I make a contract with myself

Scenes similar to Feng Chen's are playing out every moment.

The battles faced by elves are especially difficult.

Xia Ling'er is an elf user, and quite powerful at that. She possesses two spirit-level ninth-grade elves, and usually fights a group of them by herself.

"Shining, retreat and just hold the line."

"Honghong, Xiuxiu, Mei, don't be reckless. If you can't beat us, just run away. We're very strong."

Xia Ling'er, holding Tuan Tuan in her arms, sat in the driver's seat, directing the elves in battle.

Unlike Sun Yan, Xia Ling'er's contracted mechanical race is more inclined to use drone swarms for attacks, which are under the unified command of her main body.

Incidentally, Chu Shudai has already piloted a Gundam.

Xia Ling'er is the most orthodox elf wielder. Each elf is more powerful than the last, but Xia Ling'er herself is fragile. If her cultivation level is not high enough, she would probably have difficulty walking alone in the starry sky.

A single Spirit-level Elf is not qualified to venture into the starry sky alone.

"Tsk, we can't beat them."

Seeing that more people were coming, Xia Ling'er didn't linger in the fight. She fought and ran, slipping into the trap zone.

Both sides stopped.

Xia Ling'er began her provocation: "You guys think you're so tough? Come on, hit me! Tsk tsk, you're useless even when I give you a chance..."

Those powerful individuals of various forms kept their distance from him and were not fooled at all.

Having cultivated to this level, few people have a bad temperament. Even knowing there's a trap ahead, the other party still uses provocation, hoping you'll act impulsively and fight them to the death.

Only a fool would lower himself to her level.

So they each kept watch over her using their own methods, and then they all left.

Xia Ling'er quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I didn't fight to the death. They outnumbered me, and I really couldn't win.

As for the trap, it looks intimidating, but it's actually just a spatial teleportation array for escaping.

Now that no one was around, she calmly activated the spatial teleportation array and returned to the Otherworldly Pass.

The outsiders had only been gone a short while when they discovered they had run away. It was incredibly disheartening.

After Xia Ling'er returned, she asked the injured elf to find a doctor for treatment, while she herself dragged her tired body to check the current situation.

Simply put, it's terrible.

The multiple lines of defense they set up, which stretched from tens of thousands of miles outside the Starry Sky Pass, were reduced to a thousand miles, and then further reduced to the Starry Sky Pass itself, the last line of defense in the heavens.

Xia Ling'er scratched her head in frustration: "The Ancient Spirit World is still shining, and the number of enemies will only increase. How long can we... hold out?"

Yun Yun sighed softly, "It might be in the next three to five years."

Within five years at most, the flames of war will reach the ancient spirit world's homeland, and their home will become a battlefield.

All of this was unstoppable.

Even if there are many half-legendary figures, can they outnumber the countless powerful beings in the starry sky?

Only legends remain.

But even Sun Yan failed, so who else can they rely on?

In Yun Yun and Xia Ling'er's view, if even the most perfect human cannot succeed, then others should not even bother joking; they would find it difficult to even take half a step.

Duan Rong is very talented, isn't she?

She has worked so hard for so many years, yet she remains a sword god, unable to take that final step.

Lin Xiaoyu is a born Daoist master with unparalleled talent among her peers, but let alone half a step into legend, she hasn't even reached the ninth level of the ninth grade of the Spirit Realm yet.

Moreover, it's still far from that.

beep!

Just as the two women were chatting, a piercing alarm suddenly went off.

Another Protoss warning; it's almost become a daily occurrence.

Yunyun turned on the distant surveillance camera and saw a warship speeding towards them.

"Can you stop them?" Yunyun asked.

"I'm afraid not, you see..."

The carp spirit moved a little further away, and when it sensed the spiritual sense sweeping over it, it decisively cut off the monitoring and hid in the starry sky.

The surveillance has stopped.

However, after the warship sailed away, several streaks of light chased after it and soon overtook it.

Before long, a stream of light descended upon the Starry Sky Pass.

Yun Yun frowned slightly, growing increasingly alarmed as she looked: "Tsk, this is big trouble. There's more than one group of people..."

Surveillance is not a panacea, especially given its vast scope and distance, so the Protoss's capabilities are indispensable.

Judging from the images transmitted back by the Carp Star Spirit, apart from the warships, there were at least three other groups of people, and judging from the auras they emitted, they clearly did not belong to the same cultivation system.

According to Chu Yi's calculations, they will run into the pass of the alien gods.

Of the eight star-space passes, the overall strength of the Otherworldly Pass isn't particularly strong, but considering all the miscellaneous factors, it can at least rank fourth or fifth.

However, Sun Yan was crippled.

Losing one of him is no big deal; we can manage with Yue in charge.

However, without a spirit master, the spirits' combat strength will inevitably be affected.

It should be noted that most of Sun Yan's elves are key combat forces in the Otherworld Pass.

As time went on, without an elf to back them up, the elves' morale weakened considerably due to fatigue and internal injuries.

Yunyun checked the home security camera footage and found that Sun Yan was still sunbathing, looking quite content.

Xia Ling'er frowned: "It's been five years, hasn't it?"

Sun Yan said helplessly, "I was only able to get out of bed three years ago. Now my body is better, but my spiritual energy is sluggish and I can't fight. I can only rely on you."

Yun Yun stroked her chin, pondering for a moment: "The traps we set up earlier..."

Before Sun Yan could express his opinion, he had already made up his mind.

Setting up those traps was indeed troublesome and costly.

But if we don't use it now, it will be too late to regret it once the Otherworld Pass falls.

"I'll go."

Xia Ling'er volunteered.

A trap needs bait, and she was neither too strong nor too weak—just right.

Yun Yun cautioned, "Be careful, there are... a lot of enemies."

As for whether it's strong or not, to be honest, I don't know.

But as long as there's no legendary figure among them, few can stop Xia Ling'er if she wants to run away.

Xia Ling'er had only rested for a short while when she summoned the spirits and once again ventured into the starry sky, only to be swallowed by darkness.

Leading by example is not a good habit, and if you add the saying "If you walk by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet," it usually doesn't end well.

Xia Ling'er fits both criteria perfectly.

There was no other way; we were short-handed, so I had to do everything myself.

So, when she used herself as bait, everything went smoothly, and the trap was about to be triggered...

"Elf... Elf Master..."

Xia Ling'er heard it.

The language is the language of the ancient spirit world, and it is known that the path she cultivates has a slight possibility that she is a friend from beyond the heavens, just like the moon.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Crack! ... Bang!

The trap was triggered, and the starry sky collapsed completely, burying all life.

Xia Ling'er calmly walked out of the birthhole, looking embarrassed: "What they were saying just now was... Oh my god, did I trick the wrong person?"

Not far away, the warship was still there, with several young people on board.

Xia Ling'er was very cautious, hiding on Shining's body and quietly releasing a drone.

Through the electronic eye, she saw a chessboard, with images on each piece, some human and some alien.

The human side seems familiar; I feel like I've seen them somewhere before.

On the other side, there was a mermaid wearing fish scale armor, carrying a golden trident.

This image looks like a sea god from the sea tribe.

Xia Ling'er blinked, stunned for a long time.

It took so long that the other person, dragging his injured body, looked at her with a strange expression, hesitant to speak.

"You... sigh, never mind. Luckily I didn't slack off in my cultivation, otherwise I would have really lost my life this time."

He died right in front of his own house!

But it doesn't matter anymore, because he finally... went home!
