Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2200 - 1570: Emerging from Seclusion

The disciples didn’t feel there was anything amiss, just a bit regretful that the Sect Leader was unwilling to act and could not dominate Mingzhou in a short time.

After all, who knows how many years it will take for them to grow into the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

”Go back and cultivate individually.”

After saying this, Wansheng’s figure completely disappeared.

Everyone then dispersed.

Several years passed, and the door that had been tightly closed for hundreds of years finally opened.

Li Zhirui, who had started his closed-door meditation at the inception of rebuilding the Tongtian Sect, slowly walked out.

His aura perfectly harmonized around him, existing between heaven and earth, and yet seemingly detached. Soon, it was entirely concealed, as if he became an ordinary person.

”It’s only been a few hundred short years, and I didn’t expect the Tongtian Sect to have developed to such an extent; Wansheng really worked hard.”

Li Zhirui released his Divine Sense and instantly scanned the situation of Ascension Mountain, sighed with emotion as he muttered to himself.

He truly let go at that time and didn’t manage affairs, and the current strength of Tongtian Sect is all due to Wansheng’s efforts.

Now that the Tongtian Sect is on the right track, his role in the future will merely be guarding the mountain gate and guiding disciples, unlike the busy days before.

”Sect Leader? You’ve finally come out of closed meditation!” Wansheng, who frequently came to check on the situation, exclaimed in surprise.

Li Zhirui expressed his gratitude face-to-face, ”Thanks to you over the years, you’ve worked hard.”

”The Sect Leader’s words are too heavy; this was what I was meant to do.” Moreover, this was extremely important for it.

”During development, are there any unresolved issues or matters?” Not wanting to waste time on such useless dialogues, he straightforwardly inquired whether there was anything he could resolve directly.

”Indeed, there are several important matters that require your presence, Sect Leader.”

Wansheng’s attitude turned serious as he continued, ”Firstly, the Spiritual Energy in the mountains near Ascension Mountain is thin, making it impossible to open mid- to high-grade Spirit Fields; the Sect Leader needs to migrate Spirit Veins from other regions.”

With its fragmented soul body, there’s no large mana within to accomplish this, and the disciples are of the same reasoning.

”Secondly, for the Tongtian Sect to advance further, it cannot continue to be self-sufficient or constantly deplete its foundation; establishing Marketplaces and Immortal Cities is the best approach.”

This matter also requires Li Zhirui’s presence; other disciples lack strong enough power to deter other forces and certain Loose Cultivators.

”Thirdly, the Sect Leader should impart the ’Upper Pure Heavenly Gang Earth Sha One Hundred and Eight Diagrams·Vol. 3’ cultivation technique to those disciples who’ve reached the Individual Immortal Realm; they’ve been without techniques for cultivation for quite some time.”

Wansheng indeed has the complete ’Upper Pure Diagram,’ but does not have the authority to impart techniques above the Individual Immortal Realm.

”Fourthly, currently all disciples are merely outer disciples and servant disciples, which is no good for sect development; it’s time to select inner sect, and even true disciples.”

Out of respect for Li Zhirui as Sect Leader, this matter was delayed for several hundred years, although he might not personally place much importance on it.

Beyond these key matters, numerous less critical issues await Li Zhirui’s handling,

such as some internal adjustments of the mountain gate, and the selection of sites for establishing outposts.

In summary, the matters are very diverse but crucial, cannot be delayed further.

Having finished listening, Li Zhirui didn’t complain because this was his responsibility. He reached a mid-stage Profound Immortal Realm in peace during his closed meditation, thanks to Wansheng taking on much of the burden, he couldn’t avoid it any longer.

”Gather all the disciples and first impart the cultivation technique to those Independent Immortal disciples, and meanwhile have them prepare for the selection of inner sect and true disciples.”

”Has the Sect Leader decided on the selection criteria yet?”

Li Zhirui casually said, ”Isn’t there various criteria in the history of the Tongtian Sect? Just pick out the suitable ones from them.”

Upon hearing this, Wansheng’s eyes showed a hint of concern, clearly reflecting his disinterest in the matters of Tongtian Sect.

This left it wondering why the inheritance chose him? And allowed him to rapidly pass the test, gaining the inheritance in such a short time.

This concern brought unease to its heart: can Tongtian Sect really rise again under a Sect Leader who doesn’t care for it?

Unfortunately, this is already a reality, and Wansheng doesn’t possess the power or ability to change it, only silently praying in its heart that these concerns are unfounded.

”Wansheng?! What are you pondering? Didn’t I ask you to gather all the disciples?” Li Zhirui saw it hadn’t acted, seemingly lost in something, furrowing his brows as he reminded it.

”What?”

Upon hearing the voice, Wansheng immediately snapped out of it, saying, ”I’ll start gathering the disciples now.”

It then began to perform spells, summoning all available disciples at the mountain gate who weren’t in closed meditation.

As they saw Li Zhirui, some looked curiously at him, while a few disciples guessed his identity.

”Elder, this senior is...” Although there was some assumption in their hearts, confirmation was still needed.

”This is the Sect Leader of Tongtian Sect, Master Jiang Jiang Changming, possessing Profound Immortal cultivation.”
