Chapter 1022: Chapter 980: Unwillingness
The Individual Immortals and Human Immortals of the Sea Clan, despite their complaints about that senior’s decision to undertake a breakthrough and Tribulation Transcendence at such a critical moment, the majority of Water Devils could understand.
After all, sometimes enlightenment surges and the threshold is suddenly breached!
Could he really be expected to forcefully suppress it?
If he missed this chance, it might never arise again, how could that Earth Immortal Realm Water Devil give up?
Not to mention he had been in seclusion for many years, completely unaware of the battle raging between the Sea Clan and the Cultivators outside, even if he did know, he wouldn’t forgo the chance to ascend to a Heavenly Immortal for the sake of the Sea Clan!
It should be noted, in a sense, becoming a Heavenly Immortal is like reaching the endpoint of The Great Tao!
With a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, they are the supreme beings who truly watch the seas turn into mulberry fields and oversee the world’s changing winds and clouds!
But now is not the time to discuss such matters, the gathered Individual Immortals and Human Immortals of the Sea Clan immediately dispatched half their forces to protect the laws, while the rest exerted their full strength to obstruct the Cultivators, preventing them from breaking the defense line and getting close to the Tribulation Transcendence range. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝔠𝔬𝖒
How could the Cultivators miss this key opportunity that could decide the outcome of the battle? Seeing the Sea Clan’s actions, a group of Immortal Realm Cultivators quickly discussed and devised a plan.
That is to pretend to want to disrupt the Thunder Tribulation, but actually take advantage of the significant reduction in the Sea Clan’s Immortal Realm numbers, and before the Thunder Tribulation ends, inflict enough injuries on as many Immortal Realm Sea Clan as possible to weaken their combat power!
In doing so, even if the Thunder Tribulation ends and the Sea Clan protectors rush back, they will be unable to change the outcome of the battle.
If possible, they naturally also hoped to kill some members of the Sea Clan, but they were well aware that this would be difficult, and if they pursued this purpose blindly, it could likely allow the Sea Clan to weather this crisis and fall back into a stalemate.
Of course, if the opportunity presented itself, they wouldn’t miss it.
Among the Cultivators at the forefront were Jiu Xiao, Jian Tongzi, and other Human Immortals with astonishing combat strength, giving the impression that they were trying to break through the defense line to prevent the birth of a new Celestial Immortal of great ability in the Sea Clan.
Seeing this, the Sea Clan’s expressions changed drastically, and they quickly deployed their mystic powers to stop them. In an instant, various Laws and Divine Powers were flashing in the sky, with ice, huge waves, and gales blowing fiercely.
Jiu Xiao and the other Human Immortals were fearless, laughing while deploying their own abilities, with towering Dharma figures appearing behind them, quickly shattering these attacks.
These powerful Cultivators exerted tremendous pressure on the Sea Clan.
The Cultivators in the rear took the opportunity, forming groups of two or three to surround and separate the members of the Sea Clan, preventing them from uniting.
"Damn it! We’ve fallen for it!"
"Cursed!"
The Immortal Realm Sea Clan had ugly expressions; they were all old creatures that had lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years. How could they not understand the Cultivators’ ploy by looking at the situation?
Pretending to disrupt the Tribulation Transcendence was a feint; they wanted to seize the opportunity when their strength was greatly reduced to decide the outcome of the battlefield!
And yet, in their concern and chaos, worried about the Cultivators disrupting the Tribulation Transcendence, they hastily diverted half their forces and were caught off guard by the Cultivators.
Moreover, when the Cultivators made their move, they summoned a haze that obscured visibility, enveloping the battlefield and preventing the Sea Clan protectors thousands of miles away from seeing the true situation here, completely unaware of the reality on the ground.
"Hold on! As long as that Elder Ancestor finishes the Tribulation Transcendence and Ao Ming and the others rush back, the Cultivators won’t be able to do anything to us!" a Human Immortal of the Sea Clan shouted loudly.
But what it didn’t know was that the thick fog also had the effect of silencing voices, so its encouraging words didn’t spread at all.
And the Sea Clan surrounded by two to three Cultivators were mostly in a terrible state.
Although the great battle had only erupted a short while ago, the Cultivators were determined to fight desperately, resolved to injure as many Sea Clan as possible and weaken their strength before the Thunder Tribulation ended.
So, each one spared no effort and attacked the Sea Clan with all their might.
Faced with such fierce attacks from the Cultivators, the Sea Clan was being beaten back severely, especially those that were being attacked by Jiu Xiao, Jian Tongzi, and the others, as they were already wounded!
Moreover, the Cultivators had discussed it in advance, so as soon as a member of the Sea Clan was seriously injured and couldn’t recover in a short time, reducing their power, they would immediately aid other Cultivators, leaving only one person to restrain the Sea Clan.
Under the relentless attacks and cooperation of various Immortals, in the span of two hours, more than thirty Immortal Realm members of the Sea Clan were seriously injured and wouldn’t be able to fully recover for several years!
Because among the Cultivators was a Human Immortal mastered in the Laws of poison, who distributed a potent poison to everyone that could enter the body through the wounds and cause tremendous damage to the meridians in a short time!
And when those Sea Clan protectors rushed back to the battlefield in a hurry, the Sea Clan left behind to defend were nearly all injured! Many of them were seriously hurt and their strength greatly diminished.
You should know, the Sea Clan had been protecting the laws at the edge of the Thunder Tribulation for over an hour, seeing that not a single Cultivator broke through the encirclement, they began to have doubts.
"Damn it!"
"You scoundrels! How dare you scheme against us like this!"
The returning Immortal Realm Sea Clan were incredibly enraged, their eyes bloodshot, wishing they could tear the Cultivators before them limb from limb!
"HAHAHAHA..."
Seeing them so angry, the group of Immortals was quite pleased, and a portion of the Cultivators even burst into laughter.
"The end is decided, gentlemen, are you still not willing to retreat?"
At the beginning of the great battle, because the Cave Abyss Sect and the five major Immortal Sects acted unexpectedly and beyond the Sea Clan’s anticipation, the Immortal Realm that rushed over was only a few more than the Cultivators, so they were unable to contend with the Cultivators.
