Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

Chapter 1599 Grass Cocoon

"So arrogant? Who do you think you are!"

Upon hearing this, the monk immediately rebuked him, his disdain evident in his words.

"I haven't seen such an arrogant and conceited cultivator in many years." Li Zhirui looked at him as if he were looking at an insect that didn't know its own limitations.

His companions seemed to realize something was wrong and quickly tugged at him, saying, "Let's just forget about it and not cause any more trouble."

"No, I must kill this ignorant fool today to vent my anger." But to my surprise, he still refused to give up.

"Stubborn and obstinate".

Li Zhirui shook his head slightly; he didn't have that much time to play around with them here.

A sliver of light flickered in mid-air and, before anyone could react, disappeared into the person's body.

"Ha! Playing tricks!"

But in the next instant, a gentle breeze blew by, and he, like rotten wood that had completely decayed, turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace.

"what!"

Upon witnessing this extremely terrifying and horrifying scene, the other cultivators couldn't help but scream, staring at Li Zhirui with utter fear, their bodies instinctively retreating.

"What...what kind of method is this?!"

They desperately wanted to run away, but were afraid that doing so would anger the other party, and for a moment they didn't know what to do.

But Li Zhirui didn't even look at them and left directly.

The cultivators only breathed a sigh of relief long after he had left.

Even so, they dared not discuss this senior whose actual strength was completely unknown.

……

Meanwhile, Li Zhirui had successfully found a second place with a strong aura of yin and evil.

Following the previous method, the purifying power was applied to this place. As the purifying white lotuses grew, it quickly returned to its state before the great calamity.

Almost instantly, he sensed that the karma on his body had decreased by one or two tenths.

"Only about half of the cause and effect remain." Thinking of this, Li Zhirui couldn't help but smile.

A cultivator like him, who prefers seclusion and ascetic practice, naturally dislikes a life of constant travel.

Especially now that a major calamity has broken out, it is easy to encounter some unnecessary troubles when traveling!
For example, the low-level cultivator he encountered before who was oblivious to his own mortality.

For example, the situation Li Zhirui is currently facing.

The two forces suddenly broke out into a battle when he was passing through a certain place, dragging him, an uninvolved passerby, into the great battle!
At his speed, he could pass through an unimportant place in less than a breath, barely even getting a clear look. But by sheer coincidence, a great battle erupted the moment he passed by.

Faced with the overwhelming torrents of magic from both sides, even a Xuanxian like Li Zhirui had to avoid their sharp edge and dared not force his way in.

"Damn it!" He couldn't help but curse under his breath, and immediately tried to leave the battlefield as quickly as possible.

But I don't know which madman specifically targeted him with an attack!
Moreover, the power of the supernatural ability was quite strong, and it must have been the work of a certain immortal. He had to use his natal magic weapon to defend himself, but this slowed him down considerably.

Several subsequent attacks forced Li Zhirui to stop.

However, his current position is very bad, right in the middle of the battle between the two sides, which has led the cultivators on both sides to mistakenly believe that he is a powerful support sent by the other side.

As a result, more and more attacks came at him.

While it didn't leave him in a sorry state, it prevented him from continuing on his way!
Li Zhirui certainly had a way to escape. He vanished into the space in less than an instant, and no one could stop him unless the other party was strong enough to control him.

Perhaps only in this way can his actions be restricted.

But he didn't want to reveal himself easily, lest someone notice something amiss.

Alternatively, he could risk rushing out, but doing so might result in injury.

This is something Li Zhirui is unwilling to accept.

So now he can only deal with their attacks while retreating to a distance, intending to leave the battlefield as soon as possible.

By then, he would be out of trouble and wouldn't have to worry about getting hurt again.

His actions seemed somewhat reluctant and too yielding, but there was no other way, because Li Zhirui could not massacre low-level cultivators, as this would not only bring no benefit to himself, but would also bring more consequences.

Moreover, the cultivators who attacked him were also behind the battle formation. If he wanted to defeat them, he would have to cross the battle formation, and during that time, he would also have to face wave after wave of attacks. So it would be better to just withdraw and leave.

"Senior brother, that person doesn't seem to be reinforcements sent by the other side." A celestial being seemed to have noticed something and whispered a reminder.

"It's not just you and me, I'm sure Uncle Yuanrun and the other fellow disciples have also noticed it."

The other person nodded and replied, "But it doesn't matter. If we can kill an extra Xuanxian cultivator, we can settle most of our karma in an instant. Perhaps after this battle, not only will our karma be completely resolved, but we can also gain a lot of merit."

The man who had spoken earlier suddenly brightened up. Yes! Even if so many people joined forces, as long as they killed him, the merits distributed among each person would not be less.

It's even possible that after this battle, one can use this merit to further improve their cultivation.

Meanwhile, the cultivators on the other side also realized they had made a mistake, but they made the same choice: they did not stop attacking, and their offensive became even more intense.

In an instant, both sides tacitly agreed to kill the Xuanxian cultivator who had mistakenly entered the battlefield!

It was both to eliminate this unexpected factor and to greedily seek the merit of killing him.

As a result, Li Zhirui discovered that the attack power of these cultivators had suddenly become much stronger.

'Are they planning to kill me?'

Such a thought involuntarily surfaced in his mind, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes. Did they really think he wasn't afraid of them because he didn't make a move?!
Since that's the case, then don't blame him for being ruthless; after all, they forced him to do it.

"It seems that sometimes giving in all the time is not a good thing; it will only make people think you are weak and easy to bully!"

Li Zhirui stopped retreating and instead hovered in mid-air, coldly watching the low-level cultivators below who were fighting desperately.

He won't lay a hand on them and cause trouble for himself, but he has countless ways to hinder this great war!

By unleashing his natal magic weapon to ensure he wouldn't be harmed for a short time, he could concentrate on dealing with the cultivators below.

"You want to resolve your karma through a great battle, is that it?" As he spoke, his hands quickly formed hand seals, and specks of spiritual light gathered around Li Zhirui, looking like a giant green sun!

The dazzling light made many cultivators' eyes uncomfortable, and they subconsciously closed their eyes. Only a small number of cultivators were unaffected.

Then they saw the sun cascading down from the sky like a waterfall, spreading rapidly in all directions like a river.

The grass, which was originally only an inch or two tall, suddenly grew wildly in an instant, for some unknown reason!

In the blink of an eye, it grew to a terrifying height of ten feet!
As for the original bushes and trees, they were even more exaggerated, growing to a height of nearly ten zhang (approximately 33 meters).

And this is just the beginning; the growth of all the plants and trees is not yet over!
At this moment, Li Zhirui changed his hand seals, and the plants that had generally grown to be over ten feet tall seemed to come alive.

It quickly climbed onto the nearby cultivators, wrapping them up one by one like insect cocoons, and then lay them on the ground one after another.

No matter how much the cultivators trapped inside struggled, they were ultimately unable to break free of the cocoon woven from plants!
Only a small number of high-level cultivators who were far from the battlefield survived.

The once fierce battlefield instantly became incredibly quiet. If it weren't for the blood, flesh, and bones faintly visible on the ground, no one would have thought that this was a battlefield where fierce fighting and killing were taking place.

"What did you do?!"

This scene made the other immortals completely lose their composure. Fearing that their own disciples would suffer as a result, they abandoned their attacks on Li Zhirui and hurriedly flew to a cocoon of grass, intending to tear it apart.

With a tearing sound, the grass cocoon seemed to be broken very easily.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief and let the disciple inside out, the next instant, a flash of spiritual light appeared on the surface of the cocoon, and it closed up again!
This scene made the immortal's face stiffen. The closing speed was too fast, and the disciple imprisoned inside was firmly bound by the grass and trees, unable to break free in a short time.

"Thank you all for your generous gifts in the past. This is just a small token of my gratitude, and I hope you all like it." The words were very pleasant, but Li Zhirui's tone was icy cold.

You deserve to die!

Upon hearing this, several immortals flew into a rage and tried to attack him, but they missed.

All of Li Zhirui did was to resolve his previous predicament. After he imprisoned all the low-level cultivators, causing the great battle to come to an abrupt end, the cultivators who attacked him no longer cared about him.

Faced with the golden opportunity he had been longing for—the chance to escape—how could he possibly miss it?

So after saying that, he was prepared to leave as quickly as possible.

He had already left during the brief moment when the attacks from those Celestial Immortals and Mystic Immortals landed!
"I hope you all like the wonderful gift I've prepared for you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another emerald green sun appeared, then crashed directly to the ground.

With a loud boom, a terrifying green torrent rapidly spread in all directions, not only further strengthening the grass cocoons, but also making the vitality of this area incredibly rich!
"Ha ha ha ha……"

After a hearty laugh, Li Zhirui left with a flourish.

"Bastard!"

A Xuanxian watched his gradually disappearing figure, wishing he could rush up and fight him, but the countless cocoons in front of him struggled wildly, and the disciples inside kept calling for help, so he could only stop and work with other high-level cultivators to find a way to solve this problem.

"Damn it! What methods did that person use to make this so difficult to deal with!"

No matter how they try, they can only stretch the cocoon open for a short time. If it takes a little longer, it will be stretched open!

In the end, they were still unable to completely get rid of these grass cocoons.

Left with no other choice, the high-level cultivators from both sides, who should have been fighting each other, began to gather together to discuss how to resolve this huge problem.

"Everyone, now is not the time to be so concerned about what we have. If this goes on for too long, who knows what will become of the disciples trapped inside?" a certain Xuanxian said somewhat impatiently.

A major war is now completely out of the question.

The most urgent task at present is to rescue the disciples.

"Everyone knows this, but there's just no good solution!"

Not just him, but which of the other high-level cultivators isn't anxious right now?
It should be noted that these disciples account for more than 60% of the total number of their respective factions.

If they died in the great battle, at least they would have died a worthy death. But if they were trapped and died in the grass cocoons, it would be too unworthy.

"The reason why the grass cocoons were able to recover so quickly is entirely due to the abundant life force in this area. If we move the grass cocoons out..."

A celestial cultivator had a sudden inspiration and said excitedly, "Or perhaps we could isolate the cocoon from the life force, or find a way to completely deplete the life force in this place? Wouldn't that make things simpler?"

They had only thought about starting with the grass cocoons, but overlooked the abundant vitality that was everywhere.

And that's the most crucial thing!
A word to wake up the dreamer!

Upon hearing this, all the cultivators instantly realized what was happening and hurriedly changed their thinking, considering how to deal with this abundant vitality.

The simplest and most brutal method is to counteract the life force with the evil energy of death, bloodshed, and killing.

However, as orthodox immortal cultivators, they could not find a large amount of evil energy in a short time and had to find another way.

After some attempts, they finally found another way.

Have a few cultivators with wood spirit roots gather these life energies. Whether they are temporarily preserved or thrown far away doesn't matter, as long as the immediate problem is solved.

Unfortunately, none of these people specialized in wood-based martial arts, so they were quite unfamiliar with the techniques at the beginning.

Unfortunately, in the eyes of the world, the power of wood-elemental spells and supernatural abilities is generally weaker compared to other spells and supernatural abilities.

Under the influence of this inherent label, unless one has a great advantage in wood elemental root, they will almost never choose to cultivate wood-based techniques.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken so long.

However, this experience greatly changed their negative impression of wood-based magic.

About half an hour later, all signs of life were completely eliminated.

Without the replenishment of life, those grass cocoons were utterly worthless. They didn't even need the help of the cultivators outside; they could easily break free of their restraints and emerge from within.

"Ugh!"

One of the celestial beings sighed silently. If they hadn't been so arrogant and conceited, and hadn't continued to attack the other party despite knowing that he was just a passing Xuanxian powerhouse, acting as if they wanted to kill him, the other party wouldn't have retaliated against them like this.

Now, a meticulously planned battle, which was supposed to resolve a great deal of karmic debt for their own side, has ended in a dismal failure. (End of Chapter)
