Chapter 3126: A Feeling of Loss and Disappointment
ould simply break through the defense of his skin and enter his body. Even his more powerful Fire Jiao scales might not be able to withstand it.However, Lu Xia Tian wasn't completely helpless. He for...Hu Xiaofeng, Mo Dayou, Banhui Lama and his disciples, as well as Lin Fang naturally left with Lu Xiaotian. Yunli learned about the danger of this Phantom Mist Marsh through Yunxia Fairy and decided not to stay here to continue adventuring. After all, during this time of mining, besides Lu Xiaotian who gained the most, Yunli and the other immortals also benefited greatly.
There's no need to risk landing here for future benefits, especially after knowing the heavy losses suffered by Leiyin Immortal Sect. If not for Lu Xia Tian's intervention, I'm afraid the nearly thousand people from Leiyin Immortal Sect would have been wiped out.
Thinking about the many who had perished, Yun Li and Hu Xiaofeng couldn't help but shiver. As for Hu Xiaofeng, Lin Fang and the others were completely there to follow Lu Xiaonian into this Illusory Mist Swamp. They only needed the Yanling Zhen Dan. There was no need to risk their lives here at all.
At this point, there was no longer the heart-palpitating feeling of being targeted by the Sky Wolf. However, as long as he remained within the Illusory Mist Swamp, Lu Xia Tian dared not relax in the slightest. He only paused briefly here, and even to Luo Shan Tian's side, Lu Xia Tian merely sent someone with a verbal message before leading his group of immortals and cultivators back. Thousands upon thousands of them marched straight away.
“Eastern brother, what’s this” All the way back, he happened to meet Yun Chongyi, the head of Yunxi Immortal Sect who was stationed at the rear and allocating manpower. Seeing Lu Xiaitian leading his troops back, the other party looked puzzled.
"Immediately, a smile appeared on his face as he said, "Brother Dongfang, you have broken through to the realm of True Immortals. This is truly something to be celebrated."
“Just lucky.”
Lu Xiaitian nodded and immediately told Yun Chongyi about the dangers of Huanyumiao Swamp, omitting some details that were not suitable for outsiders.
This is a line break.
“Did the naive Wolf Tian truly wake up” Yun Chongyi’s expression shifted unpredictably. Logically speaking, given Lu Xiaoxian's recent promotion to True Immortal, his survival from such a perilous situation sounded unbelievable. However, considering that Lu Xiaoxian controlled the Ice Demon Flask, it wasn't entirely impossible. Furthermore, even without other circumstances, Lu Xiaoxian could have retreated into seclusion to consolidate his newly achieved realm as a True Immortal. There was no need to use this as an excuse. Yunxia Fairy hadn’t been so harsh on a master alchemist of such high attainment.
"Perhaps not fully awakened, but most below the True Immortal realm would struggle to stand against him. And as time passes, the power of that old demon Ying Langtian will only grow stronger. This Phantom Mist Marsh has become a vortex of flesh and blood. Most of the fighting is likely just within Ying Langtian's calculations. Staying here might offer some benefits, but if we are hit by the Howling Moon Wolf Clan, a slight mistake could lead to death."
Lu Xia Tian was still comfortable staying at Yunchia Xianzong for the time being. Yun Chongyi acted generously and with restraint, so Lu Xia Tian reminded him a few times.
“But, during this period we have gained quite a lot. To suddenly withdraw would be a pity.” As the Sect Master of Yunzong, Yun Chongyi needed to weigh the overall prosperity and safety of the entire sect, and he couldn't simply retreat with the entire sect based on the words of Lu Xiaoteng and his family. After all, while he believed Lu Xiaoteng's words, it was a secret and shouldn't be made public. Besides Yun Chongyi, several True Immortals from Yunxia Xianzong, such as Xin Hong, had a certain degree of trust in Lu Xiaoteng, but others might not believe the Elder who had only joined the sect recently.
"That's all I have to say. Anyway, I don't plan on getting involved in this mess anymore. I'll stay as far away from it as possible. As for your final decision, Master, you'll have to consider it carefully." Lu Xiaoteng had said everything he needed to say and now distanced himself from the situation. As for Yun Chongyi's final decision, that was none of his concern. After all, he had already done what he needed to do.
“Giving up completely is a pity. How about this, Dongfang, you go back and rest first. You can return to your sect if you wish. I'll stay here and take charge for now. We abandon the furthest mines for now. Let’s stay in the peripheral areas. Even if the Howling Moon Wolf Clan does make a move, other Immortal Sects will be at the forefront. It will be relatively easier for us to withdraw then.” Yun Zongyi was also decisive. After a brief consideration, he made his decision.
"Alright, Sect Master, be careful yourself." Lu Xia Tian nodded. Although he didn't completely withdraw, Yun Chongyi directly abandoned several mines just based on his word alone, which required immense courage. In fact, regardless of Yun Chongyi's decision, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't have stayed any longer. It was simply Yun Chongyi's shortsightedness or lack thereof that determined how long Lu Xia Tian would remain in the Yunjia Xianzong.
"With Dong Fang's reminder, if things go awry again, all these years of mine would have been for nothing. Rest assured in the rear, Brother Dong Fang. As for how much benefit can be gained from this Illusory Mist Swamp, while getting there first is important, ultimately it still depends on the sect's strength. If the strength is too weak, even if a fairy crystal vein is discovered, they may not be able to hold onto it." Yun Chongyi let out a hearty laugh.
Lu Xiaoteng smiled upon hearing this, Yun Chongyi was indeed a smart man. Compared to life and death, this momentary danger was nothing. As long as one is alive, there's still a chance to fight for benefits. The ownership of these benefits, before and after, isn't the deciding factor; only strength ultimately determines the final ownership of the benefits.
Yunxia Fairy and Yunli decided to stay for the time being, choosing to follow Master Yun Chongyi. With Yunxia Fairy and Yunli's talents, following Yun Chongyi would undoubtedly be among the few who received strict protection, so there wasn't much worry about danger. Lu Xiaottian didn't say much to persuade them, and directly led Hu Xiaofeng and the others back to Yunchia Xianzong, leaving this turbulent and ominous Illusory Mist Swamp as soon as possible.
"Sister, you followed Master Dongfang for so long, through thick and thin, sharing both hardship and joy. Now is the time to seize the opportunity and strike while the iron is hot. The higher his cultivation level and status become, the harder it will be to advance further later on." After Lu Xiaottian and his party left, Yun Li glanced in the direction where Lu Xiaottian had disappeared, then looked at Yunxia Fairy whose brows were slightly furrowed.
"Mr. Dongfang already has a partner, a heavenly maiden..." Yunxia Fairy thought of Xiang Qingcheng's graceful figure and peerless beauty, she couldn't help but shake her head wistfully.
"What How come I've never seen her before Is that woman really so beautiful You're not bad yourself, you have the beauty of a fish falling into water, and moon-covering flowers. I don't believe she could be better than anyone else." Yun Li was unwilling to accept this, then said with some suspicion, "Besides, where is his Dao companion Why haven't I seen him/her Could it be that you two are having a disagreement, and you made up someone"

“Mr. Dongfang is a master of magic, that pagoda holds another universe within, able to house people and objects. His companion is inside as well, we are acquainted.”

Yunxia Fairy shook her head and smiled. If the other party were only beautiful, it would be fine, but their relationship was also very good, not easily swayed by outsiders.
“Inside that pagoda, I absolutely have to see it for myself someday.” Yun Li stubbornly retorted.
