Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan - Chapter 1325: 1131: Accident_2
Chapter 1325: Chapter 1131: Accident_2
Two flowers bloom, each representing one branch.
In the distant Wan Family State, deep in a small mountain to the west, dozens of cultivators hide here.
They were once a small local family, but due to the massive invasion of the Sea Clan, they have become like rootless duckweed, forced to hide here.
They are all waiting for a glimmer of good news from the distant battlefield.
In the meantime, all units need to hold fast to prevent another enemy attack..
In the vast Wan Family State, one cannot tell how many forces have fled due to Sea Clan attacks or at the sight of the Sea Clan.
Boom——
The dozen or so people hiding in the cave suddenly hear a violent rumbling sound.
Someone immediately flies into the sky, trying to gaze far into the battlefield where countless cultivators and Water Devils are fighting.
Unfortunately, they can’t see anything.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield.
“Kill!”
“Exterminate the Water Devils!”
Countless cultivators roar, spells flying from their hands, a flood of Spirit Light converging, and in the next moment, numerous Divine Powers burst forth magnificently.
The low-level Water Devils in front are utterly unable to withstand it; heads roll, blood splatters everywhere.
But who knows how many Water Devils the Sea Clan has summoned this time? Even if thousands of cannon fodders perish, or even all of them die here, as long as they hold Wan Family State, they will be victorious!
At the same time, the stronger members of the Sea Clan also launch an attack.
Although the cultivators have long set up a defensive camp, it is heavily scarred under the Sea Clan’s fearless and relentless assaults, unable to hold out much longer.
The battlefield of mortal creatures is like a gigantic meat grinder, with limbs and flesh scattered everywhere, blood pooling into streams, bodies piling into mountains—a hellish landscape of corpse mountains and blood seas.
Both sides have only been fighting for a day, but the heavy casualties are shocking to witness.
Even those veterans of countless battles, who are accustomed to life and death, whether cultivators or Sea Clan, feel a crack in their cold, stone-like hearts.
One can see how fierce and brutal this battle is!
Wisps of green smoke rise skyward, the stench of blood so thick that it’s overwhelming even from dozens of miles away. Every living creature, even those beasts and birds without Spiritual Intelligence, keeps far away from the battlefield.
The mortal realm battlefield is incredibly brutal, and the immortal realm battlefield above is equally intense!
The Sea Clan has dispatched over a hundred Individual Immortals, more than ten Human Immortals, and even two Earth Immortals to bolster the ranks, showing their determined resolve to capture Wan Family State.
The Cave Abyss Sect and Yumen He Family, who have laid ambushes in Wan Family State, have also sent dozens of Individual Immortals and several Human Immortals.
Later, Earth Immortals came to confront the Sea Clan, but because the Earth Immortals’ battle power is too strong, their might too great, both sides tacitly refrained from engaging, leaving the Individual and Human Immortals to fight it out.
No one would have thought that barely over a hundred years after the last catastrophe, such a ‘high-end’ battle would break out once again.
On the battlefield, both sides have victories and losses, unable to gain a decisive advantage, only filling the gap with lives, fighting with all their might.
A giant figure a hundred feet tall, with skin like black iron, wielding a giant axe, swings and hacks fiercely. The Water Devil Individual Immortal it fights seems frozen in place until the axe blade crashes down, sending agony surging through its body, but it’s too late; it dies with resentment.
Yet the Sea Clan also has talented individuals, striking frequently, if not to kill, then to injure, weakening the enemy’s strength.
Several battles fail to show a clear advantage or determine victory, so both sides sink into a stalemate, a protracted battle.
And this cannot be resolved in a day or two.
But whether it’s the Cave Abyss Sect, Yumen He Family, or the Sea Clan, none intend to retreat because everyone knows Wan Family State’s significance.
In fact, the Cave Abyss Sect and Yumen He Family already somewhat regret using Wan Family State as bait in their strategy layout!
Because neither family initially anticipated that the Sea Clan would be so decisive, directly sending over a hundred Individual Immortals, dozens of Human Immortals, and even two Earth Immortals to guard.
They dispatched so many cultivators to take advantage of the Sea Clan’s newness, striking later but with more preparation, attempting to kill the immortal realm Water Devils.
But now, given the situation, their initial plans can’t be implemented.
…
The distant Shanhai State knows nothing of the battlefield; Li Zhirui is already contemplating his own Dao path.
After all, the Li family cannot concern itself with matters so far away.
Such thoughts are better spent caring more for one’s future cultivation path.
Li Zhirui’s cultivation techniques, derived from a hundred years of seclusion, align well with the “Earth Spirit Tao Record.” More accurately, the cultivation techniques he derived feel seamless and unified.
Because these were originally developed by Li Zhirui based on his own insights.
If other clan members were to learn it, their results would likely be half as effective.
“Ancestor Rui! Bad news! A large number of Devil Beasts have appeared south of Shanhai State, slaughtering and looting everywhere, faintly advancing towards Mount Wanxian!”
A sharp voice rings out at that moment.
“Have the Sea Clan and Devil Race joined forces?”
This is Li Zhirui’s first thought, but he quickly realizes it’s incorrect.
If they had allied, why would these Devil Beasts attack the Li family instead of heading straight to the battlefield, to flank the cultivators along with the Sea Clan? They might not wipe out the cultivators, but with a surprise attack, they could certainly inflict severe losses, hindering any further contention with the Water Devils.
“If not, then this must be those Xiongnu capitalizing on the chaos, trying to fish in troubled waters!”
Li Zhirui’s lips twitch in a smirk, offering a hint of mockery and disdain.
Since when did the Devil Beasts near Shanhai State become so bold?!
The Devil Beasts near Shanhai State aren’t just in the Changli Mountain Range; many exist in the barren regions of some mountains, areas once used by the Li Clan for trials until opportunities arose in the Changli Mountain Range, prompting the Li family to abandon their former territory.
There must be forces secretly propelling this from behind; it’s just unclear which forces at present, but it can only be a few.
“What strength do those Devil Beasts possess?”
“There are many, but the strongest is only a Seventh Rank Devil Beast.”
“No way!”
Li Zhirui suddenly exclaims: “If that’s the case, the family wouldn’t have sent you here for help.”
“The Clan Leader didn’t say much to me, just urged me to hasten Ancestor Rui’s return to Mount Wanxian.”
“Hmm?”
Li Zhirui ponders for a moment, speaks to Li Zhixuan and Jiang Fengwu, then sets off for the clan lands.
Before long, he sees the towering mountains where innumerable clan members reside—Mount Wanxian.
The usually composed Li Yunchang is surprisingly waiting anxiously for Li Zhirui outside the clan lands.
Seeing him, Li Yunchang immediately approaches and transmits, “Ancestor Rui, a group of strange and eerie creatures have appeared in the Changli Mountain Range, filled with a chilling aura, fearing the Sun, yet growing stronger at night.”
“Due to a lack of understanding, the clan has suffered numerous casualties in initial skirmishes.”
Saying this, Li Yunchang’s expression turns very grave, and even through the transmission, one can hear the gravity in his tone.
“Most astonishingly, they seem endless; despite being slain yesterday, they reappear the next night!”

“Hmm? Such an oddity?”
Hearing this, Li Zhirui also finds it strange, thinking for a moment, then saying: “I will head to the Changli Mountain Range immediately, see them tonight, understand the situation, and then devise a way to resolve it.”
“Thank you for your effort, Ancestor Rui!”
Li Yunchang quickly bows, and Li Zhirui, having rushed back, doesn’t even enter the clan lands before setting off north again.
“It’s no trouble.”
Li Zhirui waves his hand, instantly transforming into Spirit Light for a flying escape.
In just a moment, he arrives at the Immortal City outside the mountain range.
The many clan members stationed in the city, upon seeing Li Zhirui, can’t help but burst into cheers, feeling assured that with him here, there’s nothing to fear.
“Everyone rest for now; we’ll fight those unknown creatures tonight!”
In fact, as soon as he heard Li Yunchang’s description, he thought those creatures sounded very much like
