Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 1088: Chapter 1082: Aim Right Here

Before them lay a sea of fire.

The Nirvana Sage Elder’s Heavenly Fire Great Dao incinerated all things.

Even after having the majority of its Spiritual power diminished by Zhao Guang and Wenren Jiuyue, this explosive, murderous charge still contained matchless Dao rhythm.

Above the sea of fire, a phoenix cried out. Wherever it passed, even space itself could not resist the incineration of the fierce flames.

The entire void was illuminated solely by the firelight.

Everyone present, even the Void Refinement realm experts, felt their own Great Daos obstructed by the Nirvana Sage Elder’s instantaneously erupting Great Dao.

They were forced to use all their strength to resist the flames that burned toward their souls, their physical bodies, and their laws.

It seemed as if the world before their eyes was left with nothing but a vibrant red color.

Within this world dominated by flames…

A figure reeking of rot and decay appeared.

The Huan Gui possessed a graceful posture and commanded the same Dao path as Fei Heng.

Her body exuded the aura of someone who had only just broken through to the Dao-Glimpsing realm, yet her mastery over the Corpse-Stitching Daoist technique was far more proficient than Fei Heng, who had controlled the corpse dragon!

Eight identical figures, representing eight types of laws, stood behind the Huan Gui, forming hand seals.

In an instant, they unleashed eight Void Refinement techniques.

Her true body stood in front of the eight clones, her eyebrows furrowed tightly. Her cheeks puffed out as she extended her neck, spewing white mist from left to right.

Just as the Nirvana Sage Elder charged over with killing intent, walls of flesh rose up on the left and right of the Li Clan members.

Ghostly hands, a blurry mess of flesh and blood, reached toward the phoenix, intercepting the Nirvana Sage Elder alongside the techniques of the eight clones.

The Daoist technique of the Dao Integration realm continued to burn.

How could the Huan Gui, a cultivator who had merely just entered the Dao-Glimpsing realm, possibly be a match for the Nirvana Sage Elder?

The ghostly hands were incinerated, and the walls of flesh made sizzling, oil-popping sounds, charring black at a speed visible to the naked eye before finally turning into ashes.

The colorful and dazzling Void Refinement techniques could, at most, only form an obstacle that delayed the Nirvana Sage Elder’s advance.

…

“Ants!”

The appearance of the Huan Gui caused a hint of surprise to flash in the Nirvana Sage Elder’s eyes, but it didn’t even take a blink of an eye for his expression to return to calmness.

A cultivator who had just entered the Dao-Glimpsing realm fundamentally could not stop him.

The only reason he had tangled with the people here for so long was to take away Fei Heng’s corpse and find the opportunity Min Tiange had plotted for over many years.

Now that the madman Zhao Guang was paralyzed, so what if the Li Clan had more Void Refinement cultivators?

Killing them and taking Fei Heng’s corpse was merely a matter of convenience!

He saw the Li Clan Ancestor, whom he had met at the borderlands back then, summon mirror surfaces one after another.

These mirror surfaces contained spatial laws and could absorb Spiritual power.

The Nirvana Sage Elder’s expression was unkind. Decades had passed, and this Li Clan Ancestor had grown increasingly powerful.

In particular, it was unknown what laws this person cultivated, or what secret arts he possessed that rendered him immortal and imperishable; not even he could deduce it.

Now this person was charging at him with killing intent again. Incredibly troublesome.

Every single one of the Azure Cloud Li Clan descendants unleashed massive amounts of Spiritual power.

It was obvious that their previous state of resting and recovering Spiritual power while looking completely unbothered on the battlefield was also a sleight of hand—a trap meant to deceive the Nirvana Sage Elder into coming!

“You’ve prepared thoroughly. A cultivator who has just broken through to the Body Integration realm is your trump card?”

“Naive!”

Closer, ever closer. From within the fire phoenix, the Nirvana Sage Elder looked at Li Wei with pity.

The techniques of the Li Clan descendants struck toward him, but before they could even get close, they were incinerated and annihilated by his Heavenly Fire Great Dao.

He even saw that as the charging Li Clan Ancestor continuously traversed through space, his body was already burning with Heavenly Fire.

Kill the Li Clan Ancestor, kill the Li Clan descendants, take the spatial rings from their bodies—everything would be effortlessly easy!

But suddenly, a hint of doubt flashed through the Nirvana Sage Elder’s heart.

Calmness.

In the eyes of the Li Clan Ancestor, who was being eroded by the Heavenly Fire, he only saw a placid indifference devoid of ripples, and a trace of… mockery.

Ten semi-transparent cubes, with black energy swirling within them, appeared in the hands of the Li Clan Ancestor!

The Nirvana Sage Elder instinctively sensed danger.

At the same time, his expression changed as the Heaven-Imprisoning Lock entangled toward him.

Above him, several more auras appeared in the void!

An ancient and unadorned white jade Dao Gate floated in the air, carved with ancient seal script.

This seal script wrapped around him like ropes, sealing his Heavenly Fire Great Dao that incinerated all things.

Standing atop that gate was a gray-robed figure. Behind him, a woman painted, and an old crone chanted incantations, suppressing him.

In just an instant, the Nirvana Sage Elder felt the spatial power drawing ever closer.

Time seemed to stagnate in the span of a single thought.

The Li Clan Ancestor had already arrived right in front of him.

The ten cubes shattered inch by inch, and the power of annihilation erupted outward!

He only saw the Li Clan Ancestor’s ferocious face, and a hearty burst of laughter resonated through the void.

“Aim right here! Use your strongest techniques to finish off this old bastard!”

White light completely engulfed everything before Li Wei’s eyes. Having his body torn apart by antimatter bombs once again, Li Wei actually felt he was getting used to it.

The surrounding crowd was stunned for a moment, then unleashed their strongest Spiritual power without hesitation.

“Ancestors sacrificing to the heavens, boundless Spiritual power.”

At this moment, as the white light emitted by the antimatter bomb lit up the void, following Li Wei’s words, the members of the Li Clan struck first.

Li Tianqi’s Tier-4 grand defensive array resisted the shockwaves of the Ancestor’s self-destruction.

The clan members unleashed techniques from all directions.

Li Changyao drew her bow and nocked three supreme-grade Dharma Treasure long arrows, leaving only the arrow crafted from the Zhao Clan Ancestor’s rib bone.

Li Yaoqing even used the ‘Mountain-Suppressing Demon-Subduing Ring’, which she had kept in reserve until now.

In front of them, a mirror surface actually appeared.

Similarly, a mirror surface appeared before the eyes of the various experts from all factions.

This mirror surface contained spatial laws and led directly to where the Li Clan Ancestor was.

Even techniques could be sent through it; if used, they could reach the Li Clan Ancestor’s location through the spatial laws, simultaneously capable of destroying the Li Clan Ancestor’s body.

“Boom!”

Spiritual power surged.

White light and various types of Spiritual power appeared exactly where Li Wei was via the spatial laws.

The converged techniques of the experts from all factions were dazzling.

The Nirvana Sage Elder’s Heavenly Fire Great Dao contested against the myriad laws until the fierce flames turned into smoke.

Multicolored hues swayed like auroras, and the shockwaves scattered the Heavenly Fire.

Only a shrill phoenix cry could be heard, lingering in the void for a long time.

A few snaps of the fingers later.

The experts from all factions used techniques to dispel the shockwaves.

In the void, only the lingering resonance of the Heavenly Fire Great Dao remained, along with burning phoenix feathers drifting down from above.

As these feathers gradually fell, they also began to turn into ashes.

The figure of the Nirvana Sage Elder could no longer be seen in the void.

“The Nirvana Sage Elder… fell for the trick.”

Wenren Jiuyue stared blankly at the place where the Spiritual power had just converged.

He saw that the Li family members were still in their original spot, protected by green scales.

Aside from the Huan Gui, in the void above, an expert at the Half-Step Body Integration realm had actually appeared, bringing two Void Refinement cultivators along.

The Li Clan was clearly prepared long in advance.

On Li Changyao’s face—the one least capable of hiding her thoughts—a hint of a cold sneer could still be seen.

The Li Clan members were hiding a Body Integration expert.

The three who suddenly appeared all used bizarre techniques, and coupled with the Li Clan Ancestor’s spatial laws, even if a Dao Integration expert dared to actively charge at them, they would be in for a rude awakening!

“A Body Integration expert, and this Half-Step Body Integration expert is so incredibly strong…”

Perfected Qinghe frowned as he looked at the Huan Gui and the gray-robed young man in the cloudy sky.

The young man was heading toward where the Li family members were, arriving beside Li Xinnian and chatting merrily with him.

“The world hasn’t heard of these two before. They…”

But before Perfected Qinghe could finish speaking.

A cold shout from Zhao Guang interrupted everyone’s thoughts. “Demoness, you still want to run?”

…

At this time.

Nun Dairou wanted to flee but was blocked by Zhao Guang.

At the very least, there were more than twenty Void Refinement cultivators present. One Dao Integration, two Dao-Comprehension, and one Dao-Glimpsing expert.

In this situation, for Nun Dairou, there was truly no road to heaven and no door into the earth.

“Senior Huan Gui.”

Li Tianqi smiled at the Huan Gui. However, the Huan Gui only glanced at him, clearly still brooding over being deceived at the Mountain of Esoteric Stratagems.

This caused the corners of Li Tianqi’s mouth to twitch. Even when he was cultivating in the Thunder Fire Demon Cave, the Huan Gui hadn’t wanted to talk to him…

Instead, the Huan Gui nodded to the other Li family members, and the clan members nodded slightly in return.

“Miss Yaoqing, why does this Daoist friend share the same Dao path as the Crown Prince?”

Perfected Qinghe looked solemnly at the Huan Gui.

From the Li Clan killing the Crown Prince to the Huan Gui possessing the exact same Dao path as the Crown Prince, Perfected Qinghe thought of many things in a short span of time.

Li Yaoqing cracked a wide grin. Before she could even speak, Nun Dairou’s bitter voice rang out, her face already ashen.

“You… you knew all along.”

After the Nirvana Sage Elder vanished in the void, feathers fell from the sky, burning with flames before turning into ashes.

The specks of firelight added a touch of sorrow.

“This person cultivates the same Dao as Fei Heng.

She had already attempted to break through long ago and must have already known that someone had occupied her Dao path.

That is why you killed Fei Heng.

Fei Heng was in my Dusheng Nunnery, yet you didn’t make a move against him. You wanted to draw the Nirvana Sage Elder out…”

“To settle the scores all at once.”

Nun Dairou’s face was ashen.

One wrong step leads to a series of wrong steps.

All of them, the people of Shadowfell Prefecture, had laid down their chess pieces in the Shadowfell Prefecture, waiting to seek their Daos. Yet in the end, they had fallen into the Li Clan’s trap.

The expressions of Zhao Guang and the other cultivators from the Imperial Capital all changed.

However, Li Yunbing shook his head. “Not entirely correct.”

…

In the cloudy sky of Dayu Prefecture, Min Tiange arrived, stepping through the void, and stared at the place where the powerful Spiritual power fluctuations had just occurred.

He saw a streak of red light flash through the void like lightning, heading toward the endless forest where the Wu tribe was located.

The corners of Min Tiange’s thin lips curled up slightly.

“The Azure Cloud Li Clan became the fisherman; quite interesting.”

He extended his right hand and performed a divination calculation.

Buddhist light reflected in the cloudy sky, and surprisingly, it was two nuns!

A delicate-looking nun holding the drooping Dharma Master Hongzhen bowed to Min Tiange.

“Subordinate Hongjie greets the Master.”

Seeing Min Tiange nod slightly, Dharma Master Hongjie looked at the battlefield in the void where numerous experts surrounded Nun Dairou, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.

“Master, it is the Azure Cloud Li Clan! We all fell for the Li Clan’s scheme!”

Learning everything that had happened in the Dusheng Nunnery, Min Tiange felt even clearer in his heart.

He smiled and said, “The Li Clan is interesting too. I didn’t expect the Huan Gui from the Mountain of Esoteric Stratagems to associate with them. I’m afraid they knew about the Crown Prince cooperating with me long ago.”

“How is that possible?” Hongjie narrowed her eyes.

“Look at that person.”

Hongjie looked toward the person Min Tiange pointed at. It was precisely the Huan Gui.

Min Tiange said, “This person and Fei Heng cultivate the same Dao. She inherently cultivated the same Dao as the Corpse God.

Arriving in Shadowfell Prefecture, she must have already sensed that her Dao path lay within Shadowfell Prefecture; everything has traces that can be followed.

The only one who could give Fei Heng the secret arts of the Mountain of Esoteric Stratagems is me.”

“Therefore, from the very beginning, the Li Clan never intended to save Fei Heng. They were waiting.”

“Waiting?” Hongjie frowned.

“Waiting for Fei Heng to expose his flaws, and also waiting for the Nirvana Sage Elder.

The Nirvana Sage Elder waited decades for the opportunity I prepared.

When Fei Heng appeared, the Nirvana Sage Elder would absolutely not let this chance slip by.”

Min Tiange smiled. “Similarly, they were also waiting… for me!”

As he spoke, Min Tiange stared fixedly at Su Chen.

He always felt a familiar aura coming from Su Chen.
