Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1905 - 1421: Pending Repairs (2)
Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
In that instant, a shadowy figure darted from the group, charging into the nearby chamber before anyone else could react.
The Demon Cultivator, overwhelmed by the sight of countless Spiritual Objects, fixated solely on gathering them up, intent on claiming every last one without sharing.
The remaining Demon Cultivators held back from intervening. They observed with icy detachment as their former ally, who had traveled with them moments ago, descended into frenzy, showing no desire to assist him.
As the furious Demon Cultivator finished scooping up all the Spiritual Objects and tried to flee the area, the other seven Demon Cultivators struck without a second thought or any prior signal, launching a joint assault on him.
Not even two fists can rival four hands, much less a swarm of Demon Cultivators at the same Realm?
The victim had no hope of enduring that overwhelming force, getting ripped apart instantly with zero chance to fight back, his life snuffed out entirely.
"How do we divide up these Spiritual Objects?" one Demon Cultivator inquired.
"Why not share them equally between the seven of us?"
The fallen one was obviously excluded. With him gone, there was no reason to set aside his share. Demon Cultivators never bother with last wills or returning items to the dead's kin, unlike proper Cultivators who honor such duties.
No one with ulterior plans raised objections to the equal division; it seemed fair for the moment, and who could predict the outcome otherwise?
"Even if this is merely a manor, as the legacy of the mighty Great Demon Changyou, it must hide a cultivation chamber somewhere. Let's search thoroughly—perhaps it holds his profound insights into cultivation."
Once the Spiritual Objects were handed out, a Demon Cultivator shared his suspicion, convinced more treasures lurked beyond mere items.
Precious as Spiritual Objects may be, they pale against Chang You’s deep cultivation insights and comprehensions.
A lightbulb moment struck the group—indeed, how could they let these Spiritual Objects cloud their judgment? Departing now would mean grabbing sesame seeds while losing the watermelon!
With that, they meticulously combed through every nook of the cave, eventually uncovering a concealed cultivation chamber!
creak—
Beneath the group's anxious and eager stares, they glanced through the now-open entrance.
Spotting a bookshelf within the room, lined with various Classics and Jade Slips, and imagining what secrets they might hold, the Demon Cultivators' breathing grew rapid.
"What if we copy the contents of these Classics and Jade Slips right now, then examine them at leisure back home? Sound good?"
"That's a solid plan. It saves time, lets each of us make our own copies, and avoids any trust issues."
From the moment they stepped into this Treasure Land, these Demon Cultivators acted with surprising unity, more akin to fellow sect members or family Cultivators adventuring in high spirits than ruthless Demon Cultivators.
In barely an hour, the twenty to thirty Classics and Jade Slips were all replicated by the team.
And so, their thrilling treasure expedition wrapped up triumphantly.
"Farewell for now, all. May we team up once more next time." With those words, one Demon Cultivator shifted into a streak of yellow light, sinking into the ground and vanishing in a flash.
The rest lacked skill in Earth Escape, preventing them from exiting the same way. This location lay buried deep underground, burdened by immense pressure. Lacking Earth Escape mastery, anyone risked getting stuck below.
Admittedly, their cultivation levels and power allowed them to blast a path upward by force.
Yet that approach would prove both humiliating and a massive drain on time.
Thus, they opted to soar back through the passage to the surface, postponing further business for later.
...
"What's taking so long? No noise from the cave at all."
At the cave's mouth, Jiang Fengwu lingered without spotting any Demon Cultivators exiting, a wave of restlessness washing over her.
"Did they all perish inside?"
The thought crossed her mind, creasing her brow, though she dismissed it soon after. These were Earth Immortal Demon Cultivators, after all; a brawl among them couldn't possibly stay utterly quiet.
But right then, a Demon Cultivator struck!
No—it was all seven Demon Cultivators lunging at once, each aiming to eliminate the rest and claim victory alone.
In an instant, Yin Qi flooded the cavern, then crimson glows lit the heavens as refined corpses howled. A barrage of Divine Powers and lethal techniques burst forth from these scheming individuals.
"Hmm!"
The massive disturbance jolted Jiang Fengwu, who hid near the exit; it hinted at either valuable finds within or a total lack of Spiritual Objects.
