Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1550: Chapter 1244: The Black Hand

Deathly silence is the most distinct feature at the bottom of the Sea Eye!

Therefore, when the few Heavenly Immortal Water Demons discovered a small fragment of a magic artifact, they became extremely angry, for it was evident that a living being had infiltrated the area.

Even under the close protection of a Heavenly Immortal Water Demon, Li Zhirui still felt somewhat uncomfortable, as if a gigantic stone was pressing on his chest, making breathing difficult.

“Young friend, are you alright?” Ao Hui noticed his abnormal condition and asked with concern.

This is crucial for repairing the crack. If he encounters issues, things could get troublesome.

“Rest assured, elder, it’s nothing serious.”

“If you can’t bear it, just speak up. We will shield you from the deep sea pressure.” The Sea Clan dispatched so many Heavenly Immortals this time mainly to protect Li Zhirui, allowing for no mishaps!

Another reason is to guard against the mysterious figure who had intervened earlier.

“Alright.” Faced with the oppression of heaven and earth, Li Zhirui naturally wouldn’t try to be brave and agreed without hesitation.

“It’s right here!”

A Heavenly Immortal who had visited earlier suddenly changed expression, saying in surprise, “No way! It’s been less than a month, how has the crack expanded so much?”

Initially, the crack was very small, no longer than a foot, no wider than two feet, but now it’s expanded more than twofold! From unnoticeable to now impossible to ignore!

“Quickly, let’s not delay any longer!” Ao Hui’s expression changed dramatically, and he said hurriedly, “Young friend, please start promptly.”

Hearing this, Li Zhirui quickly stepped forward, with his hands enveloped in a layer of shimmering white light that he inserted into the crack, moments later his brow furrowed.

“What’s the matter?”

“It’s more troublesome than I imagined.” Li Zhirui said with a grave expression, “The various spiritual objects prepared earlier may be insufficient now.”

“We made thorough preparations before coming here, bringing several times more spiritual objects than anticipated, how can it be not enough?”

“Because the larger the crack, the greater the spread of evil filth; it’s not a simple calculation, besides I haven’t prepared enough Immortal Pills for restoring and nourishing spirit.”

In fact, he was lying about the latter part.

Li Zhirui had plenty of Immortal Pills for restoring and nourishing spirit; if he only had a dozen top-grade Immortal Pills, that would be one thing, but almost all he had were top-grade, which was too conspicuous, eye-catching, and impossible to take out in front of so many Water Demons.

Even the wealthy Sea Clan, with their vast resources across the Four Seas, couldn’t supply their direct lineage Human Immortal Water Demon with so many top-grade Immortal Pills.

Moreover, he needed to hide his capabilities! He couldn’t reveal his vast mana far exceeding that of cultivators of the same rank, at most only showing his Life-bound Magic Treasure, the Thousand Spirits, but he would never expose the mana stored in the Minor Thousand World.

Ao Hui made a swift decision and said, “Gui He, Jin Kang, you two return to the clan immediately, instruct the Turtle Minister to mobilize spiritual objects, and prepare a large quantity of Immortal Pills.”

“Understood.” The two Heavenly Immortals called upon didn’t hesitate and turned away promptly.

Seeing this, Li Zhirui kept silent, and with a thought, a Purifying White Lotus materialized beneath him as he sat beside the crack.

With a wave of his right hand, thousands of lotus seeds appeared before him, wrapped in pure, brilliant white light, sticking above the crack close to him.

In the next moment, the white light expanded, and the originally dark, pitch-black bottom of the Sea Eye suddenly became bright.

Soon, the lotus seeds began to sprout, growing at a rapid pace, and about an hour later, they had grown into small lotuses, floating in the stream formed by the white light.

Seeing this, Li Zhirui summoned his Life-bound Magic Treasure Thousand Spirits, letting the mana stored within flow into the stream formed by the Purification Principle, providing ample nourishment for the growth and strengthening of the white lotus.

He himself didn’t idle and continued to concentrate the Purification Principle from between heaven and earth, gathering it before him.

Ao Hui and other Heavenly Immortals quietly watched, a common look of admiration flickering in their eyes.

With their expertise, they could clearly see that Li Zhirui’s grasp of the Laws was nearly at the peak of the Realm of Human Immortality, something not just any Human Immortal could achieve.

Ao Hui contemplated further and recalled the Dragon Tribe juniors of the same era with Li Zhirui, surprised to find none of the younger ones did better than him in this regard!

Only three or four young ones managed to hold their own against him.

Remembering that Li Zhirui comes from a small family he had nurtured, Ao Hui felt even more frustrated.

‘Such a figure would be extremely rare among the human race, wouldn’t they?’

Otherwise, the human race would have long suppressed other races more ruthlessly, rather than the current relatively relaxed state.

Li Zhirui had no idea that his efforts were already seen through, rendering his plan to hide his strengths completely void.

Speaking of which!

Those thousands of lotus seeds, painstakingly cultivated by Li Zhirui, finally ushered in their blossoming moment.

In an instant, countless white lotus blooms, the Purification Principle soared dozens of times, yet he exerted all his strength to integrate it into the short stream, rather than purifying the surrounding evil filth.

In doing so, the stream transformed into a small river, capable of nurturing more Purifying White Lotus.

Li Zhirui struck the lotus sea with his hand, countless white rays fell from the lotus pods, dropping into the small river, beginning a new cycle of cultivation.

The reason he didn’t directly plant Purifying White Lotus within the evil filth above the crack was that the lotus seeds were too low in grade, and too few in number, unable to withstand the massive impact of evil filth.
