A female... Sword Spirit?
"Tingyu" froze, but quickly realized what was going on. "Gu Miao" didn't have enough "cause and effect" with Pei Ling. To save her and bring her up onto the Jianmu, they needed... a female Sword Spirit!

"Please, 'Immortal Emperor Ling Yi,' establish 'cause and effect' between 'Immortal Emperor Yuanya' and me."
"After all, this is only a tiny Illusion Realm. The so-called 'cause and effect' is like a dream
