Chapter 973: Chapter 955: Hope_2 Chapter 973: Chapter 955: Hope_2 The two clans were already mortal enemies, now the only rivals left, and they even thought of talking about fairness? It was just too naive.
Li Zhirui followed the crowd into the Taixu Illusionary Realm and felt the world spinning and his head dizzy, almost throwing up.
Fortunately, this feeling was only montary, and he quickly sensed himself standing on solid ground.
As countless creatures entered the Taixu Illusionary Realm, within the Earth Spirit Realm, the dark sky suddenly flashed with shooting stars, drawing the attention of nurous native creatures.
“Upper Realm Cultivators!”
An old Daoist who seed to know much was sitting in ditation on a still beautiful Spirit Mountain, looking up at the shooting stars that continued to streak across the sky like a downpour of heavy rain, muttering in his heart, ‘The slim chance for my Earth Spirit Sect lies among them, but on whom?’
“Upper Realm Creatures!”
“I thought we could only wait for death, but I didn’t expect such an opportunity!”
The more the world fell, the stronger the power of the Demonic Tao grew, and many Demon Cultivators took advantage of the world’s collapse to wildly harvest cultivation resources, then ascended or forcibly left the world before plumting into the Ruinous Void.
But those Cultivators and Sea Clan who had just landed had no idea they were already being watched!
So unlucky beings, still unclear about their surroundings or even muddled in consciousness due to the transmission, were imdiately struck dead by head-on attacks.
Fortunately, Li Zhirui wasn’t so unlucky, but his luck wasn’t particularly good either.
He landed in the middle of a dead wasteland and within the range of his Divine Sense, he didn’t see any sign of life!
But Li Zhirui’s face showed a hint of joy, and he even used a flying escape technique to circle around for hundreds of miles, finding not a single creature!
Wrong!
There were a few creatures! Those who, like him, ca from the Primal Spirit Realm to guide the beings of their own realm, the Cultivators, and the Sea Clan.
Those Cultivators, seeing him flying away and sensing nothing but barren land around them, a place of death unlikely to have any Spiritual Objects or legacies, all began moving away.
And those Sea Clan creatures disliked the dry environnt even more, not wishing to stay a mont longer.
One of the Sixth-order early stage Sea Clan creatures, upon leaving, encountered Li Zhirui, who was scouting the area. With a strange laugh, it said, “I didn’t expect to co across a Cultivator so soon, your head is mine!”
Opening its mouth, it spat out a surge of cold tide that quickly spread, turning everything in its path instantly into ice sculptures.
“Who gave you the audacity to speak so boldly?” Li Zhirui’s brows furrowed, and his Life-bound Magic Treasure, Thousand Spirits, flew out, transforming into a Sky-Lifting Great Wood that directly suppressed the Sea Clan creature, grinding it into the earth.
In this strike, he didn’t hold back at all, because Li Zhirui didn’t want to be entangled with the opponent, wasting his own ti, and the Sea Clan creature did not expect his reaction to be so intense. Wanting to defend, but because of the haste, it couldn’t withstand the attack.
“A Swallowing Water Whale?”
Li Zhirui looked at the battered corpse with a trace of pity on his face, thinking that if he had known it was following him, he should have been gentler.
“Good thing, the stomach sac wasn’t damaged.”
After searching through the pile of flesh with his Divine Sense, he extracted a large stomach sac and casually placed a few prohibitions on it, successfully refining it into a Fourth Order Magical Treasure.
Li Zhirui’s Artifact Refining skill was quite poor; otherwise, a good Sixth-order Spirit Material wouldn’t have ended up as a re Fourth Order Magical Treasure in his hands.
But after testing its function, he nodded in satisfaction and said, “Let’s call you Life Water Bag.”
This roughly made Magical Treasure had only one function: to absorb the moisture from the heaven and earth on its own and purify it, creating clean ordinary water.
He had just explored the surroundings and discovered that the further southwest he went, the worse the condition of the land, even giving off a faint and unpleasant stench.
Li Zhirui did not venture too deep into it but simply found a valley surrounded by mountains on the edge and stopped there.
He took out a large number of Purifying Spiritual Objects from his space, crushed them, and a thick Purifying aura instantly spread out. Under Li Zhirui’s control, it turned into Purifying White Lotuses one after another, rooting into the earth, purifying the withered, decaying atmosphere.
Then, Li Zhirui took out the Life Water Bag and placed it in the riverbed, which had long been dried up, and a gentle stream slowly spread out.
With a thought, he placed those tangible lotus seeds into the stream, and then perford a Divine Power to grow the white lotuses in an instant.
In just a few hours, the valley that had already beco a land of certain death was once again brimming with life!
And this simple act alone caught the attention of the Earth Spirit Realm’s Heavenly Dao!
For it saw hope for the world’s continuation!
It turned this hope into substantial support.
The originally crudely made Fourth Order Life Water Bag had now rged with the Law of Living Water, its grade leaping forth to beco a Seventh Rank Magical Treasure, capable of producing clean water directly without needing to absorb moisture from the air and earth.
As for Li Zhirui himself, he felt as though his mana had increased by dozens of tis, giving him the sensation that it couldn’t possibly be depleted.
“What a pity!”
Unfortunately, Li Zhirui was not a native of this realm, and his actions were rely for the purpose of gathering more power for future world integration, in order to obtain the complete “Myriad Spirits Scripture,” not to save this dying world.
Besides, how could the destruction of a Middle Thousand Worlds possibly be reversed by Li Zhirui alone?
However, he did not refuse the goodwill of the Heavenly Dao, because it was more conducive to his subsequent actions, and, moreover, it couldn’t be refused.
Initially planning to rest for a mont, Li Zhirui, with the blessings of the Heavenly Dao, imdiately dismissed this thought and only used a bit of mana to activate the Life Water Bag, while he himself focused on cultivating the Purifying White Lotus with all his might.
After all, he had tens of thousands of lotus seeds in hand—if he ran out, he could just cultivate dozens more within his space.
He could also utilize the external decay and destructive energy to generate lotus seeds through the secret lotus cultivation techniques, without worrying about running out of seeds.
Li Zhirui chose this valley largely because of the dried-up riverbed that flowed towards the southwest.
In other words, he didn’t even need to venture deep into it to use the riverbed to spread the Purifying White Lotus and cleanse more lands of death and utter desolation.
Li Zhirui believed that with just ten years, or even less, he could tip the scales of victory towards the cultivators, integrating their realm into Cave Abyss State!
A tale of two blossoms, each on a separate branch.
Elsewhere in the Earth Spirit Realm, things were far from peaceful, with the conflicts between cultivators and the Sea Clan, cultivators and local beings, and the Sea Clan and local beings making war incessant, with major battles erupting at every mont, claiming the lives of countless beings.
And the rich Death Energy, blood energy, Evil Qi, and so on, spawned by the massive battles, further accelerated the world’s destruction.
Amidst this, there were those who laughed heartily.
Those were the local Demon Cultivators!
With more Cultivation Resources available, their pace of Cultivation increased significantly, and within just a few months, a large number of Demon Cultivators had broken through their realms.
Such significant effects further stimulated the Demon Cultivators’ determination, making them abandon everything in pursuit of more Cultivation Resources.
No matter what the thod!
Outside the Taixu Illusionary Realm, several Immortals from the Cave Abyss Sect and a few from the Sea Clan were seated cross-legged among the clouds, looking down at the situation below.
Although their realm prevented them from entering, they were still able to see what was happening inside.
When they saw the Demon Cultivators stirring up chaos in the world, their expressions darkened, for the more severe the world’s degradation, the less they would gain after its integration into the Primal Spirit Realm.
Now that both sides saw this Middle Thousand Worlds as sothing within their grasp, they naturally did not appreciate these mad destroyers.
“Eh?!”
“How is this possible!”
The forr was an exclamation of surprise from those Immortal Realm Cultivators, while the latter’s cry of disbelief ca from the Sea Clan Immortals.
And the reason for their strong reactions was that the Taixu Illusionary Realm below had started moving! Moreover, it was moving incredibly fast!
The direction it moved towards, naturally, was Cave Abyss State.
