Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 633 - 639: Preparation

And fate is wonderfully mysterious, with many marvelous uses. The simplest, and what is known to the world, is that it can turn misfortune into fortune and affect luck and misfortune.

Who would want to share such a great thing with others?

Unless your strength is strong enough to withstand the major powers of the Central Region, only then might you have the chance to establish yourself in the Central Region.

As for dealing with some weaker forces and taking their place, even if they are weak, they have been entrenched in the Central Region for many years. How could they be easy to deal with? You might even bring out a top-tier power.

”Divine Transformation is still too far away, your main focus now should be to break through to the late stage of Golden Core and enhance your own strength,” Li Zhirui came back to his senses and reminded him.

”Dad, is it because The Secret Realm of Wanxian is about to open?”

Li Zhirui nodded, saying, ”Yes, it will open in more than a decade.”

This time frame, not too short and not too long, meant that Li Chengsheng still had a good chance of breaking through to the late Golden Core stage during this period.

It may be a bit challenging for Li Chengshuo, but if she can keep up her current diligent cultivation, itʼs not impossible for her to seize the opportunity.

”Aside from me and my sister, are there others in the family entering The Secret Realm of Wanxian this time?”

Li Chengsheng never paid attention to family affairs. When on Wanxian Island, he would only stay between his cave dwelling and Spirit Beast Mountain, and unless there was an urgent summon, he wouldnʼt even enter the family hall during meetings.

”There is another clan member named Li Xianxun. Like you, he possesses heterogeneous dual spiritual roots, and he also has a Xun Wind Spirit Body. He is cultivating the ʼTaiyi Scudding Wind Path Scriptureʼ. Because of the compatibility, his cultivation speed is comparable to that of someone with a Heavenly Spiritual Root. Before the Secret Realm opens, he should be able to break through the middle Golden Core Stage,” replied Li Zhirui.

”Two years before the Secret Realm opens, I will personally take you to the Central Region. At that time, I will properly introduce the situation of the Secret Realm to you.”

As for Li Mingyao, who has a Heavenly Spiritual Root, his cultivation time is too short. Even with exceptional talent and incredibly fast cultivation speed, itʼs impossible to achieve Golden Core within just twenty to thirty years.

Moreover, considering the future, Li Zhirui has specifically asked him to properly refine his mana and strengthen his foundational depth.

The other Golden Core members of the family do not meet the age threshold for entering The Secret Realm of Wanxian – the Hundred-Year Golden Core – so thereʼs no way for them to go.

”You come with me now.”

With that, Li Zhirui turned and headed back to the clan estate, followed by Li Chengsheng.

In just a moment, the two arrived in front of a cave dwelling.

Li Chengsheng knocked on the door, and after a short while, Li Xianxun opened it from the inside. Seeing his visitors, he quickly greeted, ”Li Xianxun pays his respects to the Elder Ancestor!”

”Iʼll need a little of your time.”

”Whatever the Elder Ancestor commands, even if itʼs my life, I will not hesitate!”

Li Zhirui couldnʼt help but chuckle, saying, ”Itʼs not that dangerous. I just need to take you to a place.”

”Come with me.”

Soon, the three of them were outside the Spirit Realm.

However, the area had been concealed and protected by formations set by Jiang Fengwu, so neither Li Chengsheng nor Li Xianxun could see anything beyond a barren view, no matter how hard they tried.

”Dad, whatʼs here?” He truly couldnʼt understand; this place seemed no different from anywhere else.

”Follow me!”

Without further explanation, Li Zhirui directly led him into the Spirit Realm.

”This is… the Spirit Realm!”

Li Chengshengʼs face was filled with immense shock; the concept was too fantastical as only a Divine Transformation ancestor could create a Spirit Realm.

Li Xianxun, standing to one side, looked at Li Zhirui with even greater reverence.

Could it be...

”Father, have you already achieved Divine Transformation?”

Li Zhirui chuckled heartily. If it were that easy to make a breakthrough, that would be wonderful, and besides, advancing to Divine Transformation was a joyous occasion, so why would he conceal his strength?

He went on to tell him about the origin of the Spirit Realm.

”Incredible! Mother was also so exceptionally talented.”

”Before the opening of The Secret Realm of Wanxian, you should stay in the Spirit Realm to cultivate diligently. Whatever you need, just ask, and the family will do everything possible to fulfill your requirements.”

In order to enhance their strength and self-protection, the family had made many preparations, even opening the Spirit Realm to them.

Of course, the family had its demands; after they entered the stone pagoda, half of the Spiritual Objects they acquired had to be at the disposal of the family, and they could not exchange them on their own.

”What about sister?”

”Once she has completed her retreat, I will personally bring her here.”

Finally, Li Zhirui said with a solemn expression, ”Remember this! Matters of the Spirit Realm are of utmost importance, and not a single piece of information must leak out, else it could bring grave trouble upon the family!”

”Yes! Father/Elder, rest assured, we will keep it tightly sealed.”

”Good, then cultivate well.”

Having said this, Li Zhirui left.

——

At Wanxiang Sect, Myriad Puppet Peak.

Wei Ningchen knelt before an elder who appeared to be dozing with closed eyes, and said, ”Master, Iʼve fallen in love with a woman and wish to make her my Dao companion.”

”Tell me about it,” said the elder indifferently.

”I met Miss Cheng Shuo in a second-tier Secret Realm. After just that one encounter, I found my feelings for her running deep. I thought it was a relationship not meant to be, yet to my surprise, many years later, I met her again during the grand auction at Xuanfa Pavilion...”

With a joyful smile on his face, Wei Ningchen clearly showed his heartfelt affection for Li Chengshuo, saying, ”I hope my teacher will grant us this wish!”

The elderʼs brow furrowed imperceptibly. He had long been aware that his disciple had taken a fancy to a Nascent Soulʼs daughter and even knew of her special Tianyin Spirit Body.

With his status, he certainly wouldnʼt stoop to scheming against such a young girl. The strength disparity between the two families was too great for him to care about, and he intended to let nature take its course. After all, irrespective of whether or not their Cultivation Technique involved a loss of virginity, it would have no impact on the technique.

It is such a challenging feat to find a Dao companion that matches oneʼs heart and with whom mutual affection is shared. Wei Ningchen was fortunate to have this encounter.

However, upon witnessing his expression and behavior today, the elder had a change of heart, as he sensed this might not just be affection but an Emotional Tribulation that could make one unconsciously sink into it, ultimately destroying oneʼs Dao heart.

Nevertheless, the elder didnʼt immediately refuse. If Wei Ningchen were to fall deeper, it would be a case of good intentions leading to bad outcomes. Instead, he said, ”The opening of The Secret Realm of Wanxian is imminent. You need to fine-tune your Mana thoroughly in preparation. Other disciples entering the Secret Realm will rely on you.”

”This...”

Wei Ningchen was eager to marry Li Chengshuo right away, but it seemed his teacher was not quite in favor. However, he also recognized the importance of The Secret Realm of Wanxian. After all, one only gets one chance in life to enter, and the conditions are so stringent. With so many opportunities, he indeed could not afford to miss it.

”Disciple obeys! But, I wish to visit the Li family to clarify matters with Shuo so that she doesnʼt misunderstand,” Wei Ningchen said earnestly.

The elder studied him for a while before slowly nodding and saying, ”Return early and do not linger outside for too long.”
