Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 1390 - 1164: Rapidly
Chapter 1390: Chapter 1164: Rapidly
But unexpectedly, just upon returning, Jiang Fengwu informed them to abandon many territories, consolidate power, and only guard the most core few thousand-mile boundary.
"Isn’t this approach too weak? The Cave Abyss Sect might take this opportunity to further target our family," Da Qing could understand the purpose of this strategy but couldn’t help feeling some concern.
"That’s why Zhirui has already headed south to cause trouble for the Cave Abyss Sect, diverting their attention."
"What?"
Da Qing and the others were shocked upon hearing this, but considering Li Zhirui’s strength and methods of self-preservation, there was nothing much to worry about, though there was some doubt about whether he could succeed.
"Wait for some time; news from the Cave Abyss Sect should come soon."
Jiang Fengwu looked at everyone and said, "Before that, I need you all to guard outside, including you, Ming Yao. Your identity no longer needs to be hidden."
From the Li family’s decisive abandonment of the Ten Thousand Spirit Sea Area, it was evident that Li Mingyao’s identity could no longer be concealed.

"If those loose cultivators dare to invade the family again, we will ensure they don’t return!"
Everyone had a pent-up rage but could not vent it on the Cave Abyss Sect. So they could only seek some compensation from those individual immortals.
No one rested; each person determined their posts at the Immortal City and the marketplace and set off immediately.
Those individual immortals bought by the Cave Abyss Sect, upon learning that the Li family abandoned many territories, realized their upcoming moves would be very risky, so most concealed their whereabouts and ceased action.
After all, their original agreement with the Cave Abyss Sect was to greatly weaken the Li family, and now that the Li family lost so much territory, in every respect, the condition was met!
Thus, they successfully completed their task, and even retreating immediately wouldn’t pose a problem.
Indeed, some cautious individual immortals chose to leave upon fulfilling the condition, but two or three thought the Li family was weak and exploitable, believing they might acquire more resources, so they planned to stay and wait for an opportunity.
However, their thoughts were destined to fail. The Li family was not the weak target they assumed.
When they attempted to rob once more, they fell right into a web the Li family had woven, ultimately failing to acquire more spiritual objects and losing their lives, leaving only a bit of spirit light reincarnated!
To deter others, the Li family brutally cast these two corpses in stone, kneeling at the gate of Mount Wanxian.
Meanwhile, news from the south reached Jiang Fengwu, Da Qing, and others.
The Cave Abyss Sect had clashed with the Ghost Clan, and the scale kept expanding; originally, it was just battles at the Mortal Realm, but now even individual immortals had joined.
Moreover, because that piece of land was transformed by the Ghost Clan into an environment more suitable for themselves, the Yin Qi was rich, and the Death Energy was thick, naturally imposing extra pressure on the cultivators.
Just like how the Human Dao Law Net suppresses cultivators, though it wasn’t as prominent, it was certainly disadvantageous to them.
In the unprepared state of the Cave Abyss Sect, they suffered a minor loss, provoking more anger, and a large number of disciples began to enter the battlefield, joining the fight against the Ghost Clan, further dispersing the Cave Abyss Sect’s focus.
"It seems that Zhirui succeeded!"
Jiang Fengwu breathed a sigh of relief, letting his previously tense heart slightly relax.
"If it succeeded, then why hasn’t Jiu returned yet?" Xiaoqing asked with some confusion.
Da Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Probably Jiu has other plans, so he might not return in the short term."
"Yes, this move is only a temporary relief of the family crisis, unable to last long, so Zhirui must have other arrangements. We just need to guard the core territory; he’ll handle the rest."
Da Qing added, "During this time, everyone should focus on cultivation; when Jiu returns, he will surely lead us to reclaim those lost territories!"
Everyone nodded; there wasn’t much they could do now. Everything depended on the results from Li Zhirui’s side for the next step of action.
Let’s talk about both sides.
"Hmph!"
The Cave Abyss Sect Leader, after reading the newly received report, spoke coldly with a sullen face, "I didn’t expect that Earth God Huang Cang was also a member of the Li family, deliberately setting up to deceive us, taking this opportunity to swindle away a large amount of resources, and the most crucial thing is revealing the sect’s layout, allowing the Li family to respond in advance, failing to inflict heavy losses on them."
"The Li family is indeed decisive! Once they realized they couldn’t hold so much territory, they decisively abandoned it all, focusing only on guarding the core area they’ve managed for years. This determination to cut off the arm to save the body is not something ordinary forces can do."
Though the goal was achieved, many elders present were dissatisfied because it did not reach their expected outcome!
Initially, the plan was for Earth God Huang Cang to stir up a massive upheaval in the heart of Shanhai State, causing a catastrophe for the Li family with significant losses.
Meanwhile, various forces near the Ten Thousand Spirit Sea Area would join to attack the Li family, who, while guarding against the Earth God and those individual immortals, could not possibly win against this alliance.
The worst scenario was the complete annihilation of the Li family members in the Ten Thousand Spirit Sea Area!
Combined with the chaos caused by those individual immortals randomly attacking Li family’s territories, not only losing spiritual objects but also causing many loose cultivators to feel uneasy and leave Shanhai State.
