Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 1370 - 1154: Vicious

The Sea Clan launched such a large-scale army that even with the intention of concealment, it could not escape the notice of those attentive, let alone their lack of any intention to hide.

Along the way, they moved mightily, causing even the seawater to flow backward and the winds and waves to halt.

This display terrified countless cultivators, many of whom were already preparing to flee, abandoning the sea territory they had just seized not long ago.

"Jiu, the power of the Sea Clan is truly terrifying! If they attack our family, I’m afraid we won’t be able to hold our ground." Da Qing looked at the beast tide from afar, feeling deeply shaken in his heart.

"Indeed, the Sea Clan is serious this time!"

Li Zhirui sighed, feeling quite fortunate that the Sea Clan did not regard small forces like theirs but aimed to take down major powers like the Cave Abyss Sect.

If successful, it would greatly intimidate cultivators like them, and by then, I fear no cultivator would wish to stay.

"The Sea Clan wants to subdue us without a fight, but the question is whether they have the strength to do so." Jiang Fengwu’s words were not a doubt but a hope that the Sea Clan’s action this time would fail!

For if they could win this battle, the Sea Clan’s strength would be severely diminished and within the next century, they would be unable to wage any large wars.

And this would be a great boon for small forces like the Li family.

They would have ample time to grow peacefully, develop, and strengthen.

Even if they eventually withdraw from the sea territory, the gains from this century would surpass their current investments.

"Let’s go."

The Sea Clan’s army stretched tirelessly, but there was no longer any need to watch.

Though the upcoming war was significant and involved their family’s interests in the sea territory, Li Zhirui had no intention of helping.

It wasn’t that he didn’t understand the principle of shared prosperity and shared loss, but that since the Cave Abyss Sect had not sent people for help, they must be confident in dealing with the enemy, so why should they go out of their way?

On the contrary, Li Zhirui had to guard against the Cave Abyss Sect suddenly retreating, leaving small forces like theirs stranded to die in the sea territory.

Once back at the colony, Li Zhirui gathered all family members, saying: "Don’t think too much, just follow the family’s arrangement, and if danger arises, the family will never abandon everyone."

The anxious crowd calmed slightly, still nervous and afraid, but not as panicked and helpless as they initially were.

They couldn’t help it; the scale of the Sea Clan’s forces this time was indeed frightening.

Just the attack on the Cave Abyss Sect involved at least a million water devils and nearly a hundred individual immortals, the number of human and earth immortals unknown.

Unexpectedly, the Yumen He Family and Xiaxian Sect were of similar scale.

But what everyone truly feared was that the Sea Clan, while apparently attacking major forces, would also secretly divide their troops and wipe out smaller forces, so many small forces were prepared to escape the sea territory at any time.

The Li family was no exception!

Moreover, the Li family had a natural advantage in this regard, being stationed only four hundred miles from the East Continent, and at full speed, it would only take a couple of moments to reach.

After reassuring the clan members, Li Zhirui gathered Jiang Fengwu and other individual immortals along with the elders in the main hall to discuss how the family should act under the circumstances.

"Ancestor Rui, can the cultivators win this battle?"

This was the crucial question, for if the cultivators won, the near-sea region would be taken by the Immortal Tao, and they could develop safely in the sea territory, rebuilding Wanling Island and acquiring spiritual objects.

But if they failed, their previous efforts would all be in vain, and they could only retreat awkwardly back to Shanhai State, holding the Twin Gorges Immortal City.

"I don’t know."

Li Zhirui shook his head; he hadn’t seen many battles of this scale and found it difficult to give a relatively accurate judgment, especially since many factors could influence such a war, and small occurrences might reverse the situation anytime.

"But since the Cave Abyss Sect hasn’t chosen to retreat by now, they must have some confidence and certainty."

Seeing everyone’s heavy-hearted looks, Li Zhirui smiled and said: "Why think so much? Regardless of their victory or defeat, it’s enough to ensure the clan members’ safety."

Also, in terms of information gathering, with the Wind Breath Clan as their vassal race, the Li family would receive news faster than other forces, whether in victory or defeat, giving them more time to prepare.

"Go about your business."

Li Zhirui waved his hand, and he vanished without a trace.

Even though in front of everyone he maintained an air of calmness, internally he was very nervous, as the upcoming battle was crucial for the family’s control over this four hundred miles of sea territory!

Moreover, a single misstep could cause considerable losses for the family.

——

Roar!

"Kill!"

Amidst the anxiety of countless cultivators, the Cave Abyss Sect had already clashed with the Sea Clan.

As soon as they met, they attacked fiercely in unison, intending to seize the initiative, but neither side succeeded.

An intensely fierce battle erupted instantly!

In the blink of an eye, countless beings fell, and numerous water devil corpses fell into the sea, quickly forming a floating island, with blood dyeing the surrounding waters red, spreading outward, appearing like a sea of blood.

And the great array on the cultivators’ side, after the clash of both sides, shattered notably within an hour.

It should be known that this was a Human Immortal Rank great array; though not the Mountain Protection Array, it was connected with the surrounding islands and seas, boasting considerable defensive strength comparable to the Mountain Protection Array, yet under the pressure of a million water devils, it only lasted an hour before being shattered!
