Chapter 1375: Chapter 1156: Happy Birthday to the Great Motherland! _2

You should know that the internal competition and fighting within the Sea Clan is extremely intense. Once a tribe’s strength is weakened, it is highly likely to be invaded by nearby tribes!

This is why many tribes are unwilling to continue participating in the war; at that time, they might not be exterminated by the cultivators, but rather die at the hands of other Sea Clan tribes.

Don’t those few Earth Immortals at the top understand their thoughts? Of course, they are very clear about it! And some of them even want to retreat.

It’s just that due to their position, it’s not appropriate for them to bring it up proactively.

“Everyone, what are your thoughts?”

Now, they can ‘go along with’ the majority’s opinions.

“Given the current situation, we indeed have no chance of turning things around.”

It’s not because of strength, but because people’s hearts are not aligned; everyone is worried that once their strength is greatly diminished, they will be invaded by other tribes. How can they continue to fight desperately against the cultivators in such a situation?

As soon as these words were spoken, many Individual Immortals, Human Immortals, and Water Devils sighed in relief, as they were also afraid of death. In this ongoing battle, dozens of Individual Immortals and Human Immortals have fallen, and they are worried they might be next.

Now, the battle will soon be over, and they don’t have to worry about the risk of their own demise.

“But we absolutely cannot let those cultivators easily obtain the nearshore! Before retreating, extract all the Spirit Veins nearshore, leaving only the last bit, ensuring it doesn’t bring Karmic Force to the tribe.”

The ruthless methods of the Cave Abyss Sect have also reached their ears, but the Sea Clan has not yet been driven to despair, and naturally, they are unwilling to bear so much Karmic Force.

“Meanwhile, take away all Spiritual Objects, even if they are immature! Destroy anything that cannot be taken away directly!”

The Earth Immortal’s face revealed a hint of ruthlessness, saying, “I want those cultivators to receive a barren land!”

“That’s right, those collected Spiritual Objects are just right for a little compensation.”

All the other Earth Immortals nodded in agreement; since those cultivators wouldn’t let them off easily, they naturally had to seize the opportunity to retaliate fiercely.

“Now, let’s start taking action! Have all the clan members withdraw.”

“Yes!”

All Individual Immortals, Human Immortals, and Water Devils bowed and quickly left, hoping to seize the opportunity to gather more Spiritual Objects and Spirit Veins.

Thus, the originally intense battlefield instantly became silent, and the Water Devils stopped appearing.

“Has the Sea Clan admitted defeat and decided to retreat?”

Many cultivators were delighted at this thought because the endless and extremely dangerous battle had finally ended!

“There are still many Water Devils lurking in the nearby seabed, and it is very likely they are recovering or waiting for support.” Despite not wanting to dampen their optimistic imaginations, now is far from the time to relax; they need to stay vigilant!

However, the rare rest time can also make everyone happy and relax for a moment.

But as day after day passed, and the Sea Clan remained silent, hiding in the seabed, it aroused the curiosity and speculation of many cultivators.

Even some cultivators in the Immortal Realm began to think the Sea Clan intended to retreat and no longer wished to fight.

Suddenly one day, all the Sea Clan moved, but not to launch an attack on the cultivators; instead, they headed towards the distant sea.

Oh, oh, oh!

At this moment, all cultivators couldn’t help but cheer.

The great battle finally ended!

But when the cultivators rushed out of their narrow stronghold and came outside, they suddenly found that the Spiritual Energy in the sky and earth had become extremely sparse!

“This is not good!”

They rushed towards the nearby Spirit Vein as fast as possible, only to discover that the Spirit Vein was on the verge of collapse and could no longer produce Spiritual Energy.

Moreover, on their way, they witnessed a chaotic, desolate seabed with no signs of life!

“Such ruthless means, to take advantage of our inattention and empty out the entire near shore!” a certain Individual Immortal exclaimed indignantly.

Apart from the area within fifty miles of their stronghold, all other nearshore regions became a barren wasteland!

Even though the cultivators have obtained the near shore, they cannot derive profits from it in the short term. Instead, they need to invest a lot of manpower, materials, and finances to restore the sea area before talking about anything else.

Moreover, it’s possible that if they painstakingly restore the sea area, the Sea Clan might come again with similar actions, and no amount of resources could withstand such torments.

You should know that many Spiritual Objects need to be nurtured in the sea, and cultivators in such an environment are almost no match for the Water Devils of the same realm.

In other words, if the Sea Clan were really to do such a thing, they would also have difficulty defending themselves.

For a moment, this predicament left many cultivators frowning and feeling extremely frustrated.

“Do any of you have ideas or solutions?”

“Unexpectedly, the sea is ultimately the territory of the Sea Clan, unless we use a stronger force for defense.”

“Alas! Originally, after obtaining the vast sea area, we thought we could start acquiring Spiritual Objects to compensate for the losses of the previous battle. But now it seems not only can we not replenish, but we also need to continue investing, and there may not even be any income.”

“This problem can be solved later. The most important thing now is to occupy the territory.”

Hence, the cultivators who were previously united soon started arguing over a better piece of land.

The further towards the back of the sea area, the higher its value now, which naturally becomes the target of everyone’s contention.

However, these disputes have nothing to do with the distant Li family, who had long since started development, seamlessly connecting six hundred miles of sea area with the Shanhai State.

Placing the island chain at the outermost position to guard against Sea Clan invasions, while four hundred miles behind it, the Li family rebuilt a Wanling Island to manage the six hundred miles of sea area. Moreover, in case of danger, they could quickly retreat to the Twin Gorges Immortal City.

“Everyone, thank you for your hard work during this period! Rest well.”

Clan Leader Li Xinde personally came, showing how much the Li family values this sea area.

“I believe it won’t take long for the sea area everyone fought to conquer to start producing abundant Spiritual Objects, benefiting the family, and the family will also sell more high-quality and affordable Spiritual Objects for clan members to purchase!”

The clan members are quite receptive to this, each one excited and happy.

“Clan Leader! Good news! The Sea Clan facing the other two major forces have also retreated! All nearshore areas have once again become the territory of the East Continent Immortal Tao!”

At this moment, a clan member rushed in excitedly and loudly reported.

“Good! In this way, the family doesn’t have to worry about Water Devil attacks and can develop peacefully!”

In front of the Li family, there are quite a few forces; ordinary beast tides they are more than capable of helping fend off, and in dangerous situations, they can also serve as a warning.

“However, before the Water Devils retreated, they swept through the nearshore areas, plundering them, leaving them almost like a barren land, with no signs of growing Spiritual Objects, and even the Spirit Veins were extracted to the brink of breaking.” The clan member lowered their voice and said softly.

Li Xinde’s eyes flashed with surprise; he didn’t expect the Sea Clan to do such a thing.

Moreover, it is not difficult to see that they are mimicking the Cave Abyss Sect, just slightly less ruthless.

It’s just that the Sea Clan turned the near shore into a barren land, which will take considerable time to recover, but there is still a chance. The Cave Abyss Sect, on the other hand, directly cut off the supply, destroyed the Spirit Veins, and extinguished the hope of recovery.

However, for the Li family, or the forces in the northern near shore, this could be considered a good thing.

Because this sea area only destroyed the Spirit Veins near the Cave Abyss Sect, but there are still many places perfectly intact; they only need a little adjustment to start acquiring Spiritual Objects.

And when other sea areas can’t obtain some special, rare Spiritual Objects, if the Li family and these forces can offer them, they will surely earn quite a bit of Spirit Stones.

Although this approach can’t last long, at least it can earn some profits for a while.

“The Sea Clan has completely retreated, and the Immortal Tao achieved a comprehensive victory. The near shore is already in the hands of the Immortal Dao Practitioners! Everyone can feel at ease and boldly develop!” Li Xinde announced this great news emotionally, dispelling some clan members’ worries.
