Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2197 - 1568: Guidance (2)

However, Li Zhirui did not give them much time to think. With a wave of his hand, he gathered the willing children onto the Spirit Boat and immediately set sail, leaving.

The remaining children were bewildered, not realizing the great opportunity they missed. Even their parents and elders didn’t know that their hesitation led both sides down two entirely different paths.

Subsequently, he took these children to the next city to recruit more disciples once again.

For the next day, he was traveling back and forth, doing this work, bringing all the eligible, willing servant disciples, hundreds of children in total, back to Ascension Mountain.

Additionally, there were some mortals responsible for taking care of these children, such as cooks, kitchen staff, and laborers, along with a large quantity of grain, meat, and other food.

Li Zhirui had long been fasting, but these children who hadn’t even achieved Qi Cultivation could not go hungry.

Meanwhile, during his days away from the mountain, Wansheng was not idle either, starting to build various constructions on the mountain, like dormitories, dining halls, and teaching halls, spending an extremely fulfilling time.

Most importantly, the grade of the Spirit Vein on the mountain was greatly enhanced, making the Spiritual Energy even denser.

"These children will be entrusted to you, Wansheng, for care and preliminary instruction."

Many of them couldn’t even recognize characters, let alone the meridians and acupoints necessary for cultivation. Moreover, they needed preliminary physical training, not to mention daily care.

In short, these are really complex, troublesome, and very trivial, time-consuming tasks.

Creating a force from scratch is indeed that complicated and difficult.

And this is even considering that Li Zhirui possesses extremely strong power, complete inheritance, and abundant Spiritual Objects. If it was truly starting from zero, the difficulty would increase several times, even tenfold!

However, he personally doesn’t have time to handle these tasks as he needs to focus on refining his cultivation technique and seek to advance his realm to make further progress in his cultivation.

After all, the main reason he was willing to accept the inheritance was that it could aid his own cultivation, rather than occupying his training time.

Fortunately, Li Zhirui has a very competent assistant who doesn’t need rest or cultivation and can manage these small matters around the clock, possessing sufficient strength and understanding of cultivation to guide the children in their initiation.

"Understood, Sect Leader!"

Wansheng gladly agreed but then had some confusion and asked, "But wasn’t the Sect Leader advocating quality over quantity, so why bring back so many disciples?"

Actually, logically speaking, when a sect recruits disciples, besides the initial Spiritual Root test, there would be a few assessments later, such as testing willpower and disposition, checking if undercover agents from other forces were sent.

But at the early stage of Tongtian Sect’s reconstruction, these could be simplified.

If there were any ingrates or undercover agents, with Li Zhirui’s strength, as soon as they were exposed, they would be eradicated directly.

"Most of them are servant disciples, but don’t treat them differently; treat everyone equally. The sect isn’t short on Basic Spiritual Objects."

Saying this, he took out several Jade Slips and a few Storage Magical Treasures, instructing, "The Jade Slips contain the Basic Body Refining Technique, Breathing Method, and Visualization Skill. Once they master the three Basic Techniques profoundly, then teach them the ’Upper Pure Heavenly Gang Earth Sha One Hundred and Eight Diagrams · Volume One’."

The ’Upper Pure Heavenly Gang Earth Sha One Hundred and Eight Diagrams’ can lead directly to the Individual Immortal Realm, including various accompanying spells, Divine Powers, and Life-bound Magic Treasures.

And ’Volume One’ only contains content up to Divine Transformation.

"These Storage Magical Treasures contain some Basic Spiritual Objects to expedite the disciples’ cultivation. You can decide how to use them."

The quantity of this procurement is extensive, enough for several years.

Once it’s used up, those low-level spiritual objects planted by the sect should have matured, allowing self-sufficiency without further external purchases.

"You’ll have to work hard for the next period."

After Li Zhirui clarified all this, he entered the Cave Mansion with the densest Spiritual Energy to begin secluded cultivation.

What he needs to do now is to use the Golden Immortal Realm cultivation method ’Upper Qing Dao Scripture · Volume One’ to refine his own created ’Pure Lotus Hidden Dao Scripture’.

Compared to the Profound Immortal Realm cultivation method ’Long Bright Dao Sensing Scripture’ he received earlier, the ’Upper Qing Dao Scripture’ is more comprehensive and complete. Most importantly, its high-level perspective is incredibly easy to understand, quickly resolving issues he previously encountered.

He was initially unable to integrate the aspect of strengthening the Spiritual Soul from the ’Long Bright Dao Sensing Scripture’ into his own cultivation method, but now Li Zhirui has found the way.

Moreover, during the contemplation of the ’Upper Qing Dao Scripture,’ his realm has also seen considerable advancement.

Meanwhile.

At Ascension Mountain, Wansheng also began teaching those children, laying a solid foundation for future cultivation.

This process, for these young children who lack self-discipline, is incredibly boring and tedious; most people cannot persist for long.

But those who can persist, from a certain perspective, are more suited to embark on the path of cultivation.

Obviously, this is merely the current stage, and doesn’t necessarily mean it will remain unchanged.

However, Wansheng still kept a close watch on these few, preparing to observe their future performance, as they could potentially become the leaders among this generation of disciples.

After a period of teaching and training, he began imparting some of the children with the Breathing Method and Visualization Skill, guiding them on the path of cultivation.

The first child to become a Qi Cultivation Practitioner took almost two days.

Is it much? Indeed, it’s a lot!

In the Great Thousand World of the Tao Spirit Realm, especially with Ascension Mountain enhancing its Spirit Vein, the Spiritual Energy is considered dense, yet this cultivation speed is relatively slow.

This shows that the first batch of disciples recruited by Li Zhirui indeed does not have outstanding aptitude.

After the first, Qi Cultivation Practitioners emerged one after another.

Thus, Tongtian Sect finally made its first step.

Even though this step was small, at least it marked the beginning.

...

Just as Tongtian Sect quietly developed, in the nearby cultivation world, many cultivators already knew of this suddenly established force and were quite curious about it.

"Liang Country?"

Upon hearing this news, a cultivator exclaimed in astonishment, "That region with thin Spiritual Energy, and even its mortals have lower aptitude compared to other places, how could a force choose to establish a sect there? What were they thinking?!"

"Some cultivators always think they are extraordinary and aim to challenge the heavens."

"However, there are not many suitable places to establish sects or clans now, so perhaps the other party decided to gamble."

After all these years of development by various factions, there are almost no Lands Without Master in the Tao Spirit Realm.

Therefore, wanting to establish a sect or clan often involves renting a Spirit Vein with Spirit Stones, and occupying an unclaimed Spirit Vein is nearly impossible.

Even if there is, it exists in places like Liang Country, which inherently have flaws, and others are unwilling to visit.

"Why not start a betting pool to see how long this force can last in Liang Country?" A meddlesome cultivator exclaimed loudly.

Unexpectedly, someone actually did it and swiftly set it up.

Several time brackets were divided, with odds lowest for ten years, slightly higher for thirty years, and even higher for fifty years.

Only two brackets were over a century, namely one hundred and three hundred years, with odds of one to ten and one to twenty, respectively.

However, no cultivator chose to place bets on these two brackets, for a simple reason: no one believed this force could endure for such a long time.

The final outcome would disappoint all cultivators participating in this pool, as Tongtian Sect indeed established itself here, and it was permanently rooted in this place!
