Such strange and unusual circumstances naturally aroused the curiosity and investigation of various factions, who wanted to find out the reason behind it.
The main reason was still the aftereffects caused by the Demonic Tao secretly polluting the Spirit Vein in the past. All factions were very worried whether soone was plotting or scheming sothing.
But no matter how they investigated, whether sending the Earth God deep into the Earth or enlisting the Heavenly Immortal to deduce the secrets of heaven, they could not find a trace of evidence, as if the phenonon was just an accident.
This also alard the Divine Path, and even Ziwei personally attempted to deduce the secrets of heaven, wanting to know what was going on, but the result remained blank.
They only vaguely knew that this incident had no harm to the Primal Spirit Realm; rather, it seed to have a positive impact on the world’s developnt.
As for the entire Primal Spirit Realm, probably only a few from the Li family knew what was happening.
"It seems Jiu has already started to purify the pollution," Xiaoqing said with a relaxed expression.
Li Mingyao breathed a huge sigh of relief, "Ancestor Rui truly lives up to his na. Probably only he can accomplish this, and it shouldn’t be long before he returns."
As Divines, they naturally ensure the safety and developnt of the entire world, and now that a great threat has been resolved, they are, of course, very pleased.
Yet, they did not publicize this matter, and even more strictly kept it a secret. Although this could significantly boost the prestige of the Li family, it could lead to so unfavorable events!
For instance, if the Demonic Tao found out, they might link it to the last pollution of the Spirit Vein, causing a chain reaction. If those maniacs polluted the Spirit Vein again, it might result in more severe consequences!
Moreover, the Li family’s strength is insufficient. Their current reputation and prestige are enough; there’s no need to expand further. After all, true strength is the foundation. Possessing formidable reputation and prestige without matching power might turn them into tools in others’ hands.
This is not how they want the Li family’s future to unfold.
In order not to appear abrupt, even though they knew in their hearts what the phenonon was caused by, they still put on a show of investigating it.
anwhile, at the deepest, most crucial part of the Earth.
Li Zhirui continued slowly purifying the pollution on the Earth Core, while the Earth Elent Lady quietly remained at his side as a protector.
However, this was just the surface situation; secretly, she was preventing factions from investigating.
Of course, the Earth Elent Lady didn’t employ any mighty techniques, for here, there are natural restrictions set by the Heavenly Dao, blocking all divine sense probing.
At most, she concealed so traces left by the two of them from before.
anwhile, Li Zhirui’s purification was not getting easier over ti—instead, it was becoming increasingly difficult and troubleso!
The main reason was that when he started, he chose to tackle the easier parts first, leaving the most severe pollution in the Earth Core for last.
Originally, in a perfect state, Li Zhirui could purify two polluted black lines, but now he couldn’t solve even one. He had to temporarily boost his power by consuming a large quantity of Immortal Pills, and only then could he clean at least one completely.
The consequence of this was that he would need more ti to recover his mana and Spiritual Soul.
And when only the last three polluted black lines remained, Li Zhirui discovered that even consuming a large number of Immortal Pills couldn’t clear them all at once!
"Lady, I fear your assistance will be needed next."
He, of course, was unwilling to give up. Besides, these three areas of pollution were extrely severe. If not resolved in ti, the corruption might soon invade the Earth Core, creating an enormous crisis that he would be completely powerless against.
Thus, he devised a plan: since he couldn’t solve it all at once, he would tackle it in stages.
However, during the gaps between these stages, soone would need to maintain the Purification Spiritual Light, separating the corruption from the Earth Core to prevent pollution, and also to stop the polluted black lines from absorbing the Earth Core’s power.
And this person, there was no other choice but the Earth Elent Lady, this powerful Great God whose divine position spanned both Earth God and Yin God domains!
Moreover, this Lady’s dominion included aspects related to the Purification Principle, although she hadn’t diverted her attention to comprehend it deeply before, aning her mastery was rather shallow.
But Li Zhirui estimated that with her imnse power, even if her understanding wasn’t profound, she could forcibly maintain the Purification Spiritual Light!
"What should I do?" The Earth Elent Lady did not refuse but directly asked.
"Lady, you just need to maintain the Purification Spiritual Light, preventing the corruption from breaking through and falling back into the Earth Core."
Li Zhirui said, "I will recover my strength as quickly as possible and take over from you."
"Understood," the Earth Elent Lady agreed without hesitation.
Actually, she had been ntally prepared for this beforehand, having personally inspected every instance of polluted black lines; observing Li Zhirui’s previous endeavors, she could easily deduce that it would not be easy for him to resolve the pollution issue.
Therefore, during this period, she devoted a portion of her spirit to urgently comprehend the Purification Principle, which improved her level of mastery.
"Please proceed, Lady."
Li Zhirui expressed gratitude before focusing on dealing with the polluted black lines.
With the massive consumption of mana and Divine Sense, radiant and intense Purification Spiritual Light appeared in his palm, slowly enveloping the pollution, separating it from the Earth Core, before gradually eradicating it.
