CapĂtulo 1936: Chapter 1437: Pending Repair
Despite Li Zhiruiâs power being greatly suppressed, his presence brought immense pressure to everyone.
The cultivators of the Floating Light Realm all had serious expressions, with their mana pushed to the limit. Once he made a move, they would instantaneously unleash the attacks they had been readying to counter him.
âYou all are being overly cautious, Iâm not some flood or fierce beast.â Seeing this, Li Zhirui couldnât help but chuckle.
Yet, instead of relaxing, everyone became even more tense. Although he wasnât a flood or fierce beast, he was far more terrifying!
After all, the former might only cost the lives of some among them, while the latter not only wanted everyoneâs lives but also coveted their territory.
âYour Excellency, you carry an extraordinary aura and noble self-esteem, clearly a righteous cultivator, why resort to such disgraceful acts?â a cultivator immediately questioned loudly.
âHahahahahaâŠâ
Upon hearing this, Li Zhirui laughed heartily, stopping after a while, with a mocking smile on his face, he said: âDonât you find it funny when you speak such words?â
In this world, is there really anything like righteous or crooked paths? Itâs merely a difference in cultivation beliefs and racial stance.
Today, when Immortal Tao prevails, they conveniently claim righteousness, and when itâs the Demonic Taoâs turn tomorrow, they can declare the same.
Even the Devil Race, as long as they are powerful enough, can label themselves as righteous.
The so-called distinction between good and evil is more determined by strength rather than actions, beliefs, or race.
When oneâs strength is insufficient, using such an unsubstantial title only provokes laughter.
Apart from that, there is no real utility!
The cultivatorsâ faces turned dark, not knowing what to say, perhaps not expecting that Li Zhirui cared nothing for these things, even sneering at them.
âMake your move!â
No sooner had he finished speaking, Li Zhirui charged forward, and once he was among the crowd, like a wolf among sheep, he instantly slew several unsuspecting cultivators.
Instantly, the Li familyâs morale soared, a group of clan members, fierce and unstoppable, bombarded the Floating Light Realm with various dazzling spirit lights, claiming countless lives.
Though their reaction was slightly delayed, they werenât frightened by the current situation; instead, they quickly composed themselves and organized a counterattack.
Both sides swiftly descended into a brutal battle, with lives being lost at any given moment.
However, due to Li Zhiruiâs presence and their early advantage, the Li family currently held the upper hand, yet as more cultivators from the Floating Light Realm joined, the situation was slowly turning against them.
Li Zhirui saw this and was instead pleased, as the objective was indeed to draw more of their forces, preventing them from quickly rushing back when their rear was under threat.
But seeing the increasing casualties of his family members, beneath his expressionless face, there was a trace of anxiety and worry.
So, when Li Zhirui saw the right moment, he instructed the clan to temporarily retreat, forming a defensive formation to withstand the increasingly fierce attacks from the Floating Light Realm.
Actually, he had a bigger plan in mind; after all, if it was only to hold back these cultivators, it didnât require his personal oversight; the family had plenty capable of such tasks.
âHahahaha, you guys are nothing special! With this level of strength, you dare invade our Floating Light Realm? Truly reckless!â a cultivator from the other side couldnât help but laugh arrogantly, with a wildly conceited demeanor.
Li Zhirui remained unmoved. Having such people around was beneficial, as it could amplify their internal pride and arrogance, making the atmosphere hotter and, thus, dulling their judgment and perception abilities.
âTheyâre about to falter, strike hard!â That cultivator shouted hysterically, charged ahead eagerly with a fanatical expression.
And behind him, a group of cultivators followed closely, with such a stance that it seemed the next moment they could directly break through the Li familyâs defense.
To lure them into a deeper trap, Li Zhirui specifically instructed his clan not to counter with full strength, only using half of their power to ensure their Defensive Array wasnât breached, and to take this opportunity to consume pills, slowly recovering their mana.
But this deliberate show of weakness by the Li family led them to believe the Li family was truly overwhelmed, immediately increasing their assault intensity. Some overly fanatical cultivators left only a thin defense around themselves, investing the rest of their mana entirely into the offense!
Half a quarterâŠ
A quarterâŠ
Two quartersâŠ
âŠ
The seemingly precarious and soon-to-be-breached defense miraculously held out for an hour!
Looking at both sides again, although the Li family members were slightly fatigued, their fighting spirit was high, with full vigor and energy; in contrast, the frenzied attacking cultivators from the Floating Light Realm were mostly exhausted, with little mana left.
âNot good! Weâve fallen into a trap! Junior Brother Bai and the others are in danger now!â
Even the dullest of the cultivators in the rear noticed something was amiss, being greatly alarmed, they quickly rallied everyone to support.
However, the Li family reacted even faster!
âNow, strike with full force and leave none of these reckless cultivators alive!â At Li Zhiruiâs command, a thousand multicolored divine powers, spells, magic artifacts, and talismans surged out, forming a terrifying torrent in mid-air that struck fiercely!
