Chapter 1525: Chapter 1231: Prohibition_2
So whether Li Zhirui can obtain the desired treasure is still an unknown; we can only hope he gets his wish fulfilled and everything goes as planned.
The current situation of the ruins indeed resembles what Da Qing speculatedâ the situation is becoming more complicated and increasingly tense.
With the arrival of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yumen He Family, and the Xiaxian Sect, this small remote place has surprisingly gathered four Heavenly Immortal forces, with Heavenly Immortals personally overseeing the situation. How could it not draw the attention of other forces?
Therefore, in a short time, nearby forces have sent disciples and subordinates to gather information, eager to find out what major event is happening here.
Then, somehow, the news about an extraordinary ruin here spread rapidly.
The result is that more forces are swarming in, and the disciples of the Cave Abyss Sect alone can no longer prevent the creatures trying to intrude!
Even before the Great Array of the ruins has been cracked, many creatures are already appearing around the ruins!
âI didnât expect the news to leak this fast; there must be someone intentionally spreading it out.â A certain Earth Immortal of the Cave Abyss Sect said, looking troubled.
If that wasnât the case, the news couldnât possibly have spread so quickly and widely!
Even the Sea Clan has sent people here!
And aside from this great Heavenly Immortal force, there are also the two Immortal Dao Heavenly Immortal forces, the Five-color Mountain and Floating Bright Sect to the west, along with the Devil Race.
This means that this ruin has already gathered eight Heavenly Immortal forces!
As for the Earth Immortal and Human Immortal forces, there are even more; the area around the ruins is already teeming with creatures, but the closest are still those eight major forces.
When Li Zhirui came again, this was the scene he saw.
But instead of feeling nervous, he sighed with relief, because the more chaotic the situation, the greater the chance for those with lower cultivation like him to take advantage of the confusion.
âFellow Daoists, regardless of whether there have been conflicts or disputes between us before, standing from the perspective of the human race, shouldnât we ask the Devil Race and Sea Clan to leave?â Guang Xi, the Heavenly Immortal of Floating Bright Sect, said in a calm tone.
The words were spoken under the guise of righteousness but were actually an attempt to drive away two competitors.
âIndeed, creatures different from ours must have diverging intentions! Whatâs more, the Devil Race holds a grudge akin to a blood sea with our human race, and the Sea Clan also originated from the Devil Race. Why should we allow them to explore our Immortal Dao ruins?â Another Heavenly Immortal chimed in.
âSuch grand words, but isnât it all for the treasures in the ruins.â
The Devil Race Heavenly Immortal sneered and said, âIf youâre unsatisfied, then letâs have a fight! Loser cannot enter the ruins, dare to bet with me?â
With this proclamation, those Immortal Dao Heavenly Immortals didnât dare to respond promptly.
If they really lost, wouldnât they miss out on this opportunity? Especially with the ruinâs Great Array on the verge of breaking.
They couldnât possibly, under the watchful eyes of the public, lose and still have the face to stay here, right?
Moreover, since the Devil Race has said this, it wouldnât be appropriate for them to team up and drive them away.
âGet out! Devil Race, Sea Clan, get out! This is the territory of the human race!â
It was unknown which bold cultivator suddenly shouted from the crowd, and immediately, the crowd, as though ignited, kept shouting, their voices ascending into the skies and echoing continuously.
âWho! Who is it!â
The Immortal Demon Beast from the Devil Race glared, releasing a terrifying pressure in an instant, suppressing the surrounding cultivators and simultaneously deducing who the culprit was.
Because it instantly knew that the voice came from an Amplifying Stone, not from a cultivator directly.
However, its pressure didnât spill out, held back by a few human Heavenly Immortals.
Strangely enough, it couldnât deduce anything, as if the otherâs fate was shrouded in a thick fog, and no matter how it calculated, it couldnât dispel the fog.
This made it suspect Qing He and other human Heavenly Immortals right away, as it seemed too much like a well-laid trap to use this opportunity to expel the Devil Race and Sea Clan from the ruins.
After all, those few Amplifying Stones really looked like arrangements prepared by the human race in advance!
But what it didnât know was, those few human Heavenly Immortals were equally puzzled, exchanging glances, seeing the surprise and queries in each otherâs eyes.
This matter indeed had nothing to do with the human Heavenly Immortals, because it was done by Li Zhirui!
He left those words within several Amplifying Stones during the clash between the two Heavenly Immortals, then, when no one was watching, scattered the stones around while walking.
Li Zhirui wasnât harboring extreme hatred towards the Devil Race and Sea Clan; he simply did it to reduce competition!
Blame it on the Devil Race and Sea Clanâs natural opposition to the human race; they are the easiest to be driven away together, unlike other forces all originating from the human race, which are not so easy to incite and make a united front against outsiders.
Moreover, theyâve brought too many clansfolk, dozens of Human Immortals, hundreds of Individual Immortal Demon Beasts, and even several Earth Immortals.
Looking at this, it seemed like they wanted to monopolize all the treasures within the ruins.
But it has to be said, this move by Li Zhirui did indeed give those Heavenly Immortals a good reason to join forces to drive away the Devil Race and Sea Clan without worrying about losing face.
After all, it was because the human cultivators were so indignant that they were eager to follow public opinion and collectively expel the Devil Race and Sea Clan.
Faced with the alliance of six major Heavenly Immortal forces, the Devil Race and Sea Clan couldnât bear the enormous pressure and had to retreat resentfully.
âDamn it! Damn it! Donât let me find out who ruined my good deeds, or Iâll make them suffer a fate worse than death!â The Immortal Demon Beast roared with extreme anger.
Li Zhirui listened to these words with an unwavering expression, not perturbed at all. He wasnât afraid because he knew nothing could be found out, and they wouldnât be able to uncover his true identity.
After making this move, he restrained himself and quietly awaited the opening of the ruins.
âŠ
Meanwhile.
The expelled Devil Beasts and Water Devils were naturally filled with deep dissatisfaction and towering rage.
âAre you willing to just go back in disgrace?â The Heavenly Immortal Demon Beast asked coldly.
âWhatâs your idea, feel free to share?â
âNow, with the forces of various Immortal Dao influences mostly concentrated around the ruins, if we take the opportunity to attack their mountain gates now, it will surely be much easier than before, and the gains may very well surpass those of the ruins.â
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Immortal from the Sea Clan looked at it like a fool and said, âIf you want to die, do it alone, but donât drag us down with you!â
Not to mention that the mountain gates of those Immortal Dao influences are strongly defended, and surely there are hidden forces sitting in them; it wouldnât be as easy as it imagined.
Even if it succeeded, so what? Donât forget, the current Primal Spirit Realm is no longer the domain of the Devil Race, but the human race is the strongest!
And among the human race, the power of the Immortal Dao holds a slight edge.
By then, the Immortal Dao would definitely retaliate, and who knows how many Devil Beasts across the East Continent would perish because of a momentary anger from it.
âHmph! Didnât expect you to be so timid, no wonder the Sea Clan has been so disappointing over the years.â
The Heavenly Immortal Demon Beast grumbled discontentedly, âIf you dare not act, then we shall move alone.â
âA word to the wise is hard to listen to if theyâre already a ghost!â The Sea Clan Heavenly Immortal shook its head, full of regret, because, under normal circumstances, they might not have another chance to meet again.
Back to the current situation!
Originally under the efforts of Qing He and others, the Great Array of the ruins was somewhat shaky, and after the addition of several major Heavenly Immortal forces, it was already on the verge of collapsing.
Now, several days have passed, and the Great Array has finally been cracked!
Cracklingâ
It seemed as if pieces of glazed tiles were peeling off and falling away, eventually disappearing from everyoneâs sight at once.
But the moment the Great Array was broken, not a single cultivator dared to make a move.
Because those few Heavenly Immortal Great Abilities simultaneously ascended into the sky.
âThe ruin has been cracked by a coalition of the Cave Abyss Sect, Xiaxian Sect, Yumen He Family, Great Zhou Dynasty, Five-color Mountain, and Floating Bright Sect, so no other forcesâ cultivators are allowed to enter.â
