Chapter 490 He Attacked First
Since Taiyi Real Immortal came out, the other Real Immortal Realm cultivators would not remain idle. Both the fierce beasts and the Immortal Court cultivators who were mistaken for ferocious beasts flew up from where they stayed to besiege Li Ye and the other cultivators.
Around them, the fierce beasts kept roaring. The beasts that either crawled on the ground or flew in the air began to gather around the area of wolves. Even if there were only more than two thousand beasts, it was enough to surround Li Ye and other cultivators. Besides, more than one hundred immortals of the Immortal Court were among these beasts, all of which had high cultivation and had achieved the Ground Immortal Realm at least. Therefore, this army was in excellent state.
At this point, cultivators like Wei Weiwu and others didn’t need to hide themselves anymore. They all turned into human figures with magic tools in their hands. By making use of their cultivation, they rallied their forces for the incoming battle. Moreover, Qi Potian, Li Jian and the others, who were ready to fight at any time for the last chance, encircled Li Ye to protect him.
Under the pressure of Taiyi Real Immortal, White Wolf snorted. He raised his chin and said proudly, “You attacked me by surprise, so you had gained the upper hand. Do you think really I am afraid of you? I have cultivated for thousands of years and fought countless bloody battles. Violent storms and waves are nothing to me. If you have the guts, you can try to take my head!”
Watching Taiyi Real Immortal and White Wolf talking, Li Ye suddenly felt something strange. Taiyi Real Immortal’s gaze merely rested briefly on him but had never settled on him, which meant that perhaps, Taiyi Real Immortal didn’t recognize him at all or he didn’t know him at all.
Li Ye touched his chin, feeling that this matter was getting more interesting. When he learned that the cultivators of the Immortal Court appeared in the campsite, he thought that they knew he was nearby, so they controlled the fierce beasts to make trouble for him. In the mortal world, Li Ye had become used to being hunted by the Immortal Court cultivators who always glued to him like maggots.
But now it seemed that the cultivators of the Immortal Court didn’t aim at him when they controlled the fierce beasts and formed the beast tide.
If that was the case, it was reasonable that they did not recognize him. After all, there were not many cultivators from the Immortal Court who tried to assassinate him in the mortal world. As a mortal, he was not qualified to be widely known by all the cultivators in the Immortal Court.
If so, what were they doing here?
When White Wolf and Taiyi Real Immortal were yelling at each other, White Wolf found time to secretly pass his voice into the ears of Li Ye and Hong Xiu. “This guy’s fighting ability isn’t that outstanding. He’s only at the early stage of Taiyi Real Immortal Realm. I can’t defeat him because he has the secret method of suppressing the demon clan.”
“When they are locked in a tangled fight later, it should not be hard for me to hold him back for some time. Although the fierce beasts in the campsite follow his orders, I am in charge of the wolfpack. The majority of these wolves will obey me. So you have a great chance to escape!”
Hong Xiu hurriedly replied, “Master White Wolf, what about you if we’ve left?”
White Wolf cast a glance at Hong Xiu and said, “Don’t worry. It’s not so easy for this guy to kill me! And remember, don’t look back after escaping from the campsite. The farther you go, the better! It seems that this guy has something important to do here. As long as you go far enough, he won’t chase you.”
Saying these words was easy. It seemed to him that he could defeat Taiyi Real Immortal without effort and get away safely. However, from the latter part of his words, he accidentally revealed the fact that he thought he couldn’t go on helping Hong Xiu. It meant that he was not sure if he could escape and join Li Ye and the others.
Hong Xiu was not stupid. Of course, she realized this. In fact, she remained artless only when she was with Li Ye. Knowing what White Wolf meant, she was on the verge of tears. “Master White Wolf, I won’t leave first. I will join the battle with you!”

Hearing her words, Li Ye couldn’t help taking a few more looks at Hong Xiu.
“Cut out all this nonsense!” White Wolf looked a little anxious now because the fierce beast had already come closer to them. “Don’t forget that I could eat you back then! So your life belongs to me! If I ask you to leave now, you leave!”
By the time he finished speaking, Taiyi Real Immortal had already launched his attack against him.
Taiyi Real Immortal waved his long sleeve, and a long snow-white whip appeared in his hand. It was a Magic Treasure of middle class-ranking! Beyond that, it was of the highest quality among those middle class-ranking treasures. He swung the long whip toward White Wolf, and the thunder burst out in the midair. When the long whip arrived in front of White Wolf, it began to snow heavily in the area of the entire camp. Along with the freezing snow, the howling wind sounded exceedingly shrill, giving people the creeps.
White Wolf snorted coldly and flew up to fight with a long sword in his hand. In an instant, he launched dozens of beams of sword light shooting toward the long whip. With the purple light shining around him, White Wolf smashed the snowflakes that came at him. His counterblow looked very powerful.
The ferocious beasts were coming to besiege them, launching attacks from all directions. Meanwhile, the wolfpack unsheathed their claws and rose to fight, roaring fiercely. Instantly, the two sides were locked in a tangled fight. With the continuous blasts of Spiritual Qi, waves upon waves of Spiritual Qi rolled away. One after another, trees in the camp fell. Countless branches and leaves turned into powder, scattering around.
“Go quickly!” As White Wolf confronted Taiyi Real Immortal, he still tried to send this order to Hong Xiu’s ears.
Both White Wolf and Taiyi Real Immortal had high cultivation, so they soon broke through the dense canopy of the trees and continued to fight in midair. After each move of them, some of their Spiritual Qi that scattered around was powerful enough to smash a large tract of forest into pieces. White Wolf attacked as anxiously as his voice had expressed. The gust of whirlwind with purple lightning rushed into the heavily falling snow. White Wolf, who was the hero, went to fight alone; he might never come back since then. Somehow, such a scene appeared sad but stirring.
Obviously, to cover the retreat of Hong Xiu and the other cultivators, White Wolf was fighting at the risk of his life just when he started fighting.
“Your Highness...” Hong Xiu bit her red lips and finally turned around. She decided to fight a way out with Li Ye and others.
In fact, she was very clear that in the siege of the Immortals and the fierce beasts, they had no other choice but to retreat. If they delayed for a moment, they might not be able to escape.
After all, there were four or five fierce beasts in the Real Immortal Realm and an Immortal Real Immortal Realm. Thus, Li Ye and others couldn’t resist them at all.
However, when Hong Xiu turned to look at Li Ye, she was shocked to find that he was no longer there. The figure with long hair and a long robe had flown up already, taking the initiative to attack the Immortal of the Real Immortal Realm!
“Why should we run away? Don’t just stand there. Beat them up for me!” Li Ye’s voice suddenly came out, resounding through the clouds.
With the confidence in their high cultivation, several fierce beasts and the Immortal who were all in the Real Immortal Realm had separated themselves from their large troop, attempting to make a sudden and violent attack to prevent Li Ye and others from escaping. Thus, as soon as Li Ye rushed out, he met the Immortal.
Hong Xiu was stunned. She didn’t expect Li Ye to be so determined. In such a disadvantageous situation, he chose to take the initiative to attack. But after the Immortal in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm killed White Wolf, it would be as easy as winking for him to annihilate the rest of them. Didn’t Li Ye know this?
Though she was shocked and surprised, Hong Xiu didn’t hesitate. On the contrary, with the strong fighting desire bursting out in her eyes, she chose to fight the fierce beasts right after Li Ye.
For her, as long as she had other choices, she would never abandon White Wolf, whom she regarded as her father, and escape. For now, although she knew that they were unlikely to win, she was not willing to fall behind upon seeing that Li Ye had rushed out.
Once Li Ye started fighting, Wei Weiwu, Qi Potian, and other cultivators had no choice but to get out of the wolfpack to confront the group of beasts.
In particular, Wei Weiwu directly chose to fight with the fierce beasts of the Real Immortal Realm. With his great cultivation, he could even fight with two fierce beasts at the same time. In the battle, his domineering bawls and shouts were well matched with his fat and burly figure.
The Immortal in the Real Immortal Realm standing before Li Ye also held a long sword as his Magic Treasure.
In the view of White Wolf and Hong Xiu, they were at a disadvantage at the beginning of the battle, but Li Ye did not think so. On the contrary, he thought that they were in a dominant position. Originally, they planned to figure out the secrets of the beast tide by sneaking into the camp of ominous beasts. Then, they could eliminate this camp of fierce beasts by cooperating with the more than a thousand cultivators waiting to attack outside.
Because of White Wolf, they had basically found out the secret of the outbreak of the beast tide. At least, they knew that Immortal was behind it. Although the battle seemed to break out suddenly at this moment, it was part of the plan. Moreover, since White Wolf could control the wolfpack, he could offer great help to Li Ye and the other cultivators.
From the beginning of the fierce battle, the campsite fell into complete chaos. Seeing this, Li Ye knew that the situation would be much better than he had expected.
What worried Hong Xiu was Taiyi Real Immortal in the enemy campsite, whom they couldn’t deal with. To be frank, if Taiyi Real Immortal killed White Wolf, the team of cultivators in Liuxi Town would indeed fall into a difficult situation. Even worse, there would be a slim chance of surviving for them.
However, Hong Xiu didn’t fully understand Li Ye’s fighting ability, nor did she know the final cards in Li Ye’s hand.
Before Li Ye rushed to the Immortal of the Real Immortal Realm, he had passed the order of attacking the camp of the fierce beasts to the cultivators in the Liuxi Town by some technique.
Now that the Immortal in the Real Immortal Realm became furious because Li Ye had denied his dignity and ignored his strength.
He stared at Li Ye with his eyes full of killing intent. “You are merely in the Ground Immortal Realm. How dare you to start a fight against me? You’re reckless! In my eyes, your demon clan cultivators are merely ants that can be trampled upon by me freely. Don’t you know that? Not to mention cultivators in the Ground Immortal Realm or the Sky Immortal Realm, I can even kill cultivators in the Real Immortal Realm easily as I please!”
Li Ye threw his sword toward the Immortal’s forehead and said, “Instead of talking big, do you know yourself well enough? Given your evil look, who will believe your bullshit?”
“A sharp tongue will only let me kill you faster!” The Immortal went furious and blocked Li Ye’s Luke Sword with his sword.
As he had expected, he could easily keep off Li Ye’s sword attack. Moreover, he thought his strength was much higher than Li Ye’s, so he could have pulled Li Ye’s arm away to reveal a large part of Li Ye’s body, and then he would cut Li Ye’s head off within one sword strike.
However, when their swords met, the Immortal was suddenly stunned. The vast power coming up through the Luke Sword numbed the part of his hand where he held his sword and caused a stab of pain in his wrist. He didn’t push Li Ye’s sword away. Instead, he suffered a hidden loss. As soon as Li Ye’s sword knocked his, his arm went numb such that he was forced to retreat!
The Immortal shocked, and his face darkened. “Despicable demon! You actually hid your realm! But even if you are in the Real Immortal Realm, what else can you do? I said I would kill you, so you have to accept your death obediently!”
In his opinion, Li Ye must have practiced some kind of secret method to hide his realm so that people could only know that he was in the Ground Immortal Realm. Otherwise, he couldn’t explain how Li Ye could launch this sword strike that had the power of the Real Immortal Realm. That was also why he suffered a small loss this time.
Thinking of this, the Immortal no longer preserved his strength and dared not to be as careless as before. Again and again, he waved his sword to attack, applying his life-long cultivation to each of the Sword Method that he used. He was at the latter stage of the Real Immortal Realm, so his sword light changed immediately after he exerted all his strength. In the air, a great many pear blossoms swirled around the sword light, the scene of which looked gorgeous and colorful.
However, the pear blossoms condensed by Spiritual Qi were far more than beautiful.
Every pear blossom had integrated the essence of the Sword Method, which could directly penetrate the body-protecting spiritual clothes of the Spiritual Master Realm and wound the enemy. It could be regarded as the fruit of his painstaking labor. In the past battles, his pear blossoms had helped him kill many opponents, who were in the same realm as him. Sometimes, even masters in the Great Completion state of the Real Immortal Realm would be defeated by his pear blossoms because of a little mistake.
This was his power of territory.
“What a little and pathetic demon! Go to hell!” The Immortal launched his fierce attack while smiling sinisterly. In his mind, the image that Li Ye was in blood holes appeared.
But soon, the Immortal’s evil smile froze on his face.
He found that his pear blossoms didn’t injure Li Ye at all. Among his sword light, Li Ye wielded a dazzling display of his Sword Method. It was unknown what kind of Sword Method that he used. A lot of lotuses bloomed around his sword. The pear blossoms, which the Immortal was proud of, disappeared instantly when they met the lotus flowers, just like the sparks that had touched the water splashes.
Not only that, the Immortal even felt the danger hidden among those lotus flowers, which made him very scared. He couldn’t help feeling chill on his back, and his heart speeded up.
“What’s this cultivation method?” The Immortal was alarmed.
In his view, Li Ye’s movements looked flexible and light. It seemed as if Li Ye was strolling idly. However, to the Immortal’s surprise, every sword light that he made had a sharp and overbearing aura! With his rich experience and excellent insight, the Immortal prejudged that he must avoid the sword light. Otherwise, he would be seriously injured!
“Of course. It’s a very powerful cultivation method.” Li Ye chuckled, but he looked at the Immortal as if he were as insignificant as an ant. “Unfortunately, you are not qualified to know the name of this cultivation method.”
