Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 795 - 801: Making Enemies

"Dad, we can’t always rely on you, so we’ve been preparing for a while," Li Chengshuo said with a grin, "We are all Nascent Souls now, it’s time for us to be independent."

Li Zhirui was taken aback by these words, having grown accustomed to being depended upon. This was the first time he had been refused. He paused for a moment before saying, "As long as you’re ready, that’s fine."

"Dad, there’s one more thing I need to trouble you with, please help me look after Howling Moon," Li Chengshuo said with a pleading expression.

He did not know how long his journey of experience would take, and with Howling Moon at a critical juncture of breaking through to the fourth order, the uncertainties of an external breakthrough were too great. It would be better to leave him at home. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

With the rich spiritual energy of Wanxian Island and so many people to act as protectors, Li Chengshuo could rest easy.

"Don’t worry, I will take good care of Howling Moon."

Li Zhirui then asked, "Do you plan to experience adventures together?"

"Of course not! Now that we are all Nascent Soul cultivators, plus with Contracted Spirit Beasts, our strength is so formidable that adventures might not even be effective," Li Chengshuo thought.

Having been out for a long time already, these twenty or thirty years at Wanxian Island had nearly given him an illness from boredom. He just wanted to relax properly, how could he possibly follow Jiang Fengwu and Li Chengsheng.

"That’s true, with your strength there’s nothing to worry about."

Li Zhirui nodded in agreement and said, "When you leave, I’ll see you off."

"I will notify you in advance at that time."

Time passed swiftly, and before they knew it, the day had come for Jiang Fengwu and the others to depart.

Their departure was not made known to anyone else, only Li Zhirui was aware.

"Be careful when you’re out on your own, don’t be without caution, do you remember?" Li Zhirui nagged with concern.

"Dad, we’ve been out on adventures before; you don’t need to worry!" Li Chengshuo eagerly interrupted as soon as he had finished speaking to end the subject.

"Alright, alright, I won’t say more," Li Zhirui said with a smile, "Then I wish you all that you wish for, and a safe return!"

"When we come back, we will definitely give you a big surprise!"

"Let’s go!"

Having said that, Li Chengshuo transformed into a rainbow light without any reluctance and took the lead in departing.

"Dad, I’m going too," Li Chengsheng promptly followed.

"I’ll come back after I break through the later stages of Nascent Soul," Jiang Fengwu said, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

The three went their separate ways, with Li Chengsheng heading south, Li Chengshuo moving north, and Jiang Fengwu traveling west.

Li Zhirui stood in the same place for a long time before he turned around and went back to the Purification Spirit Realm.

The converging Purification Principle washed away his fatigue. Watching the countless willow branches swaying with the wind, Li Zhirui’s mind gradually calmed down. He wasn’t as sentimental about the departure of Jiang Fengwu and the others anymore, and he resumed his usual routine.

Merging and refining Purifying Primordial Qi, inhaling and exhaling Spiritual Energy, crafting Precious Pills...

He repeated these activities daily, day after day, year after year, yet Li Zhirui relished them and never found them dull or bland.

Immersed in this wholehearted cultivation, Li Zhirui could feel his mastery over the Purification Principle improving, filling his heart with joy.

Perhaps it wouldn’t be long before he had the confidence to venture into The Void for exploration.

Meanwhile, Shen smoothly overcame the Thunder Tribulation to become a third-order Spirit Beast.

The first thing he did after his breakthrough was to return to the space and care for those Spiritual Objects.

Because before Shen’s breakthrough, in order not to disturb him, Li Zhirui did not allow him to enter the space. Now that the breakthrough has passed, and the Spiritual Objects within the space also require care, naturally there were no longer the concerns from before.

Da Qing, Xiaoqing, and Cang were all cultivating laboriously, striving to break through and become Fifth-order as soon as possible!

In Cang Hai Province, Green Sea Sect.

"The Li family’s strength is becoming more and more formidable. I wonder what you all think about this?" The Sect Leader initiated a discussion, posing a question to those present.

"Formidable? A mere Divine Transformation cultivator and five Nascent Soul ones, do these even merit the term ’formidable’?" One of the Elders said disdainfully with a sneer.

"Our Sect and the Li family may be close, but we do not share a border, so there is no need for excessive concern."

Most of the Elders shared a similar view, because no matter the comparison, Green Sea Sect’s strength was still much greater than the Li family’s. What was there to worry about?

And even if it really came to a fight, it wouldn’t be a simple matter.

If they could not achieve complete victory in one strike, it was better not to take action, because offending a Nascent Soul Cultivator could lead to very serious consequences!

Yet, with just three Divine Transformation cultivators, it was very difficult to kill another Divine Transformation cultivator without prior planning.

Thus, even the Sect Leader couldn’t take action forcefully to resolve the Li family issue before they became stronger.

"I know everyone looks down on the Li family, thinking that a small clan that has just revealed a Divine Transformation is nothing special, but regardless, the Li family is the Divine Transformation force closest to our Sect, and they are the only ones with the ability to threaten us."

The Sect Leader wasn’t offended by their disagreement and continued in a measured tone, "So additional precautions are still necessary."

"Understood."

They may have agreed, but their tone was full of perfunctory and nonchalance—they simply did not take the Li family seriously.

The Sect Leader could do nothing about this; after all, you can’t force people.

’Perhaps I’m overthinking it.’ the Sect Leader mused to himself.

He had previously studied the Li family’s records closely and was amazed to find that their growth speed was incredibly fast. They had developed from a small Foundation Establishment family to a Divine Transformation family in just a few hundred years!

For other powers, this would have taken who knows how long. Despite the unstable foundations of the Li family, their rapid growth was undeniable.

What was most important was that the cultivation technique of the Li family was very special, allowing their Contracted Spirit Beasts to catch up with a cultivator’s level surprisingly quickly!

And Li Zhirui had contracted three Spirit Beasts, all of which were already Fourth-order. If they all broke through to the Fifth-order, the Li family’s strength might actually surpass theirs.

At this thought, the Sect Leader suddenly felt some regret. He shouldn’t have incited those cultivators to take action against the Li family. He wondered if the Li family knew about this.

If they did, the two families might have become sworn enemies!

"I’m back again!"

After a long journey that spanned several years, Li Chengsheng finally returned to the Undying Volcano.

He chose the same place that allowed him to break through the Nascent Soul shackles and even obtained the Great Illusionary Dream Fruit, a feng shui treasure.

Most importantly, the environment of the Undying Volcano was very suitable for Li Chengsheng.

However, to avoid meeting acquaintances, Li Chengsheng altered his appearance and concealed his identity, since Great Illusionary Dream Fruits were a very precious resource, and even after so many years, surely some still coveted them.

Meanwhile, Jiang Fengwu and Li Chengshuo also temporarily paused their own journey, starting their cultivation in a certain place.
