Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1434: Chapter 1186: Gathering and Division

Even after leaving the lakebed for some time, the smile on Li Zhirui’s face did not fade.

To understand, that single Two Forms Bright and Dark Spirit Root is enough to save him decades of arduous cultivation, and as time progresses, the Spiritual Root grows, and the Yin Yang Law of the Minor Thousand World can be further perfected.

This means that obtaining that Spiritual Root is not a one-off transaction, but a long-lasting flow.

Li Yunran was naturally envious, but it was unfortunate that he had bad luck, getting severely injured as soon as he entered the Secret Realm, almost missing out on the training, and could only follow the clan’s actions, which was safe but did not yield any good items.

Thinking of this, his initial joy instantly faded away, turning into depression.

Li Zhirui watched the change in his expression, but did not offer comfort, thinking that if he couldn’t withstand even this little setback, and had such a poor mental state, then his Dao Path would end here, and there was no need to waste words.

Speaking of which, since the clan’s strength grew stronger, the clan members’ mental state and Dao Heart have declined.

After all, they can enjoy the great situation created by their ancestors, experiencing fewer setbacks and hardships, inevitably becoming worse in these aspects.

These issues cannot be resolved quickly, and Li Zhirui kept them in mind, intending to formulate a practical plan with Li Xinde once he returned to the clan.

”Let’s go, there are many things hidden within this Secret Realm, we should quickly find the other clan members and seize the time.”

After saying this, he led Li Yunran to fly eastward.

On their way north, they did not find the whereabouts of any clan members, so they could only search around, expand their action range, and continuously monitor the Positioning Treasure.

The method was clumsy, but the results were quite significant. Over the next few days, Li Zhirui encountered Li Yunzhuang and Li Dahong, two Great Mahayana Clan Members.

Their luck wasn’t too bad; after entering the Secret Realm, they were not far apart, promptly finding opponents, continuously acting together, and had not encountered the Immortal Realm, so they were in good condition and uninjured.

”Ancestor Rui! Clan brother Yunran! Great Uncle Ancestor!” The two greeted loudly in excitement.

Although they hadn’t faced danger lately, they naturally knew the peril within the Secret Realm after being outside for so long, so meeting Li Zhirui and Li Yunran was exhilarating.

”It seems you two have gained quite a bit.”

”Luck was good, there weren’t any Individual Immortals nearby, and there was Dahong not far away, so we barely obtained a few Spiritual Objects.” Li Yunzhuang said with a broad smile.

”Do you have anything else to do?”

Li Zhirui asked: ”If not, then let’s continue.”

”Yes!”

Li Yunzhuang quickly replied, ”Ancestor Rui, a hundred miles to the north, there is a Seven-Colored Golden Flower about to mature, but a Tribulation Transcending Demon Cultivator is nearby, and the two of us aren’t opponents; we request Ancestor Rui’s assistance!”

Seven-Colored Golden Flower, a ninth-level Spiritual Object, is the best mortal realm object to nourish and enhance the Spiritual Soul!

As for how important the Spiritual Soul is to a cultivator, it is already well-understood; just to mention, a strong Spiritual Soul aids in comprehending the Laws!

So when they initially discovered the Golden Bud Flower, they were very happy, but they did not anticipate a Demon Cultivator already guarding beside it. If not for their minor life-saving means, they might have died at the Demon Cultivator’s hands.

”Oh? Take me there and let me see.”

Li Zhirui’s eyes immediately lit up, as this item was beneficial to him as well.

He wasn’t planning to monopolize the Golden Bud Flower, given the space he had; having one Spiritual Object and enough Spirit Stones could quickly cultivate a brand new Spiritual Object in a very short time.

Li Yunzhuang’s face brightened, leading the way promptly.

Before long, the group of four saw that Golden Bud Flower, gently swaying under the radiant lights, emanating a seven-colored Spirit Light.

However, in Li Zhirui’s ’eyes’, he also saw the Demon Cultivator lurking nearby.

’Damn it! How could those brats’ elders arrive so quickly!’ The Demon Cultivator was furious and resentful, regretting that he hadn’t killed them a few days earlier, even at a cost.

He worried that injuring his strength might lead to inability to protect the precious Golden Bud Flower if other Tribulation Transcending beings or Immortal Realm beings passed by, hence choosing to retreat.

Looking back now, naturally, he felt immense regret.

”Since I can’t have it, none of you will!” The Demon Cultivator thought hatefully, decisively planning to destroy the Golden Bud Flower.

”Seeking death!”

Having long planned to act, Li Zhirui immediately sensed his intent, sneering coldly as a water light instantly appeared, effortlessly blocking the Demon Cultivator’s attack.

Tribulation Transcendence and Individual Immortal only seemed to differ by one minor realm, but in reality, it’s the dividing line between the Mortal Realm and Immortal Realm, the gap like Cloud and Mud.

However, the Demon Cultivator, although filled with hate, was not impetuous; after attacking, regardless of success, he promptly fled towards the distance.

He was banking on Li Zhirui opting to protect the Golden Bud Flower first, ignoring him.

Unfortunately, he underestimated Li Zhirui’s strength.

Before the Demon Cultivator flew far, a massive log descended from the heavens, striking him fiercely, embedding him into the ground.

With just one strike, it took half his life.

Not giving him a moment to breathe, swiftly shattering his heart and Spiritual Soul.

The three observers, including Li Yunran, had quite calm expressions, already accustomed to their Ancestor’s formidable power; not just a Tribulation Transcending Demon Cultivator, even an Individual Immortal Realm Demon Cultivator would be no match for their Ancestor.
