Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1629: Chapter 1283: Time (Part 2)

Therefore, the scope for development is limited, and they must constantly guard against Devil Beast attacks. Truly, it’s impossible to spare enough personnel to clear those Devil Beasts and explore new territories.

If we can’t manage it ourselves, let’s seek external assistance!

Li Xiuyuan has gathered young cultivators with certain strength from outside the clan, aiming to quickly solve the Devil Beast issue and expedite the development of these territories.

Of course, there are also some clan members who wish to gain experience included as well.

”Clan Leader, has something happened? Otherwise, why does the family keep increasing everyone’s monthly salary again and again?”

Among the numerous clan members, there are still a few clever ones.

Although they are unaware of the frequent occurrences in the Secret Realm, they can see from the family’s actions that it is a sign of something major happening.

”Don’t overthink it. You will be informed when the time is right, but for now, you just need to focus on cultivation and quickly enhance your cultivation level.”

Li Xiuyuan didn’t immediately disclose the truth to them, not for secrecy’s sake.

But the moment he speaks of it, their thoughts will undoubtedly be disturbed, which would just be wasting precious cultivation time, wouldn’t it?!

Be aware, there isn’t much time left now! Those clan members on the brink of breakthrough ought not and need not be distracted.

...

While family members are busy elevating their cultivation, Li Zhirui, despite just breaking through with no significant enhancement in cultivation, has not abandoned his daily routine cultivation.

Besides that, he spends more time comprehending the Pill Recipe for the Earth Immortal Rank.

And after all these years, he feels ready to attempt the concoction of a batch of Earth Immortal Realm Immortal Pills!

Li Zhirui didn’t rush to commence alchemy directly but began with a bath and incense ritual before summoning a jade cauldron engraved with complex, mysterious runes to introduce a flask of Earth Immortal Rank Spirit Water and slowly nurture it with his mana.

Subsequently, he retrieved one precious Spiritual Object after another from his Storage Magical Treasure and neatly placed them beside himself.

This series of steps aimed to calm his mental state and adjust his condition.

When Li Zhirui felt he was in optimal condition, he immediately summoned an Earth Immortal Rank Spiritual Medicine, infusing his Divine Sense into it to extract impurities and retain the purest essence, which was then placed into the jade cauldron for the Spirit Water to nurture and stimulate the medicinal properties.

Then, he accelerated his actions, with dozens of spiritual medicines simultaneously ascending, extracting essences of varied colors and letting them fly into the Spirit Water to stimulate medicinal properties and reduce dissipation of spirituality.

Before the jade cauldron, Li Zhirui sat cross-legged, eyes slightly closed, hands rapidly flitting around as he executed an intricate spell, causing the Spirit Water inside to slowly rotate and blend the essences of spiritual medicines gradually.

As time passed, sweat began to drip from his brow, as though enduring immense pressure, when the essences were on the verge of complete fusion, suddenly, an essence twitched.

Thunk——

Instantly, all spiritual medicine essences scattered, but they were no longer pure, now tainted with other essences.

Li Zhirui slowly opened his eyes, calmly observing the cauldron of failed pills.

He felt no frustration, for this was his first attempt at concocting Earth Immortal Rank Immortal Pills; failure was entirely normal, whereas success would be rather peculiar.

He gathered his mood, stored the Spiritual Liquid within the jade cauldron appropriately; it served as excellent fertilizer for Spirit Fields, could nurture Spirit Beasts, and was usable as a medicinal bath for body cultivation.

After all, this Spiritual Liquid, comprising essences of various precious Spiritual Objects mixed with Spirit Water, was rich in Spiritual Energy.

However, this Spiritual Energy was fierce and aggressive, demanding a powerful physical body to withstand it.

Though presently, neither the Li family lacked Earth Immortal Rank Spirit Beasts nor possessed body cultivators in the Earth Immortal Realm, so it’s only usable for irrigating Spirit Fields.

Concerning storage? Its stable internal structure had been destroyed, making long-term preservation of Spiritual Energy impossible.

Upon reviewing, identifying the reasons for alchemy failure, Li Zhirui took the second set of materials and commenced alchemy again.

Yet the result was still failure!

The third set...

The fourth set...

The fifth set...

All ended in failure!

”Whew——”

Li Zhirui exhaled a breath of turbid air; he now had only three sets of materials left!

If still unsuccessful, he could only wait several years or use Spirit Stones to accelerate Spiritual Medicine growth.

Refine the essences, nurture and preserve, enhance medicinal properties...

Each step, Li Zhirui completed flawlessly, smoothly reaching the crucial step of essence fusion!

Various spells danced in his hands; under his control, the essences slowly merged, one, two... until the final essence successfully integrated!

But this is far from the end.

Li Zhirui still needed to perfectly fuse all medicinal properties, ultimately condensing them into pills.

This was an extremely intricate step, requiring utmost attention; Spirit Light flickered within the cauldron, Spiritual Energy fluctuations became increasingly intense like a volcano poised to erupt.

Despite beads of sweat covering his forehead during this time, he remained unfazed, utterly focused on fusing the medicinal properties.

As time went by, a rich pill fragrance emanated from the jade cauldron.

When the medicinal properties fully fused, Li Zhirui’s spell suddenly changed, and he murmured, ”Consolidate!”

Nearby Spiritual Energy, Spirit Water’s Spiritual Energy all poured into the essence cluster, as if imbuing it with a soul.

”Divide!”

With another spell change, the enormous essence cluster scattered in an instant, materializing into round Immortal Pills, suspended within the Spirit Water.

”Release!”

The cauldron lid suddenly opened, as the Immortal Tao pills flew out, landing into the jade bottles Li Zhirui had prepared.

”Five successful pills, three subpar pills, two waste pills.”

The so-called subpar pills had insufficient medicinal properties, were consumable but would yield inferior effects.

As for waste pills, containing a substantial amount of Pill Poison, they were still consumable but provided extremely poor effects and were detrimental to one’s self.

Regarding this outcome, Li Zhirui was greatly pleased. Understandably, this marked his first success in concocting Earth Immortal Rank Immortal Pills, achieving a fifty percent yield of successful pills!

Moreover, among these five successful pills, two were mid-grade!

As for the other five Immortal Pills, he couldn’t restore medicinal properties for the subpar pills but could utilize the waste pills.

The Purification Principle Li Zhirui mastered could purify Pill Poison from waste pills, thus converting them into usable subpar pills.

If it were low-rank pills, he wouldn’t bother with such an elaborate process, wasting both time and extra effort.

Yet these were Earth Immortal Rank Immortal Pills! With formidable costs, even for Li Zhirui possessing the Mysterious Space, wastage was unadvisable.

Holding back from immediate action for the remaining two sets of materials, he stored them and left the Alchemy Room.

He had been engaged in alchemy continuously for days; although having rested during intervals, he still felt exhausted, intending to take a proper rest while summarizing his success.

...

Half a month later, the remaining two sets of materials were also transformed into Immortal Pills.

Finally, Li Zhirui possessed a total of sixteen successful pills, and fourteen subpar pills.

And with these Immortal Pills, his mana was set for rapid growth!

Upon consuming and refining one Immortal Pill, he couldn’t help but sigh, ”Just this one Immortal Pill equals months of my breathing exercises.”

Having crafted the mana-augmenting Immortal Pills, Li Zhirui began concocting Healing Elixirs!

In some respects, these were even more crucial.

After all, the two realms’ war approaches swiftly, necessitating the preparation of more Life-saving Spiritual Objects like these.

Not just him, but the Li family and all forces aware of the situation started preparing Spiritual Objects.

Because less than two hundred years remain before the war commences!

To mortals, this time span feels exceedingly long, akin to multiple generations’ lifespans, but to those with Great Ability, it is merely a moment.

Possibly due to already concocting Earth Immortal Rank Immortal Pills, Earth Immortal Rank Healing Elixirs succeeded quickly after a few failures!

And meanwhile, Li Zhixuan, who roamed The Void for hundreds of years, returned to the Primal Spirit Realm.
