Players: All NPCs in the Sect Are Moles

Under the blood-red sky, Su Ling’er’s body blurred into an afterimage.

She wanted to scream, to fight back.

But her body was completely out of her control, resolutely charging toward the Core Formation demon beast!

"NOOOOOO—!"

All she could force from her throat was a scream, torn and distorted by the rushing wind, as the world before her dissolved into a retreating phantom.

The massive body of the Heaven-Devouring Frost Flame Wolf rapidly grew larger in her vision.

Its enormous, demonic eyes clearly reflected her tiny, desperate figure.

"ROAR—!"

The wolf’s howl shook the heavens as a demonic aura, infused with the power of ice and fire, surged toward her, threatening to tear her to shreds!

’I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die!’

Su Ling’er felt like she had been stuffed into a frantically shaking jar.

One moment, the Heaven-Devouring Frost Flame Wolf was directly in front of her;

the next, the invisible threads violently yanked her sideways, and the entire world tilted before her eyes!

The demonic aura of ice and fire that had been rushing at her head-on became a curtain of destruction grazing past her head.

Immediately after, heaven and earth inverted without warning!

The blood-red sky suddenly appeared beneath her feet, while the dark, cracked earth hung above her head.

Her brain couldn’t comprehend her orientation. She could only watch helplessly as a giant claw swatted down at her from below—from where the sky had just been!

A massive shadow instantly engulfed her!

"AHHHG—!"

This time, Su Ling’er couldn’t even let out a full scream before the force yanked her backward again, her vision spinning wildly.

She could only see the giant wolf claw crash down where she had been moments before, smashing a deep chasm into the earth.

Once again, she had brushed with death.

Afterward, her vision became a nightmare composed of countless fragmented, terrifying scenes.

One instant, her vision was filled with infinitely magnified, ferocious fangs;

the next, she was in a dizzying spin, glimpsing the entire battlefield from the corner of her eye.

The motes of light from her senior brothers’ and sisters’ magic spells were constantly clashing with and slaughtering the countless demon beasts below;

then, she was enveloped by a Frost Flame Breath...

She couldn’t tell up from down, left from right. There was only endless tossing, tumbling, and falling.

However, under the power of the Supreme Heart-Clearing Soul-Stabilizing Skill, no matter how her body tumbled, her mind remained bizarrely clear, forced to experience every moment of it.

"AH—AHHHH—HELP ME—!"

Su Ling’er’s terrified screams were practically ceaseless.

They were so piercing that they had become one of the only two sounds on the battlefield.

Under the control of Lin Qingfeng’s "Thousand Threads Puppet Show," she continuously flipped and flew around the giant wolf.

The [Wait A Moment] sword in her hand left gash after gash on the giant wolf’s body.

「In the distance.」

The disciples clearing out the other demon beasts heard her extremely piercing screams and couldn’t help but silently turn down the volume.

They leisurely farmed the mobs while enjoying this rare spectacle.

[Qi Refining Junior Sister’s Reverse Beheading Core Formation Great Demon!!!] Recording!

[Yan Buliu]: Little Junior Sister... she’s got some pipes on her.

[Ji]: I think Little Junior Sister would be good at Sound Wave Skills! How about we hook her up with a couple later?

[Wang Xian]: Forget it... it’s too disruptive... so annoying to listen to...

[Lu Wu]: I feel like I’m having traumatic flashbacks.

[Shi Gandang]: As expected, the armor I made is badass. Even after all this, Little Junior Sister is still so full of life!

[Shi Gandang]: You’ve all seen its effectiveness! Place your orders with me! Not for hundreds of thousands, not even for ten or twenty thousand! Just 998! Take home the same model of armor!!

[Shi Gandang]: DM me if you’re interested!

In the lulls between being flung about, Su Ling’er also saw what her senior brothers and sisters were doing.

They were clearing out the small fry so effortlessly, as if taking a leisurely stroll.

It was as if those demon beasts posed no threat to them at all!

’Then can’t you guys come help me?!’

’Oh my god!’

’So I’m really the only one being used as a human puppet to fight a Core Formation demon beast, huh?!’

’I could die at any second!!’

’They really are a bunch of demonic Evil Cultivators!!!!’

’I can’t take this anymore!’

’This place is pure torture!’

’My Contracted Spirit Insects have all been wiped out, so I can’t count on the Sect Leader for help.’

’As soon as I get a chance, I’ll crawl my way out of this hellhole if I have to!’

’I still need to get back and achieve Foundation Establishment!’

Suddenly!

The high-speed threads controlling her suddenly went taut.

Her body stabilized in mid-air.

Meanwhile, the giant wolf had long since broken free of its restraints and was now erupting with monstrous ferocity!

Around its body, countless ice spikes and Fireballs condensed, forming a hell of ice and fire.

A phantom wolf apparition, even larger than its physical body, emerged and charged madly toward Su Ling’er, carrying the momentum of the heavens and earth!

’You’ve got to be kidding me.’

’How did it go berserk?!’

Su Ling’er was fuming, but she saw the [Wait A Moment] sword in her grasp rise, its tip pointing straight ahead.

’What’s it going to do?’

’Don’t tell me it wants me to take this sword and have a head-on clash with that unbelievably powerful phantom wolf?!’

The next moment, Lin Qingfeng’s voice entered her mind:

"A single thought, a flower blooms. A single sword, a green lotus."

A hazy green light bloomed from the tip of the [Wait A Moment] sword.

Then, a point of starlight blossomed, transforming into a lotus flower with green petals that slowly drifted down. It was followed by a second flower, then a third...

In an instant, thousands of dreamlike green lotus phantoms emerged from the void, enveloping Su Ling’er’s armor.

The Heaven-Devouring Frost Flame Wolf seemed to sense the fatal threat, and its charge quickened.

The Frost Flame Breath condensing in its mouth had already become a pillar of destructive light!

Su Ling’er’s body moved. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

She thrust the [Wait A Moment] sword in her hand forward in a single strike!

A streak of green light accompanied the thrust, seeming to tear through the entire blood-red world, carrying thousands of lotus phantoms to meet the peerless beast!

"BOOM—!!!"

The phantom wolf and the sea of green lotus swords collided violently, kicking up a monstrous wave!

Su Ling’er could only watch as the world-destroying Frost Flame Breath was diverted, torn apart, and annihilated by countless tiny glints of sword light the moment it touched the sea of green lotuses!

The phantom of ice and fire around the wolf was pierced through, layer by layer!

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, Su Ling’er, cloaked in thousands of green lotuses, had pierced clean through the demon wolf’s torso!

At that moment, Su Ling’er was completely entranced.

She forgot her fear, forgot to scream, and even forgot she was in mortal danger.

Her mind was completely captivated by the divine sword strike before her.

This...

’This... this is the kind of peerless Sword Immortal I want to become!’

’This is the immortal path I want to achieve!’

’Of course, I absolutely do not want to become an "Immortal Sword" in my First Senior Brother’s hands!’

At the same time, she realized that her First Senior Brother... was truly an unfathomably powerful Sword Immortal.

He could even use that bizarre "Thousand Threads Puppet Show" to make a mere Qi Refining Stage Cultivator like her personally execute such a divine skill!

The body that had pierced through the wolf didn’t pause for a moment. With a casual flick, it shook all the demonic blood from the sword’s blade.

And behind her, the massive body of the Heaven-Devouring Frost Flame Wolf collapsed with a thunderous crash.

As it fell, the blood-red sky began to shatter, and new demon beasts stopped pouring out from the fissures in the earth.

Then, the senior brothers and sisters whose job was apparently to act as her cheer squad gathered around.

"Congratulations, Little Junior Sister! Our heartiest congratulations!"

"Slaying a Core Formation demon beast while in the Qi Refining Realm! You truly are the future star of our Guixi Sect!"

Beneath her visor, Su Ling’er’s face was a sea of question marks.
