Chapter 1469: Chapter 1203: Interesting (Part 2)
Thinking of this, the Turtle Immortal squinted his eyes, and the words he intended to say faded away in his mouth.
This is fine, let them suffer a bit and not constantly engage in chaotic, large-scale, disruptive activities.
The human race has been developing better in recent years, even though there are conflicts between Immortal Tao, Demonic Tao, and now Human Tao internally. However, through these struggles, they have rapidly grown stronger.
Clearly, it’s a very dangerous ti for the Sea Clan, yet unfortunately, at such a mont, several individuals erged to hold them back.
“There’s an old saying among humans: ‘External troubles must first be resolved by internal stability!'”
These words from the Turtle Immortal let the Dragon Tribe know that their companion and the Turtle Clan would support this decision, giving them peace of mind.
If the Dragon Tribe is the leader of the Sea Clan alliance, then the Turtle Clan is the caretaker. With their cooperation, things beco much easier to manage.
Under the joint proposal of the Dragon and Turtle Clans, the Sea Clan determined the major decision to develop the Outer World!
For this purpose, the Dragon Tribe dispatched a large number of elite and outstanding clan mbers, and the Turtle Clan followed closely. Though other tribes weren’t as decisive, they also contributed significantly.
A conflict within the Sea Clan seed to end quietly just like that.
Yet many tribes understood that the issue was rely shifted, and sooner or later, it would erupt. Moreover, the longer it is suppressed, the sharper the conflicts beco.
This is a tale of both sides.
“Jiu, did this great war end so hastily?” Xiaoqing, upon receiving the news, was full of astonishnt and shock.
After all, who would have thought that the mighty and aggressive Sea Clan would be so ‘easily defeated,’ directly pushed back into the deep sea by the Great Zhou Dynasty.
“Yes, it’s over,” Li Zhirui agreed casually, yet his mind was pondering the oddities within.
The Sea Clan made a significant error in dealing with the Great Zhou Dynasty!
And is this really a mistake a top power would make?
The Sea Clan might underestimate the Li family, but it’s impossible for them to underestimate the Great Zhou Dynasty!
Not to ntion that earlier, the Great Zhou Emperor and two Heavenly Immortals from the Cave Abyss Sect fought across space, would the Sea Clan’s Heavenly Immortals not know?
So was it deliberate? But why? Internal strife?
Thoughts flooded Li Zhirui’s mind, but in the end, he dismissed them all. There’s no need to delve deeply because even if he knew the truth, what could he do? The strength of the Li family is simply insufficient to gain any benefits from it.
“It’s a pity that the Water Devil in charge of this sea region was too timid, achieving little, and with the significant losses the Sea Clan suffered this ti, such grand events won’t occur again for a long ti,” Xiaoqing said with a tone full of regret and pity.
“There will be opportunities in the future.”
Li Zhirui changed the subject, saying, “The great battle is over, staying around is useless, everyone should return.”
Everyone naturally had no objections and boarded the Spirit Boat back to Mount Wanxian.
While passing through the Ten Thousand Spirit Sea Area, they left behind a group of clansn responsible for developnt and guarding there, which kept them reasonably busy.
Before long, everyone returned to the clan’s territory, and with nothing further to say, they disbanded, each returning to their own hos.
Of course, many clansn still harbored so resentnt, considering the family had prepared for the great war for such a long ti and with strategic materials, only for it to end like this, making their previous efforts seem like a joke.
However, such trivial matters didn’t require Li Zhirui’s personal intervention to soothe, so he dedicated more ti to cultivation.
It wasn’t that he was eager to break through, but cultivation requires persistent effort, and after witnessing the power of a Heavenly Immortal, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of nervousness and urgency.
Li Zhirui knew that being impatient wouldn’t help, so he redirected this mindset into cultivation.
Slow progress is still progress!
But he never expected that there would be a follow-up to this anticlimactic war with the Sea Clan, and the visitors were even more unexpected.
It turned out to be several Individual Immortals from the Cave Abyss Sect, specifically wanting to discuss sothing with him.
When Li Zhirui arrived, Da Qing and Li Xianxun had already been hosting them for a while.
Seeing this, he skipped the pleasantries and directly asked, “What advice do my Fellow Daoists have?”
“We dare not offer advice, but there is indeed a very important matter to discuss with Fellow Daoist,” Zhang Shiqian, the leader, said haughtily.
“Does Fellow Daoist know of the Sea Clan’s recent movents?”
“The Li family is weak and lacks the ability to gather information on the Sea Clan.”
Upon hearing this, a trace of disdain and contempt flashed across Zhang Shiqian’s eyes as he said loftily, “The Sea Clan has discovered an Outer World, and they are trying to seize that world.”
“Oh!” Li Zhirui responded calmly.
“Huh?” Zhang Shiqian looked at him incredulously, as if he couldn’t believe that was his reaction.
“The Li family is weak and lacks the ans and ability to get involved in this matter.”
This was a very clear refusal.
After hearing those words and considering the Cave Abyss Sect’s current actions, Li Zhirui imdiately understood their intentions.
They simply wanted to ally with the Li family or use them as a vanguard to test the waters.
Cooperate? Does the Li family have that strength? They’d die not knowing how they died!
An Outer World, even a Minor Thousand World, is incredibly precious, whether occupied as a controlled world or offered directly to the Heavenly Dao, it’s undoubtedly a highly, highly rewarding opportunity.
It’s said that once there was a power at the starting point of Individual Immortality that, by chance, discovered a Minor Thousand World, and it was even one that had just been promoted with the Heavenly Dao.
Yet, even in such circumstances, that Individual Immortal power grew into a colossus with over ten Individual Immortals and two Human Immortals within a little over a century.
Compared to them, the Li family isn’t even in the sa league.
And that force is now the leading Immortal Dao Sect in the Southern Domain – the Great Snow Mountain Sect.
The legendary rise of the Great Snow Mountain Sect remains popular in the Primal Spirit Realm, but such a miraculous event has not reoccurred to this day.
After all, discovering an Outer World is exceptionally difficult, let alone a Minor Thousand World or a weak Minor Thousand World.
“Fellow Daoist Li, this opportunity is once in ten thousand years; you cannot just watch it slip away!”
Stunned, Zhang Shiqian quickly urged as Li Zhirui refused, “If Fellow Daoist Li makes significant contributions, not to ntion becoming a Human Immortal, even reaching Earth Immortal would be possible, and the Sect will gift many precious Spiritual Objects and thods.”
“My decision is final, and will not change in the slightest!” Li Zhirui said resolutely.
“My Fellow Daoists, please leave. I just ca out of seclusion with a rare insight on advancing to the Realm of Human Immortality, only for it to be forcibly interrupted by your presence!”
With that, he abruptly departed, not caring about the expressions and reactions of Zhang Shiqian and his entourage.
“Hmph! You will regret this sooner or later!”
Zhang Shiqian, flushed with anger, left with his people.
The Cave Abyss Sect doesn’t want to be first, letting others take on the danger, thus setting their sights on the Li family, courting trouble because of their swift growth in recent years.
Although the Cave Abyss Sect primarily targeted the South, since there was a chance to weaken the Li family, they naturally wouldn’t miss it.
But the Li family, and Li Zhirui, aren’t foolish enough to shoulder such significant risks for the Cave Abyss Sect, not to ntion the considerable existing tensions between the two powers.
After the Cave Abyss Sect’s entourage left, Li Zhirui returned to the clan’s great hall.
“The Cave Abyss Sect truly thinks we’re fools!” Li Xianxun indignantly said.
“Haha! Interesting!”
To everyone’s surprise, Li Zhirui let out a chuckle, causing those present to be montarily stunned.
“That Outer World was discovered by the Sea Clan, and they are already developing it. Then how did the Cave Abyss Sect learn about it? More importantly, the Cave Abyss Sect seems to have a way to enter the Outer World!”
“Don’t you all find this very interesting?”
