"There’s no need for formalities, everyone."
As Li Chengsheng spoke, the celestial phenonon of the sun and moon shining simultaneously above Mount Wanxian vanished, and the residue of its brilliance lifted everyone up.
In the next instant, Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo, who were previously in the air, appeared seated cross-legged on the two Cloud Beds closest to the Preaching Platform, waiting for Li Zhirui’s entrance.
Before long, the protagonist of this celebration suddenly appeared on the Cloud Boat at the Preaching Platform.
Apart from the few Heavenly Immortals, no one else knew how Li Zhirui appeared there. Everyone just blinked, and he was already sitting there.
Even those Heavenly Immortals couldn’t help but feel a hint of surprise, as such a technique was not sothing a newly breakthrough Heavenly Immortal could master!
"Thank you all for attending my Heavenly Immortal Ceremony. My family has prepared a few Spiritual Objects for this occasion; I hope you won’t find them lacking."
As Li Zhirui’s words concluded, the family mbers, who had rehearsed countless tis, entered in perfect formation, carrying trays. Their movents were fluid yet ticulous, exuding an elegance with a touch of precision, creating a unique sense of beauty.
In just a mont, the Cloud Beds in front of each cultivator were filled with nine varieties of Spiritual Objects, placed on Jade Plates and covered with bowls to seal in spiritual energy and heat.
"Please, help yourselves and enjoy the al at your leisure."
As he spoke, Li Zhirui took the lead in lifting all the bowl covers, and instantly, a rich fragrance wafted through the air, even causing him, who had fasted for countless years, to feel his appetite surge.
Among the nine Jade Plates, the main dish was a bowl of Earth Immortal Rank Spirit Rice from the Nine-Colored Jade Valley.
The main course consisted of three dishes: one made with a Phoenix-type Demon Beast at the Earth Immortal Rank, plus a Lingzhi at the Earth Immortal Rank, stewed together; another of Three Treasures Soup brewed from three Earth Immortal Rank Spiritual dicines; and the last dish, Dragon and Tiger Fight, created with two Earth Immortal Rank Flood Dragons and White Tigers.
The Spirit Food was prepared by the Li family’s sole Spirit Chef at the Realm of Human Immortality. Despite his cultivation, he couldn’t cook Earth Immortal Rank Spirit Food, relying entirely on precious Spiritual Objects to forcibly elevate the grade.
The remaining five Jade Plates contained four different Earth Immortal Rank Spirit Fruits.
When Li Zhirui lifted the last bowl cover, revealing a disk-shaped Spirit Fruit with various Dao patterns on it, the originally composed Heavenly Immortal from the Cave Abyss Sect suddenly stood up and asked in shock, "Fellow Daoist, is this the Eight Diagram Treasure Fruit?"
"You’re very perceptive, Fellow Daoist. It is indeed the Eight Diagram Treasure Fruit."
"But wasn’t such a Heavenly Immortal Spirit Fruit extinct tens of thousands of years ago, disappearing from the Primal Spirit Realm?" the Heavenly Immortal hurriedly inquired.
"A fortunate encounter yielded a Spirit Seed. It took considerable effort to cultivate it successfully."
Li Zhirui smiled and said, "Later you may taste it personally and see how it compares to the Eight Diagram Treasure Fruit described in ancient texts."
The other two Heavenly Immortals, upon hearing the words ’Eight Diagram Treasure Fruit,’ snapped to attention, discarding any semblance of composure, and swiftly uncovered all the bowl lids, their eyes fervently fixed on the Spirit Fruit resting quietly on the Jade Plate.
"Fellow Daoist, luck is with you!" The Heavenly Immortal from the Cave Abyss Sect appeared convinced by this explanation, though his true thoughts remained known only to him.
"Fellow Daoist, you’re magnanimous! Thank you for your generous gift!" The other two Heavenly Immortals sincerely praised.
The Eight Diagram Treasure Fruit is exceptionally rare, as it significantly enhances a being’s comprehension over a millennia—it is a top-grade Spiritual Object!
Even before its extinction, it was sought after by countless beings as a supre treasure, its value unquantifiable. For example, when you are stuck at a bottleneck, consuming an Eight Diagram Treasure Fruit will greatly enhance your comprehension over the next thousand years, increasing the likelihood of a breakthrough.
And such precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Li Zhirui generously gave away three of them!
The three Heavenly Immortals did not consu the fruit, instead carefully sealing it in a Jade Box for later use when the need arises.
Li Zhirui did not mind, as all Spiritual Objects at the banquet had undergone Fusion Spirit Skill, with no Spirit Seeds retained, making it impossible to grow them even if taken away.
The Heavenly Immortals found the Spirit Food exceptionally rich and precious, while the Spirit Food on the Cloud Beds in front of the Earth Immortals, Human Immortals, and Individual Immortals also stunned them, causing them to marvel at the Li family’s generosity.
They dared not imagine how many Spirit Stones this banquet must have consud!
Perhaps it isn’t even asurable by Spirit Stones, as so Spiritual Objects cannot be bought, no matter how many Spirit Stones you possess.
As the songs began to play and dances comnced, everyone started to savor the delicious and enriching Spirit Food before them.
Due to the rich spiritual energy contained in the Spirit Food, the scene was rather quiet after dining, with none of the usual revelry or clinking of glasses that might be expected.
Everyone was focused on refining the spiritual energy from the Spirit Food, unwilling to waste any, with no ti to spare for other matters.
After all, the post-banquet session holds the ceremony’s most critical segnt, and they don’t want to miss this major opportunity.
About several hours later, Li Zhirui spoke softly, "Next, I will discuss the relationship between mana and the Spiritual Soul, hoping it will aid in your cultivation."
He naturally wouldn’t share insights into breakthrough realizations—these are treasured secrets ant to be passed down through his lineage, not sothing to be freely revealed.
However, what he was about to share would still offer so valuable insights for cultivation.
