Balala the Magic Fairy

Yan Lili stood in front of the Great Qing Sect's mountain gate, surrounded by clouds and mist, and the air was ethereal. She tightly grasped the Chaos Sword, and the sword body flashed with a faint light, reflecting her resolute and cold face. Today, she decided to challenge the Great Qing Sect's deputy leader, Nian Shilan, to prove her heart and seek the truth.

Nian Shilan, known as "Ice Heart Jade Pot", has unfathomable cultivation, a calm mind, and extraordinary swordsmanship. Her figure is looming in the Qing Sect, just like a splash-ink landscape painting, making it difficult to grasp.

"Miss Yan, how are you? Do you really want to challenge this sect master?" Nian Shilan's voice came from that ethereal place, cold but majestic.

Yan Lili nodded slightly, her tone firm as iron: "Sect Master Nian, although Lili is not talented, I hope to learn from your great skills."

Nian Shilan's figure slowly emerged. She was wearing a plain white long dress and a sword at her waist. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were like clear autumn water, and her temperament was extraordinary, like a fairy who was not of this world.

“In that case, follow me.” Nian Shilan waved his sleeves lightly, and a sword light flashed across the sky like lightning, pointing straight to the sword fighting arena of the Qing Sect.

Yan Lili followed closely without hesitation. The two figures appeared and disappeared in the clouds, like two fairies descending to earth.

On the sword fighting stage, the two stood facing each other, the atmosphere was so solemn that it seemed like water could drip out. Nian Shilan's sword had already been unsheathed, the blade was as clear as autumn water, emitting a trace of cold air. Yan Lili's Chaos Sword was not to be outdone, the sword body was flowing with the power of chaos, as if it could devour everything in the world.

"Please teach me." Yan Lili bowed her hands in greeting, her tone respectful yet firm.

Nian Shilan nodded slightly, the tip of the sword trembled slightly, and a sharp sword energy whistled out, heading straight for Yan Lili's brow. Yan Lili remained calm, and with a light wave of the Chaos Sword, the fierce sword energy was easily dissolved into nothingness like snowflakes meeting the spring breeze.

The two of them fought back and forth, the sword lights flashing like stars, and the sword energy crisscrossing like raging waves. Nian Shilan's swordsmanship is just like her personality, cold but elegant, and each sword contains a profound mystery. Yan Lili relied on the domineering power of the Chaos Sword to compete with her, and each sword was extremely fierce and unreserved.

On the sword fighting stage, the sword energy was surging, and the wind and clouds changed color. The two figures shuttled back and forth in the sword light, like two dragons tumbling and fighting in the sea of ​​clouds. The disciples watching the fight held their breath, their eyes wide open, full of shock and awe.

"Miss Yan, your swordsmanship is truly extraordinary." Nian Shilan's voice rang out amid the sword light, with a hint of barely perceptible admiration.

Yan Lili did not dare to slack off in the slightest. She danced with the Chaos Sword more and more fiercely, and the wind whistled. "Master Nian, you are too kind. Lili knows that I still have many shortcomings."

In the sword light, the figures of the two gradually blurred, leaving only two dazzling sword lights intertwined on the sword fighting stage. Suddenly, a brilliant sword light shot up into the sky, instantly illuminating the entire sword fighting stage as bright as day. The figures of Yan Lili and Nian Shilan appeared in this light, the tips of their swords touched each other, their eyes met, and sparks seemed to burst out where their eyes met.

"Miss Yan, your swordsmanship may be strong, but your heart is not calm enough."

When Yan Lili heard this, her heart was shocked. She could clearly feel that Nian Shilan's sword intent contained a kind of otherworldly tranquility, which was exactly the state of mind she lacked.

"Thank you, Sect Master Nian, for your guidance." Yan Lili put away her sword and stood there, thinking about something in her mind, with a look of realization in her eyes.

Nian Shilan smiled slightly and sheathed the sword with graceful and smooth movements: "There is no shortcut in the way of swordsmanship. Only by persistent practice can you achieve success."

Yan Lili nodded solemnly, her admiration for Nian Shilan growing even deeper: "Lili has learned a lesson."

The two men smiled at each other, the sword light dissipated, and peace returned to the sword fighting arena.

"Lily, you did a great job." Zhan Tianjiao appeared beside the sword fighting arena, his eyes full of undisguised admiration.

Yan Lili turned around and looked at her best friend, a relieved smile blooming on her face: "Tianjiao, you are here."

Zhan Tianjiao nodded, a powerful aura emanating from his body. It was obvious that his cultivation had improved significantly during this period of time.

After leaving the Qing Sect, the two came to a desolate mountain range, which was once an ancient battlefield and still retains strong fluctuations of battle.

"Lily, did you feel it?" Zhan Tianjiao stopped and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

Yan Lili nodded. She could clearly feel an ancient and mysterious power coming from deep underground: "Something seems to be calling us here."

The two looked at each other and simultaneously used the Earth Escape Technique, slowly sinking into the ground. As they continued to go deeper, the surrounding rocks began to emit a faint light, as if illuminating the way forward for them.

Finally, they came to a huge underground cave. In the center of the cave, a huge crystal was suspended, and inside the crystal, there were complex and mysterious runes slowly flowing.

"This is..." Yan Lili looked at the crystal in front of her in surprise, her eyes full of curiosity and amazement.

Zhan Tianjiao's eyes flashed with enthusiasm: "This is a spiritual crystal left over from ancient times, it contains extremely powerful power."

Yan Lili took a deep breath. She could clearly feel the power in the crystal resonating strongly with her Chaos Sword.

"We can try to refine it." Zhan Tianjiao suggested, his voice full of anticipation.

Yan Lili nodded, and the two of them sat cross-legged and began to circulate their spiritual power. As they practiced, the runes in the crystal began to flicker, and powerful forces surged into their bodies like a tide.

As time passed, Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao's cultivation continued to improve. Their bodies seemed to have turned into a bottomless abyss, greedily absorbing the power of the crystal.

The figures of the two became hazy and illusory under the reflection of the crystal, as if they had merged with this ancient power. Their breath gradually synchronized with the pulse of the crystal, and every breath seemed to be a deep dialogue with this ancient land.

Time seemed to have lost its meaning in this ancient space. They were immersed in cultivation and were tireless. Yan Lili felt that every cell in her body was jumping happily. Every flow of spiritual power made her feel unprecedented fulfillment and strength.

Her heart gradually became as calm as water, just like Nian Shilan's sword intention, transcending the worldly disturbances. She began to understand that the way of the sword is not only an external skill, but also an inner practice. Her sword intention also sublimated and became deeper and purer.

Zhan Tianjiao is also undergoing earth-shaking changes. As his strength continues to grow, his state of mind becomes more calm and determined.

As time passed, the light of the crystal began to dim, while the aura of Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao became stronger and stronger, like two rising stars.

Finally, the last ray of light from the crystal was absorbed by them, and the whole cave fell into darkness. Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao slowly opened their eyes, and their eyes were shining with light as bright as stars.

"Lily, do you feel it?" Zhan Tianjiao's voice rang out in the darkness, with a hint of irrepressible excitement.

Yan Lili nodded. She could clearly feel the power in her body surging like a raging river: "I feel it. This power... is so strong beyond imagination."

“This is our chance.”

Zhan Tianjiao stood up, his figure looked particularly tall and resolute in the darkness.

Yan Lili also stood up. She clenched the Chaos Sword in her hand, and the sword made a crisp sound, as if responding to her inner call.

The two walked out of the cave side by side and came to a desolate plain. This place was once the center of the ancient battlefield, but now there was only endless desolation and silence.

"Lily, look over there." Zhan Tianjiao pointed to the distance where there was a solitary peak. There seemed to be something on the top of the peak flashing a mysterious light.

Yan Lili looked at it intently, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "Is that... an altar?"

"That should be an ancient altar." A hint of fanaticism flashed in Zhan Tianjiao's eyes.

The two looked at each other, and without further words, they rushed towards the solitary peak.

Their speed was as fast as lightning, like two streaks of light cutting through the sky in an instant. However, just as they were about to reach the lonely peak, an unexpected change suddenly occurred.

A huge crack appeared under their feet without warning, and an extremely powerful suction force came from the crack, as if it was going to swallow them up mercilessly.

"Be careful!" Zhan Tianjiao shouted, and a dazzling light burst out from his body in an instant, protecting Yan Lili firmly behind him.

Yan Lili was not to be outdone. The Chaos Sword let out a long cry, and the sword light surged out like a tide, interweaving with Zhan Tianjiao's power to form an indestructible barrier.

boom!

The suction force in the crack was offset by the powerful strength of the two people, but the vibration of the ground became more and more violent, as if the earth was roaring angrily. Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao looked at each other, and they knew clearly that this force was by no means ordinary.

"This is..." A hint of surprise and doubt flashed across Yan Lili's eyes.

"It seems to be the evil spirit of this battlefield." Zhan Tianjiao's voice was solemn, "It is preventing us from approaching the altar."

"Then let it see our strength!" A determined fighting spirit flashed in Yan Lili's eyes.

The power of the two burst out again, and this time, they no longer adopted a defensive strategy, but took the initiative to attack. The sword light and the light intertwined together, forming a dazzling beam of light that rushed straight into the crack.

Boom!

The crack was completely torn apart by the powerful force of the two people, and a strong breath surged out from the crack. Then, a huge figure slowly rose from the crack.

It was a huge stone statue, its face was hideous and terrifying, and its body was covered with traces of time. Its eyes suddenly lit up at this moment.

"Ancient evil spirit!" There was a hint of shock and fear in Zhan Tianjiao's voice.

Yan Lili tightly grasped the Chaos Sword, and there was no fear in her eyes: "Come on, let's see how powerful you are."

The stone statue let out a low roar, and its body suddenly moved. Its huge fist smashed towards Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

The two did not flinch, they dodged the stone statue's attacks flexibly and launched counterattacks continuously. Each attack hit the statue's vital points accurately, but the statue seemed to feel no pain and continued to launch fierce attacks frantically.

The battle continued fiercely on this desolate plain, and Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao had a thrilling and dangerous duel with the stone statue. Each of their attacks contained the power to destroy the world, and each counterattack of the stone statue was enough to shake the world.

Finally, after a fierce battle, the statue's movements suddenly stopped. The light in its eyes gradually dimmed and finally went out completely.

As the stone statue fell, Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao stood in the center of the plain, their eyes cast towards the lonely peak in the distance. The setting sun was like blood, stretching their shadows long, as if silently telling an endless legendary story.

The two set out again. They crossed the desolate plains, crossed the dry river, and finally came to the foot of the lonely peak.

The solitary peak towered into the clouds, and the top was shrouded in mist, looking ancient and mysterious. Yan Lili looked up and could feel a powerful force surging on the top of the peak, which seemed to be calling her eagerly.
