Chapter 1136 Misunderstanding
"Brother Jiu, aren't we going to do it yet?"
Mu Yuan looked at more and more cultivators who were exhausted and their power against the water monsters was getting weaker and weaker, and asked with some concern.
The Li family has developed very rapidly in the past hundred years, but so have other forces!
Especially the already powerful forces like the sea clan. Although they suffered heavy losses in the past few hundred years, it is impossible for high-level water monsters to recover so quickly, but most of the beasts in the tide are cannon fodder.
In terms of producing cannon fodder, the sea clan and the monster clan are definitely the best.
Thousands or tens of thousands of low-level water monsters, as long as they drag a high-level cultivator to death, it will be a profit for the sea clan!
Those scattered immortal water monsters who have been hiding in the seabed and dare not show up until now think so.
As long as they don't die, it doesn't matter if the millions of cannon fodder they brought out all die in front of these two immortal cities.
This is something that Li Zhirui and Jiang Fengwu had never expected before. They didn't expect these water monsters to be so timid that they didn't even dare to show up.
What they didn't know was that among the scattered immortal water monsters who came to attack Shanhaizhou this time, there was Mo Qiu who had escaped from their hands.
Even after a hundred or two hundred years, it still feared the Li family.
It was under its persuasion that the other water monsters decided not to take action and leave the battlefield to those cannon fodder.
If they won, they would also benefit the most. If they lost, it had nothing to do with them.
After all, every time the sea clan launched a beast tide, not all realms could defeat the cultivators. On the contrary, this was an extremely rare result.
Mo Qiu didn't even show his face. Li Zhirui and the others certainly didn't know that he was in the beast tide this time. They thought that those scattered immortal water monsters had some kind of calculation, so they acted so cautiously.
"Amu, Fengwu, the two of you take action to relieve the pressure on the two cities, and I will keep an eye on the sea clan to see what conspiracy they have."
After hearing Mu Yuan's words, Li Zhirui finally decided to take action, because if he waited any longer, the two immortal cities would really be at risk of being breached!
This time the beast tide came too suddenly, and the Li family was not as well prepared as last time. The controlled Sanxian water monster died in the battle of Wanjiazhou, and there was no insider to pass the news.
Moreover, the Sanxian water monster did not take action, so it could not be defeated or killed, and the morale of the water monster could not be broken, so the beast tide fell into chaos without control. It was completely a battle of exchange!
Faced with such a fighting method, the Li family, which had fewer people and cherished their clansmen, was the party that suffered losses after all, and could not fight the sea clan at all.
The continuous, day and night battles exhausted all the cultivators in the fairy city. They were now relying on the breath in their hearts to hold on.
Jiang Fengwu and Mu Yuan's strong moves greatly relieved their pressure and allowed them to have a moment of respite.
The narrow canyon was filled with the bodies of water monsters, and the river rushing into the sea was also blocked by countless corpses. The clear river water turned red and black. Even if the five senses were blocked, it seemed that the stench that permeated the world could be smelled.
This is no longer a battlefield, but purgatory!
Li Zhirui looked at the scene in front of him without any fluctuations. In his thousands of years of life, he had seen countless tragic scenes, so how could he be moved by this?
He was just wondering what the water monsters that had not yet appeared were planning!
This determined his next move.
Not long after, a breeze stopped in front of Li Zhirui, and Feng Buxi's figure emerged from it.
There was no Fengxi clan in this battle, because when the beast tide broke out, they were busy protecting the fifth scattered immortal in the clan, and there were some unusual movements in the Changli Mountains in the north. According to the instructions of the Li family, they dispatched some clansmen to investigate the cause.
Now that Feng Buxi has come here, I think he has the answer.
"Fellow Daoist Li, there is suddenly a scattered immortal monster in the Changli Mountains. It intends to go west with a large number of monsters, and it seems to be planning to join the monster tribe of Qianguzhou."
"Hmm?"
Li Zhirui was a little surprised by this answer. At first, he thought that the sea tribe and the monster tribe had contacted each other privately and wanted to start an incident at the same time, so he asked Feng Buxi to keep an eye on the monster tribe in the Changli Mountains, but he really didn't expect that it was a scattered immortal who took a large number of monsters away.
Especially at this point in time.
Most of the Li family's strength is fighting against the sea tribe beast tide. If the monster tribe is in chaos and invades the mountain, it will be much easier, and it is even possible to break through the defense line!
But the monster tribe did something contrary to the general trend and gave up the benefits that could be easily obtained.
"Could it be that the monster tribe in Qianguzhou encountered something?"
This is the only reason Li Zhirui could think of, so he dragged a large number of monsters westward and rushed to Qianguzhou.
But the next moment, he directly put the matter behind him.
Now that the sea beast tide is at hand, this is the most important thing that must be resolved as soon as possible. No matter what happens in Qianguzhou, which is 100,000 miles away from the family, it will not affect the Li family. There is no need and should not spend too much time on it.
"Feng Daoyou, please use your magical power to find out what conspiracy those scattered immortal water monsters are preparing." Li Zhirui said directly.
"Okay."
Feng Buxi did not say any nonsense and immediately used his magical power.
About half a day later, he heard the conversation coming from the bottom of the sea.
If this is not the innate magical power of the Fengxi clan, the consumption is very small, and it is impossible to keep the magical power running all the time.
"Mo Qiu, you said that the strength of the scattered immortals in this family is terrifying, but now it seems that you are cowardly and afraid of death. The strength of the two scattered immortals is not as strong as you said!" A rough voice said with disdain.
"That's right, if you hadn't kept persuading us and exaggerating the strength of the Li family, if we had taken action early, we might have already broken through the two immortal cities and marched straight into Shanhaizhou!" Another voice was also full of complaints.
"In my opinion, Mo Qiu is either afraid of death or bribed by the Li family, so he wove such a lie to prevent us from taking action."
"In my opinion, the latter is more likely!"
The third and fourth voices also expressed dissatisfaction and even began to attack Mo Qiu.
"You! How can you doubt my loyalty?! How much I have paid for the sea clan over the years, don't you know?" Mo Qiu looked at the four fellows in front of him in disbelief, his heart full of sadness.
"Who knows if you are pretending?"
"I think it was during that battle of restoration that you were the only one who escaped unscathed. You survived because you joined the Li family and even betrayed the other four members of the same clan?"
Poof——
Hearing such slanderous and attacking words, Mo Qiu felt as if he was hit by a heavy hammer. His head was dizzy, and he couldn't help spitting out blood. His face was terribly pale.
These words were a great humiliation and hurt to the loyal one, especially since they came from the mouth of a member of the same clan that he trusted very much. It was like two sharp blades piercing his chest.
In fact, the other four water monsters said such hurtful words because the difference between what Mo Qiu exaggerated and what they saw with their own eyes was too big!
It was so big that they felt that if they had not listened to Mo Qiu's instigation at the beginning, they would have definitely taken over the two immortal cities, and then plundered Shanhaizhou and obtained a lot of resources. When they returned to the East China Sea, the tribe would have a generous reward. As a result, they had wasted so much time in vain.
Cutting off someone's wealth is like killing their parents!
This is how they feel now, so they are so angry.
"After consuming the mana of those two people, it will be our turn to take action!"
"Then take them down in one fell swoop!"
...
Feng Buxi quickly repeated the conversation he heard as soon as possible.
After listening, Li Zhirui couldn't help but fall into silence.
They had previously suspected whether the sea tribe had any conspiracy, but now they told him that they were just overthinking!
Even with Li Zhirui's Tao heart, he felt a moment of trance.
And the one who caused all this was Mo Qiu who escaped at the beginning.
"Sometimes thinking too much and being too cautious are not good things!" Li Zhirui said to himself with a bitter smile.
If they had been more decisive, they would have been able to alleviate many people's injuries and even save the lives of many cultivators.
But Li Zhirui also knew that it would be difficult for him to change this, because he had lived his whole life like this. Even if he was shocked, he could not change immediately. At most, he would not think too much and be more decisive.
"Mo Qiu was hurt by their words, and his spirit was lost by more than half. He probably would not take action in the next battle. Then there would only be four scattered immortal water monsters."
As he said this, Li Zhirui looked at Feng Buxi and said, "Next, I will trouble you to restrain a water monster."
As for the remaining three monsters, Li Zhirui planned to deal with them alone. He had the confidence and strength to do so.
However, when he told Jiang Fengwu and Mu Yuan about his plan, the former proposed another method with better effect and efficiency.
Li Zhirui readily accepted it.
...
Swoosh--
Jiang Fengwu and Mu Yuan, who were slaughtering the beast tide, had been reminded by Li Zhirui early in the morning, so they were already on guard. When they heard the wind coming from behind, they immediately fought back.
Bang!
A crashing sound exploded, and the sneak attack of the water monsters was blocked by the two.
"It seems that you are not so useless." The leading water monster was named Lan Ju, who said with some surprise, and attacked the two again.
Unfortunately, facing the Li family who had been prepared and even set traps for them, this beast tide was destined to end in vain.
"Not good!"
When the four water monsters stepped into the formation, their lives and deaths were no longer decided by them, but by Jiang Fengwu, who they looked down upon!
Rumble---
When they didn't know, Jiang Fengwu had secretly arranged this place, just waiting for this water monster to take the initiative to come to the door and fall into the trap.
Looking at the formation patterns on all sides, Lan Ju's heart suddenly jumped. In this situation, they had no hope of winning the battle.
At this time, it recalled Mo Qiu's words, and couldn't help but feel a little regret in its heart.
"Break the formation and leave here, or you will all die!" Lan Ju saw the other three members of the same clan panicking and losing their composure, so he stood up and shouted loudly.
In this situation, if they can unite, they may still have hope of survival, but if they are scattered, they will be defeated one by one and die here!
Unfortunately, thick clouds and fog suddenly appeared in the formation, separating the four water monsters and preventing them from contacting and uniting with each other.
Seeing this, Li Zhirui escaped into the formation and began his slaughter.
In the scattered immortal realm, in a one-on-one battle, he had almost no chance of failure. The improvement of strength in the small world was extremely huge!
Jiang Fengwu was responsible for presiding over the formation, not only the formation that trapped the four water monsters, but also the formation of the two immortal cities, which was equivalent to doing three things at once!
If it weren't for her outstanding talent in formation, and the formations were all arranged by Jiang Fengwu himself, it would be difficult to do this.
As for Mu Yuan and Feng Buxi, they were helping the cultivators in the immortal city to fight against the beast tide.
Their task was the most boring, but the most important!
These two immortal cities must not be breached, otherwise the entire Shanhaizhou would be dragged into the water. By then, countless water monsters would be scattered all over the huge territory. I don't know how much the Li family would have to pay to wipe them all out.
And in this process, the water monsters' damage to Shanhaizhou was absolutely huge.
Swish——
A sudden attack appeared behind a certain scattered immortal water monster. If it hadn't had some strength, this sneak attack would have been enough to seriously injure it and make it unable to fight again!
"Hmph! Coward, you only know how to sneak attack from the dark. If you have the guts, come out and fight me openly. I don't care whether you live or die!"
"Really? Then it's as you wish."
Li Zhirui chuckled and landed in front of the water monster.
It has been many years since he heard anyone dare to tell him to fight openly. He hoped that this scattered fairy water monster in front of him could bring him a little surprise.
Li Zhirui stretched out his hand and pressed it. The infinite water flow gathered in his palm. He pushed it forward casually and turned it into a huge wave, rumbling and rushing, trying to swallow the water monster in front of him.
Poof——
It tried its best, but it couldn't disperse the huge wave. It just weakened its power a little, and then barely withstood the attack with magical powers and magic weapons.
But even so, it was still injured.
"Your strength doesn't match your words."
Li Zhirui shook his head and sighed, "How disappointing!"
After that, he stopped holding back, and a more terrifying wave formed instantly, swallowing it without any hindrance, leaving only a complete corpse.
There are so many spiritual objects on the water monster in the scattered fairyland, these are all excellent spiritual materials used to refine magic weapons, and Li Zhirui will naturally not smash these things.
From this point, it can be seen that Li Zhirui's control of his own power has reached a very high level, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is perfect.
Of the remaining three water monsters, only Lan Ju's strength is slightly stronger, which made him spend a little more effort, and the other two were killed without any twists and turns. (End of this chapter)
