Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1431: Chapter 1184: Entering (Part 2)

Time moved slowly, and only a few days had passed, but the sea area where the Secret Realm was located became increasingly populated with creatures, and the atmosphere was so tense it felt solidified, making it hard to breathe.

”Are you blind?! How could you bump into me like this?” A burly man shouted in a loud, rough voice, the sound waves like rolling thunder, clearly heard even by Li Zhirui and others on the periphery.

Clang!

But the first to make a move wasn’t the burly man; it was a plain-looking Demon Cultivator who intended to kill with his first strike.

After the Demon Cultivator made a move, the scene instantly descended into chaos. Various Divine Powers flew through the air, and countless creatures of inferior strength perished in the melee.

In no time, the sea below was stained crimson. Some shattered bodies and bones floated on the surface, resembling a hell on earth.

Yet even now, the battle showed no signs of stopping; instead, it seemed to be escalating.

And in just these few days of battle, countless creatures had already fallen, illustrating just how dangerous this place was.

However, these matters were unrelated to the members of the Li family waiting on the very periphery. Although a few creatures tried to trouble them, they resolved it quite easily.

”I wonder how long they will fight.”

Li Zhirui spoke softly: ”Until the portal to the Secret Realm opens, I suppose.”

As he spoke, his eyes never left the battlefield; he was observing the strength of the crowd, for once inside the Secret Realm, everyone besides his family would become enemies!

Any understanding gained now might prove useful at some point.

Especially for clan members like Li Xianxun, who were in the Mortal Realm; their cultivation wasn’t strong enough, and if they had no knowledge of the methods of the creatures in the Immortal Realm, they wouldn’t have the slightest chance of survival.

The battle raged on, but more and more creatures began fleeing to the outskirts, unwilling to linger in the central area because some were already injured and feared they would fall if they continued fighting.

To have a Cultivator fall without even entering the Secret Realm would be an enormous loss for many forces.

But their situation hadn’t become any safer!

Because of their weakened state, they were marked by certain forces on the periphery.

The vast sea had no place of peace.

The members of the Li family did not participate; they only wished to stay in perfect condition so they could take action after entering the Secret Realm.

And with Li Zhirui, a Late-stage Independent Immortal, present, other forces naturally wouldn’t come looking for trouble with the Li family.

Buzz——

Several more days passed, and finally, there was movement in the Secret Realm!

Accompanied by a low, resonant humming, the Spirit Light of the Secret Realm shone brilliantly, then slowly formed into a portal.

In that instant, the creatures that had been confronting each other abruptly ceased, and the nearby creatures, without delay, sped towards the portal at the fastest possible speed.

Nearly half a month of slaughter had led to the death of at least ten thousand creatures, yet even so, there were still two to three thousand living creatures remaining.

”Let’s go.”

Li Zhirui glanced around; since he wasn’t fighting over it, the number of Cultivators left outside was already quite low, allowing their group to enter the Secret Realm unimpeded.

As his entire body was engulfed by the portal’s Spirit Light, the space teleportation activated. In an instant, the Space Power wrapped around Li Zhirui, and after a sensation of the sky and earth spinning, he reopened his eyes, having already arrived within the Secret Realm.

The rich Spiritual Energy and the enticing aroma of herbs in the air, especially the latter, stirred his heart.

Such a sight, Li Zhirui had only seen inside a space, where it required many Spiritual Objects to be planted in one place to create such a phenomenon.

This indicated that the Secret Realm was incredibly rich in Spiritual Objects, surely including rare and even extinct ones in the outside world.

But for now, finding the whereabouts of Jiang Fengwu and the other family members was the top priority!

...

Meanwhile, after Li Xianxun overcame the initial dizziness, he promptly figured out his location, within a vibrant and thriving forest.

”I wonder where Ancestor Rui and the others are.”

Li Xianxun murmured to himself, then said: ”I’ll seek opportunities to break through while also regrouping with Ancestor Rui and the others.”

This was his choice; he didn’t want to always act with the main group, as it wouldn’t significantly help Li Xianxun achieve a breakthrough. However, he couldn’t abandon the family entirely, because in the Secret Realm, there were numerous creatures stronger than him!

If he managed to break through his bottleneck, only to encounter an unbeatable group of creatures upon leaving the Secret Realm, what would he do then?

He needed to balance this delicately!

The best scenario would be for him to successfully break through before regrouping with his family members. If not, he would have to continue venturing out on his own.

As for Da Qing, Jiang Fengwu, and the other family members, they appeared in various corners of the Secret Realm. Those nearby quickly gathered together, while those far apart had to face their situations alone first and find other methods later.

As Li Xianxun traversed the Secret Realm, the faint wind around him brought him considerable information, allowing him to preemptively avoid some dangers.

After all, his aim was to break through, not to seek death, so there was no need to provoke those powerful or overly numerous creatures.

”Does this Secret Realm not have Devil Beasts?”

Many creatures had noticed this during the initial projection of the Secret Realm,

but precisely because of this, such abundant Spiritual Objects and undisturbed legacies had been ensured.

One day, Li Xianxun discovered an eighth-order Spiritual Object that he had no recollection of, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. However, before he could pick it, he was spotted by an Eighth-Order Demon Beast.

Boom!

A pitch-black fireball suddenly hurled towards Li Xianxun, who narrowly dodged it.

But where the fireball landed, it created a large crater; if it had hit him, the consequences would have been dire!

”Seeking death!”

Li Xianxun shouted angrily, and the surrounding wind suddenly sharpened, a continuous barrage attacking the Devil Beast.

”Flashy tricks.”

The Devil Beast snorted coldly, using a Defense Divine Ability to ensure its safety.

Yet when an attack landed on its body, its expression changed, filled with disbelief.

Spurt!

The Devil Beast spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, which was caused by the explosion of the wind inside its body. This enraged it completely. With a furious roar, it transformed into a massive black python over a hundred feet long, its enormous size astonishingly agile, moving so fast that Li Xianxun couldn’t react in time.

With a bang, he was sent flying.

Fortunately, the common wind surrounding Li Xianxun helped mitigate much of the impact; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to withstand.

But before he could react further, the python appeared before him, entangling its enormous body around Li Xianxun, tightening its coils in a bid to torture him to death with excruciating pain!

”Ahhhh!”

Li Xianxun’s body hadn’t undergone specialized training, so how could he endure such immense force? A series of anguished screams burst from his mouth, but

the python looked on mockingly at the struggling Li Xianxun, grinning as it spoke: ”Why not surrender early and spare yourself this continuous agony and pain.”
