I am a fairy in Journey to the West

The Zhechong Camp advanced at an extremely rapid pace, conquering two-thirds of the Xuan Shui Immortal Domain in just three months.

Five months later, Chi Ling, having recovered from her injuries, led her people into the Tianqing Realm, only to find it deserted, with all the major high-grade immortal sects having fled.

Chi Ling shattered the council hall of the Jade Water Immortal Sect with a single palm strike, turned around with bloodshot eyes, and behind her were the two deputy generals, Turtle Spirit Mother and Heavenly Crow General.

"Search the entire Xuan Shui Immortal Realm! You must find that despicable couple, Jade Water Daoist and Qin Keqing!" Chi Ling's tone was filled with murderous intent.

The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit and General Tianwu acknowledged the order and were about to leave when Chi Ling added, "Also, do not let any cultivator from the Jade Water Immortal Sect go. You can issue a bounty. As long as a Water Clan cultivator provides information on the whereabouts of Jade Water Immortal Sect cultivators, their entire family can immediately receive protection from the Zhechong Camp."

"Yes, ma'am." The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit and General Tianwu acknowledged the order once more, then quickly turned and left.

At this moment, a purplish-black celestial light descended, and Chi Ling's heart stirred. Soon, she saw a kind-faced old man appear before her eyes.

However, he was stopped by the heavenly soldiers of the Zhechong Camp, and a captain of the heavenly soldiers came to report: "Grand Commandant, a man who claims to be the head of the Intelligence Bureau says he wants to see you."

Chi Ling glanced at the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire in the distance, then said to the Heavenly Soldier Captain, "Let him come over."

The heavenly soldiers made way, and the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire appeared before Chi Ling with a flash of immortal light beneath his feet.

"I am Jiyu, the newly appointed head of the Intelligence Division. I pay my respects to Grand Commandant Chiling," said the Demon Lord Jiyu, bowing with a smile.

Chi Ling suppressed her killing intent towards the Jade Water Immortal Sect, a smile appeared on her face, and she returned the greeting to the Extreme Desire Demon Lord, saying, "I recognize you, fellow Daoist. You are the Guangfa Heavenly Demon Lord of the Demonic Sect."

"It is truly my honor that the Grand Commandant remembers me," said the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire in a sincere tone.

Chi Ling smiled faintly and asked, "Fellow Daoist, have you come to see me with any information?"

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire stated frankly, "I arrived in the Heavenly Clarity Realm three months ago."

Chi Ling frowned, did some mental calculations, and then said, "Three months ago, our people just conquered the Frost Realm. How did you find the Heavenly Purity Realm, fellow Daoist?"

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire laughed and said, "I have my own way."

Chi Ling nodded without asking any further questions. It was nothing more than those demonic methods; she was more concerned with something else.

"When you arrived here three months ago, did you see any people from the Jade Water Immortal Sect?" Chi Ling asked.

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire shook his head and said, "No, when I arrived, all the major immortal sects had already deserted, leaving only those immortal cultivators who did not belong to the major immortal sects here."

At this point, the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire bowed to Chi Ling and said, "I request that the Grand Commandant give the order that these creatures remaining in the Heavenly Clarity Realm should not be killed indiscriminately as long as they do not attack the Heavenly Army."

Chi Ling looked at the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "When did you, a Demon Lord, develop such a compassionate heart?"

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire laughed and said, "Buddha and demon are one; when they are upright, they are Buddha; when they are reversed, they are demon."

"Do you think I, the Grand Commandant, would believe such nonsense?" Chi Ling retorted.

Even the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire wasn't angry. The person in front of him was a trusted confidant of the Divine Firmament Emperor, someone he couldn't afford to offend.

Therefore, the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire laughed and said, "Then I will say something that the Grand Commandant will believe: the beings in this world have been converted by me, and they are of great use to me and to my rebirth as Pangu."

Chi Ling frowned, immediately understanding what the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire meant. She asked again, "You haven't lost your mind and nature, have you?"

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire laughed heartily and then said, "Please rest assured, Grand Commandant, the salvation I speak of is genuine salvation, not a means to confuse the mind and lead one astray."

Chi Ling nodded and said, "In that case, I will give the order as you say. However, this does not include those from the Jade Water Immortal Sect."

"Very well, then thank you very much, Grand Commandant." The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire said with a smile, "Grand Commandant, you can rest assured that these people can help you search for those Jade Water Immortal Sect members."

Chi Ling said with satisfaction, "That's good then."

At this moment, the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire said again: "Grand Commandant Chi Ling, after more than three months of investigation in this Tianqing Realm, it is very likely that the Jade Water Immortal Sect and the Ping Water Immortal Sect will flee to other immortal realms."

Upon hearing this, Chi Ling immediately inquired carefully, "Is there any news?"

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire said, "The information is not accurate. It was all said by the beings who remained in this realm. They only saw the people of the Jade Water Immortal Sect and the Ping Water Immortal Sect board the Heavenly Boat under the leadership of their respective Dao Lords, and they left the Heavenly Clarity Realm in two different directions."

At this point, the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire offered his speculation: "The two families are very likely to have fled separately. Judging from the information given by the beings of this realm, the Jade Water Immortal Sect should be heading to the Green Wood Immortal Realm, and the Ping Water Immortal Sect should be heading to the Yellow Earth Immortal Realm."

Chi Ling's expression hardened. "Is this information reliable?"

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire laughed and said, "The information may not be reliable, but the beings who provide this information will definitely be reliable after I have converted them."

This statement seems contradictory, but Chi Ling understands that the Great Awakening Golden Immortal possesses great magical power to obscure all living beings and transform reality into illusion.

The beings of the Heavenly Purity Realm, after being converted by the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire, certainly spoke the truth, but the scenes they witnessed at the time might have been illusions, created by Daoist Ping Shui and Daoist Yu Shui using their great magical power.

Thinking of this, Chi Ling immediately said, "Whether it's true or false, these two families only have these two places to escape to. I will immediately assemble a large army and split into two groups to pursue them."

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire said, "There's no need to rush. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven has already made arrangements. The 200,000-strong army of the Jade Lotus Camp has blocked the passage to the Azure Wood Immortal Realm, and the 200,000-strong Heavenly Army of the Suppressing Calamity has blocked the passage to the Yellow Earth Immortal Realm. If they had set off three months ago, they would probably have already encountered these two camps by now. I believe news will come soon."

Chi Ling nodded slightly. The analysis of the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire made a lot of sense. She was about to speak when the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire's Heavenly Profound Jade Talisman emitted a clear and melodious sound.

Chi Ling immediately stopped talking, while the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire took out the Heavenly Profound Jade Talisman to examine it. After looking at it, the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire immediately smiled: "Just as I expected, the Zhen'e Camp encountered the immortal cultivator army of the Ping Shui Immortal Sect ten days ago. The two sides fought a fierce battle, and the Ping Shui Immortal Sect army suffered heavy losses and has retreated to another place."

Chi Ling hurriedly asked, "Is there any news about the Jade Water Immortal Sect?"

The Demon Lord of Extreme Desire shook his head and said, "Not yet, but I believe news will arrive soon." As he said this, a mysterious smile appeared on his face. "No matter what happens in the Xuan Shui Immortal Realm now, I will definitely be the first to receive the intelligence." Seeing the Demon Lord of Extreme Desire's confident expression, Chi Ling felt reassured and said with a smile, "This is how the Intelligence Division should be!"

In the Realm of Ququan, Shui Lingyang flew in from beyond the heavens and arrived at a celestial gate within the Realm of Ququan.

This immortal sect was originally a low-grade immortal sect in the Ququan Realm, but when the Jade Water Immortal Sect came, they had to obediently hand over their immortal sect residence.

Shui Lingyang entered the main hall and bowed to the Jade Water Daoist above, saying, "Daoist, the passage to the Heavenly Gate of the Azure Wood Immortal Realm has been blocked by the Heavenly Soldiers, and we cannot pass through."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Yu Shui frowned deeply, "I didn't expect the Qi Tian Holy Mansion to act so quickly."

Shui Lingyang walked to the right side of the main hall and sat down. At this moment, a celestial lord opposite her asked, "Can we just charge straight in?"

“No,” Shui Lingyang said. “Unless we kill all those heavenly soldiers, the people of Qingmu Immortal Realm will not open the Heavenly Gate defenses to let us in.”

"Then kill them all!" another immortal lord shouted.

Shui Lingyang rolled her eyes. "You think you can just kill them all like that? Why didn't you kill them all in front of the Xuan Shui Immortal Realm's gate?"

"That's because of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. If it weren't for him, we might not have lost," the immortal lord said.

Shui Lingyang said, "But I didn't see you kill that spirit turtle on the other side."

Seeing that everyone was about to start arguing, Daoist Yushui immediately said, "Don't argue, we need to find a way to get to the Azure Wood Immortal Realm now, we can talk about other things later."

Everyone immediately fell silent and turned their gaze to Lord Yu Shui.

After pondering for a moment, Daoist Yushui said, "I have a microcosm in the palm of my hand, which can easily accommodate 500,000 immortal cultivators of my Yushui Immortal Sect. At that time, I can directly break through the Heavenly Soldiers' defense line. As long as the Azure Wood Immortal Domain can provide support, it will not be difficult to escape."

Shui Lingyang said, "In that case, we need to send someone to contact the Azure Wood Immortal Realm."

Daoist Yushui nodded and raised his hand to conjure a celestial talisman. "This is my Daoist talisman. As long as this talisman is given to the people of the Azure Wood Immortal Realm, they will know that it is me."

The Water River Immortal Lord, seated at the head of the table, accepted the talisman. The Jade Water Dao Lord looked at the group of immortal lords and said, "Only you can handle this matter. I cannot go. If the other side is prepared, my presence will expose me."

Although a Great Awakening Golden Immortal can conceal their aura and even change their appearance, as long as they use their magic power, their aura will still leak out, and they will inevitably be discovered by the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

Moreover, without prior contact with the Azure Wood Immortal Realm, even if I managed to reach the Azure Wood Immortal Realm's Heavenly Gate, the people of the Azure Wood Immortal Realm would not easily let me in.

Therefore, upon hearing the words of Daoist Yushui, all the immortal masters immediately bowed and replied, "Yes."

Over the next ten days or so, Ququan Realm continuously sent out many immortal cultivators with talismans to the Heavenly Gate of Qingmu Immortal Domain in order to contact the people of Qingmu Immortal Domain.

But the Heavenly Army of the Green Lotus Camp guarding this place didn't care who the newcomers were; they would kill anyone they found and wouldn't listen to any explanations.

So after sending out agents to the river repeatedly ended in failure, the Water River Immortal Lord decided to go himself.

This time, the Water River Immortal Lord led thirty immortal cultivators under his command, breaking through checkpoints and overcoming seven layers of defenses of the Jade Lotus Camp Heavenly Army. Just as they were about to reach the Heavenly Gate of the Azure Wood Immortal Realm, they were blocked by a tall and handsome figure.

“I am Ao Moang, the deputy general of the Bi'ou Camp. Who are you, daring to trespass on the border?” Ao Moang asked, holding a three-edged mace.

Without saying much, Shuihe raised his hand and summoned a water spear, creating an endless tide of water as he charged towards Ao Moang.

Seeing this, Ao Moang sneered and immediately flew up, first using his dragon might to part the tide, and then thrusting his three-edged mace straight into the river.

The two fought for less than three rounds before Shuihe was killed by Ao Moang with a single mace.

With Shuihe dead, the remaining water-based immortal cultivators could no longer resist and were all killed by the surrounding heavenly soldiers.

Within the Ququan Realm, Daoist Yushui was the first to sense Shuihe's death. He suddenly stood up, startling Qin Keqing who was beside him.

"My lord, what's wrong?" Qin Keqing asked hurriedly.

Ever since betraying Pangu and appearing in the world, and after the battle at the Heavenly Gate of the Xuan Shui Immortal Realm, Qin Keqing's expression has been rather unwell, and she is always restless.

Seeing the solemn expression on Yu Shui Dao Jun's face, she felt even more uneasy.

“The Water River Immortal Lord is dead.” Jade Water Daoist said in a deep voice, “He will surely be exposed this time, and we must leave Ququan Realm immediately.”

Qin Keqing's face paled, and she immediately stood up and said, "Wherever my lord goes, I will go."

Lord Yushui nodded slightly, then immediately led Qin Keqing out of the hermitage and into the front hall to summon the immortal masters.

Without saying much, Jade Water Daoist addressed the assembled immortals directly: “The Water River Immortal Lord is dead. The Heavenly Army will surely find out our whereabouts from him. You must immediately gather all the immortal cultivators and board the Heavenly Boat to leave this realm.”

The immortal lords were initially shocked, but then they all accepted the order and left.

Soon after, ten enormous celestial boats rose into the sky from within the Ququan Realm and slowly flew out of it.

However, just as these ten celestial boats flew out of the Ququan Realm, they saw an even larger celestial vessel hovering overhead. This vessel was entirely made of flowing gold, dazzling and enormous, larger than four or five of the celestial boats.

Upon seeing the celestial vessel, everyone from the Jade Water Immortal Sect cried out in despair, "It's the Golden Sky Ship!"

Yu Shui Daojun hurriedly stepped out of the cabin and looked at the golden warship. He saw that countless Five Thunder Golden Arrows and Sun God Talismans had already fallen from the golden warship.

In that instant, the area where the ten celestial boats of the Jade Water Immortal Sect were located, as well as the Ququan Realm below, were submerged in boundless lightning and solar fire. (End of Chapter)
