Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1078: Chapter 1008: The Five Viscera

Li Zhirui conducted cultivation experiments on these cultivators, with the most crucial aspect being to validate whether the Five Visceral Refining Divine Method could indeed benefit Cave Heaven.

Therefore, in addition to having them comprehend the newly created Methods, they also needed to cultivate the ”Earth Spirit Tao Record” and were provided with ample resources to accelerate their cultivation speed, so that Li Zhirui could see the results as soon as possible.

Fortunately, there wasn’t a need for them to cultivate to the Void Refinement Realm. It was possible to see clues during the Blessed Land phase, which could save Li Zhirui a lot of resources.

As for the Contracted Spirit Seed, there was also no need to provide them with the best ones, just meeting the conditions was enough.

Under Li Zhirui’s watchful eye, pressure, and strong push, how could those Robbing Cultivators dare to resist?

Listening to a powerful Lianxu Cultivator’s teachings would be a great thing if the context were different, surely they would be very excited and thrilled.

Unfortunately, the surrounding Formation and bones scattered everywhere served as constant reminders to them that this was not a good situation.

Yet they didn’t dare to not listen attentively, despite knowing that their future might not be promising, at least for now they could continue to live on.

If they failed to complete Li Zhirui’s testing, those fresh corpses beside them were warnings to them!

Time swiftly passed by, and before they knew it, they had been imprisoned for over a year.

From the initial dozen or so cultivators to now fewer than ten, the high attrition rate was evident.

And after more than a year of Li Zhirui’s guidance and teaching, these Robbing Cultivators, whether in terms of cultivation or realm, had seen very significant improvements.

After all, most Robbing Cultivators who embarked on this path came from backgrounds such as Loose Cultivators or small powers; they had never enjoyed such formal instruction.

Not to mention that Li Zhirui’s teaching methods were strict, with corresponding assessments every month. Those who survived naturally met the standards.

However, the more they were like this, the more uneasy and anxious the hearts of these Robbing Cultivators became, because with more knowledge came quicker deaths, and they were extremely tense waiting for that day to arrive.

”Starting from today, you will start to alter your Cultivation Technique. These are Spirit Pills for healing wounds.”

One day, instead of giving his usual teachings, Li Zhirui issued a command.

”Within one month, I want to see the traces of your actions, and you had better be very cautious. If the alteration fails, even if you are lucky enough to survive, living on will not be possible.”

After that, he delivered the various pre-prepared Spirit Pills in front of them and then turned to leave.

Each of them was confined in an individual Array Space, aware of the existence of each other and able to hear sounds from the outside world, but unable to let their own voices out.

Therefore, they didn’t even have the opportunity to discuss or speak with each other; they could only make decisions on their own.

”Better to live poorly than to die well!”

This was the common thought in all the Robbing Cultivators’ minds; they had all persisted for so long, and naturally couldn’t give up at the last moment.

Although they were all well aware that they were just the ’guinea pigs’ for testing cultivation techniques, most likely doomed to eventually die.

All the Robbing Cultivators followed Li Zhirui’s instructions, with a peaceful mind, slowly dispersing their original cultivation techniques. The mana that had accumulated over the years flowed in reverse, eventually merging into the heavens and earth.

Even with the help of specific Spirit Pills, this process still caused considerable damage to their meridians and required them to maintain high mental focus and control their mana, lest it threaten their own lives.

Perhaps they were lucky, or perhaps because the Li family had conducted the experiment too many times and gained rich experience in dismantling and rebuilding cultivation, all of these individuals survived safely.

Each person’s progress varied in speed. Li Zhirui handed over the prepared Spirit Seed and Mana-recovering Spirit Pills to a few cultivators.

Because they were just experimental subjects, there was no need to consider issues like foundational stability; what Li Zhirui needed now was to verify the efficacy of the Five Visceral Method as quickly as possible.

Thus, after refining a large quantity of Spirit Pills, in just a short span of one year, some cultivators had restored their Nascent Soul cultivation, and the Spirit Seed also underwent changes, leaving their bodies, taking root in the soil, and gradually transforming it into Blessed Land.

Li Zhirui divided the ”Earth Spirit Tao Record” into two versions, distributed to different Robbing Cultivators for cultivation.

One version was what he cultivated, modified to suit his own unique conditions; the other version, naturally, was the Qiao Acupoint World flow modified by Da Qing.

On this basis, Li Zhirui further divided them into two groups, cultivating and not cultivating the Five Visceral Refining Divine Method. Those not cultivating this method were used as reference targets, so having just one person was sufficient.

As time flew by, when someone successfully cultivated the Five Viscera Method, Li Zhirui began to evaluate this method, looking for similarities and differences in the effects of the two different versions.

”Both show a certain degree of enhancement! And there are no noticeable differences.” The results of the investigation surprised Li Zhirui; there was no significant disparity.

Moreover, the extent of the enhancement was not as significant as he had imagined, only less than a tenth larger than the Blessed Lands of the two reference cultivators.

”That’s not right!”

Li Zhirui frowned and then suddenly relaxed, murmuring to himself: ”They have only just cultivated the Five Viscera Method now; such a great enhancement is already quite significant!”

And there was also another factor to consider: the foundation of these Robbing Cultivators and conditions such as the Five Elements Spiritual Items they used were quite poor.
