Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 808: Chapter 814: Preparation

”Hmm?”

Li Zhirui, along with Xiaoqing and Cang, had roamed around the Boundless Sea for a while, not only thoroughly relaxing his mental state but also discovering two treasures in the Distant Sea.

One of them was a fourth-order Spirit Plant which possessed a very special effect—the power to purify the waters. If planted in the Purification Secret Realm, it would certainly enhance the Laws further.

The second was a stone egg which, according to Li Zhirui’s research, appeared to be a dragon egg formerly laid by a fifth-rank Dragon Beast; however, for some unknown reason, it had completely lost its vitality and coincidentally fell into the hands of a fourth-order Water Devil.

It was originally intended for consumption when encountering a bottleneck to aid in his breakthrough, but before that day came, Cang had slain it.

Naturally, the stone egg also fell into Cang’s possession, enabling his bloodline to advance further!

As for whether it could break through to the sixth rank, that was still unknown.

When Li Zhirui and his companions returned to Wanxian Island, they just saw a Cloud Whale Spirit Ship departing.

One must know that the Cloud Whale Spirit Ship could carry hundreds of people, and if comfort was disregarded, cramming in a thousand people was not impossible.

Thus, ever since the construction of the Cloud Whale Spirit Ship, it was only used when a large number of clan members rotated.

”I wasn’t on Wanxian Island for a month or two; could it be that something significant occurred in the clan?” Li Zhirui was curious, but didn’t really mind.

Because he hadn’t received any news, that meant the clan could handle it and didn’t need his intervention.

”Alright, go and cultivate; I won’t disturb you at this time.”

Having said that, Li Zhirui disappeared completely.

”Did you just see how Jiu disappeared?” Xiaoqing suddenly asked.

Cang shook his head, saying, ”Jiu’s strength is becoming stronger.”

Previously, when Li Zhirui employed the Escape Technique, there were some traces to follow; now there might still be, but they could no longer see them.

”So we can’t fall behind!” With a spirited demeanor, Xiaoqing said he could break through in just a few decades.

After speaking, his aura surged, turning into a streak of azure light hurtling toward Wanxian Island.

Cang lowered his gaze; his cultivation time was too short. Even with his extraordinary talent, he was still behind, but not for much longer.

Once he achieved Divine Transformation...

A strong sense of confidence emerged in Cang’s heart; he was certain he wouldn’t fall behind the others—in fact, this would be his stage to surpass Da Qing and Xiaoqing!

This confidence stemmed from Cang’s faith in his own bloodline, especially after acquiring the stone egg!

Being originally of a fifth-rank top-tier bloodline, with the stone egg as a catalyst, Cang believed in his successful ascension to the sixth rank!

Meanwhile, after parting with the two, the first thing Li Zhirui did upon returning to the Spirit Realm, was to excavate a lake three miles across next to the green willows, placing the Mysterious Spirit Driftwood he had acquired in the center of the lake.

It was a very peculiar Spirit Plant; it required no soil for rooting and could be completely submerged in water.

Having placed the driftwood, Li Zhirui immediately sensed the nearby Purification Laws becoming more active, colliding with each other and ’giving birth’ to more Purification Laws!

”Unfortunately, purifying Spirit Plants are too rare; otherwise, planting dozens of them in the Spirit Realm would have enriched the Purification Laws manifold!” lamented Li Zhirui.

However, he also understood that moderation was crucial; sometimes, having too much was not a good thing.

Dismissing this unreliable fancy, Li Zhirui began to search for a new cultivation site, finally selecting a spot where the green willow met the pond.

He casually created a piece of blue stone about ten feet in size, moving the Pillow used for cultivation onto it.

Li Zhirui didn’t expend effort in building a Cave Mansion, a pillow was enough.

”Is the Spirit Realm you mentioned located in this sea area?” The Jindan of the Li family, having arrived at their destination, immediately used their Divine Sense to explore.

The sea was vast, enveloped in blue from all sides, with no accurate landmarks nearby. Being able to determine a range was already commendable.

”We’ve found it!”

Before the clansman could speak, a Jindan opened their eyes, their tone filled with surprise.

Everyone immediately navigated the Spirit Boat closer, and a Jindan used Pupil Skill to see through the water, spotting the Secret Realm below emitting Spirit Light, ”It’s just below us, but the Secret Realm hasn’t fully opened yet.”

”Let’s set up a Great Array first to prevent others from noticing.”

”Agreed!”

The sea area was rich in resources, and because the Li family oversaw the nearby waters, the danger level was not very high, hence many Loose Cultivators hunted in the Boundless Sea, not to mention the endless Water Devils.

Should there be a Third Order Water Devil or Loose Cultivator who stumbled upon this place and discovered the Secret Realm, it would lead to conflict.

Among them was a Third Order Array Master, who quickly set up a concealment Great Array.

It wasn’t long before the Cloud Whale Spirit Ship, sent by the Li family, followed the hidden marks and came nearby.

”Our family has sent people!”

Someone immediately appeared, flew up, and discussed with the clansmen on the Spirit Boat. Since the array wasn’t large enough to accommodate everyone, they had to stay hidden on the Spirit Boat and wait for the Secret Realm to open.

After waiting for several days, the realm which was constantly emitting white light suddenly radiated brightly as the portal gradually formed.

”Let’s first test the grade of the Secret Realm.”

Although the Li family hadn’t discovered a new Secret Realm for many years, their knowledge in related fields was nonetheless comprehensive.

After several experiments, the result thrilled them, for the Secret Realm was at least Third Order!

The reason it was said to be ”at least” was because they didn’t possess higher-grade Spiritual Objects to continue testing.

”Quick! Send this news back to the family so that the Clan Leader can send more clan members here, it would be best if a Nascent Soul Elder could come and re-verify the grade of the Secret Realm!”

Using the Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Talisman, the news reached Li Mingzi’s hands in mere moments.

Li Mingzi didn’t hesitate at all, and immediately via her Identity Jade, informed all the Jindan clansmen, as well as Li Chenghuo, Li Xian Xun, and Li Mingyao, the three Nascent Soul Elders who stayed with the family.

She instructed all available Jindan clansmen to head to the Secret Realm, and if the three Nascent Soul Elders had time, they were also asked to make the journey.

Furthermore, Li Mingzi also traveled to the Spirit Realm to seek an audience with Li Zhirui.

”Is there something you need?”

Unlike the previous two Clan Leaders, Li Mingzi and Li Zhirui were not close, so she seldom sought an audience with him.

But now, as she hurried over with an excited demeanor, it surely meant something significant had happened.

”Ancestor Rui, a clansman discovered a Secret Realm in the sea area, and after testing, it is at least a Third Order Secret Realm...”

Li Mingzi succinctly explained what she had just done.

She added, ”I seek an audience with Ancestor Rui to request that you intervene, ensuring that the Spirit Ancestors are prepared. If it’s confirmed as a Fourth Order Secret Realm, the Spirit Ancestors must immediately depart.”

After all, the opening time of the Secret Realm was limited, and if it indeed was a Fourth Order Secret Realm and they missed it, that would be truly regrettable.
