I am a fairy in Journey to the West

"Then may I ask, are you a human?" a celestial lord asked.

Xue Baochai looked at the immortal master and nodded, saying, "That's right, I am a human, a genuine human."

Upon learning that Xue Baochai was human, the immortal lord immediately cupped his hands and said, "Then please forgive my intrusion, but may I ask for your guidance? There are no humans in my Wind and Thunder Great World. I wonder how the immortal powers and magic of humans differ from ours?"

"Uh..." Xue Baochai was stunned for a moment. Upon seeing this, Feng Yizhi immediately rebuked the immortal master, "Such rudeness is not the way to treat guests!"

The immortal master bowed and hurriedly thanked Xue Baochai, saying, "I was impolite, please forgive me, Your Excellency."

Xue Baochai waved her hand and said frankly, "I am not good at the way of combat, and Fellow Daoist Lei Huaqing of Yuanlei Immortal Mansion can testify to this."

At this point, Xue Baochai raised her hand and said to the Zhang Tianying generals sitting in the distance, "They are all immortals who have become saints through their physical bodies. If the Immortal Lord is willing, they can compete with the Immortal Lord."

The immortal lord was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and then said, "If I were to have a mere soldier fight me, I would inevitably be suspected of bullying the weak."

"It's alright," Xue Baochai said with a smile. "It's just a friendly exchange of ideas, nothing more."

Upon hearing this, the Immortal Lord consulted the seven Dao Lords. The seven Dao Lords had also been thinking the same thing, so Dao Lord Xuanfeng, Feng Yizhi, said directly: "Since your esteemed envoy has spoken, then Dingzhou, you shall have a duel with the divine generals. Remember to stop when you have made your move and do not take anyone's life."

Feng Dingzhou was delighted and immediately bowed, saying, "I will obey your decree."

Xue Baochai then asked the divine generals over there, "Which of you would like to spar with Immortal Master Feng Dingzhou?"

Instantly, a young divine general stood up and bowed to Xue Baochai, saying, "Reporting to the military advisor, your subordinate Wang Zhen'e wishes to learn a thing or two from the Immortal Master Feng Dingzhou."

Xue Baochai nodded and smiled, "Alright, you must be careful."

Wang Zhen'e cupped his hands and said, "Yes, please rest assured, Military Advisor, I know what I'm doing."

After saying that, Wang Zhen'e stepped onto the jade platform in the middle and took out the Eight Treasures Armor from his mustard seed magic treasure and put it on his head.

Then Feng Dingzhou got up and leaped onto the jade platform.

Looking at Wang Zhen'e, who was three meters tall and clad in eight-treasure armor, Feng Dingzhou immediately felt a sense of pressure.

The realm divisions of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao, the Five Elements Heavenly Dao, and the Profound Law Heavenly Dao are all the same: Profound Immortal, Golden Immortal, and above that is Great Awakening Golden Immortal.

These immortal lords are cultivators among the Golden Immortals who have comprehended great supernatural powers. Therefore, although their cultivation level is still that of a Golden Immortal, they are completely different from ordinary Golden Immortals.

Feng Dingzhou cupped his hands in greeting to Wang Zhen'e and asked, "Fellow Daoist, are you ready?"

Wang Zhen'e said, "I'm ready. Immortal Lord, please enlighten me."

Feng Dingzhou laughed and said, "Please make the first move, fellow Daoist, so that people won't say I'm bullying the weak."

"Really?" Wang Zhen asked, "Let me make the first move?"

Feng Dingzhou nodded and said, "Of course it's true. With so many people watching, would I lie to you?"

"Alright." Wang Zhen'e nodded, then gripped the hilt of the Seven Treasures Blade with his right hand. Since it was just a sparring match, he didn't draw the blade, leaving it in its sheath.

The instant Wang Zhen'e nodded, his body suddenly vanished in a flash, activating the Eight Treasures Armor's 'Void Escape'.

Wang Zhen'e's sudden disappearance caused a gasp of surprise from the surrounding area. Even the seven Dao Lords above sat up straight at this moment, but they could still see Wang Zhen'e's figure.

The seven Dao Lords were, after all, Great Enlightened Golden Immortals. They only saw Wang Zhen'e reappear behind Feng Dingzhou three breaths after he disappeared.

"This is... the technique of escaping into the void?" Feng Yuanhua, the Daoist Master of Extreme Wind, exclaimed in surprise.

The moment Wang Zhen'e appeared behind Feng Dingzhou, he raised his Seven Treasures Blade and struck Feng Dingzhou in the back.

But in an instant, a gale suddenly appeared around Feng Dingzhou. The gale swirled in the air and sent Wang Zhen'e flying.

"It's the Whirlwind Stance." A celestial master from the Extreme Wind Immortal Mansion called out the name of this technique, and the Whirlwind Stance was one of the great divine abilities that Feng Dingzhou had comprehended.

But Wang Zhen'e's Seven Treasures Blade bypassed the gale, and its scabbard slammed heavily onto Feng Dingzhou's back with a thud.

"Ouch!" Feng Dingzhou cried out in pain, and immediately fell forward to the ground, grimacing and unable to get up for a long time.

Within a realm of Heavenly Dao, the number of Great Evolutions is finite, which is the law. One standard for attaining the Great Awakening Golden Immortal Dao Fruit is whether one has mastered a law.

Although Golden Immortals are still far from comprehending and mastering the laws, they can still comprehend them, and the various divine powers that come from comprehending the laws are called 'great supernatural powers'.

'Supernatural powers' are the power of heaven and earth that one naturally comprehends when one's cultivation reaches a certain level, while great supernatural powers are the power comprehended from the laws of heaven.

After being knocked to the ground by the Seven Treasures Blade, Feng Dingzhou did not get up for a long time, only groaning and crying out in pain.

The Supreme Wind Daoist Feng Yuanhua glanced over and was surprised to find a crack on Feng Dingzhou's spine.

"What a powerful blade." A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Lei Daojun's eyes.

The Wind-Riding Daoist said, "Did you all understand that slash just now? Wang Zhen'e was swept away by the swirling gale, but the slash still hit Feng Dingzhou."

Lingfeng Daojun nodded and said, "I see it. It seems to be empowered by a force, but I can't see through it."

The other Dao Lords all looked at the Seven Treasures Blade in Wang Zhen'e's hand with solemn expressions. They couldn't see through the power it held. They never expected that a mere soldier would be equipped with such a powerful weapon. Pangu Heavenly Dao was indeed well-prepared.

With a flick of his finger, Daoist Jifeng sent a beam of immortal light down upon Feng Dingzhou.

The next moment, the bone injury on Feng Dingzhou's back was instantly healed, and he stood up from the ground. He turned around and bowed to Daoist Jifeng, saying, "Thank you, Daoist."

Daoist Jifeng laughed and said, "You lost."

Feng Dingzhou sighed. He was quite magnanimous. He turned around and cupped his hands to Wang Zhen'e, saying, "Fellow Daoist, your swordsmanship is excellent. I concede defeat."

Wang Zhen'e had just gotten up from the ground and chuckled, saying, "The Immortal Lord's gale is no slouch either; it made me dizzy."

Feng Dingzhou took it as a compliment and simply smiled before returning to his seat.

But what Feng Dingzhou didn't know was that Wang Zhen'e wasn't flattering him; after all, the Eight Treasures Armor had the 'evasion' buff.

His swirling gale could ignore any attempt to dodge and send Wang Zhen'e flying; it was indeed very powerful.

After Feng Dingzhou stepped down, Wang Zhen'e put the Seven Treasures Blade back into his hand, then looked up at the cultivators of the Wind and Thunder Great World around him and asked, "I wonder if there is any other Immortal Lord who would like to step forward and offer some guidance?"

"I'll do it." As soon as the words fell, a bolt of lightning struck the jade platform.

Wang Zhen'e looked closely and saw that the person who came was a woman, wearing a feather robe and with her hair tied up with a hairpin.

The woman cupped her hands and said, "I am Lei Qing'e from the Thunderclap Immortal Abode."

Wang Zhen'e bowed respectfully, then asked Lei Qing'e, "May I ask, Immortal Master, shall I make the first move?"

Lei Qing'e extended her hand and smiled, "Please."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhen'e no longer held back and leaped into the air, slashing at Lei Qing'e with his sword.

But Lei Qing'e remained motionless as she watched Wang Zhen'e disappear. In an instant, Wang Zhen'e appeared above her and slashed her back with his sword.

Just as Wang Zhen'e's Seven Treasures Blade approached Lei Qing'e, hundreds of bolts of lightning suddenly erupted around Lei Qing'e.

"A thousand thunderbolts strike!"

"I didn't expect Sister Qing'e to use her most powerful move right from the start."

Amidst the surge of lightning, Wang Zhen'e's body suddenly dodged away from Lei Qing'e, but the Seven Treasures Blade in his hand fell to the ground.

All the immortal lords of the Wind and Thunder Great World were shocked to see this, especially Feng Dingzhou, whose eyes widened in surprise.

"He actually dodged Sister Qing'e's 'Thousand Thunder Strike'!" exclaimed a celestial master from the Thunderclap Immortal Palace.

Feng Dingzhou was also astonished, because he had fought Lei Qing'e several times before, and each time he was unable to completely avoid the Thousand Thunderbolts. Even if he was not directly defeated, he would be severely injured.

Only now did Feng Dingzhou realize that Wang Zhen'e hadn't been flattering him; his swirling, piercing wind that could send Wang Zhen'e flying was indeed powerful. Thinking this, Feng Dingzhou immediately sat up straight. It seemed that in this world, everything had its counter.

Lei Qing'e looked at Wang Zhen'e, who was unharmed in the distance, with surprise in her eyes. But she quickly calmed herself down and immediately cast a divine lightning bolt to suppress the Seven Treasures Blade on the ground. Then she formed a hand seal, and with a flash of lightning under her feet, she appeared above Wang Zhen'e's head in an instant.

"Lightning Release." Wang Zhen'e narrowed his eyes. At this moment, Lei Qing'e exerted her power again, and lightning rolled around her, forming a lightning net that covered Wang Zhen'e.

"It's a net of thunder that covers the sky."

"Now Wang Zhen'e has nowhere to hide, doesn't he?!"

Lei Qing'e first laid down a sky-covering lightning net to cover Wang Zhen'e, and then unleashed the 'Thousand Thunder Strike' to strike down on Wang Zhen'e.

Wang Zhen'e calmed his mind, glanced at the suppressed Seven Treasures Blade, then clenched his fists and leaped into the air, rushing straight towards Lei Qing'e.

In that instant, a scene appeared in the eyes of the seven Dao Lords: under the dense onslaught of the sky-covering lightning net and the myriad strikes of lightning, not a single divine lightning bolt struck Wang Zhen'e.

Instead, Wang Zhen'e dodged and weaved, perfectly avoiding every attack from the Sky-Covering Thunder Net and the Thousand Thunder Strike, before finally landing a punch on Lei Qing'e.

In the eyes of the surrounding immortal lords and disciples of various immortal mansions, they only saw Lei Qing'e's body burst with lightning, and then she was sent flying backward. After the lightning dissipated, she landed heavily below the jade platform.

As for Wang Zhen'e, he landed on the jade platform unharmed and easily opened his fists.

The entire venue fell silent for a moment. After about ten breaths, Lei Qing'e, with blood at the corner of her mouth, grabbed the edge of the jade platform and got up. Looking at Wang Zhen'e on the platform, she said, "What a powerful fist! What level is your physical body?"

Wang Zhen'e cupped his hands and smiled, "Steel and iron-like bones."

Lei Qing'e exhaled, then stood up straight and said decisively, "I lost."

However, her injuries were not serious. Lei Qing'e was a Golden Immortal and a manifestation of Thunder Qi, so her immortal body was naturally not weak. She did not suffer the same kind of injury as Feng Dingzhou, who was struck by the Seven Treasures Blade.

Lei Qing'e returned to her seat and began to cultivate her inner energy. At this moment, Wang Zhen'e picked up the Seven Treasures Blade again and looked at the immortal lords around him, his meaning self-evident.

Feng Dingzhou and Lei Qing'e dared to come out on their own initiative because their strength was among the top of all the immortal lords.

Therefore, seeing that both of them had been defeated, most of the immortal lords did not step forward.

Seeing this, the seven Dao Lords exchanged glances. Then, Dao Lord Biaofeng's gaze fell on one of the people below. "Qingsu," Dao Lord Biaofeng called out.

An elderly man with white hair and a long beard stood up and bowed to Daoist Biaofeng, saying, "Qingsu is here."

Daoist Gale laughed and said, "Go and experience it for yourself."

The old man said calmly, "As the law dictates."

Then the old man took a step forward, and with a flash of lightning, he landed directly on the jade platform. He then bowed to Wang Zhen'e and said, "Immortal Abode of Gale, Lei Qingsu."

Wang Zhen'e returned the greeting with a cupped hand, and then said, "Senior, please make the first move this time."

Lei Qingsu didn't stand on ceremony and nodded with a smile, "Okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of lightning appeared on the jade platform, followed by a thunderous roar that reached everyone's ears.

Then, Wang Zhen'e's body flew off the jade platform, and his feet landed on the ground, staggering back dozens of steps.

At this moment, all was silent, but three breaths later, all the immortal lords and disciples of the Wind and Thunder Great World immediately stood up and cheered enthusiastically.

Wang Zhen'e stood there stunned for a long time before letting out a sigh of relief after hearing the cheers around him. He then bowed to Lei Qingsu.

Lei Qingsu stood still, smiled and returned the greeting, then leaped and landed on his seat.

At this moment, the seven Dao Lords stood up at the same time, and the cheers around them immediately stopped.

Then, Jifeng Daojun said to Wang Zhen'e, "The gods and generals of Pangu Heavenly Dao are indeed heroes. Lei Qingsu is the immortal lord of my Wind and Thunder Great World who has experienced the most tribulations and is the most senior. I didn't expect that even he could only be a god general. The strength of a god general is truly amazing."

Wang Zhen'e knew that this was Jifeng Daojun trying to ease the tension. These words were genuine flattery, because even Wang Zhen'e himself didn't know how he lost. There was just a flash of lightning before his eyes, and then he was off the stage.

Therefore, Lei Qingsu must have been saving face for him, so he didn't put in much effort. If he had been more serious, he could have definitely hurt him.

Wang Zhen'e cupped his hands and said, "Daoist Jifeng, you flatter me. Immortal Lord Lei Qingsu's strength is unfathomable. I admire him greatly. I have lost this battle."

Wang Zhen'e then returned to his seat, took off his Eight Treasures Armor, and sat down. All the gods and generals around him showed no joy or sorrow, and no emotion could be seen on their faces.

Upon witnessing this scene, the hearts of Daoist Jifeng and the others sank. These divine generals were not only powerful in skill and their armor and magical artifacts were extremely powerful, but their temperaments were also so transcendent. They were truly much stronger than him, Fenglei Tiandao.

Because Pangu Heavenly Dao has many divine generals like Wang Zhen'e, but his Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao does not have many people like Lei Qingsu.

After three battles, the probing was over. The power of Pangu's Heavenly Dao was stronger than they had imagined, and the seven Dao Lords were now more confident.

There were no further sparring or duels; instead, the normal celestial banquet continued as scheduled.

Three days after the celestial banquet ended, the seven Dao Lords, representing the Wind and Thunder Great World, signed an alliance with Zhang Tianying, represented by Xue Baochai. The main content of this alliance was to jointly resist the attack of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao and to provide mutual support when necessary.

After signing the alliance, the seven Dao Lords returned to their respective immortal abodes to take charge, leaving the various immortal masters to continue accompanying Xue Baochai.

So, in the following time, Xue Baochai visited the seven great immortal mansions accompanied by the immortal masters of the various immortal mansions, toured the various blessed lands and grottoes of the Fenglei Great World, and finally attended a farewell banquet at the Fenglei Immortal Palace before leaving the Fenglei Great World and returning to the Wuding Realm.

Upon returning to Wuding Realm, Xue Baochai handed the covenant to Huang Feng Dasheng. Huang Feng Dasheng was very pleased with the covenant and said to Xue Baochai, "You have fulfilled your mission well. Very good, very good. I, the Grand Commandant, will remember your merit."

Xue Baochai cupped her hands and smiled, "Thank you, Grand Commandant."

Then Huang Feng Dasheng said to Wang Zhen'e, "You also made a contribution this time. You defeated two immortal lords by yourself, greatly enhancing the prestige of my Pangu Heavenly Dao. I will also remember your contribution."

Wang Zhen'e, who had remained expressionless even when defeated, beamed with joy upon hearing this and immediately bowed, saying, "Thank you, Grand Commandant!"

After Wang Zhen'e and the others left, Huang Feng Dasheng asked Xue Baochai, "Did you ask about the matter I told you before?"

Xue Baochai said, "I have mentioned this matter to the seven Daoist masters, but they all said that only the two Daoist ancestors can make the decision."

"Did they say anything about reporting this matter to the two Dao Ancestors?" asked the Great Sage Huang Feng.

Xue Baochai shook her head and said, "No, they only said that the two Dao Ancestors have recently been resisting the invasion of the Fire Element Dao Ancestor and the Earth Element Dao Ancestor."

Upon hearing this, the Great Sage Huangfeng said, "I understand. It seems that the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder will not agree to this matter."

Xue Baochai also sighed and said, "At least for now, there is no hope. The Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder will not open this door."

As for what they were talking about, they wanted the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao to open a boundary gate connecting it to the Pangu Heavenly Dao, allowing people from both sides to travel between them.

But it's clear that the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder won't agree, at least not right now.

"Then let's proceed according to the original plan and see how things go." With that, the Great Sage Huangfeng gestured for Xue Baochai to sit down, then walked up and sat down himself, and continued, "The intelligence you brought back from this mission is very important. If those immortal lords who appeared in the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao are their main force, then they definitely won't be able to withstand the attack of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao. At that time, they will naturally give in."

Xue Baochai asked, "Then what should we do? Now that we've signed an alliance, we can't just watch them get attacked by the Five Elements Heavenly Dao."

“That won’t do,” said the Great Sage Huang Feng. “What we need to do is to establish a firm foothold in the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao and lay a solid foundation for our Pangu Heavenly Dao to enter the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao. Therefore, we must not only fulfill our alliance with the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao, but also do our best to help them resist the attacks of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao.”

Upon hearing this, Xue Baochai remained silent for a moment before saying, "In that case, our losses would be enormous."

Huang Feng the Great Sage said, "Even if I and these twelve thousand people all die here, it will be worth it. We must make Feng Lei Tian Dao understand who can save him! We only have two tasks: First, to help Feng Lei Tian Dao defend against the Five Elements Tian Dao before my Pangu Tian Dao completes the construction of the Heavenly Bridge. Second, to make Feng Lei Tian Dao completely side with my Pangu Tian Dao, so that they know that only Pangu Tian Dao can save Feng Lei Tian Dao."

"Yes," Xue Baochai nodded and said, "I understand."

Just then, a divine general walked into the hall and bowed to the Great Sage Huangfeng, saying, "Reporting to the Grand Commandant, our patrol team just discovered a celestial vessel of the Five Elements Heavenly Path, which is heading towards our Wuding Realm."

"Oh?" The Great Sage Huang Feng raised an eyebrow: "You came very quickly."

He immediately turned to his deputy general, Li Ji, and said, "Deputy General Li, immediately issue the order to assemble and prepare to meet the enemy."

Li Ji rose, walked to the hall, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "As you command." (End of Chapter)
