Don't try to cultivate immortality; mortals live longer than immortals.

Unfortunately, it's useless!

With satellites monitoring from the sky, the resolution is accurate to the centimeter, and the ground is also being scanned by Lingyun in a dual-band mode, covering the entire area. No matter what secret techniques a mere Qi Refining cultivator is proficient in, it is absolutely impossible for them to deceive the heavens and escape alive under such circumstances.

as predicted.

About two minutes later, all the faint lights went out. The whole process didn't even require Duan Xuan to run around; Ling Yun directly controlled the drone to finish off the enemy.

Although the cultivators fought back with all their might, it was all in vain due to their severe injuries. In the end, they all perished, and there was not a single survivor in the entire bamboo forest.

Lingyun quickly provided the statistical report.

"Host, life signal has been cleared. All 207 cultivators have been confirmed dead. Drones and mechanical dogs are carrying out the final battlefield cleanup. All storage bags will be collected, including broken magical artifacts damaged in the battle."

"A damaged magical artifact?"

"Yes."

Lingyun nodded: "Although these things cannot be used for the time being, they are metal materials with various spiritual properties. Even if the Qi-refining level is not particularly rare, every little bit counts. They can be remelted and exchanged for contribution points from the Immortal Alliance."

"Um."

Duan Xuan agreed after hearing this, feeling quite pleased with himself. Ling Yun was indeed capable, a good helper whether it was cultivation, fighting, or staying at home.

Five minutes later, the swarm of drones arrived in front of Duan Xuan, carrying a large number of storage bags, piled up like a mountain.

"So many?"

Although he had expected it, Duan Xuan was still shocked and delighted by what he saw.

This time, it can't be described as just getting rich; it's like becoming rich overnight. And that doesn't even include the contribution points that such a feat can earn from the Immortal Alliance!

My only worry is whether my performance will be a bit shocking.

After all, it seems a bit too exaggerated for one person to wipe out more than two hundred cultivators from the Azure Sky Realm.

If this matter attracts the attention of the higher-ups in the Immortal Alliance, it would be a loss that outweighs the gains!

"Don't worry, host, this is not a problem."

Seeing Duan Xuan's worried expression, Ling Yun promptly presented him with a thoughtful gift.

"One person killed more than two hundred cultivators. Just looking at the numbers, it does seem a bit outrageous. But don't forget, host, how did you manage to do all this? You didn't fight them head-on. You used your brain and tricks to make these guys kill each other. Once the powerful enemies were few and far between, you came out to clean up the mess."

"From this perspective, the current battle results are reasonable and will not attract too much attention from the Immortal Alliance. At most, the higher-ups will think that you are brave and resourceful."

"That's true, but is it really that easy to fool the other party?" Duan Xuan still felt that Ling Yun had oversimplified the matter.

"Don't worry, I've got everything covered." Lingyun patted her chest, her expression full of confidence: "I have a video recording of the whole thing."

"Video recording?"

"Yes, but the video will be edited to make everything seem reasonable, and the higher-ups of the Immortal Alliance will never notice anything amiss."

"Really? Edited videos always have unnatural and disjointed parts. The higher-ups in the Immortal Alliance aren't stupid; do you think they're that easy to fool?"

"Host, you have to believe me. As a system, my abilities are beyond your imagination. The edited video may indeed have some inconsistencies, but whenever I encounter such places, I will use AI technology to correct and make up for them, making everything look smooth and logical."

Lingyun wasn't lying; in fact, she was more certain than she claimed, because her true identity was the main AI of Shuiyun Star, in charge of all the planet's daily affairs. This kind of social practice for students was certified and evaluated by her.

In other words, Lingyun is the final reviewer and decision-maker in this matter, so if she says there is no problem, then there is naturally no problem. This is the same principle as someone suing this official in court.

Providing video evidence is merely a way to appease the host and make the matter seem more plausible.

In fact, she reviewed the data and was responsible for storing it. How could there be any mistakes in that process?

Even if someone dares to raise a question, Lingyun can simply dismiss it with a "you have no right to ask." No one will be stubborn and ungrateful, because she has various ways to threaten and control them.

For example, loan amount...

For example, the allocation methods and proportions of various cultivation resources...

Just kidding. Low-level cultivators don't have the authority to pay attention to this. As for high-level cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, who would risk their immortal potential for such a trivial matter of Qi Refining?

The only one who can overturn this conclusion is the Ancestor of the Nascent Soul stage.

But those old monsters already knew the host's background.

It is clear that Duan Xuan is the owner of a true Heavenly Spiritual Root.

Such a record will only make them value and think highly of this kid even more.

Therefore, not only will this matter not cause any future troubles or crises, but Duan Xuan will also gain more and greater benefits from it. In order to prevent the genius with the true Heavenly Spirit Root from being taken away, the old monsters will even help to keep it a secret and cover up any loopholes.

Lingyun used its computing power and in less than 0.1 nanoseconds, it deduced the conclusion clearly, and there was no other possibility that was beyond its calculations.

"good!"

Seeing that the little girl was full of confidence, Duan Xuan stopped worrying and feeling uneasy. The system was always reliable. Besides, the two of them were bound together by fate, and she couldn't possibly lie about this. If she said there was no problem, then there really was no problem.

Just then, a series of "beep beep beep" alarm sounds reached my ears.

It's a nano-spiritual energy value detector!

Duan Xuan was slightly taken aback.

Before he could ask a question, Lingyun's clear voice explained, "It's Fairy Yaoguang. She's on her way here with her servants."

"Jiang Yaoguang?"

Duan Xuan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this information.

This woman has always been mysterious. She was the one who brought me into this social practice. Lingyun had even given me a hint that this woman was not an ordinary cultivator, but she wouldn't say too much about the specifics. She only told me that I must not underestimate her and that I must be careful in my words and actions when interacting with her.

Duan Xuan readily agreed to the suggestion, and had always kept his distance from Fairy Yaoguang. Upon hearing that she was heading here, his first reaction was to quickly leave this troublesome place.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Three streaks of light pierced the sky, especially the first one, which broke the sound barrier, leaving a ring of fine white streaks in mid-air, which were wiped away by the airflow in the blink of an eye.

Within the escaping light, Fairy Yaoguang's eyes held a hint of doubt. Although her nano-spiritual energy detector had inexplicably malfunctioned just now, she still vaguely sensed the changes that had occurred in the bamboo forest ahead, thanks to her powerful divine sense, which far surpassed that of Qi Refining cultivators.
