I am a fairy in Journey to the West

"The Cloud-Burning Sky Boat has self-destructed." In the vast realm of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao, a huge crimson sky boat is hovering there.

This celestial vessel is named 'Taiyan Celestial Vessel'. It is the flagship of the Fire Clan, and the immortal lords who invaded the various immortal abodes of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao were on this celestial vessel.

The speaker was a slightly overweight middle-aged immortal master who walked into the central pavilion with an extinguished fire talisman and addressed the crowd.

Upon hearing this, all the Fire Clan Immortal Lords in the central pavilion frowned. At this moment, the leading Immortal Lord asked, "The Cloud Blazing Sky Boat has been destroyed. Have any of the immortal cultivators on board returned?"

"No," the slightly plump immortal master shook his head and said, "They were probably all wiped out."

The leading immortal lord frowned deeply, and the surrounding immortal lords all focused their gazes.

"What is the name of that small realm?" a celestial lord asked.

Another immortal master replied, "According to the heavenly secrets intercepted ten days ago, that small realm was originally called 'Wu Ding Realm', but now it is called 'Wu Ding Realm'."

"Changed the name?" another immortal lord said. "If it can be found in the intercepted heavenly secrets, then it means that the name was changed not long ago."

"Why did they change their name? From 'Wu' to 'Wu', is there some kind of scheme behind it?" the fifth immortal lord asked.

The leading immortal lord pondered for a moment, then said, "Inform the 'Yuan Gui Tian Fang' of this news and ask them if they know anything about the situation in the Martial Realm."

"Yes." The slightly plump immortal master acknowledged the order, then turned and walked out.

Not long after, the slightly plump immortal master returned and said to the leading immortal master, "Immortal Master Zhengxing, Yuan Gui Tianfang has replied. They said that the army entrenched in Wuding Realm is most likely the army of Pangu Heavenly Dao, not the cultivators of Fenglei Heavenly Dao."

"The people of Pangu Heavenly Dao?" Huo Zhengxing's expression darkened, and then he looked up and said, "It seems that Pangu Heavenly Dao and Fenglei Heavenly Dao have formed an alliance. The five Dao Ancestors' concerns are not without reason. We must take advantage of the fact that Pangu Heavenly Dao's Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge is not completed before we destroy Fenglei Heavenly Dao."

After saying that, Huo Zhengxing stood up and said, "I'm going to Yuan Gui Tian Fang. This Pangu Heavenly Dao army is very strong. Sending only subordinates won't be enough to deal with them."

Not long after, Huo Zhengxing arrived at the Tu tribe's flagship, the Yuan Gui Tian Fang, and met the Tu tribe's Commander Immortal Lord, Tu Yuan Gui.

"The Boundless Realm is inhabited by cultivators of the Pangu Heavenly Dao. Sending people from below won't solve the problem. My suggestion is that each of our two families send some Immortal Lords to personally lead troops to wipe them out," Huo Zhengxing said to Tu Yuangui.

Tu Yuangui nodded and said, "I have the same idea. If it were cultivators of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao, we could deal with them slowly, but these cultivators of the Pangu Heavenly Dao pose a great threat and must be dealt with as soon as possible."

Huo Zhengxing said, "Then it's decided. I can send twelve Immortal Lords and 150,000 Immortal Cultivators."

Tu Yuangui said, "Then I will also send twelve Immortal Lords and 150,000 Immortal Cultivators to completely annihilate this army of Pangu Heavenly Dao."

"Okay," Huo Zhengxing nodded in agreement.

The Fire and Earth races reached an agreement and made all the arrangements in just one day. The two sides dispatched a total of thirty Immortal Lords and three hundred thousand Immortal Cultivators, sailing ten celestial ships towards the Wuding Realm.

The movements on the Five Elements Heavenly Dao side naturally could not be kept secret from the locals, and the Wind and Thunder Great World detected the actions of the Fire Clan and the Fire Clan immediately.

At this moment, the three Dao Lords of Xuanfeng, Lingfeng, and Yulei, who had already arrived at the front line of Tianmen, immediately held a meeting. Dao Lord Xuanfeng asked, "The Fire and Earth races have gathered 300,000 immortal cultivators to attack Wuding Realm. Should we go to their aid?"

Lord Yu Lei said, "Grand Commandant Zhang Tian did not ask us for help."

Lingfeng Daojun said, "After all, our two families have signed an alliance. Wouldn't it be unreasonable not to provide support?"

Lord Yu Lei said, "If we send people to help without asking for assistance, it would be suspected that we are looking down on them."

Lingfeng Daojun and Xuanfeng Daojun fell silent. After a moment, Lingfeng Daojun said, "How about this? Let's send someone over to observe the situation secretly first. If Zhang Tianying can't hold the position, then we'll go and reinforce him. At that time, there will be no more grudges."

Xuanfeng Daojun and Yulei Daojun exchanged a glance, then nodded and said, "Okay."

Lord Yu Lei added, "We can gather the people together first so that they can be mobilized at any time."

Lingfeng Daojun pondered and said, "We can spare about twenty Immortal Lords, and it's not a problem to spare 180,000 Immortal Cultivators."

Dao Lord Yu Lei and Dao Lord Xuan Feng nodded. "Let's gather the troops according to this number. Also, send a few more Immortal Lords over. There's no need to observe them secretly. Just go directly to Wuding Realm and explain your purpose."

“Okay.” Daoist Lingfeng and Daoist Xuanfeng agreed.

Therefore, on the Fenglei Great World side, the three Dao Lords selected Feng Dingzhou, Lei Qing'e, and Feng Wuzhi, and sent them directly to the Wuding Realm to observe the situation and report back to the Fenglei Great World at any time.

After receiving their orders, the three bid farewell to the three Dao Lords and left the Heavenly Gate for the Martial Realm without any delay.

Meanwhile, within the Wuding border.

The Great Sage Huangfeng had already prepared defenses, not because he knew the Fire and Earth armies were coming, but because he knew the Five Elements Heavenly Dao would not let the matter rest, so he had already begun to perfect his defenses.

At this moment, a divine general landed in front of the Great Sage Huangfeng and bowed, saying, "Reporting to the Grand Commandant, three immortal lords from the Wind and Thunder Great World have arrived and request entry."

"Oh?" The Great Sage Huangfeng was slightly surprised, then issued a decree: "Bring them in."

"As you command." The divine general accepted the talisman and immediately returned to the heavens. Soon after, he led Feng Dingzhou and the other two into the realm and arrived before the Great Sage Huangfeng.

When Feng Dingzhou, Lei Qing'e, and Feng Wuzhi saw Huang Feng Dasheng, they were immediately taken aback. Although Huang Feng Dasheng was tall and imposing, his face did not resemble a human face, and they did not dare to recognize him for a moment.

After the divine general introduced them, the three confirmed the identity of the Great Sage Huang Feng and quickly stepped forward to pay their respects, saying, "Feng Dingzhou (Lei Qing'e and Feng Wuzhi) greet the Grand Commandant."

Huang Feng Dasheng returned the greeting with a cupped hand and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoists, you have come from afar and have had a long journey. I apologize for not being able to greet you properly." "Not at all," Feng Dingzhou said, "The three of us have come on the orders of Dao Lords Yu Lei, Ling Feng, and Xuan Feng."

As Huang Feng invited the three to sit down, he had a divine general serve tea. "May I ask what brings you three immortal lords here on orders?"

Feng Dingzhou said, "Doesn't the Grand Commandant know yet? The Earth and Fire tribes have already dispatched large armies, which are currently on their way to Wuding Realm."

The Great Sage Huang Feng looked slightly surprised and asked, "How did the three Immortal Lords know this?"

Lei Qing'e smiled and said, "Grand Commandant, this is the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder, and the secrets of Heaven naturally favor us beings of the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder."

The Great Sage Huang Feng suddenly realized and asked, "Is there any more detailed information?"

Feng Wuzhi said, "Yes, this time the allied forces of the Earth and Fire races have a total of 300,000 immortal cultivators, and there are also 30 immortal lords."

Upon hearing this news, the divine general beside Huang Feng Dasheng immediately changed his expression, and even Huang Feng Dasheng's pupils shrank slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.

The Great Sage Huang Feng smiled faintly and said, "I didn't expect them to think so highly of me."

Lei Qing'e said, "So the three Dao Lords sent us here to observe the situation and, by the way, to ask the Grand Commandant if he needs the support of my Wind and Thunder Great World?"

Huang Feng Dasheng laughed and said, "Three hundred thousand people may seem like a lot, but I, Zhang Tianying, can still handle it."

The three exchanged a glance, and then Feng Dingzhou nodded and said, "That's good, that's good. But the three of us will not go back this time. We want to stay here to observe the battle situation. I wonder if the Grand Commandant can grant us permission?"

"What's so special about this?" Huang Feng the Great Sage laughed. "The three of you are welcome to stay and see how my Zhang Tianying soldiers defeat the enemy."

The three smiled upon hearing this and nodded, saying, "Alright, then thank you very much, Grand Commandant."

Then, the Great Sage Huang Feng led the three back to the Grand Commandant's Mansion on Wanren Mountain. When they arrived outside the mansion, they saw that the sky above Wuding Realm was faintly shimmering with golden light.

However, the golden light was not the usual golden light of immortal cultivators; it carried a different kind of aura, as if it were a divine power never seen before.

So Lei Qing'e asked, "Grand Commandant, what is that golden light shimmering in the sky?"

The Great Sage Huang Feng looked up and immediately laughed, "That is the protective formation we set up, called the 'Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation'."

"Oh?" Lei Qing'e was slightly surprised and said, "Array formation? We have never seen this before. But can the array formation of Pangu Heavenly Dao also work in my Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao?"

The Great Sage Huang Feng laughed and said, "Some formations are naturally useless, but some formations are still useful. For example, the Heavenly Dipper and Big Dipper Formation. Without the Heavenly Dipper and Big Dipper stars, the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao is naturally useless, but the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams are not affected."

Lei Qing'e was even more surprised and quickly asked, "Please enlighten me."

The Great Sage Huang Feng said, “The so-called Eight Trigrams are Qian, Kun, Zhen, Li, Gen, Kan, Xun, and Dui, which correspond to ‘Heaven, Earth, Thunder, Fire, Water, Wind, and Lake.’ These Eight Trigrams form the foundation of the world. The Nine Palaces are derived from the Eight Trigrams. Among the eight palaces, Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui, there is an additional ‘Central Palace.’ Therefore, wherever the world exists, the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams will naturally possess their power.”

At this point, the Great Sage Huang Feng raised his hand and pointed into the distance, "Fellow Daoists, please look over there."

Upon hearing this, the three immediately focused their gaze and indeed saw gray pillars of light rising from the land of Wuding Realm. However, the pillars of light were very faint, so they had not paid attention to them before.

Upon seeing it, Feng Wuzhi asked, "What is that?"

The Great Sage Huang Feng laughed and said, "That is the earth's energy. We will activate the earth's vein power in the Martial Realm and guide it to the heavens to connect with the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation. Then we can use the earth's vein energy to maintain the operation of the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation."

"Earth veins and earth energy?" Feng Dingzhou exclaimed in surprise. "We know that there is a divine power underground that is the foundation for maintaining the earth. I never thought it could be used by humans?"

Huang Feng Dasheng smiled slightly and said to Feng Dingzhou, "The Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder only values ​​the laws of wind and thunder, so it naturally won't care about the power of this earth vein. Besides, since you don't have an earth god, it's not easy for you to utilize this earth vein."

Upon hearing this, Feng Dingzhou asked, "Then what kind of law does Pangu's Heavenly Dao emphasize? Judging from the name Pangu, could it be that he emphasizes the law of spacetime?"

"Not so." The Great Sage Huang Feng shook his head, then smiled and said, "My Pangu Heavenly Dao embraces all rivers and does not favor any one law, but rather promotes the coexistence of all laws equally."

The three were immediately incredulous upon hearing this. They couldn't imagine what a chaotic situation it would be if all laws coexisted equally. In their minds, 'equal coexistence' meant 'no bias'.

In their view, this is equivalent to someone claiming to have learned all skills equally, which actually means that he is not proficient in any skill.

But since the two sides are allies right now, it's not convenient to say these words, so he could only nod silently.

Upon entering the Grand Commandant's residence, the Great Sage Yellow Wind summoned Xue Baochai. As soon as Xue Baochai arrived, she saw Feng Dingzhou and the other two. They had naturally met before, so Xue Baochai's eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped forward to greet them, "What brings the three immortal masters to the Martial Realm?"

Feng Dingzhou explained his purpose to Xue Baochai. When Xue Baochai heard that the armies of the Tu and Huo clans were about to arrive, her expression also became serious.

At this moment, the Great Sage Huangfeng said, "Military Advisor Xue, you got to know the three Immortal Lords when you were on your previous mission. Now that the three Immortal Lords have come here to observe the battle, how about you accompany them throughout the entire process?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Baochai immediately bowed and said, "Your subordinate obeys."

Huang Feng Dasheng nodded, then said to Feng Dingzhou and the other two, "Fellow Daoists, the Consultant Military Advisor will accompany you from now on. You can ask him anything you want. The armies of the Earth and Fire Clans are about to arrive, and I need to prepare for the battle with the two deputy generals."

Upon hearing this, the three immediately cupped their hands and said, "Please do as you wish, Grand Commandant. We will follow Military Advisor Xue."

The Great Sage Yellow Wind nodded, then instructed Xue Baochai not to neglect her duties, before departing. (End of Chapter)
