Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 483: 489 Chapter: Holding a Grudge

”Itʼs clear that our strength is far inferior to the Devil Beasts, and breaking through their encirclement to safely escape the Secret Realm is not an easy task,”

Jin Dacheng said earnestly, ”Iʼm sure everyone has a way to contact their fellow Sect members, and I hope everyone can get in touch with them as soon as possible. Iʼm worried that in a little while, there will be even more Devil Beasts, and by then, it wonʼt be so simple to escape.”

”Brother Jin is right! At this critical moment, I hope everyone can put aside past grievances, unite and cooperate, and then all leave safely,” the other two Cultivators from Profound Ice Sect quickly added in support, firmly backing Jin Dachengʼs idea.

The remaining two, though unwilling to be led by the people of the Profound Ice Sect, recognized the current imbalance of power and could only lower their heads for the time being, waiting to speak after all the Cultivators had arrived.

For a moment, all five individuals displayed their Divine Powers to contact their Sect brothers and sisters.

Soon, they gathered quite a number of Golden Core Cultivators—more than a dozen!

With this force, they could easily pass through the encirclement of Devil Beasts at the exit. The few third-rank Devil Beasts did not hinder for long and were soon breached by the Cultivators.

”Weʼve finally escaped!”

This was the first thing all the Cultivators said after leaving the Secret Realm!

”What exactly happened inside the Secret Realm? Why was there such a massive catastrophe?” But before they could even catch their breath, their Nascent Soul True Lords surrounded them, asking with grim expressions.

”We donʼt know why the Devil Race suddenly went mad, slaughtering Cultivators left and right. We managed to escape because we reacted quickly enough, before too many Devil Beasts gathered at the exit,” they replied.

Even though they had just come out from the Secret Realm, they werenʼt very clear about the situation inside; they simply shared their own observations.

Several True Lords became angry, flames of rage burning in their eyes. They exchanged glances and decided to join forces to seek trouble with the Devil Race.

”Itʼs time to go!” Li Zhixuan looked at the valley still filled with Spiritual Objects with a hint of regret in her voice.

It wasnʼt that she didnʼt want to stay, but rather that her Space Artifact was already packed to the brim; there was nothing she could do about it.

After all, within the entire valley, there was only that late-stage third-rank Spirit Void Fox, whose strength was too weak to pose any threat to Li Zhixuan.

Originally, Li Zhixuan thought she would be taking a risk of nine deaths and one life to ʼstealʼ a few Spiritual Medicines from the valley swiftly, then after a great battle, make her escape.

However, the reality turned out to be completely different from what she had imagined!

Li Zhixuan had enough time to collect every type of Spiritual Medicine, all she needed was to be a bit cautious.

But as she was preparing to leave, the Spirit Void Fox suddenly appeared and asked somewhat abruptly, ”What is your name?”

Li Zhixuan furrowed her brow slightly; she knew she had been remembered, and the other party would seek her out in the future to avenge its defeat.

If it were other Cultivators or creatures, Li Zhixuan would definitely try her best to nip this threat in the bud. But the other party was the innately talented Spirit Void Fox!

Even if its combat power was weak, it could hide in space at any time, and the current Li Zhixuan simply couldnʼt deal with it!

”Li Zhixuan!” It wasnʼt that she didnʼt want to conceal it, but rather it couldnʼt be hidden! After leaving the Secret Realm, one small inquiry would reveal Li Zhixuanʼs identity to anyone. After all, a Female Sword Cultivator is a rare sight throughout the entire Profound Origin Realm, not to mention in the nearby State Domains.

”Li Zhixuan? Iʼll remember that!”

The Spirit Void Fox spoke with a chilling voice, ”My name is Hu Linghuan. Remember it well, for before long, this name will claim your life!”

”Tsk!” Li Zhixuan didnʼt say much, simply letting out a cold laugh before commanding her Spirit Sword and leaving the valley with ease.

It wasnʼt that Li Zhixuan was arrogant; it was simply that Hu Linghuanʼs combat strength was too weak to be a threat to her anytime soon!

Unless Hu Linghuan could break through to the fourth level and suppress Li Zhixuan with his cultivation forcefully.

But how easy was it to achieve a breakthrough to the fourth level?

So, Li Zhixuan never took this matter to heart.

”I hope you can still smile the next time we meet!” Hu Linghuanʼs face darkened terribly.

Li Zhixuan raced like the wind and soon arrived near the exit, looking out at the portal surrounded by many Devil Beasts.

”Maybe I can just rush through? Catch them by surprise.” Li Zhixuan sometimes had such wild ideas.

Of course, she knew this was impossible.

”Fellow daoist, we are planning to join forces to break through the encirclement. Would you like to join us?” While observing the Devil Beasts, Li Zhixuan also caught the attention of others.

”Sure!” Li Zhixuan agreed without hesitation.

But since there werenʼt enough people, they could only continue to wait.

After several days, they finally gathered a dozen or so cultivators and took the risk of rushing into the swarm of Devil Beasts.

Everything was fine at first, but suddenly a cultivator was trapped by a few Devil Beasts!

”Fellow daoist, save me! I am willing to give you all my wealth accumulated over hundreds of years, please, I beg you to save me!”

Li Zhixuan, who was closest to him, continued flying forward as if she hadnʼt heard a thing.

As it was just a temporarily assembled team and they had known each other for only a few days, they were not familiar with one another. In Li Zhixuanʼs eyes, not kicking someone when they were down was already quite nice of her, so how could she take the risk to save him?

”You have a cruel heart! Not even willing to lend a hand! I curse you...”

Li Zhixuan always ignored such barking voices and continued to sprint forward undeterred.

A moment later, she disappeared into the light curtain.

After a dizzy spell, Li Zhixuan successfully left the Secret Realm.

”Zhixuan?!” Li Zhirui noticed her immediately and took action to bring Li Zhixuan back to the Spirit Boat.

Before others had the chance to ask, Li Zhixuan urgently urged, ”Jiu, hurry, letʼs leave this place!”

”Okay!” Li Zhirui didnʼt waste any time and personally steered the Spirit Boat, trying to leave Great Void Province as quickly as possible.

In fact, when he was with Shen Leishan and the Profound Ice Sect causing trouble for the Devil Race, he had planned to leave. Especially after both Sects came to find him later, wanting to persuade the Li family to join them in acting against the Devil Race.

It was only because Li Zhixuan hadnʼt come out yet that he waited until now.

”Why has the Li family suddenly left?!” Everyone noticed the movements of the Li family and looked up.

Cloud Thunder True Lord frowned, pondering something. He always felt that the Li family must know something, but previous probes had yielded no results.

But today, their sudden departure made him believe his conjecture was correct.

Now that they were gone, though, there was no way to ask them.

After all, Shen Leishan had lost so many Golden Core cultivators; the Devil Race had to pay for something. Otherwise, the blow to the Sectʼs morale would be too great!
