Chapter 1309: Chapter 1123: Great Victory_2
According to Jiang Fengwu’s speculation, they must have been under attack by the devil beasts.
If Li Zhixuan hadn’t shown up at the end, with a powerful and terrifying aura to intimidate the devil beasts into retreating, it’s uncertain if even ten percent of the clansmen from those two squads would have survived!
The two Integration clansmen had done their utmost to protect the others, but their cultivation was ordinary, and while they might stand a chance against devil beasts of the same realm,
they faced opponents whose cultivation was higher and in greater numbers, barely able to protect themselves, let alone others.
"Is the Devil Race planning to occupy the Changli Mountain Range, and dispatching a large number of devil beasts for reinforcement?"
Li Zhixuan furrowed her brows; if not for this reason, there was no way to explain why so many Seventh Rank devil beasts appeared here suddenly.
It’s known that the recovery of spiritual energy in the Changli Mountain Range has only happened in recent years, a short time, making it impossible for so many Seventh Rank devil beasts to have naturally emerged, they must be outsiders!
Only a force as powerful as the Devil Race could mobilize such a large number of devil beasts, especially those of different species that normally bear grudges against each other.
In the nearby area, the only place with such capability is Qian Valley, which lies almost ten thousand miles to the west!
Because of its unique geographical features, it became a natural hideaway for devil beasts and gradually evolved into a domain of the Devil Race.
"The Qian Valley Devil Race is overextending their reach!" Li Zhixuan frowned and suddenly thought of another possibility, which is their intention to further expand their power.
If she remembered correctly, Qian Valley is also near the Boundary Mountain Range that borders both East Continent and Northern Domain.
Previously, the lack of spiritual energy was the main reason the Devil Race didn’t expand their influence into the mountains, but now it’s different; with the explosion of spiritual energy, their ambitions naturally grew.
"Hmph! Their greed knows no bounds, aren’t they afraid of choking!"
As Li Zhixuan recalled the clansmen lost to the devil beasts, her expression became increasingly grim.
The Changli Mountain Range was already an area recognized by the Li family as their territory, and they would never allow it to be taken by the Devil Race!
"Everyone, take a rest. Heal if you must, I will lead you all to avenge us."
Li Zhixuan planned to personally take action, slaughtering those Seventh Rank devil beasts, reducing the beast power in the mountains to a level that wouldn’t threaten the family.
At the same time, she aimed to buy time to prepare the family for a major battle since the previous purge revealed a significant number of Seventh Rank devil beasts in the mountain range, and with current strength, capturing them all might be difficult.
"Those beasts are clueless! Despite the distance, they dared to provoke the tiger’s whiskers of the family. This time, a severe lesson must be taught."
Upon receiving the news, Li Yunchang immediately let out a series of cold laughs. Though his approach was usually cautious, there would be no compromises when it came to protecting the family’s interests!
Hence, Li Yunchang swiftly convened the Elders, rallying everyone to stand as one to face the impending great battle.
Everything was being organized busily yet orderly.
The devil beasts in the mountains also perceived that the previous ambush had made the Li family cautious, but they certainly wouldn’t give up easily. Thus, the Li family was likely gathering strength!
This speculation was acknowledged by all the Seventh Rank devil beasts.
"But the Li family has powerful Immortal Realm cultivators, we’re no match for them. Just like last time, that Sword Cultivator sensed an immense threat and killing intent from afar."
A certain Seventh Rank devil beast said worriedly, "If we anger the Li family and they send Immortal Realm cultivators to deal with us, we would have no power to resist. It would be either escape or facing death!"
"What are you afraid of? The Li family has Immortals, but doesn’t mean we don’t!" the leading devil beast said with a smile.
"What?!
The clan secretly arranged for a powerful Immortal too?"
Many of the devil beasts present felt astonished because they had no idea any secret dispatch had been ordered by their clan before their departure.
However, knowing there was a powerful Immortal gave them just a little peace of mind, thinking in case of a true conflict, as long as they kept a safe distance, their lives could be preserved.
...
Several days later, huge Spirit Boats appeared again above Mount Wanxian. A large number of clansmen temporarily left their family for the decided encounter.
"Here they come!"
Li Zhixuan watched the Spirit Boats, a gleam in her eyes. Her Divine Sense swept over without finding a trace of Immortal Realm devil beasts. They either hid deeply, evading even her probes, or they simply didn’t exist.
Thus, Li Zhixuan did not engage immediately but rather waited for the opportune moment.
Besides, this time the Li family brought out almost all Integration clansmen; their presence alone was enough to impose immense pressure and threat on the devil beasts, without needing her as an Individual Immortal to intervene, ensuring victory for the family in this battle.
She only needed to lie in wait; the moment that Individual Immortal Realm devil beast appeared, she would strike without delay.
’Damn! How did this family’s strength increase so much!’
The Loose Immortal of the Devil Race, hidden in the shadows, grew agitated observing the one-sided battle where devil beasts suffered heavy casualties. It considered intervening several times but ultimately lacked the courage.
Because it could clearly sense that if it made a move, Li Zhixuan would not let it go, and it would likely face a life-threatening situation.
In the end, it dared not act, resigning to watch the devil beasts being slaughtered.
...
"Last time, you six beasts collaborated, threatening me with the life of my clansmen. This time, I’m eager to see what more tricks you have up your sleeves!" Jiang Fengwu glanced coldly at a few familiar devil beasts not far away, a hint of a sneer at her lips.
"Hmph! Just you alone dare to speak such bold words to us, truly unaware of your impending death."
Without personal experience of being trapped and attacked by her Formation, one would never fathom the sheer power of these arrays.
Jiang Fengwu sneered, falling silent as more words meant little compared to proving oneself through action!
With the help of her clansmen, she didn’t need to use Void Array techniques to hinder the devil beasts; she could fully focus on arranging an Eighth Rank Great Array.
Within half an incense stick’s time, a brand new, more powerful than ever Eighth Rank Great Array instantly took shape, enveloping all those devil beasts within.
"Let none of you underestimate the terrifying prowess of an Array Master!"
Boom—
Dozens of enormous bolts of lightning served as Jiang Fengwu’s welcoming gift.
Those few devil beasts unfamiliar with formations were instantly shocked, the power far exceeding their anticipation!
By this point, they regretted, had they known, they would have sought to thwart Jiang Fengwu’s array deployment at any cost.
Alas, their epiphany came too late, having dismissed the warnings of Shi Gang and his three previously wounded devil beasts.
For their arrogance and overconfidence, they paid a blood-steeped price—none other than their own lives!
...
With the Li family dispatching several dozen Integration, hundreds of Void Refinement, totaling over ten thousand clansmen, even with support from the Qian Valley Devil Race, the devil beasts could not withstand.
"Truly terrified cowards!"
However, this great battle left Li Zhixuan somewhat frustrated, as the Individual Immortal Realm devil beast had not moved at all, actually watching the entire scene of the devil beasts being slaughtered.
Despite being in such an intense battlefield, she found no opportunity to make a move.
After the purging of the mountain devil beasts, most of the clansmen took the opportunity to eliminate the last trace of their Catastrophic Qi.
However, some clansmen, intoxicated by the major victory, even thought of advancing westward, seeking vengeance on the Qian Valley region for their fallen kin.
"Biting off more than they can chew!"
Li Zhixuan and Jiang Fengwu were calm, shaking their heads as they said, "The family needs only to retain the three-thousand-mile range of the Changli Mountain Range. The further western mountains can be handed over to Loose Cultivators or various minor factions."
Though their strength is lesser, their numbers are abundant. Even if unable to occupy those woods, their relentless assault on devil beasts and extraction of Spiritual Objects will continue to trouble the devil beasts greatly.
Perhaps when the family’s strength grows later on, they could expand westward along the Boundary Mountain Range.
As for now, the Li family cannot do it, only being able to protect their current territory.
