Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 264 - 270: Fleeing

”Blood Demon Ghost?!”

```

As soon as the monster appeared, Cloud Thunder True Lord called out its name, and his eyebrows and eyes also took on a grave expression.

Because of their relationship as mortal enemies, both parties were extremely familiar with each otherʼs divine powers and secret techniques.

And this Blood Demon Ghost was an extremely bloodthirsty and cruel secret technique from Yin Wind Cave!

First, one must prepare three hundred and sixty-five Yin Spirits full of resentful energy to serve as the foundation for a Resentful Spirit Nourishing Array.

Then another array must be set up to collect a large amount of blood energy—the Blood Sea Genesis Grand Array was what Yin Wind Cave had deployed this time.

With the two arrays combined, the Yin Spirits would become extremely frenzied under the stimulation and catalysis of the blood energy, losing all reason and knowing only to kill.

When only one of the three hundred and sixty-five Yin Spirits remained, the embryo of the Blood Demon Ghost would be considered complete. To ʼhatchʼ it, an enormous amount of blood energy would be required.

And what was in no short supply on the battlefield was blood energy!

The Demon Cultivators had not counterattacked in the past few days precisely because they were busy with this matter; they needed to control the Blood Demon Ghost, lest it kill every living thing it saw.

”How interesting!” The still-hidden Cold Soul True Lord sketched a slight smile on his lips and said meaningfully, ”No wonder Yin Wind Cave dares to contend with Shen Leishan, which is guarded by a Nascent Soul. They had such a trick up their sleeve.”

”If I could take this secret technique back to my sect,” Cold Soul True Lord thought to himself.

A ghost without life, yet possessing combat prowess comparable to that of a Nascent Soul True Lord. As for the extremely bloodthirsty and cruel process of creation, Cold Soul True Lord disregarded it completely.

”What is that thing?!”

”Yin Wind Cave can actually cultivate such a terrifying monster?!” Li Zhirui and the other cultivators started to tremble uncontrollably at the sight of the monster.

Because they felt an aura on it similar to Cloud Thunder True Lordʼs, which meant this monster called the Blood Demon Ghost was as powerful as a Nascent Soul True Lord!

”No wonder Yin Wind Cave has the confidence to wage a great battle against Shen Leishan; they had such an ace up their sleeve,” murmured Li Zhirui.

Li Shiqing felt a mix of fright and relief, saying, ”Thank goodness you called us back. Otherwise, getting caught up in this kind of battlefield, we would have truly been dead without a place to be buried.”

Li Zhirui didnʼt respond to that, but instead said, ”But speaking of which, why havenʼt we seen any cultivators from Profound Ice Sect up until now? Could it be that the Profound Ice Sect regretted their decision afterwards and no longer wish to ally with Shen Leishan?”

As Li Zhirui and the others speculated, Cloud Thunder True Lord had already started fighting the Blood Demon Ghost, creating such a commotion that it could be heard dozens of miles away.

The Blood Demon Ghost, lacking spiritual intelligence, fought mostly with its physical body and divine powers. Cloud Thunder True Lord, with his wealth of combat experience, was able to catch every flaw and thus weaken the Blood Demon Ghostʼs strength.

And as time went on, the Blood Demon Ghostʼs body kept shrinking. Perhaps if this continued, it would completely dissipate.

Cloud Thunder True Person let out a deep sigh of relief. What came next was the most critical moment. As long as he slew the Blood Demon Ghost, Yin Wind Cave would be like flesh on the chopping board, utterly at the mercy of others.

But the next scene disrupted all his plans!

The Blood Demon Ghost suddenly burst forth, leaping out of Cloud Thunder True Lordʼs attack range and then plunging into it.

”This is bad!” Cloud Thunder True Lordʼs face changed dramatically, as if he foresaw what was next. He urgently called out, ”Cold Soul Taoist, if not now, when will you take action?!”

Before his words ended, a beam of bright blue light descended from the sky, eventually freezing the Blood Lake completely.

Unfortunately, it was still a step too late, allowing the Blood Demon Ghost to escape back.

And the Blood Demon Ghost, initially weak in spirit, recovered rapidly with the copious replenishment of blood. In just a few breathsʼ time, its wounds had completely healed.

”Two Nascent Soul True Lords?!”

Cultivators like Li Zhirui, who knew the inside story, also expressed a tinge of surprise when Cold Soul True Lord made his move.

Clearly, they hadnʼt anticipated that Profound Ice Sect would send a Nascent Soul True Lord to help, thinking only some Foundation Establishment cultivators would be dispatched.

With their combined effort, the Blood Demon Ghost, even at its peak, was no match for them.

”Eh?” Cold Soul True Lord found a dim, lightless stone in the body of the Blood Demon Ghost, and with a flicker of thought, chose not to reveal it but quietly hid it away.

Meanwhile, on the side of the Demon Cultivators.

”Sect Leader, we have held out this long, and now the Blood Demon Ghost has been destroyed, can we be allowed to leave?” one of the Golden Core Elders asked directly and without euphemism.

Before the great battle erupted, many Golden Core cultivators wanted to flee, but they had stayed because of the Sect Leaderʼs threats.

But so much time had passed that they felt their obligation was fulfilled, seeing no need to stay and die alongside Yin Wind Cave.

Moreover, everyone knew that Yin Wind Caveʼs luck had run out!

Two Nascent Soul True Lords working together was too much for Yin Wind Cave to withstand.

”Everyone go,” the Sect Leader said in an even tone, ”Friends, till we meet again!”

Having said that, he turned into a rainbow light and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

In fact, he still had some magical treasures, which could have resisted the Nascent Soul True Lords for a while, but what was the point?

Instead of wasting precious items here, it was better to keep them and pass them on when the opportunity arose.

As for why they didnʼt retreat to the sect and rely on the Mountain Protection Array to fend off the invaders? Because a long defense was bound to fail! And once the Formation was broken, they would be like turtles trapped in a jar, with few surviving.

”Damn it!” They hadnʼt expected that the Sect Leader, who had stood firm before, turned out to be the quickest to escape now.

With that, the other Golden Core Demon Cultivators hesitated no longer, each unleashing their unique skills and flying off into the distance.

Cloud Thunder True Lord, seeing this, immediately shouted, ”Everyone, pursue and eliminate the remnants of the Demon Cultivators!”

He himself dealt with four Demon Cultivators at once, personally chasing one, while spells and magical treasures chased the other three.

If so many Golden Core Demon Cultivators escaped, Yin Wind Cave could hardly be considered eradicated, and these cultivators would still pose a significant danger to Shen Leishan, so they naturally needed to deal with them.

”Uncle, weʼve rested long enough, itʼs time for us to go out and about,” Li Zhirui said with a smile.

Now that the great battle was over, he naturally felt elated.

With the Demon Cultivators in defeat and scattering in all directions, as long as they didnʼt impede those Golden Core Demon Cultivators fleeing for their lives, the two of them were essentially safe given their strength.

So Li Shiqing readily agreed, only slightly concerned for family members such as Li Zhixuan.

”Donʼt worry, Iʼll leave Da Qing on the Spirit Boat. With it there, even if danger arises, we can hold out until we return,” Li Zhirui reassured.

Li Zhiruiʼs eagerness stemmed from wanting to perform well in front of Shen Leishan.
