Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1694: Chapter 1316: Homeward Bound

”Hundred Lotus Sect, Three Wind Sect, Wind and Fire Sect...”

Li Zhirui repeated the names of these three Earth Immortal forces. After a moment of contemplation, he asked: ”Which among them is the strongest?”

Eliminating them all is not impossible, but the Li family will undoubtedly have to pay a price. But letting them off the hook just like that would make the Li family lose its prestige.

The best approach is to choose one and quickly annihilate it with the force of a swift and fierce attack, thus intimidating the others.

”The Three Wind Sect has three Earth Immortals, but the most arrogant is the Wind and Fire Sect, which only has two newly promoted Earth Immortals,” Li Xiuyuan added in the end.

”In that case, let’s choose this one,” Li Zhirui, who originally planned to eliminate the strongest, unexpectedly found a more suitable target.

”How many family members should we gather?”

”Just Xiaoqing, Cang, and a few Array Masters will suffice. No need for a full mobilization.”

After pausing for a moment, Li Zhirui continued, ”If any family members want to take this opportunity to train, let them volunteer to join.”

Two newly promoted Earth Immortals are simply not worthy of the family’s serious attention. The reason for bringing Array Masters is to set up formations to prevent any cultivators from escaping.

After all, if the weeds are not thoroughly eliminated, they will grow again with the spring wind. Since there is enmity, they should completely eradicate it, giving no chance for a comeback!

Moreover, this relatively safe battle could help family members who have just broken through to consolidate their realm and adapt their combat strength, making good use of resources.

”Yes!” Li Xiuyuan nodded in agreement. When he looked up again, Li Zhirui had disappeared.

As the news spread throughout Mount Wanxian, many family members were very active and eager to sign up, all wanting to participate.

After all, it’s a battle destined for victory without surprises. Participating not only helps hone oneself but also offers chances to obtain some spiritual objects, why not?

Due to the overwhelming number of family members signing up, Li Xiuyuan had to issue a new rule: the final selection would be decided by drawing lots.

From nearly ten thousand family members, three thousand were selected to attack the Wind and Fire Sect alongside Li Zhirui, Xiaoqing, and Cang.

Time flew by, and soon the day of departure arrived.

More than three thousand people boarded two Cloud Boats and headed straight for the mountain gate of the Wind and Fire Sect.

In fact, not long after the Li family took down those colluding with external forces, these three sects had received the news and were secretly vigilant, fearing that the Li family would take action against them.

But days passed without any action from the Li family, causing them to lower their guard.

So when the Li family’s Cloud Boats approached the mountain gate of the Wind and Fire Sect, they only then realized danger was imminent.

A group of cultivators hastily prepared for battle, realizing that the Li family had come with great momentum, clearly looking for trouble!

”I wonder what brings the three of you and so many juniors?” Taoist Lie Feng of the Wind and Fire Sect asked with a smile.

He certainly knew what the Li family intended and understood that this battle was unavoidable. He just wanted to buy more time for the sect to prepare adequately.

”Cut the crap! Let’s fight!” Cang, however, was not one for words and directly charged forward, clashing with Lie Feng.

One was a fusion of wind and fire, each move laced with the scorching and burn of flames, as well as the sharpness and swiftness of Gang Wind.

The other wielded wind in its extremes, yet full of variations. Mighty spirit winds like the Nine Heavens Gang Wind and Soul-Devouring Yin Wind were summoned in succession.

Both were newly promoted Earth Immortals, evenly matched in strength, making the battle fierce and hard to decide.

Meanwhile, during the fight, Li Zhirui and Cang led the family members in launching a fierce attack on the Mountain Protection Array.

With three thousand family members, combined with the two Earth Immortals, Li Zhirui and Cang, the formation soon began to waver. The spirit light gradually dimmed, and small cracks slowly appeared.

”Why hasn’t that Earth Immortal, Xuan Feng, shown up yet?” Cang frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied. Xiaoqing was fiercely engaged, yet he had not yet made a move!

Seeing the array about to break, the other Earth Immortal had yet to show. Could he not be at the Wind and Fire Sect?

At this thought, Cang couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. In hindsight, he shouldn’t have let Lie Feng off for the Li family and should have acted personally.

”Damn! Who are you to dare attack the Wind and Fire Sect?” Just as the formation was about to break, an angry roar came from afar.

Immediately after, a swift wind blade approached, attempting to halt the members of the Li family from attacking.

”Humph!”

Having awaited this moment, Cang sneered, ”Finally, you show up. Any more delay and the formation would have been broken already.”

”Die!” Hearing this, Xuan Feng became even more enraged, intensifying his assault.

A multitude of swords, formed of hurricanes, densely filled the air, swooping down all at once, determined to severely injure Cang!

Roar—

With a mighty roar, Cang transformed into a True Dragon, forming elemental water in front of him, halting the swords’ advance.

Xiaoqing and Cang already had their opponents, but Li Zhirui had none. Nonetheless, he did not need combat to consolidate his realm, as his foundation was solid!

Still, he led the family members in attacking the Mountain Protection Array, hastening its fall.

With him, an Earth Immortal, present, the formation ultimately could not withstand for long and was broken.

Crack—

The sound of shattering glass echoed, as the formation’s spirit light swiftly dimmed, eventually transforming into scattered sparks fading into the world!
