Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1336: Chapter 1137: Return

Upon these words, a radiant smile instantly appeared on Liu Caiming’s face.

If he could be bribed to serve, it would be good—are a few mere Spiritual Objects really impossible for the Cave Abyss Sect to produce?

He immediately said loudly, ”Honorable God, rest assured. We sincerely wish to cooperate with you. As for these few Spiritual Objects, what do you think?”

As he spoke, four Spiritual Objects appeared in his hand.

Before his eyes was a piece of Breath Soil, a genuine Earth Attribute heavenly material, of extremely high value.

The remaining three were a spirit essence of a great mountain, a loose immortal grade Meteorite, and a Heavenly Gang Great Divine Power named Mountain Whipping Stone Shifting.

It must be said, the Cave Abyss Sect truly showed goodwill in persuading Li Mingyao.

He feigned ignorance, eyes gleaming with greed.

Seeing this, Liu Caiming scoffed inside, not without some disdain, and grew more confident he could bribe Li Mingyao into sabotaging the Li family’s development.

Unexpectedly, Mingyao shook his head and said, ”These items are not enough to make me take the risk! The Li Family ancestor is extremely powerful. I battled with him once; if not for my Earth God’s status and my ability to instantly escape into the depths of the earth, you’d have likely never seen me again.”

Liu Caiming was terribly vexed; the sect’s offered terms were already very generous, sufficient to easily bribe two or three loose cultivators of Individual Immortal Realm, yet this person claims they’re inadequate? Truly greedy enough to swallow an elephant, heedless of choking!

Unfortunately, this Earth God is the most suitable candidate.

As he mentioned, ordinary loose immortals are no match for Li Zhirui, perhaps even sent to their deaths.

Sending a Human Immortal would violate the rules, and if other forces seized upon it, claiming under the Li family’s name to demand accountability, they’d be at a disadvantage.

Since Ancestor Chongqi achieved Heavenly Immortal, several major forces have been seeking insights and knowledge from the Cave Abyss Sect.

Coupled with the Cave Abyss Sect’s heavy losses and decline in power, they have been acting very cautiously in recent years.

Liu Caiming gritted his teeth and said, ”The sect can offer another Divine Power: the Method of Directing Steel into the Earth.”

Without waiting for Li Mingyao to respond, he quickly added, ”If Honorable God still refuses, then consider I never came!”

”No! I don’t need your second Divine Power.”

Li Mingyao smiled slightly and said, ”I need a Cultivation Technique that can be cultivated to the Realm of Human Immortality! If possible, the other Divine Power can be exchanged for an Earth Immortal Realm Cultivation Method.”

Liu Caiming found it odd but didn’t dwell on it, as he could see these were non-negotiable terms presented by the other.

”I cannot make this decision myself; I must return to the sect to consult whether the elders agree.”

”Then I shall wait for the good news.”

With that, Li Mingyao moved to send him back to the surface.

Now with a huge body, it was inconvenient for him to venture out.

Returning to the Cave Abyss Sect, Liu Caiming recounted their conversation in full.

”A Cultivation Method for Human Immortal Realm, or even Earth Immortal Realm?”

An elder sneered and said, ”This little god is truly greedy.”

Even in the Cave Abyss Sect, there are but a dozen complete Earth Immortal Realm Cultivation Techniques, with only three for Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Already such could be called deeply rooted.

”I say, offer him a partial Earth Immortal Realm Cultivation Method.”

Another elder also showed displeasure, saying, ”I think that ’Qingxuan Nine Spirits Nurturing God Great Tao Scripture’ is quite suitable.”

”Great!”

The other elders nodded with smiles, none voicing dissent.

This Cultivation Method sounds promising, yet it lacks the first five Mortal Realm stages and mid-stage Earth Immortal Methods, devaluing it significantly.

Though the Cave Abyss Sect has completed it, it pales in various aspects compared to other sect’s Earth Immortal Cultivation Techniques.

Hence, the ”Qingxuan Tao Scripture” is not practiced by any disciples in the Cave Abyss Sect, merely rewarded when certain guests or vassals make substantial contributions.

Already a tasteless chicken rib, and they planned to offer it as a fragmented technique; how could they feel any remorse?

”Sorry for making you go again.”

Liu Caiming quickly replied, ”Sect Leader, your words are too heavy; this is my duty.”

Then he took the Token given by the Sect Leader, respectfully bid farewell.

Retrieving the partial Cultivation Method from the Scripture Pavilion, he hurried to meet Li Mingyao in Shanhai State.

”Your sect surprisingly values the Li family so much? So much so that you made a round trip in a day?” Li Mingyao quipped.

In truth, seeking to probe the Cave Abyss Sect’s view on the Li family.

”How can one sleep soundly with another snoring beside them? If not for the sect’s recent misfortunes, and the close ties between the Li family, Sun God, and Moon God, we’d have long eliminated or subdued them, never cutting off the relationship and allowing their independence.” Liu Caiming seemed quite displeased, speaking disdainfully of the Li family.

”Enough talk of this!”

Liu Caiming produced three Spiritual Objects and a Jade Slip, saying, ”This is a partial Earth Immortal Cultivation Method; I wonder if Honorable God is satisfied?”

”Which stages are missing?”

”The first five Mortal Realm stages and mid-stage Earth Immortal.”

Such matters are not to be concealed; be it known, this is common for partial methods.

Li Mingyao frowned; Cultivation Methods are highly precise, missing mid-stage Earth Immortal Methods are less severe than missing the first five Mortal Realm stages.

For these constitute the foundation and conception of a Cultivation Method, the most basic and crucial root; yet without the root, no matter how high or noble the reverse computation by successors, unavoidable problems and deviations will arise.
