Chapter 893: Chapter 899: Perseverance Chapter 893: Chapter 899: Perseverance When Li Zhirui entered the inner vault, he truly realized what a foundation ant!
The space of the inner vault was not much smaller than that of the outer vault, and even though the jade boxes were sealed, Li Zhirui could still sense the rich aura of treasure light.
“You may browse freely,” Zhen Yunzi reminded, “Each jade box has a label attached, along with a general introduction. However, do not touch the jade boxes, as that will trigger an alarm.”
“I understand.”
Li Zhirui nodded. Instead of looking at each one individually, he strode briskly through the aisles, using his Divine Sense to rember the content of all the labels.
Then he walked back to the entrance, closed his eyes, and began to sort through the spiritual objects.
It was then that Li Zhirui realized how many spiritual objects were in the inner vault—two thousand nine hundred and eighty-eight! This was an astounding number.
Most were fifth-order spiritual objects, with a small number of fourth-order and sixth-order ones!
It was understandable that the sixth-order spiritual objects were rare, as the Profound Origin Realm was just a Minor Thousand World and normally could not breed sixth-order spiritual objects.
As for the scarcity of the fourth-order spiritual objects, it was because only the sufficiently precious and rare fourth-order spiritual objects were qualified to be stored in the inner vault!
It took him over an hour, but Li Zhirui finally selected ten treasures beneficial to his cultivation from nearly three thousand spiritual objects.
“Fellow Daoist, can I take a look at those spiritual objects before making a selection?”
Zhen Yunzi pondered for a mont before replying, “If there aren’t too many, it’s possible.”
“Tianxin Wood, Longzhi Mushroom, Qingxin Lotus…” Li Zhirui listed ten nas in succession, slightly embarrassed, “I apologize for the trouble, Fellow Daoist.”
“No trouble.”
Zhen Yunzi used the token to retrieve the ten spiritual objects and opened them one by one for Li Zhirui to observe closely.
After weighing the pros and cons, he said, “I’ll take the Qingxin Lotus, Wind Grass, and Tianxin Wood.”
The Qingxin Lotus and Wind Grass were both fifth-order spiritual objects that Li Zhirui planned to use to contend with the Wind Fire Inner Tribulation. The Qingxin Lotus could not only prevent the yin fire but also clear and calm the mind.
As its na suggests, the Wind Grass could stop the wind and had a certain weakening effect on the yin wind.
The Tianxin Wood was also a fifth-order spiritual object, but its effect was quite special. After it’s shaved and made into incense, burning it could quickly induce a ditative state, calming the mind as if it were the heart of the sky, thus facilitating cultivators’ comprehension of the laws.
However, there were drawbacks; using Tianxin Wood incense for too long could cause confusion and gradually lead to the loss of emotion.
Li Zhirui did not intentionally choose high-order spiritual objects; after all, no matter how high the grade of the spirit objects was, they were of no use to him if he could not use them or if their effects were poor. It was better to choose what was most suitable for himself.
Hearing this, Zhen Yunzi imdiately pushed the jade boxes containing the three chosen spiritual objects towards Li Zhirui and then used the token to lift the prohibitions, “Fellow Daoist, you may now take them.”
Li Zhirui seized this opportunity to plant the Tianxin Wood in his space.
He had another very important reason for choosing the Tianxin Wood: it still had a glimr of life in it and could be planted and grown.
This would be no difficulty at all for Li Zhirui, who had such a space!
In a few hundred years, he would have a luxuriant Tianxin Wood tree; for now, he could only look at the bare branches.
“By the way, you can also think about those three conditions when you have ti,” Zhen Yunzi suddenly ntioned on their way back.
Without hesitation, Li Zhirui replied, “I’ve thought about it already. I would like to enter the Scripture Pavilion and exchange for three manuals that don’t involve your sect’s inheritance.”
“I will report to the Sect Leader and the Elders and follow their instructions.”
Zhen Yunzi was also at the Divine Transformation Realm but was junior in status, and naturally, such matters were not for him to decide.
The Elders were also of different opinions, with so agreeing and others refusing.
Fortunately, in the end, they agreed to Li Zhirui’s exchange.
Therefore, the day after he erged from the treasure vault, Li Zhirui followed Zhen Yunzi to the Scripture Pavilion.
The Scripture Pavilion of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was nine stories high and covered an area of three to four acres, with tens of thousands of Jade Slips inside that made Li Zhirui’s eyes dazzle and overwheld his attention.
This ti, Li Zhirui couldn’t collect and synthesize all the information of the Jade Slips; he could only start with the thods of the Divinity Transformation Realm.
He selected a volu of “Divine Transformation Realm Cultivation Insights”, another was a fifth-order Pill Recipe, and one was the Divine Power thod of Traverse Earth Golden Light.
The Precious Pill recorded in the Pill Recipe was called the Five Elents Great Restoration Elixir, a redy with staggeringly good healing effects that could save you even if you were on your last breath!
Li Zhirui chose it not for its powerful healing effect, but for the potential to break down the Five Elents Precious Pill.
After all, the Five Elents Great Restoration Elixir required too many spiritual dicines, with just the main ingredient needing eight types of fifth-order Spiritual dicine!
If Li Zhirui could separate them, the efficacy would certainly drop, but so would the difficulty and cost of concocting them.
The Traverse Earth Golden Light, on the other hand, was a very good Escape Skill Divine Power; it was said that once mastered deeply, one could easily travel tens of thousands of miles in a day.
With this, besides Li Zhirui’s additional request—to witness Master Dao Tong’s Tribulation Transcendence Ascension—he had no more ties with the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
So in the following days, Li Zhirui shut himself away, cultivating strenuously in his Cave Mansion.
Until more than two months later, Zhen Yunzi ca again, knocking on Li Zhirui’s courtyard door.
“Fellow Daoist, Master Dao Tong will undergo his tribulation tomorrow and invites you to witness it,” Zhen Yunzi maintained his respectful deanor.
“So soon?”
Li Zhirui was startled by the speed; he had originally thought Dao Tong would take a year or two before attempting the tribulation, but it had only been little over two months!
He had been considering finding an opportunity to leave the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and stay in the nearest Immortal City.
Although Li Zhirui was currently at Welcoming Guests Mountain, it was still within the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and not suitable for long-term residence.
Others might not understand Dao Tong’s physical condition well, but Li Zhirui, who had helped him with the removal of the Demon Seed, how could he not know?
Dao Tong’s life span was nearly exhausted, his body was starting to decay, and he had just undergone a treatnt, leaving him enfeebled. This would add difficulty to his tribulation.
“Master Dao Tong insists on proceeding tomorrow; despite our repeated persuasion, he refuses to change the date,” said Zhen Yunzi, his face showing concern.
Li Zhirui comforted, “The senior does not seem like a rash person. Since he dares to set it for tomorrow, he surely has full confidence. You should have peace of mind, Fellow Daoist.”
“Let’s hope your good words co true!”
Zhen Yunzi, filled with worry and not wanting to dwell on it, proceeded to discuss the observation of the tribulation tomorrow. Because Li Zhirui had saved Dao Tong’s life, his position was very prominent, with no cultivators obstructing his view.
After making the arrangents and leaving a ssage to co early the next day to lead the way, Zhen Yunzi hastily departed.
Dao Tong’s Ascension Thunder Tribulation was no trivial matter; the entire Ten Thousand Swords Sect began its operations, ensuring no one would disrupt the tribulation.
The night passed without incident, and the next day, Zhen Yunzi appeared on ti, leading Li Zhirui to the tribulation site.
