Chapter 177: The Gamble Did Not Pay Off
With the Li family's renewed actions, their locations were now widely known!
Disciples from all the factions in the Azure Cloud region, with lineages exceeding one hundred thousand years, reported to their leaders.
"The Holy Maiden of Herbs from the Li family, wielding a Seventh-Grade Demonic Tree, is wreaking havoc on the Seastone Island! Seastone Island has requested assistance."
"A message from the Azure Cloud Pavilion: the Lord of Dawn, despite being a mortal, possesses the power of literary cultivation. She is currently attempting a breakthrough, triggering a heavenly tribulation and suppressing the Azure Cloud Pavilion."
"Crystal Lotus Pavilion, is besieged by the demonic women of the Li family. We implore the Palace Lord to issue an order to encircle and suppress these Li family scourges!"
"..."
The Li family members had only just begun to gather towards Medicine King Valley, yet the Azure Cloud region was like a powder keg, ignited by the Li family's swift and decisive acts of destruction.
Without exception, all the major forces in the Azure Cloud region dispatched their members to encircle and suppress the Li family.
Even... Nascent Soul cultivators!
These old monsters, with lifespans reaching two thousand years, emerged from their secluded cultivation, one by one. Their Nascent Souls left their bodies, soaring through the heavens and earth.
...
In the room, Li Wei was still clicking on the screen. With each click, the natural treasures and pills displayed in his home would gradually vanish!
This was a function he had from the start of the game. He could quickly absorb the medicinal power through the game interface.
However, during his previous False Core Formation stage, a small amount of natural treasures and pills wouldn't have caught his attention.
But now, Both he and Li Yaowen knew that this operation by the Li family would also be met with encirclement and suppression from various forces.
Their Li family would face pressure from the entire Azure Cloud region.
Even Nascent Soul cultivators!
[You are absorbing the medicinal power of the Beast Blood Fruit, gaining 100 spiritual power points, and consuming 100 incense merit points!]
He felt the power surging through his body.
At the same time, he also took the opportunity to bestow his "gift" upon Li Yaotie, who was closest to Medicine King Valley.
[Your gift has been detected: a jade slip containing the Earth-grade cultivation method "Azure Cloud Unfallen"!]
[Do you wish to bestow this gift?]
"Yes!"
[You are bestowing four C7-type Sky Star Spirit Seekers!]
[...]
As Li Wei continued his busy work, in the game world's scenes, the Li family members were also rapidly gathering. According to the plan devised by the ancestors and Li Yaowen, they had to seize the opportune moment; otherwise, experts from powerful forces would encircle and suppress them. Furthermore, they might lose the chance to avenge Old Pig personally!
[Medicine King Valley]
It had to be said that Medicine King Valley was indeed extraordinary. They had the Heavenly Pond White Lotus, a top-grade Spirit Weapon, protecting the sect, and the Seventh-Grade Hundred Flowers Formation guarding the valley securely. Although Li Yaozu possessed a sword body, he was ultimately only at the early stage of Golden Core. Despite his formidable physical strength and exceptional sword intent, he couldn't break through Medicine King Valley's defenses for the time being.
The Seven Ironclad were resilient, but they only possessed the power of the False Core Formation stage. They couldn't even fully utilize the power of their top-grade Spirit Weapons.
With just them, unless they conducted a months-long siege or waited until Medicine King Valley's spirit stones were depleted, it would be impossible to break in.
Yao Xian'er even had a smile on her face. She only needed to wait for the powerful forces to arrive, and then she could capture the Li family in one fell swoop.
But such luck only lasted for half an hour.
In the distance, a muscular, bald man with an iron arm descended from the sky. Dozens of puppets fell from mid-air, among them a terrifying mecha that rose into the air, spewing flames from its rear!
"Hahaha, excellent! Elder Brother, and my seven rascals, take a break! I was stuck at that wretched Wu family place for half a day, and I'm itching for action!"
As soon as Li Yaotie arrived, he wielded his massive iron hammer, as tall as a person, and began smashing everything in sight.
Then came a towering giant tree, upon which stood a woman whose body was concealed by vines, her gentle voice the only indication of her presence. "Elder Brother, Third Brother," she said, "just kill the people. Don't destroy the spiritual herbs within Medicine King Valley. I have a great use for them."
Immediately following came countless demonic beasts!
Li Tianyi arrived, accompanied by the twenty-three fragmented souls.
Dawn assassins swarmed in from all directions, along with the fourth-generation descendants of the Li family!
Even Li Tianming rushed over. This rascal had killed someone in the Azure Cloud Pavilion and was being chased when Li Yaowen left. He held high the head of the Azure Cloud Pavilion's once-in-a-millennium genius, banging on their formation, begging his idol, Fourth Aunt, to take him along.
Yao Xian'er looked up with a dull gaze.
The shadow of the Li family completely enveloped Medicine King Valley.
She had thought that by siding with the Skyveil Sect and the Azure Cloud Pavilion, she was siding with the victors. She had thought that by serving the truly powerful, she would receive ample rewards. She had thought that by standing on the side of justice in the Azure Cloud region, she would achieve ultimate victory, gaining both fame and fortune.
Unfortunately, her gamble did not pay off.
As the Li family members overwhelmed Medicine King Valley's formations, she saw their ferocious faces.
Still believing herself to be righteous and awe-inspiring, she let out a shrill roar,
"Do not fear! Evil cannot triumph over good! All those in Medicine King Valley, prepare yourselves! Fight them to the death!"
