Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 994: Chapter 966: Movement

Because cultivation this time was not in a rush for a breakthrough, Li Zhirui did not continue to rely on Precious Pills. Instead, by absorbing Sun and Moon Essence, he steadily improved his Cultivation.

And regarding the time spent on cultivation, he also made a substantial change, adjusting his practice schedule to a normal state, and spent the extra time contemplating the ”Terrestrial Spirit Path Records” as well as several high-ranked Pill Recipes.

Although some Precious Pills were not suitable for Li Zhirui to consume, or rather their effects were somewhat insignificant, given their Grade, he could still improve his Alchemy Dao Realm by studying and understanding them.

This would facilitate both the concoction of sixth-order Precious Pills in the future and his own extrapolation of Pill Recipes, resulting in significant promotional effects.

He was merely temporarily refraining from using Precious Pills for cultivation; after all, using Precious Pills to expedite the cultivation process was a shortcut to the ultimate south. As long as it was moderate, it would not cause any problems.

Moreover, the Precious Pills refined by Li Zhirui were purified thoroughly, the impurities completely removed, so they would not cause any trouble for him.

If he wanted to relax his mind, he would browse through the Jade Slips in the Taoist Temple.

These were the accumulation of tens of thousands of years, vast in number and complex in content, not something Li Zhirui could finish reading in a short time. Not to mention that recently, he had devoted most of his energy to preaching to his clan members.

For example, he learned from the complex Jade Slips about the four Great Realms of the Immortal Realm, namely Individual Immortal, Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, and Heavenly Immortal.

However, Li Zhirui only knew about these four Great Realms. He was still ignorant about their subdivisions, whether they were simply divided into the three small realms of early, middle, and late, or something else.

As for whether there were realms above the Heavenly Immortal, higher and more profound, he had no idea.

Nevertheless, there probably were since Jiang Fengwu’s teacher, Liang Zhuoying had mentioned that the Primal Spirit Realm could no longer accommodate his presence.

Moreover, Li Zhirui had seen from a damaged Jade Slip that in the Primal Spirit Realm, Individual Immortals were common, Human Immortals dominated, while Earth Immortals and Heavenly Immortals rarely appeared.

This further confirmed his speculation. If the Heavenly Immortal was the end point of the Great Tao, then those Celestial Immortals would have no need to continue their Cultivation.

Speaking of which!

Another reason why Li Zhirui was no longer rushing to restore his Cultivation was because over the past hundred years, he had been somewhat overzealous with that strain of Five Elements Immortal Root!

Perhaps it seemed fine now, but a hidden danger was indeed planted. If it persisted, it would inevitably erupt one day.

By then, it would be too late to resolve!

While the Li family members felt depressed that Li Zhirui no longer preached to them, the pointers he had given for the past few months had still led many clan members to make considerable progress.

So it was not just him; the whole family was immersed in Cultivation. Mount Wanxian suddenly became tranquil, and connectedly in the Thousandfold Mountains, the Li family kept a much lower profile.

However, this quietness instead drew even more attention to the Li family from other powers!

The main reason was the Li family’s development was too fast. They arrived at the Thousandfold Mountains just a few hundred years ago and had grown from a Divine Transformation family that had fled here in embarrassment, to a well-established Void Refinement great clan.

Those forces that had previously joined hands to force the Li family to hand over the Pill Recipes had already paid visits, specifically expressing their apologies and offering a generous compensation.

After all, the current strength of the Li family was not much weaker than theirs. But the main point was the Li family’s developmental potential was too dazzling. If they could not suppress the Li family now, it was better to clear up the misunderstandings sooner.

Indeed, some powers thought of joining hands to erase the Li family before they could surpass them, but discord among their hearts was rife, with every power wishing to contribute less and avoid heavy losses.

Under such circumstances, how could they agree? Eventually, they parted ways unhappily.

But had they agreed back then, the Li family truly would have faced a crisis, for the strongest Li Zhirui was not within the family.

Thus, the Li family’s recent silence made many powers suspicious, speculating that there might be significant changes in the Li family.

Whether their strength had become stronger or some unexpected contingency had occurred, they had no way of knowing.

The Li family had always been good at keeping secrets.

Whether one called the Li family reclusive or cautious, they had maintained a long-standing tradition in the Profound Origin Realm, which was not to intermarry with other Cultivation powers!

Even if a clan member developed feelings for a Cultivator from another power and intended to become Dao companions, the Li family would investigate secretly to ensure that the other party was not undercover and would not leak important family intelligence.

And even if the other party had no ulterior motives, the Li family would not let them know too much. Inheritance Skills were even more out of reach for them unless they contributed to the family’s development, like Jiang Fengwu!

At the East Sea Sea Eye location.

In the boundless sea area, all Sea Clan members of the sixth order or above had gathered here. At a glance, one couldn’t see the end; the terrifying Demon Energy was turning the surrounding seawater a different color.

And at the central location, there were several dozen Immortal Realm Sea Clan members from the East Sea! With Individual Immortals as the majority, there were only eight Human Immortals, but each one had a very solemn expression.

Because they had received clear news that the major powers of Immortal Tao were mobilizing sect disciples and gathering Loose Cultivators. The entire East Continent was preparing for a great battle!

As for the target? There was no need to think too much about it, who else could it be but the East Sea Clan.

Since the fall of Ying State Myriad Islands, the East Continent Immortal Tao had never abandoned the idea of rebuilding, because this was a symbol of the formidable strength of Immortal Tao!
