Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 990: Chapter 964: Legacy

Besides, Jiang Fengwu, Li Chengsheng and other cultivators in the Void Refinement and Divine Transformation realms all raised their hands in agreement.

Just like Li Zhirui said, after cultivating the ”Myriad Spirits Scripture” to the Great Vehicle Realm, there is no path ahead; one must either switch to another cultivation technique or blaze their own trail.

Perfecting the existing cultivation technique is no easy task, and to some extent, it may even be more difficult than creating a new one from scratch. Not to mention the lack of short-term results, it’s possible that one might never succeed within their lifetime.

Since now there is a more complete cultivation technique that can fully encompass the ”Myriad Spirits Scripture,” of course they cannot reject it. Would they stubbornly cling to it and refuse to adapt, only to run out their lifespan and die in the end?

As for the disadvantages, there is no such thing as a perfect cultivation technique; with advantages come disadvantages as well.

It was just that some Elders were worried that after switching to the ”Terrestrial Spirit Path Records,” the binding force of the contracts would not be as strong, and whether the Contracted Spirit Beasts might flee.

It can only be said that they are thinking too much.

Not to mention the years of companionship, even if there really are such ungrateful Spirit Beasts, once they switch cultivation techniques, the Spirit Seed will be planted on Mount Wanxian. Given that they cultivate right here, where could they possibly flee to?

The solution Li Zhirui thought of, which involves being unable to carry blessed land and Cave Heavens, is currently just an idea. Whether such a Spirit Seed exists and whether it can achieve the effects he imagines are all uncertainties for now; there’s no need to ponder so far ahead just yet.

In any case, Li Hongshi’s proposal was successfully passed in the end, listing both the ”Myriad Spirits Scripture” and the ”Terrestrial Spirit Path Records” as the family’s inherited Cultivation Techniques, allowing the clan members to choose their own paths.

After settled the matter of the family’s inherited Cultivation Techniques, Li Zhirui originally thought that he could cultivate in peace, continue to recover his cultivation base, and start making strides towards the Late Stage of Void Refinement.

After all, during his time in the Earth Spirit Realm, he was favored by the Heavenly Dao; not only did he gain early understanding of Integration, but even advanced to the Great Vehicle Realm. Consequently, his own Realm also managed to break through to the Late Stage of Void Refinement on this momentum.

Moreover, Li Zhirui himself was very much looking forward to, after he had recovered to the Mid Nascent Soul stage, with the blessings of the Cave Heaven, to see if his strength could compare with an Integrated Body Cultivator.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Fengwu has brought him a tremendous surprise.

”Zhirui, were you not curious why I, as soon as I stabilized my realm, was in such a hurry to go out for training?”

Before the Purification Spirit Realm, Li Chengsheng, Shuo’er, and all of their Contracted Spirit Beasts gathered together. Jiang Fengwu began to recount her experiences from those days, especially focusing on how her Spirit Sense frantically alerted her to the great opportunities contained within a Formation she discovered.

”...After the relentless efforts by me, Shuo’er, and a group of our clan’s Array Masters, we managed to decipher the Formation a year ago and plan to head to the East Sea soon to explore the ruins.”

Saying so, she turned her gaze to Li Zhirui, saying, ”Considering that there might be dangers inside the ruins, I wanted to invite everyone to join us.”

”If there are a large number of Spiritual Objects in the ruins, you can choose.”

Depending on the grade of the Spiritual Objects, naturally, there will be varying amounts to choose from, but they need to line up behind her and those Array Masters for selection, naturally, because their contributions were the greatest.

After speaking, Jiang Fengwu fell silent, waiting for Li Zhirui to respond.

”A Seventh Rank Formation?”

Surprise tinged Li Zhirui’s tone. Leaving aside whether there were ruins and many Spiritual Objects, that they were able to challenge a high-grade Formation with their low realms, and even managed to unravel it, was already a rare opportunity for them.

”Heaven’s gifts forsaken are Heaven’s curses received!”

Li Zhirui did not take long to ponder before speaking with a smile, ”That Great Array has remained undiscovered at the seabed for so many years, and you just happened to feel its presence by chance. It shows that this opportunity was meant for you. The family is, of course, fully supportive of you!”

Having received an affirmative response from Li Zhirui, Jiang Fengwu finally let out a breath of relief.

Although his cultivation base was not advancing but retreating, he personally admitted that his strength had increased significantly, comparable to Nascent Soul Completion, and even more powerful than a typical cultivator at the Nascent Soul Completion.

With Li Zhirui and Da Qing among others, it seems that even if there are dangers in the ruins, they should be able to deal with them quite easily.

”When do you plan to depart?”

Jiang Fengwu thought for a moment, then said, ”It’s still over a month away from the time we originally agreed upon, but since everyone seems to have mostly recovered, why don’t we set off in five days?”

”Okay, if there’s nothing else, everyone can go back and get ready. We’ll meet up here in five days,” Li Zhirui also understood Jiang Fengwu’s eagerness, and since he had no other matters at hand, there was no harm in following along.

Time flew by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the day of departure arrived.

Since this expedition almost called upon all high-rank cultivators of the family, to prevent information leaks, everyone tried to minimize their presence and left Mount Wanxian quietly and without a trace.

Because Jiang Fengwu was the only person who knew the location of the ruins, she couldn’t relax like the others and had to control the Spirit Boat.

The journey was uneventful, and after traveling on the Spirit Boat for a little over a month, they finally arrived at the maritime area where the ruins were located.

On the way there, they were quite lucky to run into a few encounters with the Sea Clan, but they were of average strength and were easily killed without causing much disturbance.

In reality, Li Zhirui and his group did not know that the reason they hadn’t encountered high-rank Sea Clan was not only due to their good fortune but also because the high-rank Sea Clan in the surrounding maritime areas had been gathered to discuss some grand affair.

”We’re about to enter the seabed, remember to cast spells to repel water and to conceal your presence,” Jiang Fengwu reminded.
