CapĂtulo 1962: Chapter 1450: Explosion
For the sake of this plan, after some discussion, these Human Immortals decided not to bother with Li Zhixuanâs camp anymoreâeven if the enemy actively attacked, they would only defend.
They intended to focus their strength, directly deal with the invadersâ base, cut off their retreat, and then slowly find a way to finish them off.
So that very night, a team composed entirely of elite members of the Devil Race and Demonic Tao quietly set out, making a beeline for the base that had once left them with extremely unpleasant memories.
After a night of flying escape, as they were about to arrive, they slowed their pace and began to recover their depleted mana.
Two hours later, they set off again and soon reached their destination.
But the sight before their eyes was completely unexpected!
Under the dim, glowing sky, the valley that should have been protected by formations, filled with overlapping buildings, now had nothing at all! Not even a single trace was left behind.
Everyone searched inch by inch with their divine sense, yet couldnât find the slightest mark!
âDid they change bases, or have they already left the Floating Light Realm?â a Demon Cultivator frowned, unable to make a decision.
âIt should be the former.â
Another Demon Cultivator spoke: âThere are still over ten thousand invading cultivators left in the Floating Light Realm; they couldnât possibly have abandoned all those people.â
âThen what should we do now?â
Their goal was to destroy this base and sever the invadersâ retreat, but now there wasnât even the shadow of a targetâhow could they even begin?
âSince the other side chose to relocate, it shows their remaining strength is weak. The problem is, we canât find them in a short period of time.â
And they couldnât afford to spend too much time on this matterâafter all, a great battle could erupt at any moment, and they needed to rush back as quickly as possible.
The Demon Cultivator said in a low voice, âSo now, we can only destroy this place, declare weâve broken through their defenses, and see if we can fool them and deal a blow to their morale!â
âThat plan wonât work! If theyâre just relocating, they must have agreed on this beforehand.â
But after thinking it over, there was no better way; all they could do was try. Who knows, maybe it would work? At most, theyâd just be wasting some mana.
âWhen we start, keep your distance, in case those despicable scoundrels left behind traps when they left.â
Everyone was startled insideâindeed! Those damned invaders loved using that sort of trick.
Rumbleâ
Out of concern there could be traps left in the valley, none of them left the spirit boatâthey simply stood on it and unleashed their divine ability spells.
Explosions roared endlessly, dust soared to the sky, rocks shattered and tumbled down the slopes.
In just a short while, the whole valley was buried, filled in entirely by countless falling boulders!
Then, they cast a spell to create scenes nearby as if after a massive battle: corpses everywhere, blood-soaked and terrifyingâand used a memory stone to fully record it all.
This, then, was their âweaponâ to shake the invadersâ fighting spirit and morale!
With this forged âweapon,â the party set out to return, anxious in their hearts.
But what these devils and monsters didnât know was that, from the moment they entered the valley, a pair of eyes had been watching them all alongâevery word and action was heard and seen clearly.
That was Li Zhirui, hidden deep within the earth, guarding the space anchor!
He had nothing much to say about their actionsâafter all, they had no better options and could only fool themselves like this.
âFrom the looks of it, Zhixuan has given them quite a bit of pressure, otherwise they wouldnât have acted this way.â
Perhaps this time, they really could end the war here and conquer the Floating Light Realm!
And those devil beasts, after several more hours of flying escape, returned to the mountain camp and told the others about the situation at the base and their ruse.
âLooks like they were prepared, guarding against our attack,â a Demon Cultivator immediately said.
But faced with this situation, they were powerless to fix it.
âAs for the method you tried, letâs see if it has any effect.â Still, he didnât really hold out much hope.
A devil beast spoke, âYouâve all worked hard going back and forth. Go rest for now. Since thereâs no shortcut, we can only solve those invaders with sheer strength. When the time comes, weâll need your full effort.â
The others agreedâafter all, there was no other way.
Meanwhile, not far from them, inside the Primordial Spirit Campâ
âAncestor Xuan, I have something urgent to report.â A clansman suddenly arrived outside Li Zhixuanâs cave mansion and knocked at the door.
Since the natives of this realm were unwilling to join battle, Li Zhixuan couldnât force everyone to attack the mountainâafter all, the attacking side was at a natural disadvantage, and they had limited numbers, unable to sacrifice many as cannon fodder.
So she could only stay in camp and wait for an opportunity.
With a creaking sound, the door slowly opened.
âWhatâs happened?â
âGreetings, Ancestor Xuan.â
After bowing, he immediately reported his discovery, âJust now, I saw a group of devils and monsters quietly return from outside to the mountains.â
âOh?â
Li Zhixuanâs aloof expression immediately turned serious, and she pressed, âDid you notice anything else?â
âNothing else.â Even this was something he saw by accident; thinking there might be a secret behind it, he hurried back to make his report.
