Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1100: Chapter 1119: Excellent

Speaking of this great battle, the cause of its outbreak truly caught everyone by surprise.

In a conflict, an offspring of a cultivator from Wanzhu State, who possessed a Heavenly Spiritual Root, died at the hands of the Zhang Family!

It’s normal for life and death to be determined on the battlefield, but it wasn’t wrong for them to settle accounts with the Zhang Family after the battle. However, this quickly ignited the flames of war.

So it was not only the Li family who were unprepared, but even the Zhang Family and those other three powers were not ready.

There was also some oddity in this, for instance, that the cultivator would start a huge battle over just one offspring, which in a way, breached the orders of his Sect!

Theoretically, even if he cherished the descendant, he shouldn’t have acted on his own.

But now that the great battle has erupted, not many people noticed this detail. Even Li Zhirui felt it was peculiar after hearing about it, but did not delve deeper.

”Although we’re only assisting from the sidelines, everyone must be fully alert, otherwise it’s very likely you’ll fall on the battlefield!” Li Zhirui warned his fellow clansmen.

Due to the hasty conscription, some clansmen still haven’t properly adjusted their mindset. If they were to enter the battle like this, the outcome would surely be dreadful.

”There’s still some time before we reach the battlefield, tighten up your resolve!”

This time, Li Zhirui was unable to look after them as before. It wasn’t that he couldn’t spare the effort, but because the damage caused by a cultivator capable of Integration is extensive, the battlefield had to be set apart from other cultivators to avoid collateral damage.

Luckily, everyone had decades of experience and with the encouragement from Li Zhirui, they soon adjusted their mental state, becoming markedly less agitated.

In just two hours, the Li family’s Cloud Boat arrived at the edge of the battlefield.

”You’ve finally arrived!”

Zhang Feixia, who had been anxiously waiting for the arrival of Li family cultivators, hastened towards them somewhat uncontrollably upon seeing Li Zhirui and the others.

”Fellow Daoist Zhang, what’s happened?” A flicker of foreboding shone in Li Zhirui’s eyes.

Zhang Feixia said, ”This great battle was so sudden, our family wasn’t prepared and sent too few people, almost letting the enemy breach the defensive array.”

Li Zhirui’s brow instantly furrowed, he did not quite believe this explanation, suspecting that the Zhang Family intentionally sent fewer cultivators, thinking that the Li family would send theirs to fight at this location.

Indeed, Li Zhirui’s suspicion was right on the mark; the Zhang Family indeed had this intention.

But the Zhang Family also felt somewhat helpless, as fighting on three fronts put them under immense pressure, and to not lose any more territory, they had employed many strategies.

However, Li Zhirui didn’t have a solution for this situation, since he wasn’t powerful enough to command the Zhang Family to recall their cultivators.

He could only say, ”We will do our best to hold the line, but our strength is limited. If a situation arises that we can’t handle, I hope Fellow Daoist could strive to send more support.”

”Of course! Thank you for your efforts going forward!” Knowing that his family’s little scheme had been seen through, Zhang Feixia felt quite embarrassed; however, for the sake of his family, he had to make such calculations.

Li Zhirui did not say much, leading his people into the defensive line, and seeing them quickly getting into a combat-ready state, he breathed a sigh of relief, saying, ”Da Qing, Sheng, I leave this place to you.”

Zhang Feixia felt a bit astonished on the side. To be honest, he had underestimated the Li family, just like all the Elders of the Zhang Family did. In their view, the Li family was nothing more than a nouveau riche.

Seeking help from the Li family was a desperate move, but it didn’t mean that the Zhang Family would regard the Li family more highly, and the Zhang Family had already planned how to deal with the Li family in the future.

However, observing the demeanor and reactions of these Void Refinement and Divine Transformation cultivators of the Li family, Zhang Feixia suddenly felt that his family should be a bit cautious about the Li family.

”Fellow Daoist Zhang, if the battle situation is unfavorable, let’s not waste time.”

When the Li family members arrived, the battle was already raging, a brutal conflict in full swing.

Li Zhirui’s words instantly sobered Zhang Feixia, who replied, ”What you said is right, let’s go then.”

Two beams of Spirit Light flew out of the formation; shortly after, they appeared at the edge of the battlefield, right where the Integration cultivators were fiercely battling!

As soon as they arrived, Zhang Feixia saw his family’s cousin being overwhelmed by an assault, struggle to cope, and looking quite embarrassed.

”Fellow Daoist should quickly choose an opponent.”

After speaking, Zhang Feixia hurriedly left to help his cousin alleviate some pressure.

Li Zhirui glanced over the vast battlefield and noticed the predicaments of several Zhang Family Integration cultivators; most were at a disadvantage, though none as embarrassed as that cousin.

”How can the Zhang Family’s Integration cultivators be of such a level?”

Even though both parties had similar levels of cultivation, the Zhang Family just couldn’t gain much advantage.

Li Zhirui found it incredibly incredible, really an eye-opener, the once dominant force of Shanyuan State now appeared so ordinary!

He shook his head slightly; such remarks were not for Li Zhirui to make, as they could easily bring about trouble.

Thus, after he helped a Zhang Family cultivator extricate from the assault, he focused on confronting his own opponent.

”You are not from the Zhang Family, right? Seeing that you have just advanced, you must be Li Zhirui from the Li family. Wouldn’t peacefully cultivating have been better for you? Why must you involve yourself in this turmoil, what for?” The cultivator looked at Li Zhirui rather regretfully.

Although he hadn’t advanced to the middle phase of Integration, but as an old cultivator with an initially formed Dharma, their strengths weren’t matched!
