Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2068 1503: Transcendence

Li Debo was taken aback by the question, momentarily doubting if he had really messed up the timing.

But he eventually said, "The time is still early, let's wait a bit longer, it's just these few days anyway."

The Elder no longer said anything, after all, it only cost a bit of time.

However, the cultivators outside didn't have such patience to continue waiting, as more and more people started to leave.

The Li family did not take this matter seriously.

Whether those cultivators stayed or not was irrelevant, and as for their complaints, the Li family couldn't hear them.

By afternoon, the once crowded area now showed few traces of cultivators.

And just when everyone had waited a day, holding little hope, ready to leave, Li Zhirui emerged from the cave mansion.

"Didn't expect to stir up so many people, seems I've kept you waiting today."

Then he turned his gaze to Jiang Fengwu, saying, "When did Fengwu return?"

"Just these last few months."

"That's quite a coincidence." The conversation between the two ended abruptly.

Li Zhirui didn't chat with anyone else individually, he simply smiled at everyone, taking out two storage magical treasures, saying, "Within these are all my life's insights and reflections in cultivation, along with all sorts of spiritual objects and pills I've prepared, to settle my karma with the family."

This includes not only cultivation, but also insights into the Alchemy Dao and laws, which are very precious.

"Ancestor Rui, your contributions to the family are well recognized, everyone knows, no need for these spiritual objects. On the contrary, the family owes you, you should take them back." As the head of the family, Li Debo hurriedly stood to represent the family's stance.

Li Zhirui only chuckled and shook his head, saying nothing more, just saying, "Take them; consider this my last bit of goodwill towards the family."

"Yes." Li Debo opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to begin, he could only respond, then silently accepted the two storage magical treasures.

And when Li Zhirui successfully handed over the storage magical treasures, he felt a relief, as if a heavy burden was lifted.

Next, he flew up into the air, starting to expend merit to resolve his karma with the Primal Spirit Realm.

As his merit dwindled, Li Zhirui's body felt lighter, giving a sense of becoming almost immortal.

Yet at the same time, the heavens began to reject him, as if his existence was unwelcome, wishing to cast him out.

The outward manifestation was Li Zhirui rising unceasingly, but it wasn't his action, rather the heavens pushing him out.

Unlike Li Zhixuan, Li Zhirui did not feel any threat during this process.

Moreover, no Heavenly Dao Laws emerged, nor were there any anomalies present.

Just as he thought he would peacefully resolve his karma with the Primal Spirit Realm and achieve transcendence, the Heavenly Dao suddenly appeared!

Then, within Li Zhirui's sea of consciousness surged a strong sense of retention, hoping he would stay in the Primal Spirit Realm, not leave.

This abrupt and strange change made him subconsciously frown, causing his body, originally ascending to the skies, to halt.

Logically, when Heavenly Dao manifests, and laws emerge, it's beneficial to enhance one's realm, thus it's best to seize this time for comprehension.

But many tribe members disregarded this, for in outsiders' eyes, this scene was Li Zhirui encountering troubles during the transcendence.

"Would the Heavenly Dao interfere when a being transcends?" Qingpeng said solemnly.

Though they would no longer see Li Zhirui, he didn't wish for his brother Jiu's anticipated transcendence to fail.

Li Chengsheng, knowledgeable in this regard, shook his head, saying, "The existence of a Heavenly Immortal is a huge pressure for the Primal Spirit Realm, so whenever beings transcend, Heavenly Dao does not obstruct."

In fact, if not for needing them to repay karma, Heavenly Dao would rather cast out most Heavenly Immortals directly, not let them stay in the Primal Spirit Realm.

"Then what's the situation?"

Everyone was puzzled.

Only Li Zhirui, who 'communicated' with Heavenly Dao, knew the reason.

The reason was quite simple, it was that Heavenly Dao favored him, hoping he would stay in the Primal Spirit Realm, occasionally cleaning and purifying the Polluted Sea, alleviating the realm's pressure so that the world can focus all its energy on enhancing its grade.

Simultaneously, Heavenly Dao also promised him, as long as he stays, Heavenly Dao will fully open the Law Origin place for him to freely comprehend.

Moreover, whenever he breaks through his realm in the future, he would face no tribulations, like breaking through small realms, directly breaking through.

Faced with Heavenly Dao's generous offers, Li Zhirui remained unmoved, his mental state as calm as an ancient well, without any ripple.

These conditions were indeed generous; for other Heavenly Immortal cultivators, it truly might not be possible to resist such temptations and agree.

But Li Zhirui firmly refused Heavenly Dao's invitation.

The reason was simple: he didn't want to be constrained here, as the path would be too short, only up to the Profound Immortal Realm!

Moreover, with his current realm, if he wanted to break through, it actually wouldn't take much time at all, as for tribulations during breakthrough, Li Zhirui was confident he could safely pass.

Waiting until he breaks through to Profound Immortal, spending tens of thousands of years raising his realm to perfection, then halting, this wasn't what he wanted, nor was it his pursuit.
