Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2047 1492: Defeated (2)

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Amid thunderous roars that shook the heavens and earth, cultivators and devil beasts released their strikes nearly at the same moment. The formerly lush plain had turned into a horrifying bloodbath, a merciless grinder devouring lives endlessly.

Across the battlefield, the inky-black tide of beasts surged forward in madness, slamming repeatedly into the cultivators' barrier. Should that hindering Formation shatter, the devil beasts were certain their overwhelming might and sheer numbers would swiftly eradicate all these cultivators!

From behind the Formation, waves of assaults poured out from the cultivators—Divine Powers, Spells, Sword Qi, and various Spirit Lights weaving together into a vast web of annihilation.

No devil beast ensnared in it could hope to survive!

The fierce clash had just ignited, yet the ground was already strewn with twisted corpses and shattered bones, heaped into grisly hills that chilled even the boldest hearts.

Still, this carnage failed to deter or break the devil beasts. Instead, it ignited their ferocity further. Despite death lurking everywhere, they refused to back down, hurling themselves into the fray with unyielding frenzy.

"Something's off! These devil beasts aren't acting right!" A Li family Earth Immortal scowled intensely, his sharp eyes sweeping over the beast horde.

After all, most creatures dread death. Only a handful ever transcend the fear of mortality—such fearless souls are incredibly rare, impossible to find in hordes like these devil beasts.

Suddenly, the truth dawned on him: these devil beasts had been manipulated. They appeared ordinary but were mere Puppets, stripped of any independent will.

"We must find a solution fast!"

The devil race, as locals with greater numbers, already dominated. Willing to sacrifice endless low-level devil beasts, they could overwhelm the cultivators' Defensive Array.

That Defensive Array was already trembling unstably; it wouldn't hold out much longer at this pace.

He needed to move swiftly!

Through intense scrutiny, he pinpointed several devil beasts orchestrating the horde.

They figured lurking at the back would shield them from notice. Sadly, they'd been detected anyway.

To disrupt the devils' command, the surest path was slaying those spellcasting devil beasts and shattering their Secret Technique outright.

The other route—inferring and crafting a counter to the Secret Technique—demanded precious time for study and development.

Battlefields offered no such luxury.

Hence, eliminating the spellcasting devil beasts was their sole recourse.

Breaking free from the Defensive Array's protection, traversing myriads of beasts unscathed—and packing sufficient strength—few cultivators could manage it.

This mission allowed no group of four.

Just three would make it perilously chancy.

Desperate, they turned to Wan Qingxuan.

"Fellow Daoist, we need your aid on a crucial mission."

"I am Wan Qingxuan."

After a brief self-introduction, he inquired, "What task do you have for me?"

The Li clansman detailed, "Right now, we need someone to exit the Great Array, infiltrate the beast tide's rear, and take out those four devil beasts puppeteering the low-level ones."

"Got it!"

Wan Qingxuan consented instantly, a spark of eagerness gleaming in his gaze.

As a war enthusiast, he'd grown weary of hunkering in the Formation—the early excitement had worn thin.

"Then get ready, Fellow Daoist. We depart in two hours!"

"Fine by me." Wan Qingxuan asked no more, showed no doubt. He simply pivoted to make preparations.

Arrogant he might be, but no idiot; this venture brimmed with lethal danger—a single slip could mean doom. Naturally, he'd gear up thoroughly.

Two hours flew by swiftly.

"Let's go!" At the Li family cultivator's order, four streaks of Spirit Light pierced the Formation, hurtling toward the beast tide's backlines.

The concealed devil beasts—those Human Immortal realm ones commanding the low-level horde—immediately detected the threat. They commanded their minions to block the foes, striving to hold them off.

Simultaneously, they summoned fellow Human Immortal realm devils to rush back and guard them.

Among the quartet, Wan Qingxuan outpaced all. Before his comrades could respond, he'd cleaved through the swarm, closing in on one hidden Human Immortal realm devil beast.

Clang—

In a blur, his sword unsheathed, slicing toward the devil beast. Shockingly, a Defensive Magical Artifact halted Wan Qingxuan's edge.

But his follow-up blow heralded its end—the beast dropped control over the lesser monsters, channeling every ounce into shielding itself.

Even then, survival eluded it!

The other devil beasts never dreamed Wan Qingxuan's prowess ran so deep—felling an equal in mere two slashes.

Terror gripped them instantly. Two bolted without a sound!

The lagging devil beast drew the short straw, drawing Wan Qingxuan's focus. Despite its desperate struggle, death claimed it inescapably.

With the Human Immortal realm devils slain or scattered, their dominion collapsed; the low-level devil beasts regained their senses.

Beholding the corpse mountains and strewn limbs, these lesser devil beasts' instinct screamed to bolt!

Why linger and perish too?

As the devil beasts fled in chaotic rout, the savage, gore-drenched war suddenly ended.

Yet soon, fresh conflict ignited once more.

The cultivators grabbed the moment to counterattack—riding peak spirits, their fighting prowess soared!

The devil race, frantic to hold, mustered even vaster beast armies—from tens of thousands swelling to hundreds of thousands.

What they hadn't foreseen: while frontline chaos reigned, This Realm's humans struck the devils from the flank.

This Realm humans' timing was flawless!

Exploiting the devils' weakened state, they harvested massive gains and crushed their foes with ease.

Caught between twin assaults, the devils' doom deepened.

In this vise, the devil race crumbled, ceding territory relentlessly.

Within mere years, they plummeted from Primordial Beast Realm overlords to hunted abominations!

Thus, the Li family's conquest reached flawless triumph.

Surviving devil beasts posed no further threat.

Moreover, the Primordial Beast Realm would soon fall fully to the Primal Spirit Realm, restoring their full might.
