Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 953: Chapter 945: Trade_2

At that speed, wouldn’t it only take a day to completely remove the black filth from the entire Spirit Vein?

No, that’s not right!

The Bai Lians would grow more numerous over time, meaning it wouldn’t even take that long.

”Fellow Senior, please follow me!”

Li Zhirui had proven himself with his strength, so now he spoke with previously absent respect.

”Let’s go.” Li Zhirui certainly wouldn’t act stubborn—that would be foolish—and calmly followed.

However, they hadn’t gone far when a group of Cultivators surrounded them, including not a few at the Nascent Soul Stage, and even some at the Integration Great Power stage.

It seemed that the moment they started moving, the reception Cultivator had informed the Sect Leader, stirring most of the high-ranking members of the Wood Spirit Sect, who then came flying over at top speed.

They were all eager to witness the effects of such a significant purification method.

Helpless, Li Zhirui and his companion had to return to the front of the Spirit Vein, watching as various Nascent Soul and Combined Body Cultivators frantically examined the Spirit Vein, expressions of surprise appearing on their faces.

”I wonder how the young friend achieved this?” one of the Integration powers asked impatiently.

Li Zhirui smiled and remained silent. The crucial part of the method involved transforming the Purification Laws into a special type of lotus seed. If he hadn’t witnessed the entire process years ago and cultivated Bai Lians for so many years, he wouldn’t have been able to create it.

He hadn’t yet acquired the Spiritual Objects he wanted; how could he possibly give away his exclusive method?

Realizing his blunt query, the great power knew he’d been rash, but as an old monster who had lived so long, thick-skinned was an understatement.

Pretending nothing had happened, he asked, ”Young friend, you completed the task perfectly, what would you like to exchange for?”

”As long as our Wood Spirit Sect has it, feel free to ask!”

Since the Wood Spirit Sect had issued the Hero’s Mandate, they naturally had to fulfil their promise. What face would the sect have otherwise?

And his statement, apart from being a promise, was more about trying to obtain the purification method from Li Zhirui.

”I want a Sixth Order Pill Recipe that a sect or family can inherit to accelerate the cultivation speed at the Void Refinement Realm,” Li Zhirui said straightforwardly, stating his goal.

’New Nascent Soul power?’

This statement inadvertently revealed some information, but it was unimportant because such new Nascent Soul powers are extremely common and couldn’t possibly be used to pinpoint his force based on just this.

”Alright!” A Sixth Order Pill Recipe was nothing.

You must know that the Wood Spirit Sect is known throughout Wanzhu State for Alchemy and Spirit Plants. Not to mention a Sixth Order Pill Recipe, even a Seventh Order might be possible.

As long as Li Zhirui was willing to give up the secret technique.

”Young one, I’d like to offer the method of planting Bai Lians in the Spirit Vein in exchange for all the required Spirit Seeds for the pill recipe and an additional five types of Sixth Order Spirit Seeds. What do you think, senior?”

When he spoke these words, Li Zhirui’s demeanor suddenly became respectful, as if making a request.

Maintaining so-called pride is not advisable when there is a large gap in strength between the two parties.

Li Zhirui asked for additional Sixth Order Spirit Seeds, clearly intending to deduce the pill recipes; after all, one type of pill recipe was too few to cover all Cultivators.

”Alright.” The Integration Great Power agreed without hesitation, very decisively.

The items he wanted were mere trifles for the large and prosperous Wood Spirit Sect—there was no need to haggle over them and waste time. He even allowed Li Zhirui to specify which five types of Spirit Seeds he wanted.

Naturally, Li Zhirui gladly accepted, pondered for a moment, and then named five Spiritual Objects: Seven-Colored Treasure Lotus, Yang Jade Fruit, Warm Moon Silver Flower, Xuan Huang Plum, and Cloud Clearing Spirit Flower.

These five Spiritual Objects all had effects on nurturing the Spiritual Soul and enhancing its strength.

Evidently, Li Zhirui was considering for his own and his family’s future growth and strengthening.

The great power said nothing; he directly ordered someone to fetch the pill recipe and various types of Spirit Seeds.

Li Zhirui had not yet handed over the Jade Slip because he had not yet engraved the Methods into it.

Or rather, it was intentional.

This bit of trickery naturally couldn’t escape the discerning eyes of those experienced, but no one called him out on it.

Before long, the cultivator returning with the Pill Recipe and Spirit Seeds came back and handed them directly to Li Zhirui, who then passed along the Jade Slip.

”Full of creative ideas!”

The Secret Technique wasn’t complex. With the perspective of an Integration Great Power, he learned it quickly. It involved using a special spell to condense the rich Purification Principle into a pinpoint of Spirit Light and then transform it into a lotus seed.

At this moment, the lotus seed was just plain Spirit Light, but after a cycle of growth, it would become a Spirit Seed.

”Senior, you flatter me,” Li Zhirui said modestly.

”Could you demonstrate it for us once more?”

Li Zhirui nodded and replicated the process precisely. He used the Bai Lian to gather the Purification Principle not only to save energy but also in consideration of the other cultivators.

After all, cultivators mastering other Laws couldn’t mobilize the Purification Principle from the heaven and earth like him—they would need to rely on external forces.

In reality, the cultivators who chose the Purification Principle were definitely few and far between, for it provided no enhancement to their combat power!

Combat power wasn’t the most important thing, but as a means of protection, it absolutely couldn’t be weak; otherwise, one would easily perish on the path of cultivation.

This reason alone was enough to deter most cultivators, unless someone had a very high compatibility with the Purification Principle and it was greatly beneficial for their future cultivation; otherwise, cultivators generally wouldn’t choose the Purification Principle.

When Li Zhirui had originally chosen the Purification Principle, firstly he had many Contracted Spirit Beasts, and he used Spirit Vines as his means of attack, which compensated for much of his shortcomings in combat power.

Secondly, his compatibility with the Purification Principle was the highest; in a resource-scarce Minor Thousand World like the Profound Origin Realm, naturally, he would find ways to reduce the difficulty of cultivation.

”If there’s nothing else, this junior will take his leave.” After demonstrating in front of the crowd, Li Zhirui prepared to bid farewell.

He needed to visit more Combined Forces ahead of the Wood Spirit Sect to exchange for more cultivation resources.

”Sen Rong, go see our young friend off.”

A Lianxu Cultivator, who seemed quite young, promptly stood up and escorted Li Zhirui away from the Wood Spirit Sect.

The treatment he received this time compared to when he arrived was worlds apart, indicating that this person’s status in the Wood Spirit Sect was definitely not low.

The two chatted casually on the road, but still attempted to probe Li Zhirui’s true identity.

Aware that the more he said, the more mistakes he could make, he was reticent throughout the journey, only responding politely to the other party.

”Fellow Daoist, please halt, I shall take my leave!”

The moment Li Zhirui stepped outside the mountain gate of the Wood Spirit Sect, he bowed respectfully and then left using the fastest method possible.

”Master, that man is too cautious; I couldn’t get anything from him,” Sen Rong said somewhat discouraged upon returning.

”That person seems to be from a minor power, having climbed his way up from the very bottom; it’s normal that you couldn’t probe his origins,” the great power had no high hopes for him.

Although Sen Rong had experience going out for training, his origins meant he was unlikely to end up in any perilous situations and had never truly been among the lower echelons.

”After this disaster concludes, leave most of your life-saving means and go out for training for a while.”

”Yes!” Sen Rong, proud as ever, was not convinced by his master’s modest words and vocally affirmed his agreement.

The great power secretly shook his head, realizing too late that he had overprotected Sen Rong since accepting him, hoping he would elevate the Sect to greater heights.

Knowing that their current status was achieved through various life-threatening challenges, how could they expect significant improvement from just a few playful training outings?

Li Zhirui did not realize that his departure had made him a tool used for the other party’s purposes, as he was busy flying towards the next Combined Force.
