Despite the fact that Li Zhirui's strength was greatly suppressed, his appearance still brought immense pressure to everyone.

The cultivators from the Floating Light Realm all had serious expressions, and their internal magical power was running at its limit. Once the opponent made a move, they would immediately unleash the moves they had prepared to fight back.

"You're all being a bit too cautious. I'm not some monster." Li Zhirui chuckled lightly upon seeing this.

But instead of relaxing, everyone became even more tense. Although he was not a monster, he was even more terrifying!
After all, the former might only take the lives of some of them, while the latter would not only take the lives of all of them, but also occupy their territory.

"Your Excellency possesses an extraordinary bearing and an air of nobility and pride, clearly a righteous cultivator. Why would you commit such a despicable act?" a cultivator immediately questioned loudly.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhirui burst into laughter, only stopping after a long while with a mocking smile on his face. He said, "Don't you find yourselves laughing when you say those things?"

What is the true path or the false path in this world? It's just a difference in spiritual beliefs and racial perspectives.

Today, the immortal path has the upper hand and can call itself the righteous path; tomorrow, when it's the demonic path's turn, they can make the same claim.

Even demons, as long as they are powerful enough, can still claim to be on the righteous path.

The so-called distinction between good and evil is more determined by strength, and has little to do with actions, ideologies, or race.

When one's own strength is insufficient, using such empty titles that have no real use to make a fuss will only make people laugh.

It's useless except for that!
The cultivators' faces darkened, but they didn't know what to say. They probably hadn't expected that Li Zhirui didn't care about these things at all, and even scoffed at them.

"Do it!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhirui rushed out and entered the crowd like a wolf among sheep, instantly killing several unsuspecting cultivators.

Instantly, the morale of the Li family soared, and a group of clansmen came on strong, with all kinds of dazzling spiritual light crashing into the Floating Light Realm, killing countless people.

Although they were a beat slow to react, they were not intimidated by the situation. Instead, they quickly recovered and organized a counterattack.

The two sides were immediately plunged into a fierce battle, with people losing their lives at any moment.

However, the Li family currently holds the upper hand due to Li Zhirui and their initial advantage. But as the number of cultivators from the Floating Light Realm continues to increase, the situation is slowly turning around for them.

Li Zhirui was not surprised but pleased, after all, their goal was to tie down more of the enemy's manpower so that they would not know that something had happened in their rear and could rush back in time.

However, beneath his expressionless face, he felt a mix of anxiety and worry as he watched the casualties among his people increase.

Therefore, once Li Zhirui saw an opportunity, he ordered his people to temporarily retreat and form a defensive formation to resist the increasingly fierce attacks from the Floating Light Realm.

In fact, he had an even bigger plan in mind. After all, if it was just about restraining these cultivators, there was no need for him to personally oversee the situation; his family had plenty of people who could do the job.

"Hahahaha, you're nothing special! You dare to invade my Floating Light Realm with such strength? You're courting death." One of the cultivators couldn't help but laugh wildly, his expression extremely arrogant and smug.

Li Zhirui remained unmoved. The existence of such people was actually a good thing for them, as it could amplify their pride and arrogance, making the atmosphere more heated and weakening their judgment and perception.

"They're about to give up! Give them a good beating!" the cultivator shouted arrogantly, his expression fanatical, and charged out first.

Behind him, a group of cultivators followed closely, and judging from their posture, it seemed as if they could break through the Li family's position in the next instant.

To make them fall into an even deeper trap, Li Zhirui specifically instructed his clansmen not to fight back with all their might, but only to use half their strength to protect the defensive formation from being breached. They could also take this opportunity to consume pills and slowly recover their mana.

However, the Li family's deliberate show of weakness made them think that the Li family was really incapacitated, so they immediately intensified their offensive. Some of the overly fanatical cultivators even left only a thin layer of defense around themselves and used all their remaining magic power to attack!

Half an hour...

A quarter of an hour……

Half an hour...

……

The position, which looked like it was on the verge of being breached, miraculously held out for half an hour!

Looking at the state of both sides, although the Li family members were slightly tired, they were full of fighting spirit and energy; on the other hand, most of the Floating Light Realm cultivators who were attacking with fervor were exhausted and had little magic power left.

"Oh no! We've fallen into a trap! Junior Brother Bai and the others are in danger now!"

Even the most oblivious cultivators who remained behind noticed something was wrong and were greatly alarmed. They quickly gathered their men and went to provide support.

However, the Li family reacted even faster than them!

"Now, unleash your full power and leave these ignorant cultivators behind!" With Li Zhirui's command, thousands of different colored supernatural powers, spells, magical artifacts, and talismans poured out, forming a terrifying torrent that crashed down from mid-air!

It was as if an enormous, primordial serpent, with its gaping maw, lunged at them, trying to swallow them whole.

The cultivators of this realm, whose mana was depleted or even nearly depleted, turned deathly pale instantly. Many of them did not have enough mana to escape quickly and could only watch helplessly as the torrent rapidly approached them before everything went black and they lost all consciousness.

"No!"

The group of cultivators who were rushing to save their relatives, friends, disciples, and followers were ultimately too late and could only witness their imminent death!
They were so close that they could even see the many expressions on their faces as they died—terror, fear, regret, and so on—but in the end, only darkness remained.

In a single exchange, the Li family eliminated four to five thousand cultivators!

They had almost eliminated half of the local cultivators who had come to besiege them, greatly reducing the pressure the Li family would face next.

"Aaaaaah, you all deserve to die!"

"I'm going to kill you!"

Many cultivators were devastated by this sight and rushed towards the Li family without regard for their own lives. In their rage, they only wanted to avenge them!
But their actions are no different from suicide.

"do not want!"

"Come back quickly!"

Some of the more composed cultivators at the rear, seeing this, suddenly narrowed their eyes and shouted, trying to stop them from their impulsive and suicidal actions.

Unfortunately, these words did not calm them down, and at the same time, the Li family launched another attack.

To deal with the remaining cultivators from this realm, they only had a thousand people fighting, and only a couple hundred of them actually made a move, yet they easily killed them!

Under the immense power of the divine ability, they were instantly crushed into minced meat, with fine pieces of flesh and blood splattering everywhere, some even landing on their companions. In just a moment, many more casualties occurred.

The remaining cultivators were burning with rage, but none of them dared to step forward again.

At this point, how could they not see that this was a trap set by the Li family? They wanted to lure them in so as to relieve the pressure they were facing.

Despite their fury, the best way to deal with the Li family was to trap them here and prevent them from leaving!

Therefore, they could only suppress their anger and retreat to a safe distance, sending more people to patrol, determined not to give the Li family a chance to leave the area.

"Since they're not attacking, everyone should rest and recover. We still have a tough battle to fight!" Li Zhirui said relatively easily.

He estimated that the time was about right.

Therefore, he arranged for several clansmen who practiced eye techniques to keep a close watch on the camp not far away, and to notify him immediately if they spotted any spiritual light flying towards them.

Time flies, and half an hour has passed in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, a dazzling stream of light rushed from afar and landed in the hands of a cultivator.

But this is just the beginning!
In the next quarter of an hour, streaks of light flew in from the horizon and landed in the hands of different cultivators.

The content was all similar: their own clan's mountain gate/territory had been attacked by a mysterious force, and the other party was extremely fierce, launching an attack without saying a word. They were about to be overwhelmed and hoped that they could return to provide support as soon as possible.

"Damn it!"

"This is impossible! The surrounding area has been completely covered by a net, how did they leave?" Even after receiving the transmission talisman, he was still somewhat unwilling to believe it.

However, now was not the time to consider such things. They immediately approached their own cultivators, wanting to board the spirit ship and return as quickly as possible.

If they were in an open, deserted place, their actions would certainly have gone very smoothly. They would probably already be on a spirit ship, leaving quickly, and no one would have come to stop them.

But their timing is wrong! And their location is wrong too!

Upon discovering the approaching spiritual light, Li Zhirui immediately instructed all his clansmen to prepare their supernatural powers to stop the group of cultivators from returning to their clan's mountain stronghold.

If possible, it would be best to leave them all here; dying here would be the best outcome!

Powerful and sharp beams of spiritual light instantly pierced through the heavy spirit ships, damaging their internal structures and rendering them unable to start.

Wow!
Many items fell from the spirit ship, smashing to pieces on the ground and instantly turning to dust.

"Roar!"

As soon as Li Zhirui and the others made their move, they instantly attracted the firepower of the group of cultivators. One of them let out an angry roar like a wild beast.

The situation at the mountain gate where he was located was extremely critical. He had to lead his men back to provide support as soon as possible, otherwise, if the mountain gate were breached, there would definitely be huge casualties.

Many of his fellow disciples and fellow students have already died here. If the same thing happens again at the sect, he will probably be close to the extinction of his entire sect!

"Get out of my way! Anyone who blocks my way shall die!"

With a tremendous roar, he summoned another spirit ship, intending to fly away into the distance.

"You want to leave now?"

Li Zhirui suddenly appeared in front of them, a cold smile playing on his lips, and said, "You'd better stay here obediently!"

Rumble!
One after another, colossal pillars descended from the sky, slamming him and the spirit ship deep into the earth.

Besides, many other cultivators who thought of leaving also met the same fate.

The power of the celestial beings finally began to be revealed at this moment!
No longer do they deliberately suppress their own power to avoid arousing their suspicion, as they did before.

Even though he was suppressed by the Heavenly Dao of the Floating Light Realm, his killing moves and divine abilities were still beyond what these cultivators could withstand.

Li Zhirui's move seemed to be a signal, and all the members of the Li family took action to stop the group of cultivators from leaving.

However, in their eagerness to save lives, many people still managed to escape.

In fact, this was something he specifically instructed them to do. He would occasionally leave them a way out, so that they would see a glimmer of hope for escape and wouldn't really fight to the death.

This is actually the same principle as leaving one side open while surrounding three sides. It's all to prevent the opponent from going all out and fighting with their backs to the wall. Even if they manage to keep them all alive, the Li family will suffer many casualties due to their desperate struggle.

This is something Li Zhirui doesn't want to see. The lives of his own family members are far more precious than theirs!

After two attacks, their spirit ships were almost completely destroyed. Even if there were any left, they would likely be small spirit ships, unable to carry hundreds of people at high speed.

Under these circumstances, they were destined not to be able to get back in time.

Therefore, Li Zhirui did not press the matter further and led his clansmen back into the defensive formation, fearing that some cultivators might go insane and use themselves as bombs to try to take away a large number of Li family members, thinking that doing so would be revenge.

I thought this was just his overly cautious guess, but I never expected that there really was such a crazy cultivator who actually used himself as a human bomb!
Rumbling--

The massive explosion kicked up a thick cloud of smoke that blotted out the sky, and the defensive array shook, its spiritual light dimming slightly.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the large number of cultivators who had surrounded the Li family had all disappeared!

They all took advantage of the opportunity and fled the place as quickly as possible.

Some of the cultivators, whose mountain sects and clan territories were not attacked, but since everyone else had left, leaving only them, how could they possibly deal with the Li family? So they simply left as well.

As a result, the cultivators who were besieging the Li family vanished without a trace in an instant.

"I never expected that such a cultivator would exist..."

Although his death did not cause any loss to the Li family, it provided a vivid lesson for the clansmen.

……

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Let's turn our attention back to the early morning before the great battle began.
