Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1138: Chapter 1038: The Invitation

After obtaining the Demonslaying Divine Ability he wanted, Li Zhirui did not go back to look for those cultivators hiding within the formations, because the Divine Powers he already had in hand were plenty for his study.

With the time he had, it was better to continue exploring the next deserted Spirit Mountain, there might be more gains to be had.

Checking the map and confirming the direction, Li Zhirui once again set off flying.

”Eh?”

One day, as he was searching for abandoned Spiritual Objects in a mountain, he suddenly noticed several beams of Spirit Light flying towards his location at great speed.

While Li Zhirui was still puzzled, the next moment, several dark beams of Spirit Light appeared in his line of sight.

He instantly realized these were being chased by Calamity Beasts and Catastrophe Beasts.

Calamity Beasts and Catastrophe Beasts, different names, but both born in response to the destruction of the world, the former from various natural disasters and man-made calamities’ negative energy, while the latter from catastrophe energy.

They both have extremely hard flesh and, due to their special nature, a certain immunity to Mana. Coupled with the rapid growth and the characteristic to attack living creatures upon sight, they cause massive destruction of life once they are born.

It could be said that it is precisely because of their existence that leads to the massive death of living creatures when the world is destroyed, and the vast death energy further accelerates the speed of the world’s destruction.

During his treasure searching, Li Zhirui had also encountered Calamity Beasts and Catastrophe Beasts several times, and other than fighting them at first, he avoided them by entering into the spatial realm during the subsequent encounters.

It wasn’t that Li Zhirui was afraid of them, but after expending a lot of effort and a large amount of Mana to kill them, he wouldn’t gain any benefits, and no one would do such a losing business.

However, this group of beasts had extremely keen senses, or more accurately, they were very sensitive to the vitality of life, able to detect it from hundreds of miles away and then pursue relentlessly, never stopping until death.

Therefore, apart from cultivators like Li Zhirui who had special maneuvers, few others could escape their pursuit.

”Fellow Daoist! Save me!”

As Li Zhirui discovered them, they also spotted him and flew towards him with bad intentions, believing that more people meant a higher chance of survival.

As for whether the other party would die as a result, no one would care about that, as long as it wasn’t themselves dying.

”Hmph!”

Li Zhirui’s face instantly turned cold, and he immediately used his Divine Power, casting vines toward them.

”What are you doing?!”

”We’re both cultivators of the same realm, you’re seeing death without saving, and even helping those beasts?”

The cultivators didn’t expect this reaction from Li Zhirui. One of them even questioned him loudly.

Even if the others did not speak, their expressions were very ugly, with blame in their eyes.

”Hahahaha!”

Seeing their reactions, the anger in Li Zhirui’s heart instantly dissipated completely, realizing it was not worth it to get angry over such foolish people.

He didn’t bother to explain. Seeing that the Calamity Beasts and Catastrophe Beasts were about to catch up, he said nothing and directly entered into the spatial realm, disappearing without a trace.

”Where did he go?” At this critical moment, there were still cultivators who were not clear-headed and wanted to find Li Zhirui for trouble.

”Stop looking! Run for your life, those beasts will catch up soon!”

”Damn it! Don’t let me encounter him in the Primal Spirit Realm, otherwise, I will make him beg for life but not be able to beg for death!”

After leaving a vicious remark, the person continued to flee in a sorry state.

...

Li Zhirui, who had escaped into the spatial realm, began to calmly inventory the various Spiritual Objects he had obtained so far.

It had been over two months since entering the Taixu Illusionary Realm, and because he had a clear goal, his gains were quite substantial.

It took nearly two hours to categorize all the Spiritual Objects.

The most precious were a few Seventh Rank Spiritual Objects, including a Seventh Rank Spirit Seed, two Seventh Rank Spiritual Objects, and several Seventh Rank Methods, all obtained from the hands of cultivators who tried to harm Li Zhirui.

There were also quite a few Sixth and Seventh Rank Spiritual Objects, but the most numerous were the low-level spiritual items, because they were not highly valued, required less Spiritual Energy to use, and were not very delicate, ultimately ending up with Li Zhirui.

”I wonder if Falling Star State or Daqian Dynasty won the struggle.” After becoming idle, this question suddenly emerged in Li Zhirui’s mind.

Originally, Li Zhirui chose not to participate in the conflict wishing to explore in a different method, because he was still digesting the opportunities from the last venture into the Taixu Illusionary Realm.

But after he really entered, he discovered that the destruction of the Qianling Realm was very severe, having reached the brink of collapse, with the Heavenly Dao asleep, making it impossible to replicate the opportunities he saw in the Earth Spirit Realm.

After all, in a world on the verge of destruction, without the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, how could Li Zhirui cross a major realm of cultivation?

Thus, Li Zhirui had always remained aloof from the struggle, completely unaware of the disputes between the two sides.

”However, it’s been almost three months since entering, the outcome should be decided soon, right?” Li Zhirui mumbled to himself.

He sensed that the Qianling Realm wouldn’t last much longer. If he didn’t hurry to attract it, there wouldn’t be much to gain even if he merged into the Primal Spirit Realm later.

These things seemed to have little to do with Li Zhirui, but if he wanted to leave the Qianling Realm, he had to have someone anchor and complete the attraction.

Li Zhirui felt that he had almost finished exploring the Qianling Realm, not because he had traversed the entire world, but because he found fewer and fewer Spiritual Objects later on, and even the low-level ones started to show signs of dying out, let alone the delicate high-level ones.
