Capítulo 1971: Chapter 1454: Inventory (Part 2)
If the Li family truly manages to develop such a thod, then now they may only have three or four Heavenly Immortals, but after a few thousand years? Wouldn’t they have as many as we do? Or even surpass the Cave Abyss Sect?!
“No! We must accurately investigate what the Li family has done to the Outer World, and what plans they have after gaining such a large amount of rit this ti!” the sect leader ordered sternly.
All the elders realized the seriousness of the problem; even those few elders who underestimated the Li family fell silent at this point.
Because if the Li family really mastered such a thod, then perhaps in a few thousand years, their strength may indeed surpass ours!
As for the main character of this incident, the Li family remained completely in the dark regarding the Cave Abyss Sect’s reaction for the ti being.
However, if they knew what the Sect Leader and Elder Council of the Cave Abyss Sect were thinking, one could only wonder how they would react.
Because the Li family had never considered this aspect themselves; they rely wanted to repay as much karmic debt as possible by sacrificing to the Outer World, making it easier for Li Zhixuan to transcend.
However, speaking of which, whether it is worthwhile to use the thod of sacrificing to the Outer World to nurture a Heavenly Immortal is still debatable.
Because if it’s a Minor Thousand World, the grade is low, and not much rit can be obtained; but if it’s replaced with a Middle Thousand World, the price of conquering such a world becos rather high!
In that case, it would not be very cost-effective.
…
After a period of investigation, the Cave Abyss Sect confird that the recent slight evolution of the world was indeed caused by the Li family.
They also learned that the rit the Li family gained from sacrificing to the Outer World was not used to help a Peak Earth Immortal Cultivator break through to Heavenly Immortal, but rather for Li Zhixuan to transcend as soon as possible!
When they first heard this claim, their initial reaction was disbelief.
After all, the vast majority of transcending Heavenly Immortals choose to grind their realm, cultivation, and strength until they can progress no further before considering this issue!
But how long has it been since Li Zhixuan broke through to Heavenly Immortal? Not even a thousand years!
Moreover, almost half of that brief ti was spent in the Outer World, with no possibility of any improvent at all—how could she choose to transcend so quickly?
Even if she herself were willing, would the family that worked so hard to cultivate her really let her go so soon? Wouldn’t they want her to stay and contribute more to the family?
One must know, a Heavenly Immortal of great ability, and one who is also a Sword Cultivator adept at slaughter—Li Zhixuan’s very existence is an imnse deterrent!
Despite every reason to doubt, since the Li family had not deliberately concealed the news, after verifying it from multiple sources, they were forced to believe this absurd, yet factual, report.
And even having accepted it, they still could not understand.
However, the investigation brought an unexpected harvest: the Cave Abyss Sect discovered a new way to utilize the Outer World!
No longer just for nurturing spiritual objects, it could also be offered as a sacrifice to gain rit.
As for how to use the rit, the mbers of the Cave Abyss Sect believed it should not be wasted like the Li family, but used to nurture Heavenly Immortal cultivators.
But what they failed to notice was that, although their series of investigations escaped the Li family’s attention, they did not go unnoticed by the spies of other factions monitoring the Cave Abyss Sect.
Especially the Yun He Family and the Xiaxian Sect from the south—they too obtained much intelligence from this, forming their own plans.
Regarding all these, the Li family remained completely oblivious.
But even had they known, they would not have cared; much less could they control others.
…
Mount Wanxian.
After receiving Li Zhirui’s instructions, Li Xiuyuan imdiately assembled people to organize all thods from the Floating Light Realm, and delivered them to his cave mansion.
“So soon? Has it already been compiled?”
When he received the ssage, he harbored so doubts, thinking the clan mbers, in their haste, might have missed so parts.
After all, only half a year had passed since his request!
The family wasn’t rely defeating a particular force, or even a few—it was an entire world. Although many thods had not been collected, having been destroyed by their owners,
this occurred mainly among the Immortal Tao; as for the Demonic Tao and Devil Race, since they surrendered, the loss was not so great. It was still a staggering astronomical number.
Yet as Li Zhirui looked through the catalogue, he was surprised to find that his clansn had indeed omitted so content, but these were mostly artifact refining, talisman making, formation and the like—cultivation skills that had little to do with him.
“No wonder!”
If that’s the case, he could understand why the family had managed to sort everything so quickly.
Li Zhirui had no objection to this, since he himself had never studied these cultivation skills, and there was no need to put his mind to them.
Calming his heart, he began to review the thods from the Floating Light Realm.
Naturally, he first perused the high-level cultivation thods—whether from the Demonic Tao, Devil Race, or Immortal Tao—he viewed them all equally and with careful attention.
What Li Zhirui sought was not how profound or mysterious these thods were—they were, after all, only thods of the Human Immortal grade from a Middle Thousand World. He cared more for the intention behind these thods!
Regrettably, even the most advanced thods of the Floating Light Realm failed to impress him; they were all extrely ordinary, commonplace contents.
Fortunately, Li Zhirui was ntally prepared, so he did not feel disappointed. On the contrary, he selected several barely passable thods that, if the family had spare capacity, could be assigned for research or deduction.
Even if one could not obtain a Heavenly Immortal-grade thod, it should at least be possible to deduce an Earth Immortal-grade thod from their underlying intentions. At worst, keeping them in the scripture hall to broaden the experience of the clan was still worthwhile.
Li Zhixuan then continued reading, but now his pace increased greatly.
As one jade slip after another was picked up, only to be put down just as quickly, a pile of jade slips rapidly grew next to him, stacking ever higher.
No one knew how much ti had passed, nor how many jade slips he had reviewed, when at last—fatigued as he was—he ca across a thod whose underlying conception made his eyes light up!
This thod ca from the Devil Race, specifically from a beast with a rather low-grade bloodline, which, by a fortuitous chance, broke through to Loose Immortal.
Because of his bloodline, he was long stuck at the Loose Immortal grade, unable to advance, so he thought of using a thod to make up for this defect!
Through many experints, his bloodline was indeed enhanced.
Unfortunately, before he succeeded, the Li family invaded the Floating Light Realm, and he perished on the battlefield.
Luckily, several copies of the jade slip recording his thod survived. When looting a certain Devil Race mountain after the war, a clansman found a backup, preventing its loss.
What attracted Li Zhirui to this thod was, of course, that way of evolving bloodlines—which would be helpful for the Chaotic Divine Demon Body secret thod he was deducing!
One must know, the Chaotic Divine Demon Body was also a kind of special bloodline—the higher the bloodline’s concentration, the more perfect the body would be.
With this unexpected gain, Li Zhirui was instantly refreshed and all fatigue vanished.
Unfortunately, his good luck ended there!
Among the next several thousand jade slips, none of the recorded thods made his eyes brighten; he rely set aside a few that were barely acceptable.
Once all the various thods had been read, only jade slips describing pill recipes, history, and such remained.
As for these, Li Zhirui read through them even faster.
He quickly compiled so rather decent pill recipes, though he had no ti to study them himself and would hand them over to the clan for handling.
After nearly ten years, he had finally finished reviewing all the jade slips.
The harvest was scant, but Li Zhirui was already satisfied—after all, these were beings whose greatest attainnt was only Human Immortal realm. The gulf in strength was so great; for there to be anything of use to him was already quite remarkable.
He placed the sorted jade slips into different storage artifacts, left them by the door, and when the ti ca, soone from the clan would naturally collect them.
As for himself, what he had to do next was further perfect and advance the thod to improve his bloodline.
