Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2109 1524: Chance Encounter (Part 2)

No wonder!

After hearing what he said, Li Zhirui suddenly realized why, after all these years, the Five Elements still maintained the nature of a child.

This is not the heart of a child; it's knowing the world without being worldly, no matter how many storms one experiences, remaining kind and pure. But he is completely ignorant.

To say the least, it shows that he hasn't cared enough for the Five Elements, or he wouldn't have discovered the problem just now.

Such a mindset has both good and bad effects on the cultivation of the Five Elements. The advantage is a simple mind, not easily disturbed by Heart Demons; the disadvantage is a fragile nature, likely to be harmed by a Heart Demon Tribulation!

Li Zhirui did not demand the Five Elements to stay in the space all the time. On the contrary, he hoped the Five Elements could transform and step onto the path of cultivation!

Moreover, since it was born in space and has never left during its growth, it has no karmic ties with the Primal Spirit Realm, so there was no such concern. It can stay in the Void directly.

Thinking about it, Li Zhirui asked, "Five Elements, have you ever thought about leaving the space, experiencing the outside world, improving your realm and cultivation, and becoming stronger?"

"Really?!" The Five Elements' tone was full of longing and expectation; it had thought about this for a long time but never spoken out.

"Of course."

He flashed a gentle smile, saying: "But before that, you must transform, or else how could you walk in the Void and experience it?"

"But I can't transform at all..." The Five Elements said very dejectedly and disappointingly.

Although spiritual energy is abundant in the space, there is no Heavenly Dao or laws, naturally making it impossible to transcend tribulation or improve realms.

Therefore, despite Five Elements living for so many years, it's still at Qi Cultivation Realm when it comes down to it!

But the mana accumulated in its body is not less than that of ordinary Human Immortal Creatures.

To transform, it's certainly not feasible with Qi Cultivation Realm's cultivation. The only way is to leave space, transcend tribulation in the Void, while improving realms and transforming.

Once transformation succeeds, then the Five Elements can leave its main body in the space to continue growing, walking the Void with its transformed body.

But the problem is, as its main body bears the Five Elements Small Realm, it cannot move or leave the space.

Also, if it transcends tribulation in this state, unexpected situations might occur, since who knows if taking a Minor Thousand World to transcend tribulation would enhance the power of the Heavenly Tribulation.

"You don't need to transform your main body!"

Li Zhirui had an idea for this, saying: "Next, instead of nurturing many Spirit Fruits, concentrate all your essence on one Spirit Fruit, improve its grade as much as possible, then forge it into the form of an Acquired Tao Body to transcend tribulation and transform in the Void."

"So, wouldn't this mean I have no connection with my main body?" This method is indeed good, Five Elements was somewhat tempted, but it hesitated to say it out loud after thinking about it.

"How could there be no connection? For this way, your Five Elements Immortal Root becomes your Companion Spirit Root."

"Really?"

"Of course!"

The reason Li Zhirui came up with this method was that he suddenly recalled rumors of a Great Immortal in his previous life, who, due to its main body's excessively high grade, couldn't transform and adopted this method.

However, the exact approach is to deduce the methods first; it can't just be spoken casually and then executed, right?

That would be seeking death instead of transformation!

"Five Elements, now you nurture the Spirit Fruit well, while I deduce the methods for you during this period."

It's unrealistic for it to do this alone, so Li Zhirui had to help.

Anyhow, it's just a transformation method, which shouldn't take much time.

"Thank you, Jiu!" The Five Elements was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked.

"You'll have to cultivate hard during this period."

"Don't worry, Jiu, I'll surely nurture the Tao Body Spiritual Fruit as soon as possible!"

Seeing it confidently agree, Li Zhirui said no more, quickly adjusted his state, and began to seclude himself and deduce the methods.

With a clear goal and direction, this Transformation Secret Technique did not take much time to complete, and he simplified it as much as possible to ensure the Five Elements could understand and easily grasp it.

"Thank you, Jiu! I'll never forget your kindness!" Although there was no transformation yet, the profound gratitude could be heard clearly from the statement.

One must know, this method has given it a brand new bright future, how could it not feel grateful and excited?

"Meditate earnestly, if there's any problem, wait for my next return, and I'll solve them together."

"Okay."

Li Zhirui said nothing more, just nodded and left the space.

Previously he was thinking of experiencing the Void, only to be unable to withstand an encounter with the Profound Immortal Black Snake, forcing him to escape into space to heal.

But the subsequent events consumed a lot of time, now he ventured again, only praying luck wouldn't be so harsh, encountering an undefeatable Chaotic Being.

Luckily, this time fortune wasn't bad; during a more extended period, Li Zhirui did not run into many fierce beasts, but those he did see had strength far beyond his, prompting a hasty retreat, avoiding injury.

Among these, there were two Chaotic Beings of similar strength to him; he burst into fierce battles with these two fierce beasts respectively.

After the two battles, Li Zhirui's results were one win, one loss.

Each battle was intense, neither side showing mercy and aiming to kill the other.

However, after all, it's a Profound Immortal; wanting to kill it is too hard. Upon realizing it was at life risk, the opponent fled without hesitation.

Li Zhirui did the same, to avoid severe injury requiring lengthy treatment, seizing opportunities to vanish into the vast chaos when clearly outmatched.

Thus, after the fights, Li Zhirui did not obtain Spiritual Objects, but still had significant gains.

The best way to understand one's strength is through actual combat!

He has now completely mastered the strength of the Profound Immortal Realm, next is to find ways to bolster himself.

...

One day.

Boom——

From not far in the chaos, suddenly came intense battle sounds.

Li Zhirui did not go to join the excitement, for if it's a trap, it's way too dangerous.

Yet, some things can't be avoided just because you don't want them.

Soon, he watched as a stream of light flew across in front of him, then swiftly turned back, pulling Li Zhirui along to flee into the distance.

Roar!

Before Li Zhirui could speak or break free, a stench of wild wind reached them, and the fierce beast was very close behind.

He turned to look, the fierce beast resembled the Mountain Lord Tiger, king of beasts, and indeed was very near.

To enable a smooth escape, Li Zhirui unhesitatingly obstructed the tiger, preventing it from catching up.

And the creature carrying him, noticing this situation, revealed a smile, with such interference, it could escape pursuit with ease.

Unhesitatingly accelerating again, easily leaving the hindered tiger far behind, soon completely out of sight.

"I'm Fu Chengguang, greetings Fellow Daoist!"

He bowed in courtesy, saying: "Thanks to Fellow Daoist's assistance, otherwise, I wouldn't have escaped so easily."

"I'm Li Zhirui."

Li Zhirui returned the gesture, "With Fellow Daoist's strength, shedding the fierce beast was only a matter of time."

He noticed the other was also a Profound Immortal, but slightly more powerful in cultivation than himself.
