Cultivation Starts with Rejuvenation

In this life, as a beneficiary, Li Ji’an can’t say this.

Once the Demon Cultivators occupy the Celestial Cyan Domain, he’s likely to be purged.

If given the choice, he naturally hopes for the victory of the Celestial Cyan Domain so he can continue cultivating peacefully in the Sect.

”Naturally! If we lose, even if we survive by luck, we would still be like stray dogs,” Li Ji’an affirmed.

Yao Rui and Guo Feng nodded in agreement.

Along the way, Li Ji’an meticulously planned for the future.

The greatest hope in his life at Biyun Sect is to utilize the Upper Grade Tier Three Spirit Vein of the Sect to break through to Core Formation.

Yet, at this critical moment, the Demon Realm army is approaching, putting his previous life’s planning at risk of going off track.

”The Cultivation Realm indeed is ever-changing!”

However, he wasn’t too disappointed.

The unpredictability of things is the only constant.

Acceptance and adaptation is the right mindset to have.

Moreover, he had been stable in Biyun Sect till now, the Cultivation Technique fulfilled his previous life’s expectations, his Spirit Root exceeded expectations, and the cultivation environment before Core Formation met his expectations, he was already content.

As for where to go next, it depends on the war situation.

With his current strength, besides avoiding being cannon fodder, he could only pray in his heart, having no impact on the battlefield.

In the month that followed, the frontline was frequently at war.

Although the Boundless Domain clearly had nearly twice the number of True Pill Masters compared to the Three Sects Alliance Army, and even more Foundation Establishment Stage Demon Cultivators, they never fully attacked, only sending out forces equivalent to the Three Sects Alliance in attrition warfare.

The Boundless Domain split into nearly two forces, one to fight a match, the other immediately took over seamlessly.

This resulted in the Three Sects Alliance having almost no time to recover, constantly being pulled by the other side, forced to recover quickly using Pill Medicine.

It was clear that the Boundless Domain, relying on its numerical advantage, chose the most stable strategy.

At this rate, unless a miracle happened, the defeat of the Three Sects Alliance was only a matter of time.

The Boundless Domain’s cultivators could achieve victory with minimal casualties and consumption.

Li Ji’an was unsure if this strategic approach of the Boundless Domain was related to the final spoils distribution with the Yellow Heaven Domain or simply a tactic to reduce casualties by striking steadily.

Having the advantage, don’t squander it, the victory is assured!

”Come on!” On this day, the first official pill escort mission was issued, Li Ji’an arrived at the foot of the Dongli Sect’s mountain, collecting Gugu and Little Fire Spirit.

When he had just achieved Foundation Establishment fifty years ago, Gugu and Little Fire Spirit had traveled ten thousand miles from Fallen Dragon Ridge to the foot of Biyun Sect’s mountains.

However, at that time, with the Qingmen Sect’s attack, the Sect’s protection was tight, so Li Ji’an did not let Gugu advance rashly but sent it to the Odd Stone Forest.

It happened that Xiaoqiao was summoned to fight, so the two little ones stayed in Xiaoqiao’s garden retreat to cultivate.

Now coming to the front line, Li Ji’an brought them along.

Having understood the Boundless Domain’s strategy now, Li Ji’an was much more cautious about this first mission to escort Pill Medicines and Talismans.

In this life, his attention was solely on cultivation; besides reaching Foundation Establishment Peak, only his Divine Sense continued to grow, with little progress elsewhere.

His Body Cultivation was stuck at Tier One Peak, without an opportunity to find Wood Marrow to nourish himself and break through Tier Two.

Talismans, Puppets, Pill Medicines, and other cultivation skills also saw no progress, living off past life’s resources.

The Protective Cards were slightly lacking compared to his previous life.

Gugu and Little Fire Spirit, these two cards, greatly contributed to his safety.

”Hoo hoo~” Little Fire Spirit burrowed into Li Ji’an’s Dantian again, incredibly excited.

Wood Generating Fire, the thick, rich Cyan Magical Power within Li Ji’an’s Dantian nourished Little Fire Spirit like maternal milk.

At the same time, Li Ji’an unexpectedly discovered that when Little Fire Spirit was absorbing his Wood Element Magical Power, the purifying effect it had on Magical Power was increased at least fivefold compared to the Fire Element Magical Power of his previous life!

During his previous Foundation Establishment Stage, he occasionally relied on Little Fire Spirit to purify the Magical Power in his Dantian.

However, the efficiency was less than 30% of fights and misunderstandings, and it consumed Magical Power.

Moreover, the Wood Element Magical Power in this life was three times thicker than the previous life, relying solely on Little Fire Spirit for purification was too slow.

So in this life, he never relied on Little Fire Spirit.

But the unexpected discovery at this moment made Li Ji’an slap his thigh with regret for the precious fifty years missed just like this.

Otherwise, perhaps the purity of his Wood Element Magical Power now would have at least doubled.

Stowing away Gugu and Little Fire Spirit, Li Ji’an quickly returned to the escort team.

Soon, Master Zhang of the Ten Thousand Laws Palace, responsible for the escort this time, descended from Pill Peak, followed by five others, each holding several Storage Pouches.

Over this past month, Pill Masters from the Three Sects and Loose Cultivators, over three hundred people, worked nonstop day and night in Alchemy, with the majority of Pill Medicines for Qi Cultivation and the Foundation Establishment Stage filling thirteen Storage Pouches, with less for Tier Three, but still occupying three Storage Pouches.

All of them were Pill Medicines for replenishing Spiritual Qi and Magical Power.

Fortunately, the medicinal materials for these kinds of most widely effective Pill Medicines were not scarce, especially Tier One and Two materials, which have already been cultivated artificially long ago.

However, judging from the frontline’s consumption over the past month, this supply of Pill Medicines probably would last only half a year at most.

Besides Pill Medicines, there were also Storage Pouches filled with Talismans.

The Talismans were mainly auxiliary Spirit Talismans, with True Man Lingjiu of Dongli Sect being the Talisman King on the surface in the Celestial Cyan Domain, but with low efficiency in crafting Tier Three Spirit Talismans, and the materials were hard to find, the cost-effectiveness was too low.

So this time, they were mostly Rejuvenation Talismans, Purifying God Talismans, and Qi Gathering Talismans.

In addition, the largest items in this escort were the Array Bases, filling a total of three Flying Boats.

Initially, the Three Sects Alliance didn’t expect the opposing forces with such a significant advantage would resort to positional warfare, so they prepared for a big battle and then retreat to hold the line at Dongli Sect, but the enemy outsmarted them and has now restrained them outside, unable to retreat safely.
