Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

"The sixth level trial begins immediately!"

A cold mechanical voice sounded in Li Zhirui's ear and continued, "The trial task for this level is: kill three Human Immortal Realm demon cultivators or thirty Individual Immortal Realm demon cultivators!"

"The content of this trial is a time-limited task, and if you can exceed the required kills by three times within the stipulated time, you can skip the seventh level trial and directly enter the eighth level labyrinth!"

Li Zhirui wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but it seemed like he heard a trace of disdain and anger in that voice.

Moreover, the place he was now in was not inside the labyrinth but had been teleported to the ruins!

This meant that what Li Zhirui would face next were no longer puppets and projections, but actual living demon cultivators.

But, when did these demon cultivators even enter?

And also, could it be that there was an artifact spirit deep within the ruins?

Otherwise, why would it be so lively? Once the demon cultivators entered, the trial content was immediately changed.

And what did they do to make this seemingly artifact spirit so angry, turning them into key roles in the trial task?

Thankfully, the fifth level trial was just an illusionary realm; it looked complicated, but the mana and Spiritual Soul's consumption for Li Zhirui wasn't much.

If it were like the trials of the first two levels, the first thing he would need to do now would be to quickly find a place to restore his mana before proceeding with the task.

Thoughts swirled in his mind but only for an instant.

Li Zhirui quickly collected his scattered thoughts and began searching for traces of the demon cultivators.

Whether his luck was good or simply many demon cultivators had entered the ruins, he shortly encountered a Human Immortal demon cultivator, who was toying with—or more accurately, tormenting—a group of Individual Immortal cultivators.

"Huh? Another one coming to die?" The demon cultivator turned around upon hearing movement and saw that the newcomer was a Human Immortal cultivator.

However, his cultivation was one small realm lower; although his expression became slightly sterner, he still didn't take Li Zhirui seriously.

He merely attacked first, hoping to gain the upper hand and quickly subdue Li Zhirui.

A cluster of searing black fireballs quickly shot forth, burning and melting everything they touched in an instant, looking extremely formidable.

"Aren't you underestimating me too much?"

But Li Zhirui's lips curled into a disdainful smile, and with a wave of his hand, layers of gigantic waves appeared out of thin air, pouring down, extinguishing all the fireballs, and continuing their momentum toward the demon cultivator.

"Not good!"

Upon the first exchange, the demon cultivator realized he had made a massive mistake; his opponent was even stronger than his cultivation implied, and he had been careless!

The result was that his initial advantage was thwarted by Li Zhirui, and Li Zhirui's continuous offensive forced the demon cultivator into a quagmire, leaving him in a precarious situation.

The trouble was that, at some unknown point, a giant wooden cage had enveloped the demon cultivator. He tried to break free, but the vines were much tougher than he had imagined.

Moreover, they layered upon each other; he could break through two or three layers at once, but before he could destroy the subsequent vines, the damaged areas had almost fully regenerated.

The speed was astonishing!

Such a situation made the demon cultivator sense danger; if he didn't escape quickly, as his mana continued to deplete and his wounds worsened, he really might lose his life here!

"Let me leave, or I'll devour these people immediately to recover my mana and heal my wounds!" The demon cultivator grabbed several severely injured cultivators to threaten Li Zhirui.

He actually knew clearly that this threat didn't hold much weight; after all, anyone could see that they had no acquaintance with each other.

But he had no choice; for a sliver of a chance to escape, he couldn't give up.

"Senior, please, save me!"

"I don't want to die!"

"Senior, my family's patriarch is an Earth Immortal. If you save me, my patriarch will certainly reward you!"

...

Those cultivators hurriedly shouted, hoping that Li Zhirui would agree to the demon cultivator's demands and save them.

But after hearing this, Li Zhirui couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'm not acquainted with these people, have no ties with them. Using them to threaten me? Do you think of me as too kind?"

For a being to reach this realm and cultivation, there were almost none who were soft-hearted. Whose hands were not stained with lives? Even more so for a few strangers, there was nothing to be concerned about.

"Fine! Blame him for letting you die rather than rescuing you."

The demon cultivator grabbed up several people and opened his mouth wide, swallowing them all down.

Who wouldn't find such a statement amusing to hear?

A demon cultivator actually blaming a cultivator for letting others die rather than rescuing them.

At that moment, he suddenly noticed a sly smile on Li Zhirui's lips, and his heart skipped a beat. Had he fallen into a trap somewhere?

"Explode!"

Hearing this softly spoken, yet earth-shaking word drop into the demon cultivator's ears, his face changed drastically, and he tried to regurgitate the cultivators he had swallowed.

But, it was too late!

Boom——

A thunderous explosion resounded within the wooden cage. Once the smoke dispersed, the demon cultivator was nowhere to be seen, leaving behind only some shattered flesh, white bone, and tattered cloth.

Indeed, when Li Zhirui set up the wooden cage, he had already sent the cultivators out, merely taking some of their blood and hair as mediums to perform a Secret Technique, disguising several explosive spiritual fruits.
