ur previous plan won't work." The masked man said in a low voice. They weren't brave enough to cause trouble so close to the Ancient Sword Sect."Very well, I'll trouble you to hold the fort for me. I'...(Well, two updates today, and one more tomorrow.)

Once the arrival of the rain caused further delays, Lu Xiaotian's side was still unable to make any breakthrough progress. The other three Mu Jiao people also arrived as reinforcements, and even with a powerful and dubious Demon Vine Spirit on their side, it was extremely difficult for them to escape. Even if they could eventually break free, they would inevitably have to pay a heavy price. This was clearly not the outcome Lu Xiaotian desired.

Lu Xiaotian frowned. He could seriously injure or even kill Jiao Xiong, but what worried him was the reaction of the remaining Mu Jiao people afterward. Would they become even more frenzied after Jiao Xiong's death, or would they hesitate and be stunned by his demise, allowing them to retreat calmly

At this time, Lu Xia Tian continuously sent out threads of spatial power into the surrounding space within the law domain. Once he launched an attack, to achieve the effect of taking the initiative, he would inevitably need to mobilize a large amount of spatial power to temporarily completely break through the blockade of the law domain. However, doing so would inevitably lead to increased consumption of his own spatial power, making it difficult to sustain the penetration of the law domain. Lu Xia Tian estimated that such an attack could only erupt at most twice before being forced to cease due to excessive consumption, and the law domain formed by the Fa mirror cloud would completely close. If he was unlucky, after performing one attack, this law domain might close completely.

As the reinforcements of Mu Jiao people drew closer, Lu Xia Tian weighed his options and made a decision. The headache could wait; first, he had to overcome this immediate obstacle.

At this moment, Lu Xiaoteng stretched out his hand and pointed into the void. A point of sword light, following the unfolding spatial power, flew out. It seemed that the sword light moved extremely slowly. Under the endless azure light waves, it was as difficult to break through as ascending to heaven.

In fact, it took only a blink of an eye for this sword energy to condense into a serene flying sword and arrive above Jiao Xiong's head for a strike.

Suddenly, the situation turned dire, especially for Nie Qian Tong and his companions who were utterly shocked. Under the suppression of this Dharma Mirror's cloud, even the Mùjiāo clan needed two individuals to join forces to unleash such a fierce attack, just like how Jiao Xiong and his clan members had attacked the fleeing Nie Qian Tong before.

Nie Qian Tong was also able to escape due to her prodigious talent and the use of the Crocodile Abyss Gold Arrow, with Lu Xia Tian's assistance.

Lu Xia Tian, as a genuine human immortal, managed to intercept the combined attack of Jiao Xiong and his clan without any external help. Relying solely on his own divine powers, he first blocked their assault. Then, he unleashed this strange and unpredictable flying sword, exceeding everyone present's expectations. They couldn't figure out how Lu Xia Tian managed to temporarily break through the limitations of the Fa Jing cloud.

But that was no longer important. Jiao Xiong, with a face full of terror, spat out a mouthful of purple light, facing the soul-origin flying sword that slashed down. The purple light was split in two by the sword intent. Immediately, the sword shadow directly plunged into his body. Jiao Xiong let out a scream and fell from the void.

“Jiao Xiong!” At this moment, the Mujiao woman who had come to reinforce exclaimed in surprise. She didn't even bother attacking Lu Xiaitian and instead, her figure flickered several times, coming to Jiao Xiong’s side and catching him.At this time, Jiao Xiong was pale with blood gushing from his mouth continuously. However, what slightly reassured Jiao Yan was that although Jiao Xiong was severely injured, it wasn't fatal. But seeing the sword intent still lingering in the air, Jiao Yan’s face became a little doubtful. If these residual sword intents had fallen just now, she wouldn't have been able to arrive in time. It would have been enough to destroy Jiao Xiong’s soul. The other party had actually held back at the crucial moment.

"The Immortal Mirror Tree has grown for countless ages. Whether it's the immortal fruits, leaves, or its sap, there is enough to share among many people. I don't care about others, but if you lot continue to pressure us, next time we will not show any mercy."

Lu Xiaoxiao reached out his hand and pulled the seven purple rings from the void. Because Jiao Xiong was unable to control their power, it had been greatly reduced. Even a Xuanxian would find it difficult to resist these rings alone, but without a master's control, they posed no significant threat to Lu Xiaoxiao.

“Leave the demon soldiers of Jiao Xiong behind!” The other two Mujiao people also came to aid, one from a distance and one closer.

"Then it depends on whether you have the ability. You can come and take it anytime, but don't blame me for not warning you." Lu Xia Tian put the Purple Ring and Purple Fork into his hands. Even if he didn't kill Jiao Xiong, severely wounding him was a good result. Being injured by his soul essence flying sword, even with pills to treat the soul, it would take a thousand or two years to recover his combat strength. In this situation, whether to take his life wasn't that important anymore."

Let's go.

"Good!" Wen Tingfeng's sword forced back the enemy across from him. At this time, the Mu Jiao person was worried that after Lu Xiaoteng severely injured Jiao Xiong, he would charge over here. With his strength, dealing with Wen Tingfeng was still not a big problem, but facing the combined forces of Lu Xiaoteng and Wen Tingfeng who could shake off the pressure of the Fa Jing Yun, he was outmatched. At this moment, he could only take advantage of Wen Tingfeng wanting to retreat and hurriedly pull away the distance between them. He quickly regrouped with his clansmen who had arrived from behind before making further plans.

Lu Xia Tian and a few others took the opportunity to retreat.

The several Mu Jiao people who had gradually gathered together were also somewhat hesitant at the moment. If they waited for seven or eight Heavenly Immortal-level powerhouses, even if they severely wounded a powerful enemy in battle, the remaining five would directly charge up.

Only Lu XiaTian and Nie QianTong, two powerful individuals who could partially break through the limitations of the FaJing cloud, gathered together. There were also a few others with impressive strength. Even if these five joined forces and attacked, it would be difficult for them to gain any advantage against such a formidable group.

"Just let them go like that" Holding onto Jiao Xiong, Jiao Yan's face was full of unwillingness.

“It’s not going to be easy, with only five of us we can’t possibly hold them back.” Chi Konghun shook his head and said, “My strength is slightly less than Jiao Xiong’s, and even Jiao Xiong was severely injured. If we try to chase after them, half of us might not even survive. Let them escape for a while first. We should gather the rest of our clan and then seek them out later.”

>That's all there is to it.

As the group of wood cultivators watched Lu Xia Tian and his companions leave, Jiang Yuan secretly looked at Lu Xia Tian with astonishment. A fourth-rank alchemist with extraordinary combat power, he was able to ignore the suppression of the Fa Jing cloud, which even she found unbelievable. Until now, Feng brother and sister, Lou Yi Kong, and Fu Lian Yue had all been secretly eroded by Jiang Yuan's Xi Xian Mo Teng, making them negligible threats. As for Mu Xia, she had already been infiltrated by Xi Xian Mo Teng before meeting Lu Xia Tian, rendering her equally insignificant.

Not only has a Thousand Child Demon Crocodile, Nie Qian Tong, appeared before them, but Lu Xia Tian's strength has exceeded expectations. The corrosion of the Eroding Immortal Magic Vine has little effect on Lu Xia Tian, and Jiang Yuan hasn't found any chance to corrode him until now. Jiang Yuan is even worried that Lu Xia Tian might see some clues, so he doesn't dare to try anything at all.
