Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan
Chapter 1301 - 1119: Stop_2

Chapter 1301: Chapter 1119: Stop_2

Whoosh—whoosh—

After about a quarter of an hour, Li Zhirui could no longer hold on, his face somewhat pale. If not for Li Zhixuan’s timely support, he might have collapsed directly.

"Jiu, are you okay?"

Li Zhirui waved his hand and softly said, "It’s nothing, just a bit of over-exertion of Divine Sense. I’ll be fine after some rest."

"Hmm, take care of your cultivation and strive to advance to a higher divine rank. Consider these Precious Pills as a reward from the Clan Leader."

After catching his breath and regaining some spirit, he gave Ju He a few instructions.

"Yes!" Ju He dared not oppose and obediently accepted the Spiritual Objects.

"Let’s go."

Li Zhixuan nodded and took Li Zhirui flying away.

"Finally gone! Although still under someone else’s control, at least they’re gone, regaining some freedom." Ju He felt both his body and Spiritual Soul relax significantly.

As for reporting the two to the Sea Clan?

Ju He initially had such thoughts, but considering that if he leaked anything, he might lose his life before he even saw their two human corpses, he had no choice but to give up.

After all, his life was under their control, and with just a single thought, they could explode the wisp of his Spiritual Soul and the imprint within it, taking away his life.

"Take it one step at a time." Finally, Ju He sighed, calmed his mood, and helplessly sank back into the Water God Mansion.

...

A day later, Li Zhirui and Li Zhixuan returned to Mount Wanxian.

As soon as they returned, Moon Serpent came looking, said solemnly, "I need to return to Taiyin Star."

"Hmm?"

Li Zhirui asked, "Has something happened?"

"A major issue is being discussed within the Divine Path, and it’s now at a crucial moment. As the Taiyin Star God, I need to be present."

"Shuo mentioned this the last time he came back."

Moon Serpent nodded but didn’t explain the details.

"How are you planning to deal with the Catastrophic Qi on you when you go back like this?"

"Once the matter being discussed in the Divine Path is resolved, the Catastrophic Qi will dissipate on its own."

Li Zhirui raised his eyebrows slightly, seeing Moon Serpent’s reaction, it seemed they could resolve the Catastrophic Qi of all Divines. Although the Catastrophic Qi associated with Divines wasn’t much, when accumulated, it certainly wasn’t too little.

Is the Divine Path planning something significant?

Unfortunately, neither Li Chengshuo nor Moon Serpent could disclose it. Without sufficient information, it was impossible to deduce the plans of the Divine Path.

"In the short term, it probably won’t affect the Immortal Tao."

After saying this, Moon Serpent transformed into a wisp of Moonlight and soared towards Tianming.

"That means, in the long run, it will inevitably affect the Immortal Tao?"

Li Zhirui shook his head, temporarily suppressing these thoughts. Rather than wasting time on this, it was better to complete his previous plan.

And that was to learn from the Sea Clan and perform Divine Enthronement!

However, his ambitions were not as grand as the Sea Clan’s, and the strength and foundation of the Li family did not support him in having too large ambitions.

What Li Zhirui thought of was to enshrine the mountain and water Divines controlled by the family in Shanhai State!

He could even further simplify it, only enshrining the Divines of major mountains and rivers.

As for the steps of Divine Enthronement, the required Spiritual Objects, ceremonies, etc., Li Zhirui had long known from Ju He, after all, it was an eyewitness back then.

And when he left, he requested to observe the Divine Talisman, also intending to further understand and perfect his ideas.

Li Zhirui’s conception was influenced or stimulated by the Sea Clan.

He didn’t want suddenly, one day, some unknown Divines to appear on the family’s territory.

Rather than that, it was better to act first, actively enshrining Divines, letting the family members serve as Divines!

In this way, the hidden worries Li Zhirui feared would be gone, and it would allow him to better control the entire Shanhai State.

To gain family support, he convened a family-wide meeting to share his ideas and future visions with Li Yunchang and the Elders.

The so-called vision wasn’t just Li Zhirui drawing large promises, because after becoming Divines, the increase in lifespan was real, and climbing the Great Tao on another path was also real.

After all, as cultivators, most people’s desires are longevity and power.

"Ancestor Rui, how confident are you in this?" Li Yunchang was also very tempted. He might be able to advance his cultivation one step with the Clan Leader’s position, but it would only be to Mahayana.

And he was fully aware that without other opportunities, he might just stop there.

Now seeing a brand new path, he naturally wanted to give it a try, not knowing if he had mediocre talent in the Immortal Tao, but might be exceptionally gifted as a Divine?

Ancestor Rui mentioned that cultivating as a Divine means maintaining the stability of the Laws, doing more beneficial things for the world, and if one could accomplish world-changing feats, they could possibly receive the favor of the Heavenly Dao.

"Seventy to eighty percent sure."

This was the result Li Zhirui mentioned out of caution, although he was quite confident, as the difficulty of enshrining a Divine didn’t seem to be that hard.

"If that’s the case, then I agree!"

Many Elders raised their hands, facing issues similar to Li Yunchang, or even more severe, as the latter had hope for advancing to Mahayana, whereas they might not even reach this step.

"I need nine hundred ninety-nine pieces each of five-colored Spirit Stones, nine Spiritual Objects not lower than eighth grade, incense burners worshiped by one hundred thousand people, ninety-nine sticks of Spiritual Incense..."

Li Zhirui immediately listed the required Spiritual Objects. The quantity was not only large but also varied. The Li family could collect them, but it would take considerable time.

"We will immediately arrange for family members to collect the Spiritual Objects."

Li Yunchang paused, then asked, "Ancestor Rui, should we mobilize some Loose Cultivators?"

After all, with the involvement of Loose Cultivators, the speed would definitely be faster.

Li Zhirui was about to refuse when he suddenly remembered the major issue discussed by Li Chengshuo and Moon Serpent regarding the Divine Path. He vaguely sensed that once this matter concluded, it would surely impact the private enshrinement of Divines.

"Okay, but don’t let anyone take advantage of the situation."

"Rest assured, we will monitor it." Li Yunchang promised.

Hearing this, Li Zhirui said no more and disappeared promptly.

Meanwhile, Li Yunchang and the Elders hastened to perfect the matter so the family members could start taking action early.

The following day, all family members still on Mount Wanxian received the new task from the family to collect the respective Spiritual Objects.

Not only that, but they also mobilized some Loose Cultivators with clear backgrounds.

In this period, Li Zhirui and Li Zhixuan were not idle either. They searched for Individual Immortal Realm beings near Shanhai State to resolve all their Catastrophic Qi as soon as possible.

Fortunately, during the major catastrophe, the once rare Individual Immortals were now not so uncommon.

After a period of searching and defeating three Individual Immortal Realm Devil Beasts and two Demon Cultivators, the two of them finally felt totally relieved.

"Finally accomplished!"

Li Zhirui expressed with emotion. They hadn’t rested well for months, continually striving to resolve the Catastrophic Qi.

Li Zhixuan was also happy because during this period of frequent battles, her realm had significantly improved.

However, Li Zhirui still didn’t rest for a moment. After returning to Mount Wanxian, he immediately started setting up the Deification Altar and various ceremonies.

In this regard, Jiang Fengwu, a master of formations, was the most professional.

Notably, in just about a month’s time, the family collected so many Spiritual Objects, thanks to everyone’s concerted efforts to complete the task early.

Finally, when the altar and ceremony were ready, waiting for the last step, Li Zhirui rested for a night to refresh himself.

Early the next morning, every informed family member gathered around the square where Li Zhirui was present.

Ahead of them, several dozens of family members were already present.

Obviously, they were the ’Divines’ chosen by the family.

Li Zhirui didn’t participate in the selection, but he knew it was fairly done, as everyone chosen had made significant contributions to the family’s development.

Therefore, although some family members were dissatisfied, they only complained a few words, without causing a bigger conflict.
