Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2029 1483: Celebration (2)

The faces of most of the loose cultivators were also filled with surprise and delight. Just these two kinds of spiritual objects were worth the trip, not to mention this was merely an appetizer!

This made them all the more eager to see what other spiritual items the Li family would prepare next.

After the loose cultivators entered, it was then the turn of the Li family's vassal factions from within Shanhai State—starting from the weaker vassals, ending with the Wind Breath Clan.

In truth, the Wind Breath Clan wasn't the most powerful vassal of the Li family, but their relationship with the Li family was much closer and more intimate than with any other faction, so naturally they were arranged to enter last.

Afterwards came the Earth Immortal powers who had received invitations, each arriving with rather precious spiritual objects as gifts.

Only then did it come to the Heavenly Immortal powers, such as the Cave Abyss Sect, and others.

From this point, entry order was no longer arranged by strength. Instead, whomever arrived first, sat first.

After all, the Heavenly Immortal powers invited by the Li family—like the Cave Abyss Sect, Yumen He Family, Xiaxian Sect—were all top-tier factions, and the Li family didn't really know how their power ranked.

Since such top powers always hide part of their true strength in the shadows.

If they were to arrange by rank carelessly, it might inadvertently offend someone, so it was better to do it by arrival order.

"Cave Abyss Sect presents a Three Lights Jade, wishing the Spirit Ancestors Qingpeng and Qingcang a bright future on the Great Tao!"

"Xiaxian Sect offers a Seven-colored Flowing Light Immortal Robe, hoping Spirit Ancestors Qingpeng and Qingcang will advance even further!"

At the same time, the Li family arranged a ceremonial gift-offering segment for the Heavenly Immortal powers, mainly to give them full honor.

To be fair, the congratulatory gifts they sent were quite precious, not items one could casually obtain among Heavenly Immortal rank objects.

And nearly all invited Heavenly Immortal powers came!

Honestly, this outcome exceeded Li Debo's expectations. He had thought four or five Heavenly Immortal powers attending would already be great, but unexpectedly, every single one showed up!

Fortunately, he had prepared backup plans and avoided any awkward situations.

The entry alone for all these cultivators took several hours.

But by hurrying along, they managed not to miss the most auspicious hour.

Bong—

A long and resonant chime echoed out, and even the sun seemed to cooperate with the Li family, casting a golden ray over Mount Wanxian, making it appear draped in gilded robes.

Then, the All Heaven Stars within the Mountain Protection Array burst forth in myriad-colored spirit light, immersing everyone in the splendid beauty.

"The Heavenly Immortal Ceremony officially begins!"

All sorts of spiritual objects, long prepared, were carried out in an orderly fashion by one Li family cultivator after another.

Before each Heavenly Immortal cultivator was a lone jade plate, holding three small jade boxes, appearing slightly meager.

Though a few Heavenly Immortals showed a hint of disdain in their eyes, none made it too obvious.

Until someone opened a jade box, and found within a flawless, perfectly round pill etched with the markings of the Tao.

"Hiss! A top-grade Heavenly Immortal rank spiritual pill!"

Even with his experience and mental state, he felt utterly shocked at this moment.

He then opened the other two jade boxes filled with anticipation, only for a trace of disappointment to flicker in his eyes. He knew it was impossible for all three to be top-grade pills, but when faced with the result, disappointment was inevitable.

But the other two pills were still quite good—both top-grade, with minimal impurity.

It's just that, with the top-grade pill beside them, they paled into insignificance.

"The Li family is truly extravagant!"

Even knowing the Li family had Li Zhirui, a Great Alchemy Master of Heavenly Immortal rank, the Heavenly Immortals couldn't help but marvel.

There were fifteen Heavenly Immortals present, which meant the Li family had directly gifted fifteen top-grade Heavenly Immortal pills, and thirty top-grade pills.

Though not everyone was skilled in alchemy, none could be unaware of its difficulty—obtaining a single top-grade pill not only depended on skill but also luck, to an extent.

The Li family had spent untold years and countless batches of pills to produce these fifteen top-grade pills.

Yet what they didn't know was, for Li Zhirui, top-grade pills were nothing—far less precious than everyone imagined.

Had he not feared suspicion and put the clan at risk, Li Zhirui could easily have produced a mountain of top-grade pills.

The Earth Immortal cultivators' banquet in front of them seemed far more abundant.

However, compared to that single top-grade pill—even with all kinds of spiritual objects laid out on the cloud beds, spirit lights gleaming across them—it simply didn't have the same allure.

As for the Human Immortal and individual immortal cultivators, their spiritual food was of a much lower grade, so the quantity was the highest.

To them, mana was much more important. As for realm and further advancement, that was something not relevant for their stage.

So for the Li family to lavish so many spiritual objects upon them was genuinely advantageous.

When everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the celebration reached its most crucial moment.

The Dao lecture!

This time was particularly special, as there were two Heavenly Immortals giving the lecture.

Qingcang took the lead, speaking on the Law of Water he had mastered—not going too deep, but focusing on several water element divine powers.

Even so, many cultivators benefited greatly.

When Qingcang finished, Qingpeng immediately took the stage, covering roughly the same topics—though swapping in the Wind and Thunder Law.

Bong—

As a deep drum sounded, today's celebration officially came to an end.

Many cultivators still felt unsatisfied, but both Qingcang and Qingpeng left directly, and no one remaining could continue the Dao lecture and teachings.

Besides, the Li family had a grand auction planned. Many cultivators were quite curious what rare treasures the Li family would put up for bid.

From this celebration alone, it was clear—the Li family might not be an old-school Heavenly Immortal Clan, but their foundation was deep, able to bring out countless precious spiritual items across grades from Loose Immortal to Heavenly Immortal.

"Honored elders and fellow Daoists, if you wish to attend the auction, please follow me."

Soon, Li Debo appeared before the crowd, smiling as he spoke.

His enthusiastic invitation received an equally enthusiastic response from many.

Even penniless loose cultivators followed behind the crowd; they may not be able to buy, but could still broaden their horizons. If luck smiled on them in the future and they found a rare spiritual object, perhaps it would be thanks to this auction that they recognized it, and then harvested it.

The auction was not far away, and with spirit boats shuttling guests, they quickly arrived at the auction hall.

"Due to limited space, if you do not intend to bid, please stay outside!"

Li Debo apologized sincerely, then added, "Of course, there is live projection outside; everyone can watch the auction proceedings. If a spiritual object catches your eye, you can also join the bidding from outside."

"At the same time, the clan has prepared more than a thousand stalls. If you have spiritual objects to sell, or want to barter, you can do so at the stalls."

The Li family had truly considered every angle.

Having said this, Li Debo entered the auction hall, with clan members outside taking over management.

It wasn't long before the auction hall was packed with cultivators.

A single auctioneer walked out from backstage, holding a tray draped with red cloth, containing the first lot of the day.

Lifting the red cloth revealed the precious spiritual object within.

"Chaos Spirit Jade!"

The auctioneer began to introduce it: "A piece of precious jade, polished in the Void by chaotic spiritual energy over countless years. It doesn't have any particular element, but perfectly harmonizes with all attributes. Whether for forging a magical treasure or other uses, it is the ideal substitution!"

Whoa—

The hall erupted in a cacophony of voices: some gasped, some exclaimed in surprise, some grew so excited they jumped to their feet.

But none of these people were qualified to compete for the Chaos Spirit Jade, since they lacked sufficient spirit stones—and cultivation.
