Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 1233 - 1085: Involution_2

"This matter must not be leaked! You are also forbidden from discussing it privately!" Li Zhirui instructed sternly.

"Understood! We won’t!"

Li Chengshuo has stumbled upon a tremendous opportunity, enabling him to ascend directly into immortality. Yue and Howling Moon share the same fate, even though their existence might be confined to Taiyin Star. But their presence alone is enough to intimidate many factions.

This is extraordinarily favorable for the family, benefiting all its members. Why would anyone want to sabotage it?

"Just inform us of any news that shouldn’t be made public."

After the others departed, only Li Zhirui, Jiang Fengwu, and Li Chengsheng remained in the cave mansion.

"Father, Mother, you must already know about the Era of Great Strife."

Li Zhirui nodded and said, "I once gathered some information during my training in Kunlun State. Simply put, the Era of Great Strife is a catastrophic event that impacts all living beings in the Primal Spirit Realm!"

"Indeed, just as Father said."

Li Chengshuo nodded first, then added, "But this Era of Great Strife might be far more intricate and perilous than ever before."

"The Star God I mentioned earlier is likely to be one of the factions involved in this Era of Great Strife."

Unfortunately, she is not yet a Star God. Her knowledge about their numbers and power remains insufficient, otherwise, she could provide more valuable information.

"You’re overthinking it."

Li Zhirui shook his head and reminded, "Without Immortal Realm strength, one has no qualifications to participate. They can only be swept along with the waves!"

"If, when the time comes, you all can leave Taiyin Star or reach the Immortal Realm, then the family might still have a chance to become one of the players in this chessboard."

At this point, Da Qing interjected, "Chengshuo, do you know how long it is until the Era of Great Strife arrives?"

"It should be within the next few hundred years, certainly no more than a thousand." Li Chengshuo considered carefully before giving his assessment.

"Jiu, do you have confidence in transcending the tribulation and becoming immortal within this timeframe?"

Li Zhirui shook his head. "It’s not that simple; I can only progress step by step." fгeewebnovёl.com

Cultivation is often unpredictable, and breakthroughs cannot always be guaranteed within a set timeframe. Life is full of uncertainties, after all.

One might be desperately trying to overcome a bottleneck one day and find unforeseen opportunities to break through the next.

"Don’t rush; take it slow. Our family already has shallow foundations, achieving our current scale is already remarkable."

Although they regularly emphasized the Li family’s lack of resources, it still depended on comparison with others!

Compared to traditional Integration-level factions with legacies spanning thousands of years, the Li family may fall short in terms of Void Refinement and Integration cultivators’ numbers. Yet for cultivators in other realms, the gap isn’t so stark.

"I’ve stored everything I know into jade slips. If you’re free, take a look and come up with some ideas."

That said, the jade slips contained little new information. After all, Li Chengshuo had yet to attain the status of a Star God.

"Strength is the foundation of everything. Everyone should focus on improving their cultivation; that’s the true path forward." With these words, Li Zhirui dismissed the group.

Because Li Chengshuo was about to ascend to Taiyin Star and become an Individual Immortal, the Integration-level clan members felt immense urgency and threw themselves into cultivation even more fervently.

Especially Li Chengsheng, as his elder brother born of the same parents. Faced with Li Chengshuo’s situation, he couldn’t offer any help, leaving him deeply frustrated.

The highest-level cultivators in the family practiced with newfound dedication, inspiring a family-wide surge in cultivation effort as many members took notice and were spurred into action.

Meanwhile—

Baiyun Sect.

"What a mistake we made by not inviting the Li family to join forces earlier! Now we’re stuck in this quagmire, leaving the sect in a dilemma." The Sect Leader admitted regretfully.

Back then, they had considered forming an alliance. However, they hesitated to involve the Li family due to its expansive territory and the prospect of relinquishing even more land once rebellious factions were subdued.

The Elders feared this would improve the Li family’s luck and elevate its status, so they rejected the idea.

Now, however, they regretted it profoundly!

Especially after hearing that Li Chengshuo broke through to Mahayana and that the Li family now had two Mahayana cultivators.

But alas, it was too late for regret.

Moreover, the Li family had never considered agreeing to Baiyun Sect’s proposal to begin with.

Factions currently engaged in conflict with Baiyun Sect were actively investigating whether the Li family had sided with Baiyun Sect.

Learning that the Li family had no intention of intervening, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the Li family didn’t interfere, their wars with Baiyun Sect would continue dragging on!

Though this prolonged struggle caused immense losses for both sides, it also left Baiyun Sect embarrassed and humiliated.

The Li family, on the other hand, chose not to join due to its broader vision, disdaining this level of collaboration.

Rather than wasting time and sacrificing lives for mere thousands of miles of territory, the Li family preferred to invest their efforts in cultivation and advancing their strength.

Such was the prevailing mindset among the Integration-level members of the Li family.

And this sentiment continued to spread, gaining acceptance among an increasing number of clan members.

...

Time flew by, and over a decade passed swiftly.

Baiyun Sect’s attempts to forcefully expand its influence had failed miserably, leaving chaos and disgrace in their wake.

Of course, the veteran Integration-level factions involved in the conflict also suffered significant losses!

However, as the tides turned, Baiyun Sect lost its nerve and refrained from taking further action, fearing the factions might retaliate with desperate, self-destructive measures.

Compared to the active and attention-grabbing Baiyun Sect, the Li family remained eerily quiet, with no notable news spreading to the outside world.

But soon, that would change!

On this particular day, the skies were clear and cloudless, when suddenly two ominous black thunder tribulations emerged in the heavens above the towering Mount Wanxian.

"How could there be simultaneous breakthroughs on the same day?!"

Li family members were initially dumbfounded upon realizing the cause. Such an occurrence had never happened before in the family, as everyone knew that thunder tribulations were highly sensitive and would escalate in strength with even the slightest disturbance!

Thus, whenever anyone prepared for a breakthrough, they would always remain within formations that masked their aura and confirm no one else was attempting to overcome tribulations before proceeding.

Who would’ve expected this unprecedented scenario? Two family members simultaneously triggering tribulations without first seeking approval or guidance!

"Thankfully! The two Spirit Ancestors’ thunder tribulations haven’t negatively influenced one another!"

After closely observing the phenomena, one clan member heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Mount Wanxian had undergone substantial development over the years, particularly during Spirit Vein upgrades, which expanded the mountain significantly. Otherwise, accommodating tribulation sites for both individuals wouldn’t have been feasible.

Immediately, the clan members commenced separate tasks, ensuring the area was cleared posthaste. No external interference could be allowed to disrupt Yue and Howling Moon’s tribulations.

Upon receiving the news, Li Zhirui, Jiang Fengwu, and others exited seclusion to confront the dual black clouds hovering in the east and west. Each group quickly sprang into action.

Thunder boomed—

Before long, the first bolt of tribulation thunder crashed onto Yue and Howling Moon’s bodies.

Yet even such lightning posed no threat to them!

Both their physiques had undergone extensive refinement under the wash of Taiyin Moonlight, transforming them into Taiyin Divine Dragon and Moon Swallowing Celestial Wolf! Such beings possessed ninth-grade bloodlines!

With their formidable bodies, how could they possibly fear a weakened thunderbolt?

Under the astonished gaze of uninformed clan members, Yue and Howling Moon endured nine consecutive bolts with their bare flesh!

Though they utilized some divine powers during the process, they ultimately relied on their bodies to neutralize the tribulations.

Not to flaunt their physical prowess, but to further temper and enhance their bodies while stimulating their bloodlines.

"The might of the Spirit Ancestors’ physiques is truly terrifying—they can withstand tribulation thunder directly!"

"If only I could possess such a strong body, wouldn’t future tribulations be effortless?"

Lower-level clan members murmured among themselves, their voices brimming with amazement and envy.

Yet Li Zhirui and others remained somber, devoid of the joy that typically accompanied the emergence of Mahayana cultivators in the family.
