Become a fairy alone

Nagi's spirit body can directly merge with the soul liquid, making it incredibly elusive and difficult to defend against in such a chaotic and dangerous situation.

In a short while, hundreds of Nagi Soul Spirits appeared around the three of them.

Each of them possessed strength at least at the level of a Law Demon Body, still far inferior to Lu Xiaotian and his two companions. Before Lu Xiaotian and Hunyuan Daozu could even make a move, Zixu Youying had already unleashed a slash, followed by a scream.

Amidst the crisscrossing blades, several Nagi Soul Spirits were instantly cleaved in two, their bodies shattering into large amounts of soul liquid that scattered across the ground.

"You beast, step back now!" the purple-robed ghostly figure roared, the powerful aura of the old demon of the Emperor level reverberating as he attempted to intimidate these Nagi Soul spirits with the pressure of a Demon Emperor.

Any demons with weak strength would be directly suppressed by this kind of pressure.

The individual Nagi Soul spirits before us are not weak, but their numbers are not many, and for the time being, they have not exceeded our capacity.

Zishu Youying did not want to get entangled with the other party; it would be best to intimidate the other party with her aura.

"It's useless. This level of pressure can't spread very far in the special environment of Nagi Dark Soul Cave. Nagi Soul Spirit is born in soul liquid and has extremely strong resistance to attacks or suppression of the soul."

Even the Dragon Lord's might couldn't have much of an effect on them. Attacking them directly with treasures would be more effective. Also, the treasures should not stray too far from the body, or they could be easily snatched away by the demons hidden in the soul liquid." The Primordial Dao Ancestor was quite satisfied with Zi Xu Youying's initiative and reminded him.

Although this old monster isn't very strong, he can still play a role for the time being.

The fact that the opponent was able to resist these Nagi Soul Spirits saved him a lot of trouble. It was a pity that the Witch Emperor and those Ancestral Witches did not come. Otherwise, with such a large group of them here, even if the opponent had made a plan in advance, they would not have been in such a passive position.

"I understand, of course." The divine sense that Zi Xu Youying had spread out had been completely eroded, and that strange aura was constantly trying to get into his body.

Controlling the treasure to leave the body requires a significant increase in the consumption of spiritual energy. At the same time, the treasure flying out of the body also relies on the connection of spiritual energy. Having already suffered losses before, he could easily see the problem.

Nagi Soul was completely unaware of death; those who rushed forward were successively killed, yet more continued to fall in droves.

In a short while, hundreds of Nagi Soul Spirits had been killed, but new Nagi Soul Spirits kept emerging from all around. Compared to other groups of demons, their numbers were not many, but they still gave people the feeling that they could not be killed off.

At this moment, Zi Shu Youying's divine sense was already significantly affected, and Nagi Soul Dharma Spirit's individual strength was also not weak. After Zi Shu Youying had killed several thousand of them in succession, he was already feeling a clear sense of strain.

"No, this won't do. I can't hold on much longer," the Shadowy Index said, panting heavily. "The soul liquid here is too strong in interfering with my divine sense. I can't handle it on my own."

The consumption of the power of laws is secondary; the key issue is that the divine sense is being severely restricted.

Although he was very restrained throughout, he kept the demonic sword in his hand the whole time and never let it leave his body.

However, with so many Nagi Soul spirits attacking from all directions, even though he deliberately didn't divert any extra divine sense, the sheer number of attacks during the battle still inevitably caused him to suffer some depletion.

This extremely conservative fighting style did indeed prevent his divine consciousness from being eroded to the greatest extent, but it also greatly reduced his deterrent effect on the outside world. Those Nagi Soul Spirits attacked from all directions and kept getting closer, threatening his physical body.

At this moment, Zi Xu Youying also needs to demonstrate its value. Not only does it need to satisfy its own defense, but it also needs to help Lu Xiaotian shield his surroundings. As a result, the pressure it bears increases exponentially.

In this unfamiliar and harsh environment, where the divine sense cannot leave the body, even an old monster at the Emperor level faces too many restrictions.

Once a large number of Nagi Soul Spirits get close enough, they can spew out poison gas that is even more corrosive than the Soul Liquid. The Nagi Soul Spirits have lived here for generations and have used this Soul Liquid as a base to refine powerful poison gas.

Zi Shu Youying was also overwhelmed for a time. Under normal circumstances, the poison gas that touched his body would not have much of an effect on him, but the normal consumption during the fight was unavoidable.

At first, Zixu Youying was able to maintain the situation, but later it became increasingly difficult.

Zishu Youying needs to demonstrate his value, but he cannot overexert himself. He will not place all his hopes on Lu Xiaotian and Hunyuan Daozu. Preserving a certain amount of his own strength is the most reliable approach.

Once he overexerts himself, it's hard to say what will happen when he faces other crises later.

Unable to resolve the trouble on its own, Zi Xu Youying dared not continue to expend energy and naturally had to seek help from Lu Xiaotian and Hunyuan Daozu.

Lu Xiaotian didn't intend to make a move; he simply reached out and sent a bottle of pills flying out.

Zi Shu Youying quickly took it into her hand, scanned it with her divine sense, and her face immediately lit up with joy.

He didn't know much about alchemy, nor did he know what kind of pill it contained. However, just smelling the fragrance of the pill made him feel comfortable all over, and his consciousness seemed to be elevated. The feeling was indescribable.

"It is said that the Dragon Lord's mastery of alchemy is unparalleled in the realms. Seeing it today, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved. I wonder what kind of pill this is, that its effect on restoring consciousness is so strong?" Zi Shu Youying's tired consciousness felt inexplicably comfortable, and she couldn't help but ask Lu Xiaotian.

"It was just a casual creation, based on some ancient pill formulas with some modifications. It's unlike any other pill I've ever made before, and it doesn't have a name yet, but the effect should be pretty good," Lu Xiaotian said.

"It's not just okay, it's incredibly effective." Zi Shu Youying swallowed a pill directly. Her previously weak spiritual sense was recovering at a steady pace. For a while, the number of Nagi Soul Dharma Spirits around her did not decrease, and Zi Shu Youying was no longer as panicked as before.

This bottle of pills is enough for him to hold on for a while, allowing them to stall for time. As for the troubles they might encounter later, Lu Xiaotian and Hunyuan Daozu will eventually have to find a way to solve them.

"Here's another bottle of Spirit-Strengthening Golden Light Pill, which can enhance the resilience of one's divine sense, preventing it from being easily eroded. However, it conflicts somewhat with the previous pills, so even in an emergency, you should wait at least half an hour before taking it." After a slight hesitation, Lu Xiaotian handed the other party another bottle of pills. "Thank you, Dragon Lord." Zi Shu Youying chuckled. Survival was the priority now; conflicts could wait. Regardless, he would take the pills first.

Lu Xiaotian's primordial spirit is so strong that it is beyond comprehension. He, or rather most old monsters at the Emperor level, are not like Lu Xiaotian. Most of them only experience a decline in strength after their primordial spirit has problems.

Especially for someone like him who was previously demoted, the damage was mostly due to injuries to his primordial spirit.

He has spent most of his time repairing his primordial spirit over the years. Even though he was lucky enough to recover his original realm, his primordial spirit has not actually reached its former peak state.

With his cultivation level, the number of pills that could work for him was pitifully small, and those that met his requirements in alchemy were even rarer. The pills that could be taken from Lu Xiaotian's hands were naturally extraordinary.

The pill he had just taken was not only restoring his depleted spiritual energy, but it was also repairing a minor hidden injury from before. Even though the repair was not extensive, it was enough to surprise him.

After enjoying the benefits, Zi Shu Youying couldn't help but feel a bit more anticipation for Lu Xiaotian.

It seems that the other party has far more good stuff than he imagined. He hadn't expected that Lu Xiaotian's alchemy skills would reach such a level, even able to repair his own hidden injuries to his primordial spirit. It was truly an unexpected surprise that he could gain such benefits while resisting these Nagi Soul Dharma Spirits.

If the other party has better pills, it seems he doesn't need to go to those dangerous places to seek opportunities. With just these pills and the unique environment of the Chaos Void Realm, he can easily sense the aura of the laws and the Great Dao, which is enough to restore him to his peak condition, or even surpass it.

The only problem now is that Lu Xiaotian's enemies are too strong. Being by Lu Xiaotian's side might be much more dangerous than those dangerous situations.

As for the Primordial Dao Ancestor, Zi Xu Youying had no hope for him and could not offer him enough benefits. The troubles he faced did not seem to be much less than those faced by Lu Xiaotian.

At this moment, he not only received the replenishment of pills, but also the confidence to persevere. Compared to the aimless fighting before, at least he can now see some hope.

There are no worries for now, as the pills will run out.

The surrounding spirits attacked relentlessly, oblivious to life and death. While these spirits were individually quite strong, they did not form a tight battle formation. Their attacks were relatively scattered and not concentrated. This piecemeal approach posed little threat to Zi Xu You Ying, and its main purpose was to wear her down.

"The demons here are clearly quite powerful, but they don't seem to be very intelligent. If we could form a battle formation, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to withstand them long ago." With the pressure temporarily reduced, Zi Xu Youying still had the energy to talk to Hunyuan Daozu.

“We must not be careless. These spirits are generally stronger than when I passed through this place. Under normal circumstances, their intelligence is indeed not high, and they do not usually have a unified command. However, once an Emperor-level spirit is born, it will form a unified command.” The Primordial Dao Ancestor’s expression remained solemn. “Judging from the current situation, there are already signs of this.”

"Then, what should we do?" Zi Shu Youying was startled.

He had fought against these Nagi Souls for a while and knew their strength very well. Although their numbers were not too many, their strength had generally reached the level of Law Demon Body. In the outside world, that would be the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal. If they were to unite into a formation, their combat power would undoubtedly be extremely astonishing.

Even if there were powerful emperors leading the way, he still couldn't bear to imagine that scene. Even if the power of the emperor-level magic spirit was weaker, just thinking about the situation made his scalp tingle.

Ordinary Grand Luo Golden Immortals were no threat to them, but thousands gathered in a very small area created a terrifyingly powerful force. Even with his strength, he would find it difficult to escape once entangled in such a situation.

"There's no other way but to take it one step at a time." The Primordial Dao Ancestor shook his head, his face ashen, but secretly he transmitted his voice to Lu Xiaotian, "If the experts from the Five Elements Primordial Sect don't come directly after us, we're afraid we'll be stuck in this place for a long time."

"You mean you've made some arrangements targeting the Five Elements Primordial Sect?" Lu Xiaotian's eyes flickered slightly. He felt that this situation was normal. He had already begun to suspect it. Given the other party's cunning and strength, they shouldn't be in such a passive position.

"We are somewhat prepared, but we only have one chance. We need a strong opponent to appear, otherwise we can only tough it out. Dragon Lord, you should hurry up and refine the array spirit. That will give us a better chance of winning. Leave the rest to me."

The Primordial Dao Ancestor didn't care what Zi Shu Youying thought. Making the other party show an anxious expression could confuse the enemy to some extent. However, Lu Xiaotian was already clearly getting impatient with him. Even if Zi Shu Youying was dissatisfied, there was nothing he could do with his cultivation level. He still had to obediently follow them.

Given Lu Xiaotian's cultivation level, he truly has the ability to leave if he wants to. The Primordial Dao Ancestor must win over Lu Xiaotian; otherwise, he alone is far from sufficient to deal with the entire Five Elements Primordial Sect.

“Okay.” Lu Xiaotian readily agreed. He wasn’t afraid of a powerful enemy; he was afraid of seeing no hope at all and wandering aimlessly through this dangerous place.

After learning about the other party's plan, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel that this guy was cunning. He had kept it so well hidden from both him and Zishu Youying all the way, so the people from the Five Elements Mixed Origin Sect probably hadn't noticed either.

Lu Xiaotian didn't ask what specific methods the other party used, since they hadn't actually used them. Asking too much might not be of any use.

"Roar!" A violent roar came from below the soul liquid.

"Damn it!" Zi Shu Youying's face turned ugly. Just what he feared had come to pass. The moment the Primordial Dao Ancestor finished speaking, the old monster with the Emperor's position in the Nagi Soul Dharma Spirit appeared. This was simply leaving no way out for anyone.

"Go inside the Soul Liquid." Suddenly, the Primordial Dao Ancestor reached out and lifted a white jade magic boat, which flew out lightly. In the blink of an eye, its size expanded to several feet in length, and the white jade magic boat emitted a layer of shimmering jade light.

“Nagi Soul Spirit is even more at ease in the Soul Liquid. Wouldn’t it be like walking into a trap if we went down now?” Zi Shu Youying was completely unaware of Hunyuan Daozu’s plan, so she naturally questioned this seemingly unreasonable behavior immediately.

"If the situation doesn't look good later, I'll consider leaving," Lu Xiaotian said coldly.

"Now that we've come this far, even the former Supreme Heavenly Dragon has arrived. I'm afraid the Dragon Lord has no room to retreat." The Primordial Dao Ancestor snorted coldly. They were putting on a show. The old monsters of the Dragon Clan and the people of the Five Elements Primordial Sect might not necessarily be able to see this side, but it wasn't entirely impossible.

"Is that so?" (End of Chapter)
