Chapter 2396: Being Used
ow are you still squeezing into this pocket 。Lu Xia Tian looked at the two people and said: 。"Senior Lu, you see, neither of us wanted to get involved. We were truly forced into this situation. We had...Breaking through to the later stage of fusion is the best outcome, naturally. If the timing isn't ripe, we should settle for something less ambitious and focus on making breakthroughs in physical cultivation first. This might be more realistic, at least it avoids unnecessary conflict with late-stage fusion monsters prematurely.

The boundless Monster Sea was brimming with an abundance that far surpassed even the prosperous Spirit City where Lu Xia Tian had previously resided. The chaotic Monster Domain, especially the depths of the Monster Sea they were currently in, was utterly unparalleled.
The greedy crane demon's vast power and the accumulated spiritual materials from its long lifespan were immeasurable. Dozens of rare materials used for alchemy alone were beyond calculation. In a chaotic demonic realm, gathering them would take an unimaginable amount of time.
>
The other three combined monsters also contributed some valuable spiritual materials, but the total amount was not as rich as that of the greedy stork crane monster.
After a fierce battle with the Crane Demon and Greedy Heron, Lu Xia Tian's injuries were no light matter. He remained on Mu Mian Island to recuperate. With his formidable fleshly body cultivated through physical training, coupled with healing elixirs, Lu Xia Tian's wounds recovered incredibly fast.
Mulberry Island also had a certain ability to recover. During the few days that Lu Xia Tian rested, the area of several thousand miles that had been devastated by the Thousand Flowers Shifting Dragon Formation had regained quite a bit of greenery.
"Mr. Xiang, your injuries seem to be stabilizing recently" Yuxue looked at Lu Xiaitian who had reappeared, with a hint of admiration in her eyes.
This is just a small test.
"It's alright." Lu XiaTian waved his hand. "It seems the people guarding Zi Jin Dragon Palace trust you quite a bit. They haven't sent anyone to find you after several days."
“The safety of the Zijin Dragon Palace is paramount. To be honest, my intention in going to Zijao Island was to seek guidance from you. I didn't expect this sudden upheaval to occur. The staff at the palace are insufficient, and if we were to dispatch them, it would inevitably leave us vulnerable to external enemies.” Yu Xue could only smile helplessly in response.
“Is that so” Lu Xia Tian didn’t deny it. Where there was power, there was conflict. The Zijin Dragon Palace governed a vast sea area of millions of miles. How could the open and hidden struggles be avoided Although Lu Xia Tian never participated in such matters, his powerful primordial spirit covered a wide range. When he detected the surrounding situation, he always heard some things about the Zijin Dragon Palace. Among them were some about the power struggle within the Zijin Dragon Palace.
"I will escort the second young lady back to Purple Golden Dragon Palace."
"Mr. Xiang thinks I'm in the way by staying on Muqing Island" Yuxue said softly.
Lu Xiaitian was about to speak when he suddenly sensed a sword intent sweeping across the horizon. This sword intent bore a resemblance to the aura of the white-clothed youth from Yuqing Immortal Palace that day.
"People from Jade Purity Immortal Palace" Lu Xia Tian raised his eyebrows.
"I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving for a while." Leaving a bewildered Yuxue behind, Lu Xia Tian vanished into the sky before she could react.
Yu Xue's eyes were filled with discontent. The entire Mu Mian Island only had one cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, and that person could just leave her behind If there were other Nascent Soul demonic beasts that landed on the island during this time, she would be in danger. However, the other party was too independent, and she couldn't control them at all. Thankfully, Lu Xia Tian had a fearsome reputation, and ordinary Nascent Soul demonic beasts wouldn't dare to easily come to Mu Mian Island. This was her only comfort.
After a moment, Lu Xia Tian stood in mid-air. He scanned his surroundings and then looked at the undulating sea surface, hesitating for a moment. Before, he had clearly sensed a sword intent, but now it was completely gone. There wasn't even the slightest trace of anyone having been there.
>
"Woof!" A flash of white light passed, and the round-bodied spirit dog appeared.
>
"Please check if anyone has passed by here." Lu Xia Tian said.
Woof woof....
The little white dog sniffed around for a few moments before barking several times towards the northwest. Lu Xiaoteng immediately rushed in the direction of the northwest.
Arriving near a reef, the surroundings were still a vast expanse of blue sea and sky. The spirit hound Xiaobai's two ears, which had been perked up, suddenly shot straight up. He stared at the sea surface and let out a low growl, appearing to be under immense threat.
Whoosh... Countless sword qi erupted from beneath the sea, weaving into a gigantic six-pointed star that descended upon Lu Xiaitian.
> The master was adept at the divine power of concealment in water. When submerged, Lu Xiaoteng remained oblivious, and even without the white dog's reminder, once he surfaced, it would be impossible to escape Lu Xiaoteng's divine sense coverage.
Lu Xia Tian didn't lean left or right, he stretched out his palm and slapped the void. A gigantic palm print struck that six-pointed star. Suddenly, there was a flash of light in the void, sword qi crisscrossed. The sea of anger churned.
"Rogue, return my second brother's life!" A short but sturdy middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and wearing tight clothes drew his sword out of the water.
The flying sword, as translucent as ink jade, was engraved with three interlaced and mysterious hexagrams. As the sword slashed through the air, one hexagram trailed behind it, seeming to draw upon the water spirits within the raging sea. Gradually, sounds of surging waves could be heard.
"I, Xiang Mo, have been fighting in the endless Sea of Demons. I have killed several demonic creatures that have formed their bodies, but I have never killed a human cultivator. You have mistaken me for someone else."
While dodging the opponent's attacks, Lu Xia Tian replied. Since the other party was from Yuqing Xian Palace and might be connected to Xiang Qingcheng, Lu Xia Tian naturally didn't want to fight them. Besides, it seemed obvious that the other party was being used right now. If he had a choice, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't want to pick a pointless fight.
“Who is your second brother And how do you know he died at my hands”
"You colluded with that ghost cultivator to kill my second brother and split his spirit artifacts. You got some of the artifacts, and also Yan's portrait Is that true" the tough man roared in fury.
>
"It's true that the painting ended up in my hands, but I forcibly took it from the ghost cultivator. The man in the painting was killed by the ghost cultivator; I didn't lay a hand on him." Lu Xiaoxiao felt a surge of joy in his heart. It turned out that the woman in the painting was named Xiang Yan, and he had gained another piece of information.
"Dare to do but not admit, before I strike you down and capture your soul for further interrogation." The robust man let out a vicious laugh.
Lu Xiaoxiao's brow was filled with killing intent, but it wasn't directed at this tough man, but rather the ghost cultivator from before.

"To capture my soul, you'd have to see if you have the ability." Lu Xia Tian extended his hand casually, five illusory mirrors of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth falling into five different positions.
"Heaven is yang, Earth is yin, Yin and Yang five elements, enter the illusionary realm!"
Layers of illusions enveloped the tough-looking man.
>
The agile man darted left and right within the illusion, his skills were indeed commendable. Relying solely on the illusion array, he managed to hold him back somewhat. His strength was clearly a notch above his second brother. However, each time the agile man attempted to break out of the illusionary realm, he was repelled by Lu Xiaoteng's main body.
The sturdy man had to expend a lot of magical energy fighting against all sorts of phantoms in the illusion. As time went on, he found it increasingly difficult to keep up.
Lu Xia Tian, who had always been absent, suddenly appeared in the illusionary realm. Looking at the panting and strong man, he said, "You have been used by that ghost cultivator. It wouldn't be difficult for me to kill you. Take care of yourself."
