Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2301 - 1619: Anxiety

"And the family previously hid part of its strength, intending to give other forces a great surprise! But now it seems that it’s impossible to continue hiding."

When it comes to hiding strength, the Li family follows an old tradition. From the time of Li Zhirui, there was a conscious effort to conceal their power, which somehow got passed down through generations.

Moreover, the secrecy is extremely high; besides the Clan Leader, only those Heavenly Immortal Ancestors are aware.

As for other family members, even Elders only vaguely know a little, but they aren’t fully aware of the whole picture.

Upon hearing the Clan Leader say this, those Elders also remembered the matter, and seeing his full confidence, their anxious hearts slowly calmed down.

"Is it really fine?" Some still asked with slight unease.

"Rest assured,"

The Clan Leader remained quite confident and said, "Moreover, you all aren’t very aware of the power of the Mountain Protection Array."

The crowd no longer pursued the question, after all, the Clan Leader wouldn’t joke about the family’s safety and development.

Besides, they suddenly realized that although the situation was quite critical, no Heavenly Immortal Ancestor had appeared.

Doesn’t this precisely demonstrate their confidence in the family?

"To prevent them from retreating, we instead need to find ways to ensure they attack the family!"

The Clan Leader’s eyes gleamed, saying, "Once they do, we’ll have leverage against them, providing ready reasons for future reckoning!"

The Elders looked at each other, taken aback by their Clan Leader’s craziness and arrogance, intending to attract their attack on the family.

Even with the protection of the Mountain Protection Array, it doesn’t mean there won’t be casualties.

Additionally, if something goes wrong, the family might suffer massive losses!

"Clan Leader, should this matter be carefully considered before deciding?" The Elder preferred a more cautious approach.

"Rest assured, this has already received the approval of all the Ancestors."

Upon hearing this, those Elders had nothing more to say.

Due to this decision, they didn’t kill all those Loose Cultivators but intentionally let a few go.

Those Loose Cultivators believed they were cautious and lucky, unaware it was actually the Li family’s doing.

Otherwise, given their power, dreaming of leaving the Ten Thousand Immortals Mountain Range, where the Li family had operated for countless years, would be foolish!

And letting those Loose Cultivators go was to utilize their words to tell the other Cultivators that the Li family was now as skittish as a startled bird, with strength not so formidable.

This calculation, though crude, precisely exploited human nature!

That group of Cultivators predictably fell into the trap.

However, their reaction wasn’t as the Li Clan Leader envisioned, thinking Li family was tough on the outside but weak within, and ready to attack in haste.

In contrast, they considered more comprehensively, intending to deal a heavy blow to the Li family.

Thus, they ultimately summoned many disciples from their respective sects and families.

Days later!

Sect Cave Abyss, Baiyun Sect, and other forces gathered a total of one hundred thousand Cultivators, including thirteen Heavenly Immortals and over a hundred Earth Immortals. Riding aboard Spirit Boats, they surrounded Mount Wanxian.

Initially confident, the Li Clan Leader’s expression stiffened upon seeing the enemy’s numbers and strength.

The current situation had exceeded his expectations!

Although not overly worried about family annihilation, there could be significant casualties among the clan members.

Realizing the current situation, the Clan Leader immediately regained his composure, aiming to instill confidence in the clan members and not to affect their morale.

"Strike!"

"Kill!"

With the Clan Leader’s command, the sounds of killing surged, and all clan members unleashed prepared attacks, a vast and splendid spell torrent poured out fiercely onto those Cultivators.

Though mentally prepared, they still underestimated the Li family’s strength.

Even with full resistance, they couldn’t fully succeed, only weakening half of the spell torrent’s power, yet the remaining force still inflicted considerable casualties on them.

"All members of the Li family! They all deserve to die!"

The Seven Springs Mountain Deng family’s Heavenly Immortal, with the greatest loss, was ignited with fury, eyes blood-red, seemingly capable of seeping blood.

"Your opponent is me!"

Li Yunran promptly stood up, specifically countering this Heavenly Immortal to reduce his damage to the Mountain Protection Array.

"Die!"

Rumble——

Two Heavenly Immortals erupted into fierce combat. Their exchange seemed to create space fissures.

Both seemed to heed warnings, thus not daring to continue battling in the Primal Spirit Realm and instead moved to the starry sky.

Subsequently, one after another, eight Heavenly Immortals appeared in the Li family!

"The Li family actually hid several Heavenly Immortals! Luckily we summoned more Heavenly Immortals from the Mountain Gate, otherwise this attack might have been a false start." A Heavenly Immortal Cultivator felt a fortunate thought flash in his mind, exhaling in relief.

But simultaneously, they firmly resolved to suppress and weaken the Li family!

Unbeknownst to them, the Li family already possessed eight Heavenly Immortal Cultivators. If counting those three Divine, that amounts to eleven!

This number is challenging even for seasoned Heavenly Immortal forces, but a younger generation succeeded.

And after those eight Li family Heavenly Immortals appeared, they chose relatively suitable opponents based on their strength.

By relatively suitable, meaning their opponent’s realm typically surpassed theirs slightly.

To fight freely, they, like Li Yunran, left the Primal Spirit Realm.

Nonetheless, the number of Li family’s Heavenly Immortal Cultivators naturally pales in comparison to five or six allied Heavenly Immortal forces, so ultimately, only Qingxuan remained a Heavenly Immortal for the Li family, while the opponents still had four or five Heavenly Immortals!

In this situation, Qingxuan’s limit was taking down two Heavenly Immortal Cultivators.

As for the remaining two or three Heavenly Immortals, clan members had to rely on formations to deal with them.

The battle was extremely bloody and brutal!

Just within two hours of fighting erupting, thousands upon thousands of Cultivators perished, turning to flesh, bones, and falling upon the earth.

Of course, due to the Mountain Protection Array protecting the Li family Cultivators, the majority of the deceased Cultivators were from these various forces.

But it didn’t mean the Li family was without casualties; even with the Mountain Protection Array, clan members would still perish.

Because among those hundred thousand Cultivators, inevitably some practiced unique Methods, like curses, Curse Killing Secret Techniques.

However, causing the greatest casualties to the Li family members was a special Cultivator who could spread plague through curses!

Before this, this Cultivator hadn’t appeared, naturally making it hard to guard against such methods.

If not for many clan members suddenly suffering from the plague, and even perishing instantly, they might never have realized it was the cause.

But once aware of the plague, the Li family no longer feared such techniques.

As Li Zhirui’s family, before departing, he left behind a heritage of all Methods and Secret Techniques, except his Fundamental Cultivation Technique.

The Lotus Seed Skill was naturally included!

So, when numerous Li family Cultivators employed the Lotus Seed Skill, the Power of Purification soared rapidly, and the plague was swiftly eradicated.

Despite fewer casualties on the Li family’s side and more on the opposite side, the situation was unfavorable for the Li family!

Because the two Heavenly Immortal without anyone to stop them, didn’t join the battle but continuously attacked the Mountain Protection Array.

Under their attacks, the Spirit Light of the Mountain Protection Array had dimmed considerably.

Although still a long time from breaking the Formation, this trend was exceptionally worrying.

"No! We cannot continue letting those two Heavenly Immortals attack the Mountain Protection Array; we must find a way to stop them!" The Clan Leader frowned slightly, feeling increasingly anxious.
