Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1566: Chapter 1252: Evil Energy

”What do you think is the problem?” Li Zhirui asked solemnly.

Jiang Fengwu slightly shook her head, it was just a faint feeling, ”I can’t quite put it into words, but I feel that the origin and identity of that Black Divine Statue might not be that simple.”

”If I had to say, it’s unlike any Evil God I have encountered before.”

Everything has its yin and yang, its good and evil, and so does the Divine Path.

There are Good Gods like Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo who uphold the order of heaven and earth and are beneficial to the world, and naturally, there are Evil Gods who destroy order and bring disaster to all directions.

And most of these divine beings are Demon Cultivators or originate from the Devil Race that consumes large amounts of flesh and blood.

Jiang Fengwu pondered for a while and suddenly said: ”Although Evil Gods destroy the world, there is still a trace of righteousness in their evil energy, but the Black Divine Statue I encountered showed absolutely no sign of righteousness.”

If Evil Gods can turn their hearts towards the right path and uphold good deeds, they can become Good Gods, which is why a trace of righteousness exists.

Such divine beings even have quite a remarkable future because of their tenacity in character.

”I understand, in a few days, Xiaoqing and the others will attend a banquet in the Heavenly Court. Tell them to inform Sheng and Shuo, and let the Divine Path investigate this matter. You can focus on entering seclusion and breaking through the Realm of Human Immortality.” Li Zhirui made arrangements.

Though the Li family has birthed quite a few divine beings, including Great Gods like the Sun God and the Moon God, it still belongs to the Immortal Tao, as a cultivation family, and should not meddle excessively in the affairs of the Divine Path.

Moreover, from Jiang Fengwu’s words, it was clear that the power of the Black Divine Statue was very strong, at least an Earth Immortal, with a significant chance of being a Heavenly Immortal.

Whether it’s an Earth Immortal or a Heavenly Immortal, they are not entities the Li family can provoke at this moment, so it’s better to leave this matter to the Divine Path for them to resolve.

After all, the current power of the Divine Path is strong, with at least two Heavenly Immortals, and it seems they can directly solve the issue.

Jiang Fengwu did not mention it again after hearing this; if it weren’t for Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo joining the Divine Path, she wouldn’t have been thinking about her spirit sense being stirred.

”There’s another matter: why has the Demonic Tao become so arrogant and reckless?! They’re daring to act everywhere, attacking cultivators, robbing Immortal Cities, such incidents are emerging one after another.” This was something she encountered on the way back to the clan territory.

Li Zhirui then explained how the Demonic Tao were infuriated and lashed out in anger, venting through bullying the weak.

”Ha! I didn’t expect Demon Cultivators to be so petty, and if they continue to be so reckless, they will definitely invite a crackdown from the Immortal Tao.”

After Jiang Fengwu left, he relayed this matter to Xiaoqing and others, instructing them to inform the two siblings when they attend the banquet in the Heavenly Court, letting the Divine Path handle it themselves.

He himself returned to his Cave Mansion, continued his secluded cultivation, and strived to break through to the late-stage Human Immortal soon.

——

Located a dozen miles beneath a barren mountain on the southwest border of Shanhai State.

”What did you say?”

An Earth Immortal Demon Practitioner couldn’t believe what he had just heard, coldly questioning: ”You mean a full fifty to sixty thousand Demon Cultivators, and even induced the main forces of the Li family out, yet both battlefields ended in disastrous defeat, with barely a tenth surviving?!”

Moreover, the ones who escaped back were mostly from the Mortal Realm, a few from the Individual Immortal Realm managed to return, but all those sent as Human Immortals were killed by the cultivators of the Li family!

”Yes...” The Individual Immortal prostrated on the ground, trembling as he answered.

With a loud bang, his entire body was flung away, heavily crashing into a side wall of stone, yet he dared not make a sound.

”Useless! A bunch of useless fools! What’s the use of you!” The Earth Immortal roared in anger, the overwhelming terrifying pressure causing fear and instability among the Demon Cultivators in the cave, afraid they might become the tools for venting his rage.

Fifty to sixty thousand Demon Cultivators, occupying half of the northeastern part of the East Continent, yet almost all of them were wiped out in one go!

In contrast, the Li family suffered little loss, such a huge disparity, how could he accept it?

After some time, his anger slightly subsided, and he started contemplating how to report to the Sect and how to deal with the Li family.

But thinking about these things gave him a headache all over again.

The Sect would definitely hold him accountable, and there might even be punishment. As for the Li family, without the ability to personally intervene, among the remaining Demon Cultivators, none of them were a match for Li Zhirui, rushing headlong would likely end as before.

As expected!

The higher-ups of the Demonic Tao in the West Continent severely rebuked this Earth Immortal Demon Practitioner named Lai Jiang upon learning the situation and instructed him to find a way to resolve the issue with the Li family.

One must know, the Demonic Tao was causing havoc and stirring storms all over the East Continent, doing quite well in many places, dealing with many cultivators, only they failed with the Li family!

It’s like a sheet of white paper suddenly has a drop of ink, looking very abrupt, distasteful, and naturally, they want to find a way to remove it.

In fact, as Jiang Fengwu mentioned, if they continue to be so reckless, the Immortal Tao will definitely take action!

The reason the Demonic Tao has been successful so frequently is, firstly, they picked targets with weaker strength who are no match for the Demon Cultivator army; secondly, the Immortal Tao hasn’t reacted in time, and if they don’t learn to restrain themselves soon, they will be swept away by the Immortal Tao with a thunderous force.

”The Li family is formidable, with the current manpower, it’s likely impossible to break through their Mountain Gate.”

Lai Jiang had already asked some disciples and knew that the Li family’s Mountain Protection Array was extraordinary, with formidable defensive capability, and with over fifty thousand Demon Cultivators, they simply couldn’t break the Formation, so they must request reinforcements.
