Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 1755: Chapter 1346: Wager_2

In his imagination, the Five Viscera Gods should exist like avatars, and if danger arises, he could summon them to help alleviate the pressure.

As for the final craft, Li Zhirui himself thought it should be more popular than the two methods, after all, the grade of the methods was too low, merely some creative ideas with some attraction.

But dispelling and removing inner impurities, that’s different; it’s a problem everyone faces, just more or less.

After pondering for a moment, he took out a piece of white paper and set up a simple, even rudimentary, stall in an open space, writing out the three items he was selling.

Perhaps due to the rudimentary stall, it quickly attracted some beings to come and watch.

“Removing inner impurities and toxins, are you sure you can do it? And not just deceive us?” A being, whose realm was undetectable, asked somewhat intrigued.

How could he not be tempted? His cultivation had stalled for many years because of excessive inner impurities, and if they could be removed, he might break through to a higher realm.

Indeed!

Just like Li Zhirui’s initial speculation, among the cultivators gathered, eight out of ten were focused on the Purification Principle he mastered, questioning whether its effects were as he claimed.

“Of course! If the senior doesn’t believe me, we can find the guild for notarization, and if it fails, I won’t take any money!” Seeing the possibility of closing his first deal, he quickly said.

“A mere Earth Immortal dares to boast here, deceiving others of their Spirit Crystals!” Suddenly, a cold voice rang out, drawing everyone’s attention.

They saw a man walking over coldly, looking unfriendly towards Li Zhirui, saying, “I have a younger martial nephew who practices the Purification Principle, with higher cultivation than yours, yet he has never displayed the abilities you speak of.”

“Senior, although the laws of the Great Tao are unique, each person has their insights, and even if they comprehend the same law, it manifests differently,” he explained politely.

Despite his profound displeasure, Li Zhirui had no choice given the overwhelming disparity in strength.

“Heh!”

Hearing this, the man scoffed disdainfully, saying, “If you can truly do it, I’ll give you a thousand Spirit Crystals! But if you can’t, you must abolish your laws, how about it!? Dare to wager!”

Li Zhirui was infuriated—abolish his laws? How is that different from a death sentence!

Buying his life for a thousand Spirit Crystals? How belittling!

Having wandered here for a while, he had a clear understanding of the value of Spirit Crystals; one Spirit Crystal was worth about a million Top Grade Spirit Stones.

A thousand Spirit Crystals, or ten billion Top Grade Spirit Stones, to buy his life? How cheap!

“Thirty thousand Spirit Crystals, and I’ll stake my life with the senior in a wager!” Instead of losing his temper, Li Zhirui seized the chance to raise the stakes.

This rendered the man speechless.

Though he could afford thirty thousand Spirit Crystals, he didn’t think it was worth it!

Moreover, he needed the Spirit Crystals for the upcoming auction and couldn’t waste them recklessly.

“Senior, surely you can afford it?” Li Zhirui provoked, hoping he would agree to the bet.

The quarrel had attracted quite a few beings, who were eagerly watching the mysterious man, with some even egging him on.

They didn’t want to miss this spectacle.

“Hmph! Who says I can’t afford it! Bet it is, I refuse to believe it!”

Li Zhirui remained calm, merely rising to say, “I request the guild to verify.”

A steward of the Bai character class from the guild came over, confirming again, “This will be witnessed by Bai Quan!”

“Then let’s begin! Let everyone see your unique Purification Principle, unless it’s as impressive as you claim,” Hu Jianming said in a very displeased tone.

Li Zhirui took a deep breath and slowly approached the being, asking, “Senior, would you like to try? If you wish to continue, please lie on this Cloud Bed.”

Bai Zhang hesitated for a while but eventually agreed and lay down on the Cloud Bed.

“Next, please restrain your Divine Sense and Mana, as my strength is low and I might get targeted, unable to retaliate, leading to failure,” he said.

Following Li Zhirui’s instructions meant Bai Zhang became like fish on the chopping block, at someone else’s mercy!

Yet matters had progressed to this point, refusal was hardly an option, so he obeyed obediently.

Once all preliminary preparations were made, Li Zhirui first placed a few top-grade Immortal Pills in his mouth, to prevent mana depletion leading to failure.

Then he began casting, summoning large amounts of Purification Principles, transforming them into small white lotuses that entered Bai Zhang’s body, using Divine Sense to guide them to accurately locate clusters of impurities and toxins.

One by one, the white lotuses fell into the ‘mire,’ absorbing the power to grow stronger, then splitting into more small white lotuses.

As time ticked by, Li Zhirui was soaked in sweat but still hard at work, as he hadn’t resolved the issue in the other’s body.

It differed from treating Mo Ziling; Mo’s toxins were mostly concentrated in the Dantian Sea of Law, making them easier to cleanse.

But Bai Zhang’s impurities and toxins were scattered chaotically, necessitating Li Zhirui’s full concentration to search and manipulate the white lotus, to avoid any oversight that would lead to failure.

The scene was silent; everyone awaited the final result.

The wagering cultivator already felt unease creeping in, sensing the likelihood of success if things continued down this path.

But under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he couldn’t sabotage anything, standing sullenly on the side, waiting for the final outcome.

After a long time, Li Zhirui’s face had turned pale, his body showed slight tremors, seemingly reaching the limit.

Yet he gritted his teeth and held on!

Only a step away from ultimate success, he couldn’t let it all go in vain.

When the last few small white lotuses absorbed the final impurity within Bai Zhang, Li Zhirui quickly retracted his Divine Sense, swallowing a pill to swiftly restore some Spiritual Soul and Mana, preparing to handle the situation at hand.

“Senior, how do you feel?”

Bai Zhang, who was probing every inch of his body with closed eyes, was startled by these words and said excitedly, “It’s a success! There’s no impurity or toxin left in my body!”

“I feel as light as a feather, even my realm seems to have loosened!”

Boom—

The declaration incited an uproar.

The crowd couldn’t believe he really did it!

“Really? Could it be a setup for us to fall into!”

“It must be true; if it were false, the guild wouldn’t agree to notarize it.”

“This is fantastic! It entirely reduces the difficulty of future cultivation!”

…

Some doubted, some believed, and some were expectant and excited, hoping such good fortune might soon befall them.

“Senior, the thirty thousand Spirit Crystal bet, you’re not going to back out over a mere thirty thousand Spirit Crystals, are you?” Li Zhirui, ignoring the eager eyes around, walked up to the man with a faint smile.

“Hmph!”

The cultivator found it humiliating, handed over the thirty thousand Spirit Crystals, and then hurried away from the troublesome spot.

“Thank you, young friend! If it weren’t for you, who knows how many years it would take for my bottleneck to show a hint of looseness; your great kindness I can only repay with Spiritual Objects, I hope you don’t mind.”

Speaking, Bai Zhang took out three Spiritual Objects: a green vibrant leaf, a dry twig, and a blooming Green Lotus, introducing, “These are the leaf and branch of the Crossing Sky Flying Tree, which you can use to refine a Flying Magical Treasure.”
