Li Zhirui ignored their scrutinizing gaze and focused solely on inspecting the condition of the Demon Vein.
At first glance, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
"Ancestor Rui, is the situation very dire?" Li Xianxun couldn’t help but ask upon seeing this.
"Yes, the Spirit Vein has been contaminated for too long and has likely turned into a complete Demon Vein."
As he spoke, he released his Divine Sense to investigate the interior of the Demon Vein, while cautiously wrapping it with Purification Spiritual Light to avoid Demonic Qi contamination.
The clash between the Purification Spiritual Light and the Demonic Qi was like water eting fire, each striving to annihilate the other.
The Demonic Qi churned violently, attempting to contaminate and devour the Purification Spiritual Light, but the light stood unmoving like a stabilizer amidst the turbulent waves, protecting the Divine Sense as it delved deeper into the Demon Vein.
The observing cultivators remained silent, but their faces involuntarily showed a hint of surprise because many had previously tried to probe the Demon Vein, only to be blocked by the dense Demonic Qi.
So cultivators might force their way in, but feared contamination by Demonic Qi, making purification a troubleso task, so they dared not attempt it.
However, seeing Li Zhirui’s performance now sparked curiosity among several cultivators, but as he was deeply focused and unable to be distracted, they could only watch silently.
After a while, Li Zhirui withdrew his Divine Sense, showing a hint of fatigue on his face, but he appeared visibly relieved, saying, "Fortunately, it’s not the worst scenario; the core of the Spirit Vein hasn’t been completely contaminated."
Thankfully, the Cave Abyss Sect discovered it not too late and acted decisively, leaving a glimr of hope for this Spirit Vein.
"From your tone, Fellow Daoist, do you have a way to resolve this and purify this Demon Vein?" a Human Immortal cultivator suddenly asked.
Li Zhirui glanced at him, responding calmly, "Having a way doesn’t an it will certainly succeed; after all, my cultivation is still too low."
In truth, he was quite confident in purifying this Spirit Vein, considering that compared to the Sea Eye, its grade was too low.
Despite insufficient cultivation, he could rely on a large number of Purifying Spiritual Objects to quickly gather a batch of Purification Principles for his use.
He said so rely to wait for the Cave Abyss Sect to step forward and offer more generous and specific conditions.
One must know that the bounty order spread throughout the East Continent doesn’t specify the rewards, only stating that different grades and quantities of Spiritual Objects will be given based on the resolution level.
Such vague bounties, Li Zhirui would not take on lightly.
What if the other party shalessly offered random Spiritual Objects as bounties, rendering his previous efforts in vain?
"How confident are you, young friend?" In the next mont, an Earth Immortal from the Cave Abyss Sect stepped out, asking kindly.
Clearly, he understood Li Zhirui’s underlying hint of wanting to negotiate terms before taking action.
"Seventy percent, and with a supplent of a large number of Purifying Spiritual Objects, the success rate can be increased further!"
At least a seventy percent certainty...
Hearing this, the Earth Immortal didn’t hesitate any longer and said, "Great! As long as you can completely purify this Spirit Vein, the Cave Abyss Sect allows you to choose three Spiritual Objects from their treasury."
Whether or not it was sothing major forces had agreed upon beforehand, it was identical to the conditions once offered by the Dragon Tribe!
But admittedly, this offer was very tempting; for major forces, it didn’t require much effort, and often the chosen Spiritual Objects weren’t of great worth.
Of course, if your vision is astute enough, you could certainly select treasures from the treasury that would cause them great distress!
"Are you satisfied with this condition, young friend?"
"Of course, I’m satisfied," Li Zhirui nodded, "But your sect still needs to prepare a large number of Purifying Spiritual Objects since my cultivation is inadequate and I need external support to ensure more confidence."
"Alright, young friend, you’ve traveled exhaustively, take a good rest tonight, and tomorrow we’ll trouble you to take action."
"Alright."
With such favorable conditions, he certainly wouldn’t refuse.
He then departed with Li Xianxun to gather with the clansn.
"Uncle Master, do you think that Li Zhirui can really solve this Demon Vein that’s perplexed so many people?" a curious Individual Immortal asked.
"Since he said so, I’d think he has great confidence, otherwise he’d be deceiving the Cave Abyss Sect?"
Deceiving a Heavenly Immortal force is no trivial matter.
"But he’s rely a Human Immortal, coming from a small family, how could he possibly surpass so many of us?" the Individual Immortal stated sowhat indignantly.
Although his cultivation wasn’t as high as Li Zhirui’s, his privileged background allowed him to stand tall; perhaps to them, the Realm of Human Immortality was insignificant, sothing they’d eventually surpass.
"You are worlds apart from him," his Uncle Master said bluntly, not sparing his feelings.
Li Zhirui’s origins might be humble, but to have led a small Mortal Realm family to its current state within a few millennia is sothing almost no cultivator of his generation in the entire East Continent Immortal Tao achieved!
Hearing this, the cultivator’s cheeks flushed imdiately; he hadn’t expected his Uncle Master to be so frank, giving rise to a sense of resentnt.
However, it was not towards his Uncle Master, but towards Li Zhirui!
Even though Li Zhirui didn’t know him nor spoke to him, the resentnt was just that inexplicable.
