Chapter 65: The gods fight, and the mortals suffer

Liusha Islands—Starfish Island.

Because of the evil cultivators doing evil everywhere, Li Tongming was sent to Starfish Island to take charge after his breakthrough. If it weren't for Li Changsheng's parents, a Qi-refining cultivator would be enough, which also shows the importance the Li family attaches to Li Changsheng.

In the secret room of Ganyang Cave, Li Tongming was practicing with his eyes closed. A small pile of spirit stones were placed around him, and a blue glow enveloped him.

At this moment, a continuous sound of bells came into his ears.

"Dong Dong Dong..."

Li Tongming's spell changed, and he stopped practicing. After collecting the remaining spirit stones, he walked out.

At this moment, the square of Starfish Island was already full of densely packed figures, and everyone's face was blooming with cheerful smiles, because today is the once-in-five-year spirit measurement conference.

On the high platform of the square stood an old man over 60 years old, who was leading the tribe to perform the ancestor worship ceremony. The old man was none other than Li Changsheng's biological father Li Hai.

Although Li Changsheng often gave them some elixirs to increase vitality, mortals are still mortals after all. Without magic power, they can only absorb one tenth of the medicine, and it is impossible to resist the erosion of time.

"Okay, please invite the immortal master of our clan to come!"

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Three black mists appeared out of thin air and turned into three handsome middle-aged men standing in the air above everyone's heads.

Seeing the three immortal masters appear at the same time, everyone hurriedly saluted respectfully and kept saying words like blessing. Only Li Hai was full of doubts.

Although he didn't know all the immortals of the Li family, the Li family's spirit test conference has always been hosted by only one person. This time, three of them appeared at the same time, which made him feel a little bad.

He bowed to the three people first, then asked: "I heard that the host this year is Master Changsheng, who is he?"

"I am Li Changsheng!"

After the voice fell, a middle-aged man in white clothes and with a handsome face stood up.

Li Hai's heart skipped a beat when he saw this, but he had seen a lot of things, so his expression did not change at all. When he was about to continue speaking, he was surrounded by stupid teammates.

"Hey! That's not right. I met Master Changsheng ten years ago, and his appearance is wrong!"

"Yes, clan leader, isn't Master Changsheng your son? How can you not recognize him?"

"That year, Master Changsheng was only fifteen years old. Maybe his appearance changed after practicing immortality."

"But why does he look different from the clan leader!"

The crowd whispered, but Li Hai's forehead was covered with cold sweat at this moment.

"How dare you bully immortals with your mortal body? You're so bold!"

The man in white was furious. They only knew that this was the territory of a Li family of immortal cultivators. They thought that it was impossible for mortals to have seen all the immortal cultivators, so they had already thought of a name for each of them. Who would have thought that they would be tricked by a mortal?

The man in white had a sullen face. He waved his sleeves, and a black hand appeared out of thin air, grabbing Li Hai directly.

"How dare you!"

A loud shout sounded, and a blue giant fist fell from the sky, instantly smashing the black hand.

A blue glow flashed, and Li Tongming appeared in front of the three people.

"Who are the three Taoist friends? Why did you come to my Li family and hurt my people for no reason?"

Li Tongming looked calm, but he was panicked in his heart. In his perception, these three people were all foundation-building cultivators, and one of them gave him some pressure, proving that his cultivation was higher than his.

"Hehehe...!"

The three of them suddenly laughed coldly. As a black mist emerged, the three handsome and well-dressed people turned into three old men with shriveled skin, emitting black air.

"Demon!"

Li Tongming's face changed slightly. The flesh and soul of mortals were no less valuable to demon cultivators than some magic treasures.

"Leave this man to me. You pack up all the mortals quickly."

Before he finished speaking, the black-robed old man in the middle took out a black flag and waved it towards Li Tongming.

"Hua La!"

A huge black wave rushed up to the sky. In the rolling black wave, countless black smoke swept towards Li Tongming.

"Damn it!"

Li Tongming slapped the storage bag on his waist, and a red talisman shot towards the black smoke. He immediately retreated dozens of feet.

Taking this opportunity, he took out a black sphere and cast a spell into it. A ferocious tiger with a metallic luster appeared. He thought about it and the tiger took the lead in blocking one of them.

Then he untied the spirit beast bag, and with the cry of an eagle, a blue-gold bird cut through the sky and fought with another person.

"Boom!"

The red talisman exploded in the black smoke, and countless flames burned, forming a fire cloud. The black smoke was instantly burned to pieces.

"Ahhh..."

The aftermath of the six foundation-building battles shook many people on the island away, and screams continued to be heard. Some mortals were directly killed, and everyone hid everywhere.

Li Tongming was furious. He never expected such an unexpected disaster.

He took out a light silver talisman, muttered a few words, and the talisman instantly flew out of his hand and turned into a stream of light and flew towards Qingyun Island.

The black-robed old man's face changed when he saw this scene. He didn't expect that this person was so wealthy, with a second-level spiritual bird and a puppet beast comparable to the initial stage of foundation building.

"Quick battle, quick decision!"

The old man in black robe gave an order and increased his magic power to attack Li Tongming. After a short time, Li Tongming was retreating steadily and was obviously outmatched.

His cultivation level was not that good to begin with, and he had to distract himself from controlling the puppet beast to fight, which was a huge drain on both his mana and his consciousness. However, he couldn't escape, so he just had to drag his family to help.

"Boom!"

The rocks on Starfish Island exploded and houses collapsed. Many mortals died tragically on the spot in the aftermath of the battle, with corpses scattered everywhere.

As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer. In front of immortal cultivators, mortal lives are as fragile as ants.

…

On Qingyun Peak, Li Daoling was practicing with his eyes closed. At this moment, a silver talisman came to him instantly.

Li Daoling opened his eyes and struck the silver talisman with one finger. The talisman spontaneously ignited. Li Tongming's urgent voice suddenly sounded: "Ancestor Daoling, the demon cultivator is attacking. Starfish Island is in trouble. Come to support quickly."

Li Daoling's face darkened when he heard this, and he rushed out of Qingyun Peak in an instant, and threw a talisman onto one of the peaks.

Just as Li Daoling's figure disappeared, Li Daolong rushed high into the sky from a mountain peak like a cannonball and disappeared in an instant.
