Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2031 1484: Creation (2)

This approach also allowed them to obtain the pills smoothly.

The remaining Precious Pill then fell into the hands of the Cave Abyss Sect.

Afterwards, the Li family brought out many rare spiritual objects. Even though most cultivators had no chance to participate, they didnʼt feel displeased; instead, they believed their horizons were broadened and saw many spiritual objects theyʼd never heard of before.

Of course, the Li family had given thorough consideration to the matter, taking care of cultivators from every realm.

Thus, as time passed, the rank of spiritual items gradually decreased, yet each was a rare treasure of its grade.

Especially with the appearance of three Human Immortal Enlightenment Pills, all the Individual Immortals became feverishly enthusiastic, believing that if they obtained the pill, they would surely advance further and achieve the Realm of Human Immortality!

So they truly went all out, bidding with reckless abandon—making this part of the auction even more heated than before.

”The auction ends here. Thanks to all the venerable elders and Fellow Daoists for honoring us with your presence. Please enjoy a cup of spiritual tea to soothe your physical and spiritual exhaustion.”

With the auctioneerʼs words, cups of spiritual tea were carried up by attendants.

Taking a sip, one felt all the fatigue and weariness dissipate, the whole body becoming much lighter and more refreshed.

At the same time, the doors of the auction hall opened, allowing everyone to leave at their leisure.

...

While the auction was being fervently held, the stalls outside were just as lively, if not more so.

Compared to the auction, the spiritual objects at the stalls had no guarantee; their authenticity was hard to discern, truly testing each personʼs experience and insight.

You might spend a fortune on a spiritual object only to discover itʼs trash; or you might receive a small trinket that turns out to be a rare and precious spiritual item.

Thus, many cultivators unable to enter the auction embraced the hope of finding a bargain, searching for spiritual objects at stall after stall, dreaming of a lucky find.

Originally, one would think such things happened only in storybooks, but to their surprise, a cultivator really did spend only a dozen Spirit Stones to acquire a precious Earth Immortal Rank spiritual item.

If measured by Spirit Stones, that would mean he instantly profited a millionfold!

Such vast wealth naturally drew envy, and quite a few cultivators set their eyes on him, planning to act once he left the domain of Mount Wanxian and snatch his fortune.

But unexpectedly, that cultivator turned out to be a member of the Li family!

Without even considering whether heʼd leave the Ten Thousand Immortals Mountain Range after, just showing up would make them hesitate to rob him—and they might not even be his match.

Moreover, after his identity was revealed, many cultivators began to suspect it wasnʼt really a lucky find, but a script arranged by the Li family.

When the Li family heard of this, they found it laughable; the Li family wouldnʼt meddle in such a trivial matter, it truly was just that clan memberʼs good luck in obtaining the item.

...

Back to the story!

To protect cultivators who won spiritual objects, the Li family specially arranged departure routes for them, preventing them from being ambushed the moment they left, and ensuring their safety as much as possible.

Of course, powerful factions didnʼt care about such things, directly boarding Spirit Boats and flying away.

On the Spirit Boat of the Yumen He Family, several valued juniors voiced their doubts.

”The Li family has both the Heavenly Immortal Ceremony and this auction. Are they trying to display their strength and heritage?”

”I donʼt know, but it doesnʼt seem likely,”

The He Familyʼs Heavenly Immortal shook his head and said, ”Perhaps they simply wanted to take advantage of the ceremony when many cultivators gather, seize the opportunity to hold an auction, and see if they could acquire rare spiritual objects.”

If thatʼs the case, the Li familyʼs goal was more than achieved!

Because just the pill recipe for the Creation Heavenly Pill from Immortal Xia Sect made the auction worthwhile, not to mention the Li family gained plenty of other spiritual items and methods.

But this only made people more curious—why did the Li family suddenly think to host an auction?

But in the end, no answer was found, and with this question in mind, they returned to Yumen Mountain.

...

Meanwhile.

Li Debo brought the spirit seeds and pill recipes acquired today to pay respects to Li Zhirui.

Thatʼs right!

Li Zhirui did not come out for todayʼs Heavenly Immortal Ceremony, nor did he show himself, intentionally avoiding taking the spotlight from Qingpeng and Qingcang.

While Li Zhirui was contemplating and deducing pill recipes in his cave mansion, he suddenly heard the Knocking Bell ring, and immediately rose from the Alchemy Room to open the courtyard gate.

When laws could no longer be comprehended, and to avoid incurring more karmic ties, Li Zhirui had few things he could do—deducing pill recipes, refining pills, and such.

Of course, for him, these were also forms of cultivation, cultivation that did not rely on external forces nor seek help from others.

”Greetings, Ancestor Rui!”

Li Zhirui helped him up and asked, ”The ceremony is over? How did it go?”

”It went quite well.”

Li Debo smiled modestly and said, ”Ancestor Rui, we obtained many good things at the auction this time.”

As he spoke, he handed over the jade box containing the spirit seeds, along with the accumulated pill recipes, to Li Zhirui.

”Creation Heavenly Pill recipe?!”

Even Li Zhirui couldnʼt suppress the excitement and delight on his face upon seeing this pill recipe.

After some time, he finally calmed down and asked, ”Where did this recipe come from?”

Li Debo began explaining the identities of the spiritual objects brought this time.

”Immortal Xia Sect?” Li Zhirui repeated the name.

No one knew why Immortal Xia Sect did this, but it was certain that what they did would be extraordinary.

Perhaps one day it would erupt and shock the entire world.

But by then, he didnʼt know if heʼd still be in the Yuan Spirit Realm.

”You give me both the recipe and the spirit seeds—what are your intentions?”

Li Debo bowed deeply and said with utmost sincerity, ”I hope Ancestor Rui can master the recipe as soon as possible and leave the clan some pills and spiritual objects.”

Barring any accidents, now and for many years to come, Li Zhirui would be the Li familyʼs most talented and accomplished person in alchemy!

So Li Debo couldnʼt think of anyone besides Li Zhirui who could refine the Creation Heavenly Pill. The recipe naturally belonged in his hands.

As for the spirit seeds? Li Zhiruiʼs secret skill in nurturing spiritual objects had already been included in the patriarchʼs inheritance, so Li Debo knew about it.

For such rare spiritual objects, handing them to him for cultivation was the safest, and there was no need to worry about failure.

”Iʼll do my best to refine some Creation Heavenly Pills for the family before transcendence,” Li Zhirui considered for a while, then finally accepted.

Hearing this, Li Debo breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed, ”Many thanks, Ancestor Rui! The clan is already doing its best to procure spiritual objects. They will be delivered in due course.”

”Very well.”

”I wonʼt disturb Ancestor Ruiʼs cultivation any further.”

With those words, he bowed in salute and left the cave mansion.

Li Zhirui shut the door, entered his space, planted the Ninefold Heavenly Sun Fruit and Purple Extreme Treasure Mushroom and other spirit seeds, then leaned beside the Five Elements Immortal Root and began to comprehend the Creation Heavenly Pill.

Soon, all his mind and spirit were immersed in it.

Time was lost in the cave, and in a blink, decades passed.

Li Zhirui slowly opened his eyes, and a flash of brilliance shot through them as he sighed, ”It truly deserves the name ʼCreationʼ!”

It could be said that the Creation Heavenly Pill is, so far, the hardest pill to refine he has ever encountered!

Its main ingredients are not fixed, as long as they are five Heavenly Immortal Rank spiritual items of the five elements; the other materials are likewise not set—instead, for each element, five Earth Immortal Rank spiritual objects are needed, totaling twenty-five spiritual objects.

There are also two auxiliary ingredients, which must be Heavenly Immortal Rank spiritual objects of yin and yang.

In other words, the ingredients alone require seven Heavenly Immortal Rank spiritual objects of yin-yang and five elements, plus twenty-five five-element spiritual objects.

Just refining these spiritual items and allowing them to fuse without clashing, avoiding a furnace explosion, requires exceptionally powerful and profound alchemy skills.

And that is only just the beginning.
