Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2064 1501: Purification

”Hehe...”

Seeing Li Debo looking sorrowful and hesitant, Li Zhirui couldnʼt help but let out a light chuckle, saying, ”Donʼt act like a child, itʼs not like a life-and-death separation.”

Although there is a possibility of meeting again in the future, the probability is nearly zero.

Not to mention whether Li Debo can transcend, the vast chaos in the Void makes another meeting nearly impossible without extraordinary fortune.

”Yes!”

Li Debo responded, forcibly uplifting his spirits.

”You must have guessed what Iʼm going to say, so Iʼll be direct.”

Li Zhiruiʼs expression turned serious, ”The day of my transcendence is near, inform the clansmen to return to the family in ten years to observe this transcendence.

In reality, this may not necessarily have a beneficial impact on the cultivation of the clansmen because, from the previous process of Li Zhixuanʼs transcendence, the Heavenly Dao did not manifest; it only instinctively rejected her.

Of course, this might be related to Li Zhixuanʼs initial refinement of the Chaos God Demon Dao Body.

Li Zhirui also wondered if his orthodox transcendence would cause the Heavenly Dao to appear, making it easier for the clansmen to comprehend the Laws, as a final contribution to the family.

”Ten years? Iʼve noted it down. Rest assured, Ancestor Rui, you can perform your divine power.”

Saying this, he bowed and took his leave.

Even if Li Debo wanted to conceal such a matter, it would be incredibly difficult to do so.

So from the beginning, he made it public without any intention of hiding.

The news immediately attracted the attention of various forces.

”Speaking of which, isnʼt this the second Heavenly Immortal of the Li family to transcend?”

”Yes, before this, there was a sword cultivator named Li Zhixuan from the Li family who also chose to transcend after not long breaking through to Heavenly Immortal.”

”Why is the Li family so obsessed with transcendence instead of staying in the Primal Spirit Realm? The previous elder might have been too weak to break through to the Profound Immortal Realm, but this Heavenly Immortal achieved his status long ago, and there were always rumors he could achieve the Profound Immortal Realm.”

...

The Loose Cultivators were abuzz, very curious about this matter.

”Do you think itʼs because the Li family has long known about the era of the Primal Spirit Realmʼs disdain for the Heavenly Dao, so theyʼre all trying to leave as soon as possible?” Suddenly, a loose cultivator voiced this thought.

Instantly, the scene fell silent, the atmosphere became somewhat eerie.

”It shouldnʼt be like that?” after a long pause, a loose cultivator tentatively spoke.

”Itʼs not impossible! Otherwise, why else would two Great Abilities from the Li family strive to transcend the Primal Spirit Realm?”

”Indeed!”

Unexpectedly, many loose cultivators believed in such wild speculation!

Then the rumors began to spread, and as one knows, startling, unusual, even somewhat outrageous news is the easiest to spread.

As a result, some not-so-weak forces believed in the rumor.

The consequence escalated, and the news became increasingly exaggerated, with the most outrageous rumor being that the Li family already had a Profound Immortal in hiding.

”If the Li family is truly that powerful, how could they quietly guard Shanhai State?”

Previously, Shanhai State was not a desirable place, and its spiritual energy richness now is entirely due to the Li familyʼs gradual development.

Therefore, powerful factions like the Cave Abyss Sect found those rumors laughable. If the Li family had such abilities, why would they remain secluded?

They even suspected that the rumor was initiated by the Li family themselves, aiming to bolster their reputation, making others mistakenly believe they were formidable.

”That Heavenly Immortal from the Li family probably decided to transcend quickly after hearing the Profound Immortal Ancestorʼs words.”

”Who would have thought heʼd be so timid and cowardly?”

Some Heavenly Immortal cultivators had only mediocre opinions of Li Zhirui, even carrying a hint of disdain.

Li Zhirui, however, knew nothing of this, and even if he did, he wouldnʼt care, as outsidersʼ opinions couldnʼt sway his decision.

Therefore, after assigning matters to Li Debo, he went to the Netherworld.

His arrival did not alarm any ghosts or gods, except one person noticed his presence, which was Earth Element Lady, this senior Great God.

”May I ask what brings Fellow Daoist here?” With a thought, she manifested a clone before Li Zhirui.

”Greetings, Lady.”

Li Zhirui bowed before saying, ”I heard that evil filth had accumulated beneath the Netherworld, and Iʼve come here for that reason.”

”Does Fellow Daoist intend to purify all the evil filth?” In a flash, Earth Element Lady guessed his purpose, ”And then use the merit to resolve your karmic causes and achieve transcendence?”

Otherwise, there would be no reason to risk purifying such massive evil filth.

One must know that this matter is not easily resolved, and failure might lead to backlash; at worst, it could result in personal disaster!

”Lady, you are indeed wise and insightful. I am in awe.” Seeing that she had guessed his purpose, Li Zhirui didnʼt conceal it and expressed his intent directly.

Earth Element Lady smiled gently, ”Would Fellow Daoist allow me to observe and learn from the side?”

Li Zhirui raised an eyebrow, surprised by her request, then suddenly remembered a rumor from within the Divine Path, instantly understanding her intent.

She, too, wished to transcend, yet couldnʼt find an exceptionally effective method.

”Then Iʼll trouble Lady to act as a protector!”

After some thought, Li Zhirui didnʼt refuse, even adding, ”Have you heard of the Earth Immortal Path, Lady?”

”Hmm, Iʼve heard of it.” Earth Element looked slightly puzzled, not knowing why he brought this up.

”This method is somewhat helpful for acquiring merit and reducing karmic causes.”

”Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist!” A hint of joy and regret appeared on Earth Elementʼs face.

If she had paid more attention to this information earlier, she might have repaid much karmic cause by now.

Fortunately, itʼs not too late yet.

”Fellow Daoist Li, please follow me.”

”Iʼll trouble you, Lady.” Li Zhirui treated this Great God with utmost respect.

In truth, their Realms arenʼt vastly different, but the Netherworld and earth are her Divine Domain, amplifying her power tremendously. He had no confidence in defeating her under these circumstances.

Moreover, the Li family has Li Mingyao and several Earth Gods, for whom Earth Element Lady is a supreme superior. For their sake, Li Zhirui had to remain courteous and friendly toward her.

With Earth Element personally leading the way, it wasnʼt long before the two of them arrived at their destination.
