There are countless geniuses in the world of cultivation, but only my junior sister Sha Diao

at the same time.

The merfolk, whom Jiang Chaoxu had described as having arrived in the cultivation world, all wore bewildered expressions upon seeing the scene before them, as if they had never seen anything like it before.

"This cultivation world..."

One of the merfolk couldn't hold back any longer and blurted out, "Has the cultivation world really fallen into such a mess?"

No, is that right?

Although the others behind him didn't speak, they subconsciously nodded in agreement.

The entire cultivation world was in turmoil, with dark clouds gathering in the sky and demonic energy soaring into the heavens. A dense ghostly aura could also be faintly seen swirling within it.

After extending their divine sense, they could even hear the roars of the demonic beasts rising and falling.

In short, it's a gathering of all sorts of demons and monsters, a scene so chaotic it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their unique abilities.

How could it be described simply by the word "chaos"?

No wonder Luo Li rushed back to his clan with His Highness's orders to mobilize manpower and seek reinforcements.

However, the Merfolk have not set foot in the cultivation world for many years. Although there are still occasional disturbances in the deep sea, it is much more peaceful than the land.

The great chaos that had recently engulfed the Merfolk was considered extremely rare by them, until they realized that it was nothing compared to the chaos in the cultivation world before them.

They initially thought Luo Li's description was an exaggeration, but now it seems to be a true reflection of reality.

He had obviously thought of this too, and his face was not very pleasant. "I already said the situation was urgent, but you all still didn't believe me."

Jiang Chaoxu told him to go back and get reinforcements, then disappeared without a trace. He wanted to put up a fight, but the other party didn't give him the chance at all.

The situation in the cultivation world couldn't get any worse, and he was really afraid that something might happen to Jiang Chaoxu, a mere alchemist, so he had no choice but to rush back to the Merfolk.

There are too many people needed, which is obviously not something that can be resolved in a few words on their jade slips, so one of the two of them must go back and explain the situation.

Jiang Chaoxu ran away, so wouldn't this task fall to him?

Luo Li had been cursing and swearing earlier, and now she regretted coming along to join in the fun.

But now, seeing the plight of the cultivation world, he opened his mouth, but suddenly found himself speechless.

Even if he wasn't one of them, he could imagine the dire situation that had been going on during that time. Putting himself in their shoes, if the Merfolk had faced such a situation back then, they probably would have ceased to exist long ago.

Fortunately, they arrived in time.

This favor has come at just the right time.

"Let's go."

The man at the head was tall and composed. Even when he saw this situation, he did not whisper among himself like the clansmen behind him. Following the fluctuations he sensed in his mind, he took the lead and set off, saying, "Go and rescue people first, just as Xiao Xu instructed."

The merfolk who had followed gripped their weapons tightly and replied solemnly, "Yes."

A moment later, in a city not far away, the cultivators were still fighting hard, many of them about to exhaust their spiritual energy.

In this situation, a young female alchemist gritted her teeth and suppressed her fear. In order to deliver medicine to her exhausted companion, she seized an opportunity and rushed over.

The battlefield was in complete chaos, with spiritual and demonic energy almost indistinguishable, a dazzling display of swords and shadows, and corpses scattered everywhere.

It's impossible not to be afraid, after all, alchemists rarely see such bloody scenes. In the past, when they went down to the secret realm, they were usually protected by sword cultivators or other cultivators.

But right now everyone is too busy to be in two places at once.

Soon, some demonic cultivators noticed her figure. They probably all knew to pick on the weak, and the easiest to bully and the one who needed to be dealt with first was the alchemist.

Just a second before the opponent's long sword came down, she staggered and threw the medicine bottle in her hand in several directions.

Then she subconsciously closed her eyes, her drooping eyelashes trembling incessantly.

She's only brave this once.

She heard her companion's urgent shouts, but after waiting for a while, she found that the expected pain did not come. Instead, a fresh sea breeze blew past her.

Ok?

The girl opened her eyes with suspicion.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she thought she heard a clear "duang" sound.

The next second, she opened her eyes wide in surprise and found herself enveloped in a large bubble, which was exactly where the demonic cultivator's knife had struck.

Then he was thrown dozens of meters away.

"Hi~ person."

A face suddenly fell down and met her gaze. "Are you alright?"

For a fleeting moment, the girl's heart nearly leaped out of her chest. Startled, she instinctively took a step back, her terrified gaze... failing to materialize.

Even in this unexpected situation, she had to admit that the face in front of her was just as exquisite and beautiful, even when viewed upside down, so much so that it did not inspire any fear in her.

The other person clearly noticed this as well, and quickly switched back to normal mode. Only then did she realize that the other person had been sitting on a bubble.

"..."

What's the difference between this and sitting on her head?

Wait, where did this person come from?

She wasn't the only one with this thought; all the exhausted cultivators present were startled, as they watched in astonishment as streaks of light fell from the sky and appeared on the battlefield.

"So beautiful... Oh wait, it seems like they're here to help us?"

Someone quickly realized what was happening.

Merfolk are renowned for their exceptional appearance, so it's no wonder that these cultivators, who had never seen what merfolk looked like before, were momentarily stunned.

Everyone became excited, especially after realizing that the newcomers seemed to be friendly forces.

Great, they're a helper; they're saved.

The merman who saved the alchemist girl jumped down and joined the battle. After quickly taking down a demonic cultivator, he suddenly remembered what he had just seen and turned to ask the other person, "Are you also an alchemist like our prince?"

"……what?"

The girl paused for two seconds before hesitantly answering, "Yes, right?"

However, what kind of thing is His Highness?

However, she does seem to be a pill cultivator.

"That's great."

The other person clearly didn't mind her scrutinizing her ears, which were obviously different from those of humans, and smiled brightly, "Do you still have any pills?"

"Ah, yes, yes." She hurriedly rummaged through a new bottle of pills. The other person's eyes lit up, and after taking it, they took out a bead brimming with spiritual energy and handed it to her.

"???"

Meeting her bewildered gaze, the merman said in a serious tone, "Our prince said that you have to pay first if you want pills from alchemists."

They still remember clearly what Jiang Chaoxu said last time.

Alchemy girl: "..."

Where did this spendthrift, naive girl come from?

At a time like this, who has time to care about these things?

However, she did indeed wrong the other party.

After all, these merfolk had never seen many alchemists. Although they were incredibly wealthy, it didn't stop them from being truly lacking in elixirs.

Moreover, they encountered Prince Jiang Chaoxu, who didn't play by the rules, and their trip back led them all astray.

Privately, they all thought this was some new trend in the cultivation world that they were unaware of.

A few merfolk nearby quickly defeated a group of demonic cultivators and cast envious glances in their direction.

I want it~

"..."

No, it's you weirdos who popped up out of nowhere.

Why does he seem a little off his mind?
