uch damage on the vicious wolf riders.The wolf riders surged past the leading warships like a whirlwind. The wolf riders lost twenty or thirty men, and those leading ships were left in ruins, like gar..."The Fish Daoist speaks well. To catch the thief, first capture the king! Kill!" The Cliff Yin Ghost King roared, his voice echoing through the domain. He had long grown tired of fighting within this lightning realm. While charging into the rat horde was more perilous, it was a one-time solution. As long as he could kill the Rat King, even if the Chi Huang Xiǎn rats didn't immediately scatter, their leaderless horde would inevitably fall into chaos.
Even though a swarm of rats might still be dangerous, it poses less of a threat to cultivators when they cannot effectively cooperate.
One after another, cultivators of the Great Ascension realm took action, their attacks causing ripples in the very fabric of this dimension.
The Sword Lotus bloomed in the void, and although Lu Xia Tian was letting Yu Xiao Qiao find her footing and protecting himself, Yu Xiao Qiao also had her own pride. She didn't want to simply stay under Lu Xia Tian's wing, living a meaningless life as just a pretty vase. Although she had been lingering in the Spirit Realm for several months, the gap in cultivation between her and Lu Xia Tian was vast, yet Yu Xiao Qiao still wanted to face the storm head-on. She wanted to use her sword to cleave through all obstacles in front of her, even aspiring one day to stand side by side with Lu Xia Tian and face every danger together.

Flowers of sword lotus bloom in the void. Yu Xia Qiao's figure disappears within them.
“I will take care of this Rat King. You just need to cover the surroundings. The hordes of rats are right here, and it's the perfect time.” As soon as Fish Xiaoqiao finished speaking, she had already stepped onto the sword lotus, disappearing from everyone’s sight in the blink of an eye. Farther away, Fish Xiaoqiao's lotus avatar fought with the Rat King - a figure with the head of a rat and the body of a man, clad in a green battle robe named Qi Huang Xian Shu. The sky was filled with sword light like a sea. The vast emptiness had transformed into a sea of lotuses.
Yu Xiaqiao's heart skipped a beat. Having failed to ascend to the Immortal Realm during her time in the Spirit World, she had regained her strength but remained stagnant in her cultivation realm. Now, encountering a certain amount of immortal energy, Yu Xiaqiao felt her realm loosen, as if she were on the verge of stepping into another level of understanding regarding swordsmanship and this world.
Upon sensing something, the nimble Xiao Qiao stretched out her finger towards empty space. With a flick of her finger, she manifested a sword, its shadow slicing through the air like a meteor falling from the sky in a breathtaking flash. That sword light aimed straight for the Rat King's brow.
The yellow-billed river rat, King Zhi, let out a shriek and his fur stood on end involuntarily.
Only to see the Rat King spit out a green light, this green light transformed into a suit of demonic armor protecting its body. Then it spread outward again, turning into a sea of green light, but Fish Xiaoqiao's finger was like entering an uninhabited realm. After a slight pause, it had already sunk into the Rat King's brow, and then pierced through the back of its head. The Qihuang Slime Rat King's body stiffened, falling from the air.
At this time, everyone’s mind was focused on the fierce blood-eyed lion that had been captured. The Cliff Yin Ghost King and the others thought there would be a great battle, as they were in charge of holding back the frenzied counterattack of the surrounding rats. They had prepared for a tough fight, but unexpectedly, with a single finger from Yu Xiaoqiao, she had already killed the Rat King, whose strength was comparable to theirs. Sensing the change in Yu Xiaoqiao's aura, all the cultivators were taken aback. If they were in her place, they probably wouldn't be able to withstand Yu Xiaoqiao's finger strike either.
Yu Xiaqiao, who stood on the sword lotus, remained suspended in mid-air. There was no joy of victory on her face after killing the rat king, only a thoughtful expression.
“This is what the realm of immortals is like. To retreat is to be mortal, and every step outside is the path of immortality.” After muttering to herself, Yu Xia Qiao, with her flowing clothes and hair dancing in the wind, looked at the distant void and smiled gently, “Master, there will come a day when Xia Qiao will not be your burden. I will also shelter you from the wind and rain.”
With the death of the Rat King, Yu Xia Qiao's aura rose steadily. The surrounding yellow-eyed rats cried out in grief, retreating like a tide.
“Xiao Qiao, you have ascended to the Immortal Realm” Jin Yu and Wu Gu supported Hong Yue as they flew up, excitedly looking at Yu Xiao Qiao.
Apart from the ferocious blood-eyed lion, even the Cliff Shadow Ghost King cast curious glances their way.
"Not yet, but it will be soon." Yu Xiaoqiao smiled faintly.
"That's wonderful, Xiao Qiao. Now that your strength has improved, we have a greater chance of rejoining Master." Jin Yu said with unconcealed excitement.
"Well, it won't be long. Let's leave the Thunder Realm first." Yu Xia Qiao nodded. Since her sword strike just now, Yu Xia Qiao had gained a few more points of fairy-like elegance and ethereal charm. The surrounding wind and thunder were more active under Yu Xia Qiao's perception. Yu Xia Qiao enjoyed this state very much.
When all the cultivators had left the Thunder Region and, guided once again by the Bagua Diagram, traveled towards the direction indicated by Lu Xiaotian, Lu Xiaotian himself ran into some trouble.
A line of ten or so brightly clad immortal generals arrived in a magnificent boat. The white boat was adorned with shifting patterns of wind and clouds, like the swirling of white clouds by the wind, its speed astonishing, arriving like a streak of light.
Originally, Lu XiaTian had appointed the old man as the guardian immortal of this place and helped him ascend to the True Immortal Realm. The intention was for the old man to use his position change to conceal the disturbances in this area. This way, Lu XiaTian could calmly await the arrival of Yu Xiao Qiao, Hong Yue, and others in the Immortal Realm.
It turns out that opening a passage between the Immortal Realm and the Spirit Realm is far more difficult than Lu Xia Tian had imagined. It took him hundreds of years, leaving him visibly exhausted. Although Lu Xia Tian managed to rest several times during the process, taking advantage of brief periods when the spatial passage stabilized somewhat, the immense drain was still difficult to bear. This endeavor of connecting the two realms is fraught with too many variables. Even though Lu Xia Tian had extensively utilized a significant amount of spatial power from the void, the space passage was still subjected to several violent shocks due to the backlash from certain interdimensional forces. One particularly dangerous incident almost caused the entire spatial passage to collapse. At that time, Yu Xiao Qiao, Hong Yue, and others were already inside the passage.

Once the channel collapses, the consequences are self-evident. Everyone will be reduced to nothing under the pressure and shattering of that space.
Fortunately, Lu Xiaitian persisted through the ordeal. He managed to weather the storm. However, Lu Xiaitian himself suffered some damage. At this time, he had accumulated certain injuries inside his body. But before he could bring Fish Xiaoqiao, Hongyue, and others over, Lu Xiaitian couldn't stop directly, so the injury must have dragged on until now.
Not until Yu Xiaqiao and the others had completely passed through the passage and arrived at Mukuno did things calm down. Before Lu Xiaotian could even catch his breath, a formidable squad of immortal generals charged towards him, directly blocking the path of Lu Xiaotian, who had orchestrated this attempt to sneak across worlds.
“Hold it! Who dares to barge into the lower realm, disrupting the celestial energy flow and damaging the foundation of heaven!” the first man with thick eyebrows, fierce eyes, and a murderous expression roared.
"I'm just an ordinary nobody, and no one ever told me that opening the Netherworld was against celestial law. I didn't know, so I hope you celestial officials won't hold my ignorance against me." Lu Xia Tian said.
