Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1800: Chapter 1369: The Deal

Despite the poor quality and the heavy pill poison of the four Immortal Pills, don’t forget that it’s the first time Li Zhirui successfully refined them, achieving such a high pill formation rate.

Of course, this one instance doesn’t mean much—it might have just been a stroke of luck. The actual pill formation rate requires multiple more refinements to conclude accurately.

Li Zhirui is not in a hurry to continue with alchemy; instead, he picks up an Enlightenment Immortal Pill, carefully studying it in his hand and inserting his Divine Sense into it. Upon detecting pill poison, he activates the Purification Principle in his palm to completely cleanse it.

About a quarter of an hour later, the Immortal Pill he held transformed from its dull, blotchy appearance into a top-grade Immortal Pill emitting a gentle jade luster, with distinct pill patterns.

But don’t think this was easy—just looking at the beads of sweat on Li Zhirui’s forehead shows that purifying pill poison from a Heavenly Immortal Rank Elixir is no simple task!

Yet it was all worth it!

Turning a low-grade, nearly worthless Immortal Pill into a top-grade one is a drastic transformation, not only eliminating the pill poison but also significantly enhancing its effectiveness by many times.

And all it cost was a quarter of an hour and the spirit he expended in the process.

After a short rest, he successively purified the other three Enlightenment Immortal Pills, elevating them all to top-grade.

Only then did he begin to absorb Spiritual Energy, fully recovering his condition before starting alchemy again.

Even though he had succeeded once, Li Zhirui still maintained a cautious heart, without a trace of pride or complacency.

This time, only two pills formed when the furnace completed the refinement, while the essence of the other Spiritual Objects became waste.

”It’s not bad; although the pill formation rate is lower, the quality has improved.” He was still quite satisfied with this.

In the following period, Li Zhirui consumed all the Spiritual Objects he had on hand, finally refining forty-seven Enlightenment Immortal Pills.

He reserved three of them, refining the best low-grade Immortal Pills without applying the law to purify the pill poison.

The reason for this was to trade these three Enlightenment Immortal Pills with the three forces of the Cave Abyss Sect.

At the same time, it was to demonstrate to them that although Li Zhirui had only recently broken through, he was already an Alchemy Master of the Heavenly Immortal Rank.

It’s known that the higher the realm, the fewer masters of various skills exist.

This is not only because each skill requires a massive investment of energy and effort, affecting cultivation and causing one’s own cultivation level to lag, but also because cultivation skills are profound and not simpler than cultivation itself.

Thus, every master of skills is highly respected, with Alchemy Masters being the most esteemed among them!

For instance, an Artifact Refiner can enhance the grade of their life-bound magic treasure with their realm, making them less crucial; a Talisman Maker can use more powerful Divine Powers and Laws; an Array Master’s formations cannot be fully utilized by others.

But Alchemists are different. The pills they refine aren’t bound by such restrictions and constraints—unless there’s an intrinsic clash in attributes, anyone can take any pill!

At most, if the pill quality is not high, pill poison will accumulate in the body, and if too much pill poison is present, it will affect one’s cultivation.

Also, taking too much of one pill can lead to drug resistance in the body, weakening the pill’s effects.

However, even then, pill poison can be slowly resolved through cultivation or directly dispelled by consuming some Spiritual Objects.

As for drug resistance? It generally doesn’t occur in high-level cultivators because there aren’t many high-grade pills available for them to consume.

It is precisely because of the universal applicability of pills that Alchemists possess a high status and extensive connections.

Returning to the matter at hand!

Therefore, Li Zhirui trading Enlightenment Immortal Pills with the three Heavenly Immortal powers of the Cave Abyss Sect was also a covert warning to them not to harbor any underhanded thoughts or to underestimate and look down upon the Li family simply because it only has one Heavenly Immortal.

In the entire Primal Spirit Realm, regardless of faction or race, there are probably fewer than five Alchemy Masters of the Heavenly Immortal Rank.

Once he voices his intent, many Heavenly Immortals would be willing to lend him a hand in teaching them a lesson, provided they pay a small price!

When Li Zhirui handed the Enlightenment Immortal Pills to Li Xianlang, he didn’t even need to speak. The clan leader understood his intention to intimidate those three Heavenly Immortal factions in the upcoming transaction.

After handling this matter, he returned to the Cave Mansion once again. However, this time, he did not continue to delve into Pill Recipes but began secluded cultivation.

Although he was also determined to transcend, he was not as overly cautious as Li Chengsheng or Li Chengshuo, who even dared not absorb nature’s spiritual energy, instead using stars to transform Chaotic Spiritual Energy.

In fact, Li Zhirui already had some ideas on how to clear his debts of nature’s cause and effect, thus allowing him to transcend without any attachments.

It’s just that he lacks strength and realm, and his mastery of the Purification Principle hasn’t reached perfection. Even if he could transcend now, he wouldn’t choose to do so, as it would not benefit him.

...

Time flies, and several periods quickly passed.

It was unclear whether the Cave Abyss Sect, Yumen He Family, and Xiaxian Sect had coordinated it, but they all came to Mount Wanxian at the same time.

Upon hearing this news, Li Xianlang smiled faintly, not worried at all that they would join forces to lower the price of the Li family’s Spiritual Objects.

Because the Li family, with its Eight Diagram Treasure Fruit and Enlightenment Immortal Pill, holds the upper hand!
