Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2137 1538: Suspicion (Part 2)

”Are you perhaps too confident? Why do you believe that the recent attack has already killed him?” He looked at them with an expression as if they were fools, a slight mocking smile on his face further ridiculing them.

”If you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! Since youʼre courting death yourself, weʼll fulfill your wish!”

With that, they were about to act, preparing to unleash their divine power.

But faster than them was Fu Chengguangʼs attack!

With just a seemingly simple thunderbolt, he directly blasted those cultivators away; not a single one could withstand it.

With such strength, they still dare to boast so arrogantly.

As for the only Earth Immortal, Fang Weidong, it seemed he noticed something peculiar from the earlier move. His face was somewhat grim; these two may still be Human Immortal cultivators, but they possess Earth Immortal strength!

Because his strength far exceeded the others, thatʼs why the earlier attack didnʼt cause him any harm.

Then what about this one?

Fang Weidong shifted his gaze to Li Zhirui, and immediately this question arose in his heart.

He already had an answer, though, because the way these two interacted was more like companions or fellow Daoists, not like a master and servant.

And if their strengths werenʼt at the same level, normally they wouldnʼt interact in such a manner.

Thinking of this, Fang Weidong couldnʼt help but take a breath of cold air. Situations where oneʼs strength surpasses a cultivation realm by such a large margin are extremely rare.

Yet today, he encountered two such individuals!

What initially seemed to be a surefire win now faced enormous changes, and with one careless move, he might even end up trapped here.

Fang Weidong felt a twinge of regret, but who could have predicted such an exceptionally rare situation? They could only say their luck was bad.

If it werenʼt for the fact that escaping alone wouldnʼt look good, disappointing the other disciples and the sect, he would have already left without considering how to capture these two.

Moreover, if this really happened and someone with ulterior motives exploited it, it would bring huge troubles to his sect.

But continuing to fight these two would not only be pointless, but might actually endanger himself.

So the best plan was to leave with most of the people!

Only this way could he save both his own and the sectʼs face, while also preserving his own life.

Having made this decision, Fang Weidong silently prepared a way to escape, ready to unleash the mana stored within him, and his divine power began to operate, waiting for the right moment to take most of the disciples and leave.

Unfortunately, his every move fell into Li Zhiruiʼs eyes.

With a fleeting thought, he appeared beside him, smiling, ”Sir, youʼd better stay put and not try any tricks, otherwise donʼt blame me for not holding back.”

His sudden appearance gave Fang Weidong a startle, his expression changed drastically, and even his breath paused for a moment. When he came to his senses, his heart was already filled with despair.

Because he realized he still underestimated the strength of these two!

Their strength far exceeded that of regular Earth Immortals. He didnʼt even know how the other approached him. Had the other not spoken first, he wouldnʼt have noticed someone was by his side!

Yet Fang Weidong couldnʼt figure out how these two Human Immortal Perfect Cultivators could possibly hold their own against a newly ascended Earth Immortal, which was rare, but not unheard of for such talents to exist.

But under such circumstances, for their power to advance further was simply baffling!

And logically, such individuals would be renowned, known across the world; however, before this, there wasnʼt the slightest whisper about these two in the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm, as if they just appeared out of nowhere.

So who exactly are these two?!

Standing by, Li Zhirui saw Fang Weidongʼs face continuously changing, from shock to fear, and then to contemplation, his brow furrowed.

He understood the man began to doubt their identities.

With no choice, he struck him unconscious to interrupt his thoughts, preventing him from delving deeper and possibly guessing their identities correctly.

”Fellow Daoist, letʼs stop playing with them and quickly resolve this matter.”

Although Fu Chengguang didnʼt understand why Li Zhirui suddenly urged him, he knew the other must have a valid reason, and didnʼt question it, instead he only increased the power of the divine power he was unleashing, to expedite the end of the battle.

Previously, he had a bit of a playful attitude, so the cultivators didnʼt feel too much pressure and still had the strength to counterattack.

But as Fu Chengguang became serious, the cultivators suddenly felt like a mountain was pressing down on them, making it hard to breathe, and they could even clearly see the shadow of death.

In less than half an hour, the battle was over.

Without exception, all ten cultivationists were sealed by Fu Chengguang, with their dantian and divine sense locked by restrictions. Then he reached out and summoned all their storage magical treasures.

”Aaaah!”

Without any other actions, the imprint of their divine sense left on them was erased, causing a pain in their spiritual soul so intense that they let out chilling screams.

Li Zhirui also had already taken the Earth Immortalʼs storage magical treasure into his possession, and even in his unconscious state, he couldnʼt help but let out a muffled groan of pain.

”Letʼs go.”

Before the words were finished, the two of them vanished completely.

Soon after their departure, the restrictions within the cultivators lost their effect. Each of their expressions was extremely complex, a mixture of fear, anger, and a bit of relief.

”Master Fang/Uncle Fang!”

Then they noticed Fang Weidong not far away and hurried to his side, seeking ways to wake him up.

The Secret Realm was perilous, and if something happened to him, their situation would be even more dangerous!

”Ugh!”

Fang Weidong shook his head, dispelling the chaos and pain in his mind, and after adjusting a bit, he asked, ”Are you all alright?”

”Weʼre alright, just that our storage magical treasures were taken.” The tone carried an unsuppressable despair and sorrow.

They hadnʼt just lost the spiritual objects they collected this time but also the wealth they had accumulated over many years.

After this calamity, they could practically be considered penniless!

”As long as youʼre alright, thatʼs good, thatʼs good.”

While he was also heartbroken over his losses, knowing that among his storage magical treasures were several Heavenly Immortal Spiritual Objects, now all fallen into othersʼ hands.

The silver lining in this cloud was that they preserved their lives.

”Uncle, why is their strength so formidable yet they remain only Human Immortals?” A disciple finally asked.

Actually, he wanted to ask why even Master Uncle wasnʼt their match, but to save face, it wasnʼt proper to ask it directly.

”Iʼm just as surprised. Logically, such a situation shouldnʼt exist.”

No matter how heavenly their talents, they shouldnʼt easily transcend a major realm and reverse-slaughter Earth Immortals with such ease.

There must be something wrong here!

”Perhaps these two were originally Earth Immortals but used some secret technique to conceal their cultivation level?”

Even he thought this guess was improbable, for when the two were in action, the aura they emitted was indeed of Human Immortals!

But as far as he knew, there existed no secret technique that could conceal oneʼs aura, even after exerting power, and maintain it.

But apart from this theory, Fang Weidong couldnʼt come up with any other reasons.

”Then what should we do next, Uncle?”

The crowd, unable to get an answer, stopped dwelling on it and shifted to another important question.

”Sigh!”

Upon hearing this question, Fang Weidong couldnʼt help but sigh, saying, ”Not much time remains before the Secret Realm closes. See if we can still snatch some spiritual objects from other cultivators to make up for this loss.”
