Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan -

Chapter 1283: Chapter 1110: Calm_2
"Let’s follow the senior brother’s plan and return to the sect." As Jiang He spoke, a flicker of cunning flashed in his eyes as he turned around.
Anyone who can cultivate to the Individual Immortal Realm wouldn’t be a fool, naturally discerning his good senior brother’s schemes at heart.
Yet since Xu Shenzhang’s cultivation was higher and his strength greater, in absence of life-threatening danger, Jiang He pretended not to know and dared not resist.
"Alright."
The two transformed into rainbow light, flying southwest.
Unbeknownst to them, their entire conversation was overheard by a member of the Fengxi tribe. Being in a desolate wilderness with no living creatures around, they hadn’t set up a barrier or formation to isolate themselves.
After hearing this strange conversation involving the Li family, the tribal member decided to inform Feng Buming.
"I’ll report this to the main sect immediately." Feng Buming, detecting something amiss, swiftly used a secret technique to relay the matter to Li Zhirui’s ear.
"Relic?"
Li Zhirui frowned, surprised that their probing aim was to locate an uncertain relic!
However, he didn’t waste effort on this matter because those few words revealed no other details, making it impossible to deduce any useful information.
Li Zhirui’s main focus now was that they planned to return to the sect to seek assistance from fellow disciples!
"Fellow Daoist Buming, do you know from which direction they departed?"
Feng Buming quickly inquired of the tribal member, who answered, "Southwest direction."
"Southwest..."
Li Zhirui’s mind was quick, immediately thinking of a sect - the Hundred Rainbow Sect!
This medium-sized sect was tens of thousands of miles from Mount Wanxian and tens of thousands from Cave Abyss Sect.
According to intelligence gathered by the Li family, the Hundred Rainbow Sect consisted of one Human Immortal with Great Ability and over a dozen Individual Immortals, excelling in Rainbow Light Escape Skills and various Rainbow Light Divine Skills.
"Troubles never cease!"
Li Zhirui sighed helplessly. Just after repelling the demon cultivators, their reactions unknown, now came a few cultivators seeking relics.
Luckily, coming and going, along with finding suitable allies within the sect, required considerable time, preventing the Li family from falling into consecutive battles. So long as the demon cultivators didn’t stir trouble, there was ample time for rest.
Shaking his head, Li Zhirui stopped dwelling on the matter; when trouble comes, water flows to cover it. Unless the Human Immortal with Great Ability takes action, he isn’t afraid even if another Individual Immortal arrives.
Should more come, that would be unbearable.
Nonetheless, they likely won’t invite too many people; in treasure hunts, fewer participants mean greater profits.
Time flew by; in the blink of an eye, over a month had passed.
During this period, the Li family entered a calm phase.
Aside from a few devil beasts causing chaos, neither demon cultivators nor Sea Clan troubled the Li family further.
All tribesmen were relieved and happy.
No one desires war, especially brutal battles where life is cheap.
If possible, who wouldn’t want to live peacefully?
However, the Li family’s leadership remained tense, continuing to gather intelligence from all sides.
Finally, one day, the Li family discovered the cause.
"Are you saying demon cultivators and the Sea Clan launched fierce attacks on Cave Abyss Sect from east and west a few days ago?" Li Zhirui said, somewhat shocked.
This intelligence revealed demon cultivators violated human race blood oath by teaming up with the Sea Clan.
Granted, this likely was a tacit understanding; demon cultivators wouldn’t dare risk worldwide condemnation by openly allying with the Sea Clan.
Though everyone knew the truth, at least appearances remained intact, preventing any honest person from exposing it.
"No wonder the Li family was so calm for over a month; they were preparing for this major battle."
Focusing all effort on the battle, naturally, there was no extra energy to spare on the unnoticed Li family.
Yet this was beneficial, providing the Li family a stable environment.
Curiously, in just over a month, the Li family saw the emergence of several tribesmen reaching integration, a speed unseen before.
Li Zhirui knew vaguely it was because slaying demon cultivators and water devils returned substantial mana to the world, releasing bottlenecks and allowing further growth.
"Ancestor Rui, if demon cultivators and the Sea Clan win this battle, the family will be in danger." Li Yunchang expressed concern.
He considered Cave Abyss Sect’s defeat highly likely!
After all, both the demonic Tao and Sea Clan were immensely powerful.
Yet Cave Abyss Sect was remarkable, defending against both the demonic Tao and Sea Clan with a single sect’s might.
"You’re right."
Li Zhirui nodded in agreement, pondering and saying, "But such matters are beyond the family’s involvement; we can only await the outcome."
If possible, he’d rather Cave Abyss Sect and demon cultivators both suffer severely.
That way, the dangerous situation the Li family may face next would be reduced, possibly driving the demon cultivators out!
In reality, Li Zhirui longed to join the battle!
On a battlefield entirely within the Immortal Realm, he’d observe fights among Individual Immortals and possibly Human Immortals or Earth Immortals.
Unfortunately, reality prevented him from doing so.
If Li Zhirui left Mount Wanxian now, anything negative occurring during his absence would be regrettable.
Especially before the Hundred Rainbow Sect cultivators appeared!
To return to the topic!
Upon hearing Li Zhirui’s words, Li Yunchang pondered and asked, "Ancestor Rui, what should the family do next?"
"We must wait for the outcome of Cave Abyss Sect’s battle to determine subsequent actions."
"Alas!"
Li Yunchang sighed; the family’s weak position resulted in its helplessness.
"If Ancestor Rui has no further instructions, I’ll seek out Fellow Daoist Buming, request he assigns tribal members to gather news from the Cave Abyss Sect."
"Alright, you may carry on."
Seated on a mat, Li Zhirui gazed at the distant south, murmuring, "Such a shame to miss this earth-shattering battle!"
And as he considered Cave Abyss Sect, it had already begun fighting demon cultivators and the Sea Clan.
"A group of traitors among the human race, actually teaming up with those cursed beasts, are they not afraid of bloodline curses?"
"Hahaha, who have we teamed up with? Those beasts attacked only because you’re too prosperous."
A demon cultivator at the Individual Immortal Realm chuckled, "Moreover, you have accumulated hatred with the Sea Clan over the years; given a chance, they naturally want to bite fiercely."
And among these, the matter most hated by the Sea Clan was, many years ago, led by Cave Abyss Sect, Immortal Tao forces conquered a vast near-sea territory!
This deed was a significant achievement for Immortal Tao, a badge for Cave Abyss Sect.
But to the Sea Clan, it was a great humiliation!
Losing near-sea territory greatly reduced their domain, and cultivators established various forces near the sea, eradicating water devils and seeking spiritual objects, causing annual Sea Clan casualties to surge.
For the ambitious, proud Sea Clan, what a humiliation it was?
Such that the Sea Clan consistently launched beast tides, seeking to reclaim near-sea territories.
Occasionally recovering some areas, yet scattered and unusable.
More often, the Sea Clan suffered major defeats.
Each defeat bred more resentment towards Cave Abyss Sect!
Accumulating over time, imagine how terrifying and fearsome this resentment grew!
Seeing this chance for vengeance, how could the Sea Clan miss it?
Thus, even when approached by demon cultivators, knowing it to be exploitation, they agreed unhesitatingly.
