Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1809: Chapter 1373: Pending Modification_2

Li Liangxiang shook his head and said, ”I know, Great Elder, you’re looking out for everyone, but doing so might instead provoke many hot-blooded clan members into a rebellious mindset. At that point, it’s not just about concealing identities; someone might even come over to challenge us.”

”I think the Clan Leader makes a point. It’s enough to remind the clan members of this issue, and we don’t need to get overly involved.”

Another Elder spoke up, ”Right, if the clan steps in, it will surely lose prestige in the eyes of some clan members!”

Facing almost everyone’s opposition, the Great Elder could only choose to give up, but this incident severely undermined his authority.

Upon leaving the grand hall, his entire spirit seemed much more dejected.

Li Liangxiang’s eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp light flashed through them, and the man appeared like a sword drawn from its sheath, sharp and fierce. But in the next moment, he restrained his demeanor, returning to the familiar and amiable image everyone remembered, as if the earlier scene was just an illusion.

”Damn it!”

After returning to his cave mansion, the Great Elder angrily slammed his hand on the table beside him, a high-quality wooden table made of spirit wood, which instantly shattered into pieces.

He had been outmaneuvered by that young rascal Li Liangxiang and suffered a great loss of face!

”Alas!”

After a while, he sighed with worry and helplessness, knowing in his heart that he couldn’t compete with him!

After all, the difference in status between them was too significant. The clan leader had immense power, while he was merely an elder. Even as the Great Elder, he could only act on orders.

But he felt indignant in his heart. If a junior cannot lead the clan to better development, they might as well step down and allow a worthy successor!

Unfortunately, this challenge of his had caused him to lose his prestige, making it difficult for him to become the clan leader even if he managed to oust Li Liangxiang in the future.

The story branches and each part speaks for itself.

In The Void.

Li Zhirui sat cross-legged in the chaos, forming intricate and complex spells with his hands. Soon, a pristine and flawless white lotus bloomed before him, from which emerged a small jade figure, its indistinct features seemingly resembling him.

This was actually a special magical treasure he had purchased at a high price. After refining it with his own spirit, the jade figure’s body would develop meridians and a dantian identical to his own, making it an excellent assistant for deducing methods.

And now, he was using the jade figure to test whether the methods he had deduced over centuries had succeeded, or more accurately, whether they had achieved the goals he desired!

As the last spell was cast, the method began operating within the jade figure. One could clearly see streams of spirit light flowing through its meridians, eventually erupting entirely to envelop its body.

It was like a cocoon accumulating power, waiting to break out and become a splendid butterfly.

At this point, Li Zhirui could not help but feel tense, as the success or failure of centuries hung in the balance!

As time passed, the jade figure began absorbing a vast amount of chaotic spiritual energy, and the light cocoon grew larger and more unstable, its aura fluctuating intensely, sometimes rising sharply, sometimes falling low.

This rollercoaster of changes made his emotions similarly tumultuous.

After a long time, the light cocoon ceased all movement and lay quietly there.

Crack—

With a cracking sound, a small white hand emerged. Slowly, a perfectly intact small jade figure appeared in Li Zhirui’s sight.

”Failed?”

But he didn’t feel elated, as he had not achieved the purpose for which he created this cultivation technique!

In other words, the experiment had failed this time.

”Where exactly did it go wrong?” Li Zhirui frowned, earnestly recalling the entire spellcasting process, but no matter how he looked, he couldn’t find where the mistake lay.

He also didn’t expect to get stuck right at the first step!

For the time being, he didn’t know where to begin.

With no choice, since he couldn’t identify the problem in one attempt, he decided to repeat the process multiple times until he could spot the issue.

Thus, in the many years that followed, Li Zhirui repeatedly cast secret techniques on the jade figure, attempting to observe its condition.

After an unknown number of times casting the secret technique, he finally discovered the problem one day!

He originally thought his created secret technique was quite refined, but when he actually validated it, he realized how exceedingly wrong it was!

And the errors weren’t just a little; they required modification one by one, a task whose time consumption was unknown.

But he had no choice, as Li Zhirui placed great importance on the method currently being perfected, which would also have a substantial impact on his future cultivation path!

In the blink of an eye, several more decades passed.

Li Zhirui eventually resolved all the problems he previously discovered, then restarted using the jade figure to verify whether the method could achieve the scenario he had envisioned.

A flurry of spells was cast, the jade figure cocooned, commencing the absorption of a vast amount of chaotic spiritual energy.

After some time, it emerged from the cocoon.

”Huh?!”

Li Zhirui immediately noticed that the quality of the jade figure seemed to have improved, and, excitedly observing, he found additional runes on its surface, albeit unfinished.

”This can only be considered a half success...”

He shook his head in disappointment. He had thought the method was entirely complete, but it seemed only halfway done.

In Li Zhirui’s conception, casting this method would enhance his aptitude by absorbing a large amount of chaotic spiritual energy!

And this enhancement wasn’t an ordinary improvement but rather the mythical body of a Chaos God Demon from legends in his past life!

However, he was merely an ordinary person in his previous life, and the Chaos God Demon’s body was just a legendary constitution. What it was exactly, and how it worked, he had no idea.

He was entirely groping in The Void by relying on a title, which was also why he initially chose to retreat in The Void. Since it was a Chaos God Demon Dao Body, how could it not require chaotic spiritual energy?

Speaking of it, under such circumstances, achieving this method’s deduction was already an extraordinary feat for Li Zhirui.
