one could retreat unscathed.At their level, most would avoid direct conflict unless there were sufficient incentives.Things went more smoothly than expected. Although I had secretly persuaded the Nin..."Come here." Just as Xiao Yu was struggling to cope, a faint voice, almost inaudible, reached his ears. Xiao Yu's heart leapt with joy. Pretending to be defeated, he retreated towards the direction of the lotus avatar.
Three Corpse Wolf Guardians naturally wouldn't let this prey, right in front of them, slip away so easily. They had always surrounded Xiao Yu, but there was a reason why the elite warriors of the Howling Moon Wolf Clan didn't look down on the Corpse Wolf Guardians. They were accustomed to dirtier environments, not to mention...
He may lack courage, but he is wickedly cunning. He always tries to defeat his enemies with the least amount of effort. This time is no different. To prevent Xiao Yu from making a last stand, they are keeping one of their own as bait and putting distance between themselves and Xiao Yu.
Although Xiao Yu was under siege, he still had some room to maneuver and could move towards the direction of the lotus avatar.
As the lotus avatar entered the attack range, a surge of sword energy erupted from the ground. A colossal sword soared into the sky, reaching hundreds of feet high, and simultaneously unleashed three strikes with blinding speed. Wherever the sword light passed, dense white mist swirled outwards.
The three Corpse Wolf Guardians were greatly startled, apparently not expecting there to be another powerful human True Immortal here. They hurriedly each summoned their own methods to resist the flying sword that slashed towards them.
With a clang, several curved blades deflected the incoming sword strikes. Xiao Yu had anticipated the Lotus Division's response. After all, they had been fighting side-by-side in the Phantom Mist Swamp for some time. Although the three flying swords of the Lotus Division appeared identical at first glance, they were actually weighted differently: one heavy, two light. As they attacked, Xiao Yu received a warning. Two of the flying swords were blocked by the Corpse Wolf Effigies. However, the Corpse Wolf Effigy directly in front of Xiao Yu was targeted by the main attack of the Lotus Division's primary form.
The corpse wolf figurine's drawn sword clanged several times as it collided, and with great effort, it was finally split apart, barely managing to hold back the attack.
The other two Corpse Wolf figurines were initially intimidated by the powerful sword energy and blocked it without much effort. Only after they realized something was amiss did the firefly-like strands of the Shadow Weaving Silk swiftly pierce through the bodies of Xiao Yu's companions like lightning.
On the fire silkworm, a terrifying flame rose, burning the corpse wolf figurine to ashes with billowing smoke. The corpse wolf figurine let out a chilling scream. After Xiao Yu's full-strength strike, the other two wings naturally exposed some flaws. Realizing they had been tricked, the two corpse wolf figurines, enraged, brandished their curved knives, smoke serpents, and poison thorns, attacking Xiao Yu in an attempt to kill or severely injure him. In this way, even if a companion was killed, it wouldn't be a loss for them.
The lotus avatar flickered, streaks of sword light flowing forward. It intercepted the attacks of both corpse wolves.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yu's Fire Shadow Silkworm thread slashed once, cutting the Corpse Wolf Golem into dozens of pieces. Afterward, the flames rising from the Fire Shadow Silkworm burned them clean.
The remaining two Corpse Wolf guardians were also extremely decisive. Seeing that the opportunity to kill Xiao Yu was completely lost, and having already lost a comrade, they immediately turned and fled. These two human cultivators were simply too powerful! The two of them working together against one wouldn't be losing out at all, but if they had to face both simultaneously, it wouldn't take long before they met the same fate as their fallen comrade.
"Bring them down." Xiao Yu's face was covered in frost, her figure flitting through the void, leaving behind wisps of faint fire shadows. The enchanting human-faced crystal silkworm was even faster, circling around a corpse wolf figurine in the blink of an eye, leaving the remaining one to the lotus avatar.
The two corpse wolves were unsupported and, after enduring for a time, fell one after another.
"What are you doing Don't you know that acting alone in the Phantom Mist Swamp is extremely dangerous" Xiao Yu retrieved the spoils of war. Killing a true immortal-level Corpse Wolf Automaton was quite an achievement, enough to be reported and gain rewards for military merit.
The lotus avatar here did not fall behind either. After collecting the spoils of war, Xiao Yu frowned slightly and looked at the lotus avatar with displeasure.
“I have a bit of private business, thank you, Immortal for coming to look for me.” The lotus avatar nodded. This Xiao Yu has a good nature, if it were someone like Xiao Dingming, they wouldn't come looking for him at all.

As my guest, your safety is naturally something I must consider. Next time if anything happens, please let me know in advance. That way, if there's an accident, I can arrange for someone to assist you.
Xiao Yu said it out loud, but in her heart she let out a small hum of disapproval. The lotus doppelganger must have gone to look for those ghosts from before, the ones she had single-handedly tracked down and almost gotten into danger with. It seemed they still refused to talk.
The lotus avatar nodded and returned with Xiao Yu.
"You need to be careful when dealing with ghosts. Don't let other celestial soldiers see you, or it will cause a lot of trouble once it gets out. Even if you want to enter the Gui Ling Immortal Realm later, it won't be so easy." Xiao Yu saw that the lotus avatar didn't mean to mention it at all, so he held back for a while and directly pointed it out.
“It doesn't matter much if I don't enter the Gui Ling Xian Domain, I have already deduced my own swordsmanship.” Said the lotus avatar.
"Since you haven't joined the ranks of immortals, you wouldn't understand the difference between ordinary scattered cultivators and immortal sects, as well as those under the Heavenly Court. The resources they possess are completely unequal. Immortals in the Immortal Realm can receive more training and cultivate better techniques. There are also many cultivation realms to strive for. Wouldn't you want to ascend to a higher level, such as Xuanxian or even Tiansxian Your swordsmanship talent is indeed remarkable, but relying on yourself to stir up an ordinary, unremarkable immortal sect will only waste your cultivation time. By the time you reach that stage, I might have already ascended to Xuanxian, while you're still struggling at the Zhenxian level."
“This battle against the wolf riders, you made quite a name for yourself. Right now, we are still at war with them. The true immortals here in the Mu Kun Immortal Domain won't make things too difficult for you. If this storm passes and things calm down, if you don't have the status of heaven, there will be countless people who come to cause trouble or try to recruit you. If you accept, it's fine, but if you refuse, even on the edge of this Phantom Mist Swamp, there won't be a place for you!”
Xiao Yu's voice was firm and resolute.
The lotus avatar's figure paused, seemingly overlooking this aspect. Though unwilling to admit it, Xiao Yu's analysis wasn't a distant possibility but a reality that would arrive soon after the turmoil in the Phantom Mist Marsh ended.
Those True Immortals who came from the Immortal Realm considered themselves superior beings. How could they possibly be surpassed by someone of such low origins
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
"It seems I truly need the identity of a Heavenly Court Immortal. I'll leave this matter to Xiao Xiansi, please." The lotus avatar nodded, naturally understanding Xiao Yu's meaning.
"Rest assured, I've got this. With your accumulated military achievements, it would be child's play for you to earn a position in the Mu Kun Immortal Realm."
Xiao Yu smiled upon hearing this, "You haven't been a True Immortal for long, yet you already possess such strength. With continued diligent cultivation and passing the trials of the Immortal Realm, there is still hope for you to gain entry into the Xuan Yue Secret Realm."
"Mysterious Profound Realm"
“It's a place that can help one advance to the rank of Xuanxian, but the number of True Immortals who can enter the Xuanyue Secret Realm from a single Xianyu is extremely limited. They need to first pass the trials within Xianyu, where the superior prevail and the inferior are eliminated.” Xiao Yu imparted some basic knowledge about this matter to the lotus avatar.er."Well, how have things been going with cleaning up the remnants of Elder Ying Qingdao" After taking care of some trivial matters, Lu Xia Tian brought Xiang Qingcheng out of the Demon Subduing Pagod...
