The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

On the vast and boundless sea, the enormous mythical creature Xuanwu roared, its body continuously expanding.

Li Muyang, controlling the Jade Mantis, carried Shen Miao as they flew through the air, waiting for the Second Phase to arrive.

But as the massive Xuanwu expanded to its limit, it did not transform into a more terrifying form.

Instead, it exploded thunderously, turning into endless blood that surged in all directions.

In an instant, the vast sea beneath Li Muyang and his companions was dyed red.

The blood-red seawater, as if stimulated, furiously soared upwards, and in the blink of an eye, it had overflowed and covered their bodies.

The gigantic Jade Mantis struggled in the water, but the seawater kept spreading and quickly filled the secret realm, and no matter how high they flew, they were always submerged by the blood-red water.

"No good, brother-in-law, this is the last backlash of the Four Symbols Formation! All the remaining energy of the formation is now rushing towards us!"

In the blood-red seawater, the infant spirit girl cried out a warning loudly.

At the same time she issued her warning, four enormous dark shadows suddenly emerged from the dark waters.

Azure Dragon from the east, Vermilion Bird from the south, White Tiger from the west, Black Turtle from the north... the four divine beasts they had defeated were now all emerging in the water, surrounding Li Muyang and Shen Miao in the center.

The gigantic Jade Mantis immediately joined forces with Shen Miao, warily watching the four emerging dark shadows.

However, these four divine beasts' phantoms did not have any health bars.

Once they appeared, they roared in agony, and eventually, under the pull of an invisible force, all four divine beasts flew above their heads, beginning to merge in the darkness.

Seeing this, the infant spirit girl atop the Jade Mantis grew tense, "Not good, brother-in-law, this is the manifestation of the Blood Lotus Sect Ancestral Master... My father actually embedded the Ancestral Master's phantom within the Four Symbols Formation."

"Now that the Ancestral Master has manifested, we might not be able to defeat him!"

The infant spirit girl became anxious.

As the four divine beasts continuously merged in the blood water, they eventually transformed into a hideous demonic shadow.

The demonic shadow, with a blood-red health bar on its head, exuded a terrifying deterrent power.

Shen Miao, seeing the emergence of this demonic shadow, nearly burst into tears, "It's really the Blood Lotus Ancestral Master... brother-in-law! We are doomed! The Blood Lotus Ancestral Master was said to be a True Immortal during Ancient Times."

"Even if it is just a phantom, we can't defeat it!"

As the daughter of the Sect Hierarch of the Blood Lotus Sect and deeply influenced by it, Shen Miao almost knelt the moment she saw the demonic shadow.

But when Li Muyang saw the hideous demonic shadow known as the Blood Lotus Sect Ancestral Master, he was stunned, feeling an inexplicably familiar sensation, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

The hideous demonic shadow, shrouded in blood-red demonic aura, appeared to be a woman. Her arms were wrapped in blood-red chains, and a bizarre demonic sword was embedded in her back. The sharp blade of the sword replaced her spine, intertwined with her flesh.

It looked creepy and bizarre.

And atop its head, the health bar bore a familiar name.

[Ink Fairy].

The instant this health bar appeared, Li Muyang was completely dumbfounded.

What? Ink Fairy?

Li Muyang appeared utterly baffled.

But the clear sound of clashing chains rang out, and the hideous demonic shadow roared as it charged towards Li Muyang, giving him no time to think.

The gigantic Jade Mantis swung its blade arms to defend, but under the flash of its blades, the ghastly demonic shadow passed directly through the light, as if it had no physical form.

The huge chains it dragged suddenly lashed forward, and the moment the Jade Mantis was struck, it was sent flying, and a huge surge of malevolent energy emerged from it.

[Demonic Malevolence — 30%]

A new energy bar appeared in Li Muyang's vision, and under a single strike, the ghastly demonic shadow had severely injured the Jade Mantis.

Li Muyang swung his sword in resistance once again.

However, the peerlessly sharp blade arm sliced through, effortlessly severing the mountain behind the demon shadow.

Yet the demon shadow passed through the sword light once again, unharmed, and the crimson chains swung in the darkness once more, coming for him.

[Demonization—67%]

Under the strike, the emerald Mantis Blade that Li Muyang was controlling was knocked back again, and a myriad of blood-red evil auras rose from its surface.

The infant spirit girl, Shen Miao, hastily tried to help, but the blood arrows she fired also failed to harm the demon shadow.

Instead, the demon shadow flickered ceaselessly in the darkness, continuously swinging its chains to smash down.

Two minutes later, Li Muyang and Shen Miao, both covered in evil auras, were forcibly ejected from the secret realm and returned to the misty ghost town.

The infant spirit girl, facing defeat, felt somewhat dejected.

"Brother-in-law, the Ancestral Master is indeed formidable, we can't defeat her, truly we can't."

This Ink Fairy's terrifying strength was a shock to Shen Miao.

Even as she joined forces with Li Muyang, they were easily defeated and forcibly expelled from the secret realm.

Furthermore, given the reputation of the Blood Lotus Sect Ancestral Master, the confidence and morale of the infant spirit girl plummeted to rock bottom.

Yet, Li Muyang remained silent, squinting his eyes, thinking back to everything he had just seen.

Ink Fairy...

Originally, in the "Immortal Sword" game, he had released Ink Fairy in the ancient city of Nanjiang during Ancient Times, and with her assistance, defeated the demonized half-demon general, completing the game, thus obtaining the Startling Swan Immortal Sword.

According to the plot in the game, Ink Fairy later took charge of Nanjiang city, taking over from the Startling Swan Fairy to protect the city.

However, the spectral image of the Ink Fairy now appeared in the Four Symbols Great Formation set up by Shen Miao's father and had become the Blood Lotus Sect Ancestral Master... Damn! The Blood Lotus Sect was actually a succession of the Ink Fairy's path?

Li Muyang found it hard to accept.

After completing the "Immortal Sword" game, although he had guessed that even if the Ink Fairy took over Nanjiang city, she couldn't change the fate of the ancient city's destruction. After all, the darkness and chaos, the absence of immortals, these were immutable realities.

But guessing was one thing, actually seeing the demonized image of the Ink Fairy, was another.

He couldn't imagine that the spirited, witty Ink Fairy would later demonize and even become the founder of the heretical church, the Blood Lotus Sect, leaving behind a poisonous legacy.

In the dark chaos of Ancient Times, what exactly had happened that turned a good person into a demon...

Thinking of the ferocious demon shadow in the secret realm earlier, he recalled the spirited and witty fairy from "Immortal Sword."

Li Muyang felt a wave of melancholy.

Shen Miao noticed his despondency and curiously asked, "Brother-in-law, what's wrong?"

It was then that Li Muyang sighed deeply, filled with emotion.

"The founder of your Blood Lotus Sect, she used to look like this…"

Clearly, from his previous encounters in the game, the Ink Fairy wasn't supposed to be of the Demon Path.

But she had created the doctrine of the Blood Lotus Sect...

In this moment, Li Muyang felt a sense of loss, as if seeing a friend walking down the wrong path.

He even wanted to return to the "Immortal Sword" game to meet the witty and humorous Ink Fairy again.

But once the game was completed, access was no longer possible.

Li Muyang could only look at the grayed-out entry for "Immortal Sword" (Closed) on the system list, murmuring his sadness.
