Chapter 1299: Chapter 1118: Servant_2
As soon as the two entered the sea domain, they imdiately sensed the presence of nurous Individual Immortal Water Devils.
Li Zhirui couldn’t help but utter a thought to himself: The Cave Abyss Sect is certainly given attention! To send so many Individual Immortals to oversee, fearing that the Cave Abyss Sect might not be content and may rise again with an army?
Unfortunately, given the current situation of the Cave Abyss Sect, they should be busy licking their wounds, and it is fundantally impossible to dispatch a large number of cultivators to fight for territory.
After all, when the Demon Cultivators were blocked on Mount Cave Abyss for so long, even with the protection of the Mountain Protection Array, casualties were inevitable. The key issue is that the Mountain Protection Array is severely damaged, and Cave Abyss Sect needs to repair it promptly.
Otherwise, if the Demon Cultivators return, without the Mountain Protection Array to block them, the Cave Abyss Sect will suffer greatly.
“I’m already impatient!”
After speaking, Li Zhixuan flew off in a particular direction.
Her keen Spirit Sense told her that this particular Water Devil was the most suitable opponent for her battle!
As for whether the Water Devil agreed, that was already not under its control.
Li Zhirui, lost in thought, was startled by Li Zhixuan’s movent. He glanced at her direction and then found another Water Devil nearby.
They were only about twenty to thirty miles apart. If either encountered danger, they could assist each other in ti.
Clang!
With Mysterious Sword in hand, Li Zhixuan swung down a slash only to hear a piercing sound of tal clashing.
It was because she chose as her opponent a great beast Water Devil wielding a large knife!
“Sword Cultivator?”
The great beast looked briefly surprised at this sudden appearance. Then, a gleeful smile appeared on its mouth as it excitedly proclaid, “Let learn from your skills! If you’re not worthy, then beco my food, a stepping stone on my path to the strongest knife cultivation!”
With that said, it didn’t care whether Li Zhixuan agreed or not and rushed forward. The massive knife, as tall as its body, descended with crushing force like a mountain toppling over.
Crack—
With just one strike, it pressed Li Zhixuan’s body down a level, and nurous cracks appeared on the ground beneath her.
Nonetheless, Li Zhixuan was a battle-hardened warrior. Before the great beast’s second attack landed, she freed herself from the ground and launched a counterattack.
For a mont, amidst the dance of knives and swords, sharp Sword Qi and knife energy clashed. Within tens of miles around them, no living creature dared approach, fearing an unforeseen calamity.
At this mont in the battlefield, Li Zhixuan was fervently clashing with the great beast. The sound of the sword and knife colliding was music to her ears.
She hadn’t encountered such an opponent in many years, so she was extrely excited and wanted to determine a winner with the opponent.
However, their strengths were similar, and it was impossible to distinguish a victor in a short ti.
This t Li Zhixuan’s expectations. She didn’t need an opponent she could defeat in a short ti; instead, a battle like this could aid her cultivation.
Her ever-increasing battle fervor made her attacks more aggressive, and rather than diminishing with ti, the great beast began to struggle.
Because it chose an overwhelming force to best ten skill path, which though very powerful, had a noticeable drawback—large consumption of stamina, making prolonged battles untenable.
Bang!
The great beast’s massive body was directly knocked away by Li Zhixuan.
“Cough, cough!”
The great beast lay on the ground in a sorry state, spitting out several mouthfuls of fresh blood. It looked dispirited, which was due to excessive consumption of Mana and significant blood loss.
“Who are you? The Cave Abyss Sect definitely doesn’t have a Sword Cultivator in the Individual Immortal Realm as powerful as you!”
Li Zhixuan remained silent, refusing to answer its question, especially upon seeing it unable to continue fighting and unable to further hone herself. She imdiately rushed forward and finished it off.
Crack!
As Mysterious Sword was about to cut through the great beast’s body, a Spirit Light appeared suddenly, blocking the fatal blow.
“Hmm?”
Li Zhixuan frowned as an unforeseen Individual Immortal Water Devil appeared, intervening to save the great beast.
“Hmph!”
This greatly displeased her because she had never failed to kill her desired target until now!
Li Zhixuan charged directly at the great beast, Sword Qi piercing the sky, indicating she was about to unleash formidable Divine Power to kill the great beast.
The Individual Immortal Water Devil was alard and hurried to intervene to save the great beast once more.
Unexpectedly, however, Li Zhirui had rely been acting earlier; his true target was not the great beast but this Water Devil itself!
A Sword Qi of golden light sliced through the sky, appearing before the Water Devil instantly, much too fast and close for it to employ another technique in response.
The Sword Light sliced into its body, imdiately cleaving it in two.
After dealing with it, Li Zhixuan turned on the great beast once more.
“I don’t want to die! I’m only over a thousand years old; I still have a long lifespan, I can’t die! I’m the Divine of this sea domain, you cannot kill , otherwise, you’ll incur Karmic Force!”
The great beast cried out chaotically, sensing her murderous intent.
“Divine?”
Upon hearing this term, Li Zhixuan halted.
Common Water Devils dying are inconsequential, but a Water Devil like the great beast, who possesses a Water God’s position, will definitely have Sea Clan observing secretly.
If that’s the case, the Water Devil Li Zhixuan killed earlier was likely part of the Sea Clan, who was watching over the great beast and intervening when it encountered life-threatening danger.
“That’s right, I’m a Water God. As long as you promise not to kill , I can pledge loyalty to you!” The great beast hurriedly exclaid, its tone full of lowliness.
However, in the face of death, lowliness is not necessarily pejorative.
“Indeed, it’s tricky to handle.”
After finishing his battle, Li Zhirui ca over and heard its pleas. He considered for a mont and said, “Perhaps you should take it as a servant. With it around, things could be more convenient if sothing arises.”
Li Zhixuan seriously considered for a mont before agreeing and said, “Give a wisp of your Spiritual Soul, swear an oath, and let put a restriction on it!”
With these three safeguards, unless it sought the intervention of a Great Ability, it would be unable to escape Li Zhixuan’s control from then on.
The great beast felt utterly humiliated, but for survival, it had no choice but to agree and did as instructed.
Li Zhixuan sensed for a mont, indeed capable of easily controlling its life and death, and nodded in satisfaction.
Having an agent within the Sea Clan, especially an Individual Immortal with a Water God’s position, was indeed valuable. If sothing major happened within the Sea Clan, they could know in advance and prepare accordingly.
“Ask about how many Individual Immortal Realm Water Devils there are five hundred miles around, their strength, specialties, and positions,” Li Zhirui said with a smile.
They couldn’t eliminate all Water Devils around the great beast, for doing so would certainly raise suspicion and invite scrutiny, likely exposing its identity.
This was sothing he didn’t want to see.
After all, they had just acquired this agent; it would be careless to allow it to be compromised before any information was gathered.
Upon hearing this, the great beast imdiately realized their intention but coldly refrained from answering.
“Hmph!”
Li Zhixuan shot it a cold glance, warning, “This is my most trusted kin; his command is my command! Go and do it!”
Still, the great beast didn’t move.
But within monts, it behaved as if struck by lightning, trembling incessantly, sweat pouring from its body.
“This is just a minor warning. If there’s a next ti, I’ll let you experience other thods!” Li Zhixuan’s tone was filled with killing intent.
“Yes, I’ll sort out what you need right away; this will take so ti.”
Seeing this, Li Zhirui couldn’t help but chuckle lightly; when dealing with so servants, being overly gentle would only make them lack reverence, demanding instead that one’s strength be demonstrated.
Before long, a battered great beast approached holding a Jade Slip and respectfully said, “Master, here is the information you need.”
“Hmm.”
Li Zhirui took a glance, morized the contents, and then began selecting the next hunting target.
