Become a fairy alone

Lu Xiaotian wasn't in a hurry. The space where his lotus clone was located was not only enclosed by itself, but also quite far from here, so there would definitely be some interference. In terms of its strangeness, it was not as strange as Lu Xiaotian's main body's space.

After just one attempt, Lu Xiaotian figured out the truth of the matter over there.

It's unrealistic to directly intervene in the battle on the lotus clone's side in a short time; it requires some time to build up strength. Fortunately, he discovered the situation there in time through the gray crystal, and the lotus clone can still hold on for the time being, so there is still room to salvage the situation.

Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel fortunate. Fortunately, he had unexpectedly discovered this gray crystal, which had a far greater effect than the previous gray halo. With the interface projection restricted, it could directly project his methods over long distances.

Otherwise, if the discovery is delayed or if his power cannot be transferred, the lotus clone might actually be unable to withstand the test over time.

Although his clone was strong, it was still no match for his main body at the same level. The five opponents he was facing were also formidable. The leader, the One-Eyed Silver Fly, had an exceptionally talented Soul-Devouring Demon Ape bloodline and had even cultivated the origin of the laws.

Judging from the momentum of their attack, they all practiced inherited techniques that matched their bloodline, indicating that their clan's heritage was also extraordinary. The other three were also quite strong, and they were well-controlled in their siege. Even though the lotus clone's swordsmanship was exceptional, it was too disadvantageous for him to fight five opponents alone.

Even if you can't beat the opponent in this situation, you can still be honorable in defeat.

The lotus clone's face was ashen as he fought against the five demons with the help of the Sacred Soul Sword Stele. If he hadn't just discovered the Sky Heaven Cauldron and known that this spatial artifact was of great significance to his true self, he would never have ventured into this dangerous place so easily, leading to this predicament and being besieged by the enemy.

Since he advanced to the Immortal Lord level, it had been a long time since he had fallen into such a sorry state.

Despite their repeated attempts to break through, they were unable to do so. They thought they would most likely perish here, but unexpectedly, they suddenly sensed the divine consciousness fluctuations emanating from the original body.

The lotus clone remained calm, but inwardly sneered. It seemed its luck was pretty good. After the main body finished gathering its power, it wondered what kind of expressions these arrogant fellows would have.

No longer needing to worry about escaping, the lotus clone felt completely at ease, free from any lingering concerns. Looking at the five enemies before it, it realized that their supernatural abilities were quite commendable.

Faced with a life-or-death predicament, the sword intent, which had stagnated for some years since cultivating the origin of the law, showed signs of loosening again.

With a slight movement of his divine sense, the lotus clone slowly condensed into a sword monument in the void. The lotus clone stood on the sword monument, his robes fluttering, and his sword intent slowly spread outwards.

"They're not running away anymore?" The one-eyed silver fly looked at the lotus clone with surprise in its huge eye.

Judging from the stance the lotus clone is now taking, its sword intent is spreading outwards without reservation. Its powerful aura has shocked the five demons present. However, given that the opponent is unleashing its power in this situation, it seems that it has given up on the idea of ​​breaking through.

"I guess after failing to break through several times and seeing no hope left, they decided to give up entirely. We made it clear beforehand that I wanted their primordial spirit."

The Soul-Devouring Demon Ape chuckled, its eyes filled with greed as it looked at the lotus clone. Not only was the clone's primordial spirit powerful, but the sword technique it cultivated also exerted immense pressure on the soul.

Even he, a demon whose essence lies in devouring souls, was quite suppressed by his sword intent. If he could devour and refine the opponent's primordial spirit, he could absorb the opponent's strengths to a certain extent, allowing his demonic arts to achieve a breakthrough on the original basis.

"My wife and I only need the other party's sword tablet," the Poisonous Sun Gu Eagle said in a hoarse voice.

"I only need the body!" The Chaotic Corpse King looked at the lotus clone as if it were a priceless treasure. "It would have been better if you had done this sooner. You wouldn't have had to travel so far. You could have stayed and fought us to your heart's content. Even if you died in battle, you could have fought to your heart's content."

"You're laughing too soon. The outcome is still uncertain. You few can't kill me," the lotus clone said calmly.

"Even at this point, they still dare to speak so arrogantly!" The Soul-Devouring Demon Ape laughed and looked around. "This human immortal lord is so arrogant, he thinks our methods are not strong enough. It seems we need to step up our efforts and make sure he doesn't look down on us."

"They are indeed stronger than us, but they're just being stubborn. It's normal for them to vent their anger before they die."

None of the one-eyed silverfly creatures took the lotus clone's words seriously. The other party's sword intent was indeed remarkable, especially the Holy Soul Sword Stele, which was enough to be a family heirloom for any clan.

Even among the experts of the same realm in the outer realm, there are very few who can compare with them, but this is not a fair duel. The five of them present are all extraordinary. No matter how strong the opponent is, they can forget about defeating the five of them. The lotus clone is no exception.

"No need to waste words with him. Things could get complicated if we wait too long. We need to hurry up and find the treasure. Let's join forces and kill him first. Who knows what other changes might happen if we drag this out?"

Before the Poisonous Yin Gu Diao finished speaking, it opened its mouth and spat out a black crescent moon that slowly rose from the void, with astonishing poisonous gas spreading outwards from the crescent moon.

At the same time, the Poisonous Sun Gu Diao unleashed a black poisonous sun. Compared to the gloomy aura of the waning moon, this poisonous sun appeared much more masculine and domineering.

When the two merged, yin and yang intertwined, and the resulting power caused even the One-Eyed Silver Fly and the Soul-Devouring Demon Ape, two powerful beings at the source of the laws, to take notice, their eyes filled with great apprehension.

The Chaotic Corpse King was deeply moved. His heart skipped a beat. Among the five present, the Yin-Yang Gu Diao couple had similar cultivation levels to him, but their combined strength was enough to leave him far behind.

The five of them only had a verbal agreement regarding the distribution of the spoils. Once they actually defeated the lotus clone, he, being the weakest among them, would likely be at a disadvantage.

However, having fought this far together, it's unrealistic to just walk away now. If all else fails, we'll just have to take a smaller share later. Making some concessions is better than getting nothing at all.

With a wave of his hands, the Chaotic Corpse Lord unleashed a surge of corpse energy, forming a massive altar in front of him.

"The Gu Diao couple are right. With the appearance of the Sky Heaven Cauldron, the spatial fluctuations it causes will inevitably become stronger and stronger. The longer the delay, the more likely it is to attract other people, and then there will be many more changes." Before the Soul Devouring Demon Ape finished speaking, a huge demon ape phantom suddenly sprang up behind him as he pounded his chest with both hands.

"The Dharma of Heaven and Earth?" The lotus clone glanced at the other party in surprise, then breathed a sigh of relief after a closer look. This phantom of the demonic ape was not the true Dharma of Heaven and Earth, otherwise it probably wouldn't have lasted until the main body came to the rescue.

However, it also possesses a certain charm. For a demon lord to be able to unleash such divine power with his cultivation level shows his amazing talent and potential.

"Demon Ape Devours Souls!" Soul-Devouring Demon Cloud roared, and the phantom of the demon ape opened its maw, unleashing an astonishing devouring power. The one-eyed silver fly and the Yin-Yang Gu Eagle couple beside it gasped in shock. Even though the immense devouring power wasn't aimed at them, it still caused their souls to tremble.

If it were a one-on-one fight, even the One-Eyed Silver Fly wouldn't be confident of victory. As for the other three, faced with such domineering methods, they would only have the fate of fleeing in defeat.

Shocked, the demons were invigorated. Now, they unleashed their full power, and killing the even more astonishing human swordsman was a piece of cake.

Faced with the full force of five demons, the lotus clone was in dire straits in a very short time. However, it was under this unprecedented pressure that the sword intent within the lotus clone burst forth, and the whole person entered a state of clarity in the face of battle.

The first to descend were the black sun and waning moon created by the Yin-Yang Gu Diao couple working together. They contained a strange interplay of Yin and Yang, and also emitted an alarming amount of poisonous gas.

Even a Celestial Lord-level expert would never want to face such an opponent.

In such a dire situation, the lotus clone reached out and unleashed a sword strike. The sword light appeared incredibly agile and ethereal, seemingly without any lethality, like a graceful arc sweeping across the void.

With a single, light stroke, the sword arced down in the area between the dark sun and the waning moon, slicing through the air with a soft hiss, as if cutting through a piece of cloth. The previously ferocious and seemingly irresistible poison gas instantly dispersed, unable to advance any further.

The Yin-Yang Gu Diao couple's expressions changed drastically. With their combined efforts, this Yin-Yang interaction method could compensate for each other's weaknesses. Coupled with the terrifying poison gas, they could even withstand experts at the source of the laws.

Those who are stronger than them are unwilling to take such a deadly attack head-on. Even if they are forced by circumstances, they will test the waters in the early stages and go through an adaptation process.

The fact that the lotus clone could break their combined attack with a single sword strike without any probing was both shocking and somewhat damaging to their confidence.

Meanwhile, the Soul-Devouring Demon Ape and the One-Eyed Silver Fly, among others, were also shocked. They had all cultivated the origin of the laws, but they were far from reaching the other's level.

Fortunately, there were five of them working together. If even one person were missing, or even just the relatively weaker Chaotic Corpse King, they probably wouldn't have been able to trap and kill the enemy here.

The lotus clone sliced ​​through the opponent's Yin-Yang combined attack with a single sword strike. At the same time, the sword's edge did not pause at all, flashing briefly in the void before continuing to slash towards the towering, majestic phantom of the demonic ape.

The demonic ape remained in its inhalation posture, patting its chest with both hands, and a thick layer of purplish-gold demonic energy cloud emanated from its body, like an unbreakable armor covering its entire body.

The lotus clone's sword strike had truly shocked them, making them realize how terrifying the opponent was. The Soul-Devouring Demon Ape had used all its strength from the beginning, not seeking merit but avoiding mistakes. Facing such a powerful enemy, even the slightest carelessness could lead to serious consequences.

If he is injured, his four allies who were temporarily fighting alongside him may become his death knell when the spoils of war are distributed afterward.

The enormous phantom of the demonic ape thrust out with both palms, its thick hands covered with a layer of purple-gold gauntlets, its force as devastating as a mountain.

Clang! The sword light slashed down, and the originally graceful sword light suddenly split into countless tiny flying swords. The giant ape phantom was still in a swallowing posture. Before it could react, the tiny flying swords, with the help of this swallowing power, flashed into its mouth and disappeared.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Ape let out a painful cry. He had cultivated this great divine power, similar to the Law of Heaven and Earth, using a special technique passed down in his clan. In the past, he had been invincible against other enemies. Even the One-Eyed Silver Fly, whose cultivation was slightly stronger than his, could not overpower him before he was exhausted.

Now, facing the lotus clone, he suffered a great loss under his sword strike.

If it weren't for the four of them, including One-Eyed Silverlight, helping him out, the opponent could have easily taken advantage of the situation to severely injure him, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The opponent's swordsmanship was truly unbelievable. In the eyes of the Soul-Devouring Demon Ape, such a level of swordsmanship should not exist in a Celestial Lord-level expert.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Ape suffered a great loss and staggered back, immediately creating distance between itself and the lotus clone. The encirclement of the five demons was instantly breached.

A hint of doubt flashed in the one-eyed silverfly's eyes. Logically speaking, the lotus clone had broken through their tight encirclement in a short time with its swift and decisive methods, and should have taken this rare opportunity to escape.

Even if they might not be able to escape completely, there's still some hope. However, judging from the lotus clone's posture, it shows absolutely no intention of escaping. This is rather puzzling.

The Chaotic Corpse King and the others were also completely bewildered; anything unusual could arouse their vigilance.

Those whose strength has reached the level of a lotus clone would never do anything pointless; their first reaction is that the other side may have received strong reinforcements.

However, upon closer reflection, it seems that this area is still their territory. They have been preparing to explore this place for tens of thousands of years. The other party, as a powerful figure from the Immortal Realm, seems completely unfamiliar with this place upon arrival.

Out of caution, the demons still searched the surroundings with their divine senses, but found nothing unusual.

"It seems the other party is determined to die. In that case, we have no choice but to grant his wish."

The one-eyed silver fly blocked the lotus clone's last-ditch attack, saving the Soul-Devouring Demon Ape and the others from danger.

Then the one-eyed silverfly laughed heartily. Even though the opponent's current performance exceeded expectations, it was mainly due to his amazing swordsmanship. However, the more amazing the power of such swordsmanship, the greater the consumption of the source of the law.

Having fought for so long, they had gained some understanding of the lotus clone. Although the opponent's fundamental laws were strong, they were not yet strong enough to overwhelm the five of them.

Such a strong momentum cannot last. The opponent will inevitably be unable to maintain such a sharp offensive indefinitely. Once they survive this wave, their strength will eventually give way to decline.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Ape, the Yin-Yang Gu Eagle couple, and the Chaotic Corpse Lord were all seasoned veterans. Without uttering a single word, they attacked again with perfect coordination. (End of Chapter)
