unimaginable. However, the risks of the whole matter were too great. The greater possibility was that they would be directly wiped out by Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor.

"Since you have given your orders, senior, how could we dare to disobey?" Purple-eyed Mad Demon and Wind-Hou Demon Emperor exchanged a glance, then slowly approached Lu Xiaotian and the Witch Emperor.

However, after taking only a few steps, the Purple-Eyed Mad Demon and the Wind-Hurting Demon Emperor suddenly fled frantically in different directions, one to the left and one to the right.

"You bastards!" Zi Shu Youying was furious. He never expected that these two would be so bold as to openly disobey his orders.

Given the mysterious and dangerous nature of this space, even though the Purple-Eyed Demon and the Wind-Hurting Demon Emperor possessed considerable cultivation and strength, it would still be extremely difficult for them to survive.

"You ungrateful wretch!" Enraged, Zi Shu Youying struck out with a palm at each of them. The palm shadows, though arriving later, reached their destination first, catching up with them instantly.

The Purple-Eyed Mad Demon and the Wind-Hound Demon Emperor, their faces ashen, each summoned a heavy shield or unleashed a powerful axe.

Amidst the deafening explosion, violent vibrations of the laws spread outwards.

Both the Purple-Eyed Mad Demon and the Wind-Hunting Demon Emperor coughed up blood and were sent flying backward, but they continued their frantic escape despite their injuries, without stopping for a moment. (End of Chapter)
