Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 539 - 545: Warehouse

Shen Leishan.

In the hall where Life Tokens were kept, in an instant, hundreds upon thousands of Life Tokens shattered simultaneously.

Such a massive disturbance shocked the cultivator guarding this place into disbelief for a long time.

”How is this possible?!” When he spoke, his voice was also full of disbelief.

Yun Lei, Qing Lei, Sect Leader, a host of Elders, hundreds of Foundation Establishment disciples... So many cultivators had fallen at the same time!

”Could it be that the Li family has asked a Divine Transformation ancestor to take action?” Otherwise, he really couldnʼt think of a second possibility.

A moment later, when he had calmed down slightly and his rationality returned, he planned to step away to inform the other dozen or so Elders who were staying behind at Shen Leishan.

But just as he was about to push open the thick hall doors, he suddenly stopped.

”This battle, Shen Leishan has lost. As the victors, the Li family will probably come to Shen Leishan before long...”

Staying put was nothing but a dead end—it would be better to take advantage of this excellent opportunity, take some valuables and flee Shen Leishan.

After all, as a Golden Core cultivator, he still had some assurance in his strength. He could easily find an Immortal City and live out the rest of his hundred or so years of life.

Thinking this, when he moved to open the door again, his direction was no longer the sectʼs main hall, but his own dwelling and the storeroom.

”Mrs. Yue, after so many years in seclusion, have you caught a chance for a breakthrough to Nascent Soul?” Li Chengshuo asked with curiosity.

Li Zhiyue smiled faintly and shook her head, saying, ”No, it always feels like thereʼs a layer of mist separating me. It seems within easy reach, but in reality, I canʼt cross it no matter what.”

”Is it very difficult?” Li Chengshuo, who was also left outside, asked. But one was Nascent Soul, the other Golden Core.

Although their realms differed, their feelings were similar, both filled with helplessness.

”Right, Shuo, do you know what has happened to the family?”

Li Zhixuan, who originally did not intend to speak, came over immediately after hearing this and said, ”Go to the cabin, and Iʼll tell you.”

Li Zhiyue followed without a word.

The two walked one after the other into an empty room, and then they heard Li Zhixuan say, ”Shen Leishan suddenly attacked. Jiu managed to block Qing Lei for a day, but the second Nascent Soul arrived quickly...”

”And Jiu, the reason he was the last victor, was because Uncle, Elder Lian, and others used their own lives as sacrifices, casting that witchcraft.”

After hearing this, Li Zhiyue did not know what to say for a while.

”Just do what Jiu instructed, donʼt think too much.” Dead people cannot be brought back to life, and besides, the current situation of the Li family is not good. Thereʼs not much time to indulge in grief.

The Spirit Boat sped along, with the clan members on board seizing every moment to recover their Mana, for the next, a battle might break out.

However, when Li Zhixuan and her group arrived at Shen Leishan, they found that the reality was somewhat different from what they had imagined.

They had thought that some of the cultivators of Shen Leishan would stay and hold out to the last.

But the result was not so.

Li Zhixuan and the others might have considered that to wipe out so many cultivators in an instant, at least a Divine Transformation ancestor would have the strength to do so.

Many Elders, thinking they had guessed the truth,

Li Zhixuan looked at the bare Spirit Mountain in front of her, which seemed as though it had been dug three feet into the ground, and saw only some lower-grade Spiritual Objects upon looking around.

”Such a pity,” sighed Li Zhiyue with resignation.

No matter how quickly or slowly they had hastened their journey, they came for wealth, and now this was the outcome.

”Search carefully to see if there is a hidden storeroom.” Perhaps thereʼs a silver lining now - they donʼt have to fight.

And the reason Li Zhixuan said this was that many powers, like the Li family, had a second storeroom.

Moreover, this hidden treasury, anything stored within, without exception, was a treasured gem!

The Elders of Shen Leishan who had remained in the mountain, of course, knew of such a treasure-filled vault, but had no idea when Li Zhixuan and the others might arrive.

In the end, given the choice between wealth and life, everyone chose life.

After all, these Elders held no real authority and did not know how to activate the vaultʼs Formation.

Following an extensive search by all, it wasnʼt long before they located the hidden vault.

Regrettably, the Defensive Array was so strong that they had no way to forcibly break through; they could only wait for Li Zhiruiʼs arrival.

”Letʼs search the mountain once more, to see if there are any treasures we missed.”

Everyone was still enthusiastic about treasure hunting, energetically searching throughout the vast and towering Shen Leishan.

And sure enough, they actually stumbled upon a few treasures.

Although few in number, they nonetheless reignited the passion in the hearts of the other tribe members.

It wasnʼt until half a day later that Li Zhirui arrived at Shen Leishan.

As soon as he touched down, he sensed the situation; he knew there hadnʼt been any conflict, and though there was no danger, their loot was also limited.

”Is it this vault?”

Once he received confirmation, Li Zhirui began to attack the Formation, trying to break through with brute force.

Boom, boom, boom—

The sound of explosions was relentless, continuing for a long time, evidence of the Formationʼs astounding defensive power.

”Go inside.”

With the relentless effort of everyone, they finally managed to open the great doors of the vault.

Wow!

Seeing the dazzling array of treasures shining brilliantly around them, Li Zhixuan and the others were greatly shocked, followed by a burst of ecstasy.

With the precious Spiritual Objects from this vault, the Li family could quickly recover.

Even the well-informed Li Zhirui couldnʼt help but swallow hard at the sight of the treasures before him.

Because the Spiritual Objects were so precious, they couldnʼt possibly be distributed to every clan member; they could only be rewarded with Contribution Value.

In the end, just collecting these treasures took several hours and two storage rings.

——

A few days later.

”What did you say? The Li family emerged victorious in the great battle with Shen Leishan and looted everything from Shen Leishan?!”

Upon hearing this news, Water Clear and Yaihai, two Nascent Soul True Lords, their first reaction was that it was impossible!

Even if Li Zhirui was exceptionally brilliant, potential is potential, strength is strength; it wasnʼt possible to immediately turn potential into strength.

If it were said that Shen Leishan gained the ultimate victory, that might be somewhat plausible.

The Cultivator who had returned to report the news also found the message too incredible to believe. Merely speaking of it would not convince anyone, so they used a Memory Stone to record the current state of Shen Leishan.

Once a green mountain teeming with life, Shen Leishan now seemed altogether void of life.

Both being experienced and knowledgeable, they could naturally see what had happened.

The Spirit Vein of this mountain had been forcibly extracted!
