Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan - Chapter 1342 - 1140: Tragic

Chapter 1342: Chapter 1140: Tragic

As Li Zhirui predicted, in the following days, demon cultivators, devil beasts, and water devils intermittently entered the territory of Shanhai State.

Since this place hadn’t encountered much chaos before, both cultivators and mortals were less vigilant and more concentrated.

Most importantly, the cultivators in the Immortal Cities and Marketplaces weren’t strong enough, and their formations were mostly at the Mortal Realm level, even though Jiang Fengwu once led the Li family’s array masters to upgrade various formations, they were only seventh or eighth rank Mortal Realm arrays.

Only the largest and most crucial Immortal Cities had Loose Immortal Grade formations.

As long as the demon cultivators bypassed these few Immortal Cities, other places couldn’t withstand their attacks, allowing them to easily and simply collect a large amount of cultivation materials.

However, those demon cultivators, devil beasts, and water devils who wreaked havoc and committed evil deeds ultimately met unhappy fates!

Li Zhirui had foreseen such situations long ago, so he stayed in an Immortal City in the southern part of Shanhai State. Upon receiving news, he could swiftly mobilize and strike them down.

Jiang Fengwu and Mu did the same.

The three of them stationed at the passes, dealing with wave after wave of demon cultivators, devil beasts, and water devils.

Because Jiang Fengwu and Mu were weaker, Li Mingyao would conceal his identity to assist them in managing the formations.

As for Mount Wanxian, with the Mountain Protection Array and the protection of three Individual Immortal Realm Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts, there would be no problems in the short term.

If anyone dared to attack Mount Wanxian, Li Zhirui and the others could promptly return.

The high mortality rate instilled fear of Shanhai State in them, and gradually, weaker individuals dared not enter this land anymore.

Moreover, with the decisive battle of Mount Cave Abyss approaching, the demon cultivators and devil beasts found their activities restricted, unable to roam freely anymore.

In reality, within the demonic Tao and the devil race, many Human Immortals were already aware of the existence of the Li family in Shanhai State.

However, the matters before them were more pressing, and they couldn’t spare extra resources to deal with other issues, so they let the Li family go for now.

“The Li family of Shanhai State?”

Within a temporary underwater palace established by the Sea Clan, a water devil of the Individual Immortal Realm heard this name once more, involuntarily displaying a trace of fear on its face.

And it was the sole water devil Mo Qiu, who survived when the Sea Clan attacked the East Continent in force, leading a beast tide to assault Shanhai State!

“What’s wrong with you?”

A fellow clan member, noticing its abnormal behavior, asked in surprise.

“Do you remember the time I fled back to our clan in disgrace?”

Without waiting for a response, Mo Qiu continued, “We encountered the Li family back then. Their power was immense, not something a Loose Immortal could possess.”

“Hmph!”

The fellow clan member thought Mo Qiu was making excuses for its past disgrace and failure, sneering, “Just a Loose Immortal family, how strong could they be?”

“If it weren’t for the concentrated effort on Wan Family State back then, we would have already gathered the Sea Clan’s power to eliminate them.”

Mo Qiu remained silent; indeed, the Li family was no match for the Sea Clan now, but among the Loose Immortal Grade, those Loose Immortals of the Li family it fought were top-notch.

Without sending an overwhelming number advantage, no Loose Immortal clan member could defeat that seemingly frail cultivator, the female cultivator wielding a mysterious sword, or the yet unseen Array Master.

But Mo Qiu knew if it spoke these words, it would surely be ridiculed by its kin, so it chose to remain silent.

“Enough!”

The clan member said, “Let’s not talk about this! The decisive battle is imminent. If we survive this war, I’ll go to Shanhai State with you and clear your past disgrace!”

Mo Qiu forced a smile, thinking silently, is it worth it? Having barely survived, why rush to your death? I’m definitely not going with you to court death!

…

The sun rises, the moon sets, time flies.

A large number of demon cultivators, devil beasts, and water devils arrived at the foot of Mount Cave Abyss. The demonic smoke and demon energy soared into the sky, tainting the world, as if changing its color, with a hint of murderous aura in the breeze.

The cultivators from various sects within Mount Cave Abyss also felt the heavy pressure. Despite their reinforcements arriving, relying solely on the power of the Immortal Tao wasn’t enough to confront the alliance of the demonic Tao, the devil race, and the Sea Clan.

If there wasn’t external support from the Divine Path, many cultivators would have planned to leave.

After all, no matter how precious insights and comprehension were, they couldn’t compare to the value of one’s life!

“Looking back, the Cave Abyss Sect really is the center of various calamities and disasters!”

A sudden remark from an unknown cultivator provoked the memories of many cultivators.

Years ago, the Cave Abyss Sect initiated the recapture of the near-sea zone.

The outbreak of the previous catastrophe’s core was also the Cave Abyss Sect!

Recently, when the Sea Clan attempted to invade the East Continent, the major battle that erupted in Wan Family State was closely tied to the Cave Abyss Sect!

Now, this war involving the five great factions of the Primal Spirit Realm—Immortals, Demons, Gods, Devils, and the Sea—was still caused by the Cave Abyss Sect!

“It seems the Cave Abyss Sect is truly favored by the Heavenly Dao, with so many major events linked to it,” a cultivator remarked sarcastically.

But the remark provoked deep thought among many cultivators.

Although these situations appeared as disasters and calamities, seeing them from another perspective completely changed things!

In capturing the near-sea zone, the Cave Abyss Sect benefited the most, occupying the largest sea area!
