Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1628: Chapter 1283: Time

The news that the Li family discovered two Secret Realms in succession not only made countless Loose Cultivators envious but also caused jealousy among the surrounding forces.

But aside from the Cave Abyss Sect, given the current strength of the Li family, they are not afraid of facing other forces, as they cannot inflict any harm on the Li family.

There are also many hopefuls eager to see the Cave Abyss Sect take action, though they may be disappointed.

Although the Cave Abyss Sect is quite envious and has considered competing for the Secret Realm at the border, just as they were hesitating, good news came from the south: a Secret Realm appeared for the first time!

And before their joy could dissipate, two more Secret Realms emerged in succession. Although the grades of these three Secret Realms were relatively low, only Sixth and Seventh Order, their quantity completely made up for this shortcoming.

The Loose Cultivators of Cave Abyss State were very excited because every newly appearing Secret Realm represents a significant opportunity for them.

Previously, they envied the Loose Cultivators of Shanhai State, but now the tables have turned completely!

The surprises didn’t stop there; in the following period, Secret Realms throughout the Primal Spirit Realm seemed to erupt like a geyser, continuously appearing and attracting one creature after another.

Some among them reaped great rewards, leaving the Secret Realm with a large number of Spiritual Objects and advanced cultivation; some gained little, emerging with scars all over their bodies and faces full of disappointment and unwillingness; others entered and never came out again, perhaps perished at the hands of Devil Beasts or Cultivators.

The entire Primal Spirit Realm plunged into a frenzy of cultivation, with countless creatures trying every means to enhance their cultivation using Spiritual Objects obtained from Secret Realms.

It can be said that the originally rare Thunder Tribulation in Primordial Spirit Land is now seen almost daily!

Moreover, as long as the strength is not too weak, without too much entanglement in cause, effect, or Karmic Force, one can overcome the Thunder Tribulation.

This series of strange occurrences likely went unnoticed by the Loose Cultivators who rarely leave a State Domain, but to various forces, it’s almost a constant reminder of the impending outbreak of a world-shaking event!

And most forces can guess what it is: the two-realm war that will occur in several hundred years!

...

”It seems, even the Heavenly Dao is doing its utmost, putting forth its deep assets to enhance the strength of countless creatures in the Primal Spirit Realm, hoping for victory in the two-realm war.”

Li Zhirui sighed after perusing the various pieces of information collected by the family.

”Indeed, it seems the family needs to be a bit more aggressive as well.” Li Xiuyuan nodded and then outlined his plan.

The content was actually quite simple, merely continuing to improve the treatment of family members and provide more resources, tilting resources slightly toward those with better qualifications or nearing breakthroughs.

After all, with only three or four hundred years left, time is scarce, and efforts must be made to enhance the family’s strength.

Li Zhirui did not feel anything uncomfortable or bad about this; this is indeed a cruel world, and the Li family is already warm enough.

If it were other forces, especially the Sect, those miscellaneous Disciples and Outer Sect Disciples would probably be abandoned at the start.

But this approach has a hidden danger...

”I do not oppose what you’re doing; the family has sufficient resources to fulfill your ideas after gaining two Secret Realms, but!”

Pausing, Li Zhirui looked seriously at Li Xiuyuan and asked: ”But have you considered how to handle the family’s monthly stipend after the war is over?”

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult from extravagance to frugality!

Family members have enjoyed abundant resources for so many years, and in the future, no matter how reduced, they will have opinions, even strong opposition.

Although from the beginning, the family has declared that these Spiritual Objects are just temporary rewards, habits are terrifying!

Once something persists for hundreds of years, everyone will consider it rightfully so.

After Li Zhirui posed this question, Li Xiuyuan did not hesitate; he seemed to have considered it long ago and had an answer, immediately saying: ”I will take responsibility and let all the family’s anger vent on me!”

”You...”

Li Zhirui wanted to say something, but seeing his determined expression, those words stuck in his throat, waving his hand, he said: ”There’s no need to be so extreme, you can go back, future matters will be resolved in the future.”

”Then I will take my leave first.”

Li Xiuyuan bowed and departed without changing his expression.

”I never expected Xiu Yuan, who seems so steady and mature, to be inwardly so passionate, even somewhat radical...”

Shaking his head, he made no more conjectures, problems several hundred years from now need not be solved now.

After Li Xiuyuan left, he issued two announcements.

The first was as he said to Li Zhirui, further improving the treatment of family members, citing danger response requiring stronger family power.

The second was to gather a large number of family members, affiliate forces’ Cultivators, and Loose Cultivators to develop those two Secret Realms!

The Seventh-Order Secret Realm named Heavenly Light Secret Realm has been massively developed by the Li family since its emergence, yet the area’s vastness still leaves part undeveloped.

Because the Li family simply could not spare the manpower, they had to offer part of the benefits to outsiders for help in development.

Meanwhile, the Eighth-Order Secret Realm, named Heavenly Pond Secret Realm, still harbors many Devil Beasts that haven’t been cleared out yet.
