Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1826: Chapter 1382: Return

As Blood Suspension perished, several other Earth Immortals and a large number of Low-level Demon Cultivators died as well.

In an instant, the Demon Cultivators were swiftly pushed to a disadvantage, increasingly unable to resist the fierce offensive of the Li family.

The Demon Cultivators had not been prepared for battle and were taken by surprise by the Li family, who seized the initiative, and there was already a significant gap in strength between them.

After a series of deaths, they were no match for the Li family.

If the Demon Cultivators had previously had the courage to fight the Li family desperately in hopes of carving out a path to survival, now their morale had completely collapsed, and they no longer considered the group, only thinking of saving their own lives.

Therefore, they fled in panic in all directions, completely forgetting about the Spirit Wind Barrier arranged by Xiaoqing, obstructing their escape route.

The outcome of scattering was being picked off one by one, leading to a quicker demise!

“Ahhh!”

“Please, spare me! I have not killed any Li family cultivators.”

“Get out of my way!”

Screams, pleas, roars… all kinds of sounds echoed in this confined space, sounding extremely noisy and chaotic.

The Li family’s attitude towards the Demon Cultivators was simple: kill!

Regardless of whether the other side had killed members of the Li family, there was no possibility of reconciliation between them, so there was no room for mercy.

Thousands of Demon Cultivators were left with no survivors!

Of course, during the battle, despite the protection of the Cloud Boat, the Li family did not escape without injury, though the numbers were relatively small.

“Pile the bodies of the Demon Cultivators into a Jingguan, record it with a Memory Stone, and spread it throughout Shanhai State to intimidate and warn those still-hidden Demon Cultivators!” Xiaoqing said coldly and ruthlessly.

Da Qing stood nearby, wanting to speak but ultimately remained silent.

In just a short while, thousands of Demon Cultivator corpses were stacked into a small hill, surrounded by severed fingers and remains, blood flowing everywhere, appearing sinister and terrifying.

From that moment, clan members began activating numerous Memory Stones to record the scene.

“Light the fire!”

With the command, clusters of Spiritual Fire descended from the sky, igniting the Jingguan in an instant, blazing a towering inferno, with thick black smoke rolling, emanating a nauseating smell of burning flesh.

Not far off, many Loose Cultivators noticed the situation here, but due to the previous fierce battle, despite their curiosity about the fire, they dared not approach for fear of accidentally wandering into the battlefield.

But shortly after, when they saw the images, they suddenly made the connection.

And as the Memory Stones were spread throughout Shanhai State to each Immortal City and its subordinate forces, many Loose Cultivators were shocked, disgusted, and incredulous as they watched the recorded scenes.

They could hardly believe that the Li family dared to take such an action!

Building a Jingguan and burning corpses in the fire were one thing; many forces might have done so secretly, but the most deadly part was that they not only documented it but also spread it throughout Shanhai State!

For the Demonic Tao and Demon Cultivators, this was an enormous insult!

Once the Demonic Tao learned of this, they were bound to retaliate, likely not on a small scale, but by mobilizing a full army to destroy the Li family’s legacy!

“Why did the Li family suddenly go insane, thinking that defeating some Demon Cultivators made them a match for the entire Demonic Tao?”

“They’re mad as hell! It won’t be long before the Demonic Tao army conquers Shanhai State. We’d better leave quickly to save our own lives.”

In the eyes of many Loose Cultivators, the Li family was about to face a huge calamity, and staying here would be extremely dangerous, so it seemed prudent to leave before the Demon Cultivators arrived.

Consequently, Shanhai State soon fell into chaos, with a mass exodus of Loose Cultivators.

The once bustling and crowded Immortal Cities and Marketplaces across the region turned into empty ghost towns, devoid of any signs of life.

Even some subordinate forces, to ensure the continuation of their own legacy and bloodlines, began secretly splitting up and quietly leaving Shanhai State.

However, some Loose Cultivators chose to stay!

…

Mount Wanxian.

Many clan members were as surprised as outsiders to find out that the family had taken such a drastic action!

They were puzzled, not understanding why they would provoke the Demonic Tao this way, especially when this move would bring no benefit to the family and would instead incur the Demonic Tao’s enmity.

With the Li family, including the two Star Lords Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo, having only four Heavenly Immortals, and none of them stationed at the clan, the Demonic Tao would not feel the slightest fear.

Even many Elders were puzzled, filled with anxiety and worry, wondering how the family could possibly cope if the Demonic Tao launched a full-scale assault with their army!

Some even started to blame Xiaoqing, thinking that his moment of anger might lead the clan into great danger.

Knock knock—

Li Liangxiang noticed the anxious and uneasy atmosphere permeating the great hall and gently knocked on the table to draw everyone’s attention.

“I understand everyone is dissatisfied with Spirit Ancestor Qingpeng’s actions, but he was not acting on impulse; it was a well-considered decision!”

When he initially learned about it, he was equally confused, but after asking Xiaoqing for an explanation, he continued, “The Demonic Tao has greatly offended the Immortal Tao, Sea Clan, and Devil Race by polluting Spirit Veins everywhere. Now that the pollution has been eliminated, the three factions will surely not let them off!”
