Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1583: Chapter 1260: Receiving the Talisman (Not Yet Finished)_2

“Do not hold out too much hope for me.” Li Zhirui opened his mouth to pour some cold water, cooling down the atmosphere.

“No! Senior, you don’t understand; Ancestor Lingxi’s predictions have never been wrong!” As he spoke, his face was full of heartfelt respect and admiration.

Not only him, but the cultivators behind him also had similar reactions.

Li Zhirui’s eyes narrowed slightly; it seems Ancestor Lingxi holds an extremely high status in the Great Zhou Mountain Sect, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so revered.

Of course, it’s not impossible that he might be a charlatan who has disguised himself very well and fooled everyone.

If that’s the case, then it’s impressive in a different way.

A few people led the way in front, and only then did they remember to introduce themselves; the leading Individual Immortal was named Zhao Honglin.

Since there wasn’t much interaction with the remaining few people, and they probably wouldn’t have much contact in the future, Li Zhirui couldn’t be bothered to remember their names.

After flying for about three hours, the group stopped before a towering mountain that reached into the clouds.

The reason for flying so long was that Li Zhirui could not exert his full strength, and to save mana, the Spirit Boat was controlled by them.

“Senior, this is the highest peak within the boundaries of the dynasty, where the mountain gate of the Great Zhou Mountain Sect is located,” Zhao Honglin introduced, with barely concealed pride in his voice.

“Let’s go.”

Li Zhirui wasn’t feeling so much; he interrupted their emotions as he spoke, and after his tone returned to normal, he said, “I want to meet Senior Lingxi; there are some questions I want answers to.”

“This Fellow Daoist, please follow me; Ancestor Lingxi has been waiting for quite some time.”

Li Zhirui’s heart skipped a beat; isn’t this prediction method too exaggerated?!

Bear in mind, his situation was predicted by a Heavenly Immortal before, but ultimately nothing was revealed, so how did this Ancestor Lingxi know?

Soon, he saw an elderly man with a weak aura, looking no different from a mortal.

Before the old man, there was a chess game set up.

——

“Inside the Divine of Human Dao, there is a talisman composed of Human Dao Fortune, Human Dao Dragon Energy, and Divine Position. Their promotion doesn’t rely only on themselves; they also need permission from the Human Dao court.”

After a pause, the cultivator continued, “We are the same.”

“The reason we are not suppressed by the Human Dao Law Net is because there is such a talisman in the Dantian. According to the grade of the talisman, corresponding strength can be exerted; otherwise, even if you accumulate a lot of mana, exceeding the talisman’s grade will result in suppression from the Human Dao Law Net!”

Receiving a talisman?

Li Zhirui suddenly thought of this term, but it was very different from his impression; the court’s control was extremely strong!

Moreover, maybe there are backups left in the talisman to control these cultivators at any time.

In this way, there’s no need to worry about these cultivators rebelling, while also gaining a significant controllable force.

Although Li Zhirui felt these cultivators were somewhat pitiable, completely losing their freedom and becoming lapdogs cultivated by the Great Zhou Dynasty, he didn’t have any sympathies.

After all, he doesn’t have the confidence nor the power to act freely within the Great Zhou Dynasty, let alone rescue them.

Li Zhirui was neither that great nor that strong.

Thus, his expression did not change much, calmly accepting the news.

“Senior, I have a request!” The cultivator hurried to call out upon seeing him about to leave.

“To help remove the talisman inside your body? Or to bring you out of the Great Zhou Dynasty? Whatever the case, I won’t agree.” Li Zhirui didn’t wait for the other to speak,

“No, that’s not it! Please hear me out, senior.”

The cultivator quickly explained in fear of angering him, saying, “Senior, you may not know, among us cultivators, there are quite a few unwilling to settle for this, so we’ve secretly formed an organization, an organization intending to overthrow the Great Zhou Dynasty! We want to invite you to join.”

“With your strength, senior, if you’re willing to join, you can definitely make our organization even stronger!”

Having said this, he looked at Li Zhirui with hopeful eyes.

“I’m just passing through, I won’t stay long.” Li Zhirui refused without hesitation; there’s no need to get involved in this mess.

Just observing the strength of these cultivators shows they cannot accomplish anything!

If an endeavor is destined to fail, why would he join? It would only waste time and energy, with no benefits.

Moreover, if they did overthrow the Great Zhou Dynasty, who would restrain the Cave Abyss Sect? Making it focus most of its energy on the south and east, without spare energy concerning the Li family.

“We absolutely won’t let you return empty-handed! The treasury of the Great Zhou Mountain Sect has many precious Earth Immortal-level Spiritual Items. If you, senior, are willing to contribute, you can first choose one item, and later exchange more high-level Spiritual Objects based on your level of contribution.”

The cultivator offered an excellent condition, hoping Li Zhirui could agree.

“I have a question…”

Li Zhirui asked with interest, “Why are you so persistent in inviting me to join your organization? And with your cultivation, you shouldn’t have the authority to offer such generous terms; why should I believe these conditions can be exchanged, and not just empty promises?”

He was genuinely curious about why they were fixated on him, as if he would be the key to freeing these cultivators from the shackles of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

“To be honest with senior, when we set out, the sect’s ancestor suddenly appeared and instructed us to, by any means necessary, recruit the first outsider cultivator we met into our organization, regardless of the cost.”

The cultivator had considered hiding the truth, but ultimately, he honestly told the truth.

Li Zhirui’s expression did not change but he was deeply shocked inside; he possessed space that could conceal his secrets and identity, yet this was the first time hearing about such a situation.

“Did your ancestor leave any message about me?” He needed to leave quickly.

“He only said that line and instructed us to leave the mountain gate quickly, follow the initial route, and happen upon you along the way to invite you to join.” The cultivator replied sincerely.

Li Zhirui said nothing, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

The advantage is an immediately obtainable Earth Immortal-level Spiritual Item, with more to follow; the downside is the high likelihood of failure; their capability? They dare think of destroying the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Anyway, he did not look kindly on this overly unrealistic organization.

But finally, Li Zhirui changed his mind and chose to join this organization!

He changed his mind because he wanted to meet the ancestor who predicted his trace, wondering how the other could track his movements.

Another reason was the temptation of the Spiritual Objects; Earth Immortal-level Spiritual Items are not easy to acquire—how generous they are, offering an item from the start with more to follow for exchange.

But from this point, it can also be seen, the Great Zhou Dynasty still values the Great Zhou Mountain Sect; otherwise, it wouldn’t provide so many Spiritual Objects.

“Great! With your joining, senior, we can surely remove the shackles the Great Zhou has placed on us and overthrow the dynasty!” The cultivator shouted excitedly in a low voice.

“Do not hold out too much hope for me.” Li Zhirui opened his mouth to pour some cold water, cooling down the atmosphere.

“No! Senior, you don’t understand; Ancestor Lingxi’s predictions have never been wrong!” As he spoke, his face was full of heartfelt respect and admiration.

Not only him, but the cultivators behind him also had similar reactions.

Li Zhirui’s eyes narrowed slightly; it seems Ancestor Lingxi holds an extremely high status in the Great Zhou Mountain Sect, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so revered.
