"Roar!" The three White Tiger Talisman Beasts raised their heads and roared. Waves of sound surged forward and killed the last dozen Flying Beetle Lice on the spot.
The cold woman and the lotus clone also recalled their weapons.
The thick-browed old man recalled his talisman beasts and gasped for breath: "It seems like the Flying Beetle Lice is far more troublesome than expected. They actually spread all the way here. The stronghold's defenses alone might not be able to withstand such a large number of insects."
"Even if they can hold on for now, all of the Realmguard Envoys will be trapped if no other immortals come to help." The cold woman, who rarely spoke along the way, finally spoke. Her tone was the same as before without any fluctuations. It was as if the deaths of the Realmguard Envoys had nothing to do with her.
Lu Xiaotian glanced at her and felt that she was just as calm as before. There was a hint of joy hidden in her tone. However, it was not obvious. Lu Xiaotian didn't know if it was just his imagination or not. The deaths of the Realmguard Envoys had nothing to do with him. It was better that the tide was here. It would make the situation in Muye even more chaotic. Perhaps it could interfere with the Dragonseeker's vision.
The thick-browed old man sighed: "Luckily, we managed to escape this time. If we didn't go through the Immortal Corpse Cave, we would have been trapped like the others. If we didn't hide in a few places like the Immortal Corpse Cave, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to find shelter."
The thick-browed old man sneered: "Fellow Daoist, you didn't seem to be such a sentimental person before."
The thick-browed old man said: "I'm not feeling pity for the Realmguard Envoys, I'm just lamenting about my own fate. Unlike you people from the lower realms, we were born in this world. Even at the immortal level, we are still at the bottom of the Heavenly Realm. We still can't control our own fate. "
The thick-browed old man said: "Not being able to control your own fate is only because you aren't strong enough. You were born in the Immortal World at a young age, so your starting point is already higher than countless people. A mere Lightning Realm has already stopped so many lower realm cultivators outside the forbidden zone. What's there to sigh about? "Demon King Skyreach rolled his eyes. Just the deaths of a few fellow Daoists were enough to make him sentimental. Back in the Spirit Realm, just the chaotic battles in the Chaotic Demon Realm alone could not even be described as a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Forget it. Fellow Daoist, you're right. There's no point in talking about this. Once you come out of the Cave of the Immortals, you'll have to travel another tens of thousands of kilometers and pass through the Stone Mirror Desert. Then, you'll be completely out of Muye's reach. "The thick-browed old man didn't want to waste any more time arguing with the Skyreach Devils. Right now, the most important thing was to send Lu Xiaotian and the others away as soon as possible and retrieve the jade talisman of life.
"Fellow Daoist, please." Lu Xiaotian glanced at the icy woman. The closer they got to the finish line, the more careful they had to be. She didn't have a jade talisman of life that could be used against her. Even if the Wild Herding Insect Swarm was too much for the immortals guarding this place, they would be exhausted. They couldn't rule out the possibility of an accident just because of that. At a time like this, they had to keep a close eye on her.
"You're pretty careful." Now that they were leaving Muye, the icy woman seemed to be more talkative than usual. "A Buddhist cultivator?"
"Half, I guess," Lu Xiaotian said noncommittally.
The icy woman nodded and didn't say anything else. She didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
Along the way, the thick-browed old man explained to Lu Xiaotian and the others about the dangers that often appeared in the Stone Mirror Desert. Lu Xiaotian, Demon King Skyreach, and the others took note of everything, fearing that they would miss out on even the slightest bit of information.
A gust of wind swept up the sand and pelted them. The sand was much less lethal than the icy woman's crystal sand. The Fire Cloud Monster had absorbed a lot of Immortal Qi along the way. Its strength had risen from the Body Integration Realm to the Mahayana Realm. Moreover, a portion of its magic power had been converted into Immortal Essence. It was very close to becoming an Immortal. Its strength was no longer the same as before.
The Fire Cloud Monster waved its hand. A curtain of fire shot out and transformed into a black vortex.
The Xuanyang Spiritual Fire, the Non-Phase Mysterious Fire that Lu Xiaotian cultivated, was actually the fusion of two Spiritual Fires. It had completely embarked on a different path. The Mysterious Fire Way Skill that the Fire Cloud Monster cultivated was a single Xuanyang Spiritual Fire to the extreme. There were also infinite changes and its power was not small. However, compared to the Non-Phase Mysterious Fire, it was still slightly inferior.
The Fire Cloud Monster sucked in the sand from afar into its black vortex. At first, the Fire Cloud Monster appeared relaxed. However, its expression soon changed and it let out a strange cry. "Oh no!"
The vortex was instantly riddled with holes. Pieces of broken glass shot out from the inside. They were like sharp blades.
The Fire Cloud Monster retreated rapidly. At the same time, the black vortex exploded, creating a shockwave. Some of the sharp blades were slightly deflected, but nearly half of them were still unaffected. A dozen of them even merged with each other. They formed the shape of a six-pointed star. Instantly, the power of the crystal increased greatly. The lethality of the two six-pointed stars was close to that of an ordinary immortal weapon. With the Fire Cloud Monster's strength, it naturally could not withstand it.
The Heavenly Reach Demon Lord was about to make his move when a human-shaped shadow suddenly floated out of the Void. With a flick of its finger, two streaks of sword Qi shot into the middle of the six-pointed star. Immediately, the two six-pointed stars stopped moving.
The human-shaped shadow quickly shot out a few more streaks of sword Qi. Ding, ding, ding. With a series of explosive sounds, the two six-pointed stars immediately disintegrated. Only then did the Fire Cloud Monster's danger disappear.
"Sovereign King Sword Shadow?" A strange look flashed in Lu Xiaotian's eyes. The Lotus Avatar's progress in the Sword Dao had exceeded his expectations. If not for the Sword Embryo's side effects that the Primeval Sword Demon had created were too great, the Lotus Avatar would have continued to cultivate in this Dao.
It was a pity. While Lu Xiaotian was shaking his head, more sand and gravel gathered in the Void. The glass-like fragments of various sizes were densely packed together, as though there was no end to them.
Lu Xiaotian frowned as he glanced at the thick-browed elder. The thick-browed elder did not mention that the Stone Mirror Desert had such a phenomenon.
Not only the Fire Cloud Monster, but even the thick-browed elder was shocked. "What's going on with the Stone Mirror Desert? The sand and gravel crystallization is usually seen, but it should not be on such a scale."
"You don't know either?" The scale and lethality of the sand and gravel crystallization was no less than the combined attack of several immortals. The sand and gravel in the Stone Mirror Desert was endless. If it was the same situation later on, their group would be courting death by entering the Stone Mirror Desert.
"I really don't know. The Stone Mirror Desert used to be dangerous. Us Realm-Guardian Immortals have entered and exited it many times. Although one or two people have fallen here, there haven't been many accidents on the whole. If it were really dangerous, I wouldn't have rashly come here to throw away my life. "The thick-browed old man saw Lu Xiaotian's extremely dissatisfied expression and smiled bitterly.
