Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan - Chapter 1344 - 1141: Defeat

Chapter 1344: Chapter 1141: Defeat

“What a pity!”

A deep voice sounded not far from Li Zhirui.

Startled, his face changed dramatically, and he immediately cast a Defense Divine Ability on himself, simultaneously throwing several streaks of Spirit Light towards the source of the voice.

“No need to panic, young friend, I mean no harm.” The newcomer easily brushed away Li Zhirui’s attack, his expression calm as he spoke.

It was only then that Li Zhirui realized the newcomer was an Earth Immortal, someone whose power vastly exceeded his own.

Realizing the situation, he decided to heed the advice and refrain from further action, as the disparity in strength was enormous—there was no way he could be a match, and even if he used all his skills, he couldn’t harm the opponent.

Similarly, if this person intended harm, they would have acted long ago; Li Zhirui hadn’t even detected the person’s presence before they spoke.

“Greetings, senior.”

Li Zhirui greeted respectfully, without revealing his family background, while secretly connecting with the space, ready to escape there at the first sign of danger.

“Hmm, quite polite indeed.”

The Earth Immortal smiled, suddenly asking, “Who do you think will win this great war? If you guess correctly, I’ll grant you a chance of fortuitous encounter.”

“The Immortal Tao and Divine Path.” Li Zhirui replied without the slightest hesitation.

It wasn’t for the chance of fortuitous encounter; he simply dared not slight an Earth Immortal.

Although the current battlefield situation was evenly matched between the two great alliances, ultimately, it was the Immortal Tao’s home ground. Moreover, the Demonic Tao, Devil Race, and Sea Clan each harbored ulterior motives, unable to sincerely collaborate!

The fact they could hold their ground was just due to their slightly superior strength. If this advantage were broken or another weakness discovered, the alliance would collapse.

“Your answer is not entirely wrong, but it’s not entirely right either.”

The Earth Immortal smiled and shook his head, reminding, “Have you forgotten that there are other factions in the Primal Spirit Realm?”

“The Human Dao?”

It was the only answer he could think of at the moment.

“There’s another one you’ve encountered before: the Ghost Clan!”

Hearing this, Li Zhirui was astonished. He indeed had seen the Ghost Clan, but how did this great ability know about it?

“Hahaha, I am of the Ghost Clan, so how wouldn’t I know you’ve encountered my newly emerged clansmen?”

The Ghost Clan Earth Immortal looked at Li Zhirui with a half-smile, saying, “If you hadn’t harbored goodwill and spared my clansmen back then, you wouldn’t be standing here having this conversation with me today.”

Li Zhirui gave an awkward smile. He hadn’t acted out of goodwill back then; it was out of concern for a larger plot, making him hesitate to act.

Unexpectedly, that caution saved his life.

“The Ghost Clan has actually existed since ancient times, but problems in the Netherworld led to the complete blockade of the Yin Yang realm boundaries, causing the Ghost Clan to vanish from the outside world.”

The Earth Immortal seemed to be talking to himself, yet explaining to Li Zhirui, “But with the advent of the Divine Path, establishing the Heavenly Court and harmonizing Yin and Yang realms, the Ghost Clan, which had stayed in the Netherworld for countless years, could enter the Yang Realm again.”

“Meanwhile, the Yin God lineage is about to reemerge, currently the most powerful among the Divine Lineage, far surpassing the Star God and Water God.”

“However, when the Divine Path established the Heavenly Court, knowing of the Yin God’s existence, not a single one of the Six Great Emperor Venerables is a Yin God. At that time, the Heavenly Court and Divine Path will once again be thrown into chaos.”

“Senior! May I know the purpose of telling me all this?” Li Zhirui wasted no time, seizing a momentary gap to ask.

“Indeed, there is a request; not for me personally, but for the entire Ghost Clan.”

Li Zhirui was shocked at heart; the entire Ghost Clan? From his previous words, it wasn’t hard to infer that the Ghost Clan’s heritage was by no means inferior to the current major factions!

Such a terrifying, powerful force actually had something to request from him, a mere Individual Immortal!? It sounded incredible.

“Taiyin and Sun, the two Star Gods are your descendants, so I’d like to trouble you to contact them, asking them to leave the Yin Moon and Yin Sun in the Netherworld, perfecting it for the benefit of the Ghost Clan.”

“As long as the two Star Gods are willing, they will be the most esteemed guests of my Ghost Clan in the future, and we will also bestow the Li family with an extraordinary opportunity.”

The Earth Immortal softly said, “Would you not want to know what kind of legacy is hidden in the relics the Cave Abyss Sect found? Our Ghost Clan can also reveal it.”

“A method to break through to Heavenly Immortal?”

“Exactly!”

The Ghost Clan Earth Immortal chuckled softly, saying, “This Method was actually created in ancient times, but back then, the Spiritual Energy was abundant, and the world was in rapid development. Breaking through to Heavenly Immortal and transcending the Primal Spirit Realm, while difficult, was not impossible, so the Method wasn’t valued at the time.”

“However, with the development and expansion of various Dao paths, the excessive extraction from the world led to the gradual thinning of Spiritual Energy, making the barriers to transcendence more numerous, the difficulty greatly increased, resulting in fewer and fewer beings reaching transcendence, until none remained!”

“Additionally, the Earth Immortals back then, in their fight for transcendence, exploration, and pursuit of more profound and mysterious Great Tao, ignited a world-encompassing war where the Method was lost, and the complete division of the Yin Yang realms also happened at that time.”

“But ironically, my Ghost Clan and the Yin God lineage benefitted from the disaster, and still preserve this Method!”

Saying this, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

It appeared that the war back then hadn’t left the Ghost Clan unscathed; it might have been very severe.

If not, the Ghost Clan Li Zhirui previously encountered shouldn’t have all been newly emerged ghosts below the Mortal Realm, and if the Ghost Clan truly had accumulated and settled for so many years, they should have made a grand entrance like the Divine Path, announcing themselves to the world.
