Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1501: Chapter 1219: Life and Death_2

For instance, in the Divinity Transformation Realm’s minor competition, the first place winner directly receives a top-grade Returning Void Treasure Pill, a sixth rank top-grade Magic Artifact, and three sixth rank Earth Escape Talismans.

It’s worth noting that the Returning Void Treasure Pill can increase the probability of breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm, similar in nature to the Foundation Establishment Pill, but infinitely more valuable!

The rewards of the major competition go without saying, luxurious to the point of being utterly captivating.

Internally, the Li family is in constant dispute due to these two matters, with many family members accustomed to receiving extra allowances finding it hard to accept, hoping the family will retract the decision.

”Please, family, do not cancel the allowance.” Nearly a thousand family members gathered outside the family’s main hall, shouting loudly.

Li Guangjie led a group of Elders and slowly walked out, saying sternly, ”This matter was personally instructed by Ancestor Rui, with strict orders to carry it out. What? Do you dare to defy the command?!”

”This decision is inappropriate. The importance of the allowances in achieving cultivation at our current age is evident. Without them, our cultivation speed will certainly slow down, adversely affecting the overall strength of the family!” The person leading the protest stood forth with determination.

”We ask the Clan Leader to repeal the order!”

Other family members chimed in, but their voices grew significantly softer.

”Hmph!”

Li Guangjie snorted coldly and said, ”Originally considering your dignity, I refrained from saying more, but since you are dissatisfied, don’t blame me for being merciless!”

”How many among you truly dedicate yourselves to cultivation using the allowance? And how many squander it on indulgences like eating, drinking, and leisure? Do you think we are unaware of this?!”

Speaking to this point, Li Guangjie released his full majesty, causing the atmosphere to freeze. Most family members bowed their heads in shame, and some trembled uncontrollably.

Seeing this, a flash of realization struck him, and his expression of half sincerity turned extremely dark and unsightly. With such character, how can they shoulder the burden of Da Liang in the future?!

Before they grow, they might perish under the Thunder Tribulation, wasting not only their lives but also the vast amount of Spiritual Objects consumed over the years.

Fortunately, Ancestor Rui detected the issue, or else the family’s development would appear flourishing, but in reality, it would be rotten at its core.

”Any more objections?”

The family members dared not speak further.

”Then go home and reflect on how many mistakes you have made over these years!”

Li Guangjie sighed inwardly, hoping this move would awaken them in time, or else it would truly be a waste.

”I didn’t expect the family members to be so disappointing, alas!” An Elder couldn’t help but sigh.

To be honest, many among them previously thought Li Zhirui was making a fuss over nothing, but now it seemed their own judgment was insufficient, failing to notice the existing issues.

”Indeed, thankfully it’s not too late now, and there’s time to improve and correct the course.”

”Slow and steady. This matter cannot be rushed.”

For a long time afterwards, the Li family was busy dealing with this issue.

Seeing that this matter was now on track, Li Zhirui ceased his covert observations and returned to his Cave Mansion to continue secluded cultivation.

Even though he possessed top-grade Immortal Pills that could accelerate cultivation, breaking further in the Realm of Human Immortality is certainly not something achievable in just a few centuries.

Moreover, besides the need to increase Mana, the Realm must also be elevated, which is even more challenging than accumulating Mana.

Therefore, Li Zhirui had long prepared himself mentally, not expecting a quick breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Human Immortal; everything requires gradual accumulation.

On the other side, Jiang Fengwu, who was training outside with the Spirit Beasts Feng Peng, Dragon Carp, and Qingniao, finally returned to Mount Wanxian.

Their return aimed to provide a favorable environment for Feng Peng, Dragon Carp, and Qingniao to undergo a secluded breakthrough.

Because if they were to break through outside, Jiang Fengwu really couldn’t afford enough Spirit Stones to rent seclusion Cave Mansions for them. After all, though they broke through the Bloodline Shackles, it’s uncertain how long it will take to transcend the Tribulation.

”Fengwu, didn’t you advise Feng Peng and Dragon Carp?” Qingniao couldn’t resist asking as she watched the two excitedly enter the Cave Mansion.

”Alas! I couldn’t persuade them. After years without breakthrough, and seeing many younger generations achieve the Individual Immortal Realm before them, their hearts have become overly anxious.”

”If they fail to transcend the Tribulation, then...”

Jiang Fengwu was deeply worried. However, she couldn’t just bind them to prevent their secluded cultivation, could she?

”Now we can only believe in them and pray for them.”

As for the matter of the Thunder Tribulation, outsiders cannot intervene, leaving her and the others helpless.

Silent, Qingniao said, ”I will also enter seclusion. Let’s hope then I’ll hear good news.”

Unlike Feng Peng and Dragon Carp, upon entering the Cave Mansion, she did not rush into cultivation but adjusted her state, slowly immersing herself in the practice.

...

One day, when Li Zhirui came out to the storehouse to exchange for some Spiritual Objects, he found out that Jiang Fengwu and the others had returned.

So, he changed his plan, after acquiring the Spiritual Objects, considering if he could meet Jiang Fengwu, and incidentally give Feng Peng and the other Spirit Beasts a few bottles of Precious Pills for Mana recovery.

”Zhirui, thank you.”

Originally thinking that Jiang Fengwu was also in secluded cultivation, he was surprised she emerged quickly.

Moreover, Li Zhirui noticed a tinge of worry between her brows.

”What’s the matter? Is it concern over Feng Peng and their Tribulation? Don’t worry; with their years of accumulation, barring unforeseen issues, they should be fine.”

”It’s not the Mana issue that worries me, but their mindset! Feng Peng and Dragon Carp are too eager and wish to break through immediately. I’m afraid they might have problems at the critical moment.”

”Why didn’t you persuade them more before?” Upon hearing this, Li Zhirui couldn’t help but frown.

This mindset is extremely important, especially regarding the upcoming Heart Demon Tribulation. If one’s mindset is insufficient, it becomes a huge flaw that the Heart Demon will surely exploit.

If careless, one’s entire cultivation might end up as an offering to the Heart Demon!

”I couldn’t persuade them; they insisted on securing seclusion to cultivate.”

”Now, there’s only one option, directly intervening. Even if they get hurt, they cannot be allowed to perish under the Thunder Tribulation.”

Li Zhirui looked at Jiang Fengwu and said, ”This decision ultimately rests with you.”

It’s up to her whether she can resolve to act.

”You’re right!”

Jiang Fengwu couldn’t just watch them perish to the Thunder Tribulation.

Yet unexpectedly, her actions were still a step too late!

Dragon Carp seized the chance and broke through first!

Above Mount Wanxian, tribulation clouds had already gathered densely, pressing down like mountains.

”Too late!”

Just a step late. Li Zhirui sighed inwardly, hoping Dragon Carp’s breakthrough would proceed smoothly without mishaps, or else the sorrow Jiang Fengwu would experience would be immeasurable.

Rumble–

Soon, the first massive Tribulation Thunder struck down, and Dragon Carp barely handled it, but as the Thunder grew more intense, she struggled increasingly.

This sight rendered Li Zhirui utterly speechless.

Initially believing the Heart Demon Tribulation to be the greatest obstacle, it now seemed unclear whether she could withstand the nine levels of Tribulation Thunder.

Each subsequent Thunder grew stronger, and Dragon Carp’s resistance became more arduous, showing many wounds, suggesting exhaustion.

The regret on Dragon Carp’s face grew more profound, blaming herself for not heeding Jiang Fengwu’s advice and hastily breaking through.

Consequently, Dragon Carp’s Mental State worsened, her Dao Heart beginning to crack!

Originally, her chance of surviving this Tribulation was slim; now it’s even slimmer.

”Fengwu, why don’t you go urge Feng Peng to leave seclusion, cautioning her against rash actions, to prevent the same sudden occurrence.” Li Zhirui intended to send her away to spare her from witnessing Dragon Carp’s demise under the Thunder Tribulation.

Jiang Fengwu remained silent for a long while. She finally replied with a hoarse voice, ”No need, it’s still better to see Dragon Carp one last time.”

At this moment, she was filled with regret. Had she been more resolute, even directly intervening to confine them, this scene might not have unfolded.
