Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2126 1533: Shackles

”I wonder what Fellow Daoist has discovered?” Fu Chengguang looked over with a puzzled expression; there were no traces of other spiritual objects nearby.

Li Zhirui didnʼt answer, instead using mana to form a large hand, carefully scooping aside the soil where the Heavenly Spirit Wisdom Fruit originally grew.

”Found it!”

Soon, a gray, inch-sized pebble appeared in the previously empty mana hand.

”What kind of spiritual object is this?”

Fu Chengguangʼs eyes showed a hint of curiosity; he hadnʼt heard of such a spiritual object, and it appeared devoid of any spirit light, just like an ordinary pebble.

”I didnʼt expect it to actually exist!”

Li Zhirui, delighted, stored it in his space before explaining, ”This is Spirit Stone Grass, typically growing alongside the Heavenly Spirit Wisdom Fruit.”

As for the specific reason for this symbiotic occurrence, it has yet to be researched by cultivators in the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm.

”It is also an Earth Immortal rank spiritual object, just slightly lower in grade, barely considered mid-grade. Its effects are not as comprehensive as the Heavenly Spirit Wisdom Fruit, only providing a Divine Union with Heaven and Earth.”

However, precisely because it has only one function, in this regard, Spirit Stone Grass is superior.

Hearing this, Fu Chengguang suddenly recalled that there was indeed a record of Spirit Stone Grass in some jade slip, but he had only skimmed through it without a lasting impression.

”Did you memorize all the contents of those jade slips?” he asked in surprise, with a hint of admiration.

”As an alchemist, memorizing the properties, effects, and growth environments of various spiritual objects is just a basic skill,” Li Zhirui said, not considering it an impressive feat, as many alchemists possessed such a skill.

After all, how could one deduce and perfect pill recipes if they couldnʼt remember spiritual objects?

”Impressive!”

Fu Chengguang exclaimed, having no patience for such a task himself. He added, ”But there is quite a disparity between the grades of the two spiritual objects; next time we encounter spiritual objects, you may choose first, Fellow Daoist.”

”No need to do that. The Spirit Stone Grass is more important and suitable for me.”

He didnʼt dwell on the matter any longer but secretly resolved that the next time they encountered precious spiritual objects, he would ensure the spiritual object went to the other party.

”It seems we indeed have good luck.”

As they set off again, Li Zhirui couldnʼt help but remark.

Upon entering the secret realm, they found a vast spirit field without others around, reaping a substantial harvest of spiritual objects. After starting their actions, they effortlessly gained two Earth Immortal rank spiritual objects, with the Heavenly Spirit Wisdom Fruit being a veritable treasure.

Without battling cultivators, they acquired a large number of spiritual objects—a stroke of good fortune indeed.

”Indeed, it would be great if our luck could continue like this,”

Fu Chengguang maintained a clear, calm mind, saying, ”But the deeper we go, the more intense the competition in the secret realm will become, and conflicts will occur more frequently, so we must remain cautious.”

”Yes, youʼre right!”

The two exchanged a smile; no wonder they could become fast friends, working together seamlessly, sharing the same views on many matters.

On their journey, they encountered quite a few cultivators, but possibly due to the secret realmʼs recent opening and their lack of weakness, conflicts had yet to arise.

As for spiritual objects, they did find some, but their grades were relatively low, appearing as if spirit seeds were carelessly scattered in the wild to grow freely, depending solely on luck for success.

The days passed uneventfully, lacking surprises or shocks.

Until the twelfth day in the secret realm.

”Fellow Daoist, do you smell any floral scent?” During flight, Fu Chengguang suddenly inquired.

”Hmm?”

Li Zhirui closed his eyes, carefully sensing a faint floral fragrance permeating the air.

”Letʼs go check it out!”

Before he could react, Fu Chengguang followed the direction of the scent.

Perhaps due to the monotonous and unrewarding days, the potential of breaking this routine now filled their hearts with anticipation, adding an extra layer of excitement.

Seeing this, Li Zhirui had no choice but to follow.

Before long, the floral fragrance became more intense, yet this only added to the difficulty in pinpointing its source.

Thus, Fu Chengguang had to extend his divine sense, conducting a broad search for any peculiarities in the vicinity.

”Found it!”

Soon, his face lit up with joy as he accelerated forward.

Then, a bright and colorful spirit flower, dazzling and captivating, appeared before them.

Even the experienced and knowledgeable Li Zhirui and Fu Chengguang couldnʼt help but gaze in awe and appreciation upon seeing the spirit flower for the first time.

”Fellow Daoist, what kind of spiritual object is this?”

Li Zhirui examined it with a frown, saying, ”I donʼt know either.”

However, judging by its evident spirit light, it must be an Earth Immortal rank spiritual object, likely top-grade.

Currently, because the spirit flower hasnʼt matured, its exact grade couldnʼt be determined.

”Fellow Daoist, you should take this spiritual object,” Fu Chengguang said, true to his word, choosing to step back and not compete for it.

Li Zhirui quipped, ”The grade of this spirit flower is not low, and its effects are yet undisclosed—what if itʼs a genuinely rare spiritual object?”
