Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

Because of the grand actions of the immortals, each faction displayed its unique abilities and eventually obtained the method of traversing worlds.

They also knew the importance of this method, so after succeeding, they learned from the lessons of the immortal path and were not arrogant at all. They immediately concentrated their efforts to ensure the supply of everything and devoted themselves to proving the secret method.

For a moment, the entire Yuanling Realm fell silent.

But beneath this quiet is another war preparedness race!
Moreover, it is unknown how long this peace will last, but it is conceivable that when the next major war breaks out, the situation will be even more tragic.

The Great Qian Dynasty keenly sensed the impending storm and felt immense pressure. The Great Qian Dynasty's response was manifested in its more aggressive approach towards the world beyond its borders!
Originally, their main focus was exploration, and they only intended to conquer the small world of the imperial experiment. But now, they plan to conquer two medium worlds!
At the same time, it accelerated the refinement of the teachings of the various schools of thought, so that they could conquer the world and acquire more resources, especially population and territory, which are the two most important factors for humanity, at a lower cost.

The Great Qian Dynasty paid a considerable price to get all the philosophers of the Hundred Schools of Thought to give their all.

Therefore, the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty led his civil and military officials to build the Golden Jade Platform. Regardless of background or age, even if you were a death row inmate, you could save your life as long as you had the ability!
The news caused a stir throughout the entire Southern Human Realm.

In a short time, many people who considered themselves to be great talents, or who were truly talented, flocked to the Great Qian Dynasty!

By the time other humanitarian forces realized what was happening and began to imitate them, it was already too late; a large number of talented people had already poured into the Great Qian territory.

……

Wanshan Mountain, Li Family.

Various rumors circulated outside, with people calling on friends and relatives to join forces to explore the outer world, but the Li family remained relatively calm internally.

Since Clan Chief Li Xiuyuan restricted the spread of these matters within the clan, they didn't need to do these things. They only needed to quietly wait for the secret method to be successfully deduced, and then follow the main force to the outer world.

The Li family only had some young members who, due to their limited experience of the world, were easily misled by the slogans of the rogue cultivators.

Fortunately, before they could take any action, Li Xiuyuan found out and decisively locked them all up, promising to release them whenever they had thought things through.

The reason why the outside world is so crazy is mainly because the rogue cultivators have learned the secret method of traveling between worlds, but those low-level rogue cultivators have nothing to do with it.

This means that they are not qualified to enter the outer world!
Without anyone else needing to say anything, they themselves understand that if things continue to develop this way, their chances of achieving upward social mobility will become increasingly slim.

But who can be blamed for this? The independent cultivators themselves don't know how to unite and form a force, even if it's just a loose alliance, they would still be qualified to participate.

Of course, the reason why the independent cultivators did not unite was also due to certain forces. They did not want to see this situation and naturally wanted to obstruct it in secret.

However, this time, faced with enormous profits, the independent cultivators from several states eventually formed the Heaven and Earth Alliance and sent a few people to the nearest top-tier power, hoping to get involved.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, Fellow Daoist Zhang, Fellow Daoist Wang... you are all rogue cultivators, what are you doing here?" An elder in charge of reception frowned after seeing the appearance of the visitors.

These individuals are quite well-known among independent cultivators, and their strength is also considerable.

“Fellow Daoist Hu, we are no longer independent cultivators, but have gathered independent cultivators from five states including Sanming Prefecture, Requan Prefecture, and Guangyu Prefecture, and formed the Heaven and Earth Alliance.”

"what?!"

Hu Luanming exclaimed in surprise, then paused before asking, "Are they all the rogue cultivators from the five states?"

"No, this alliance was formed in a bit of a rush. Only a little over 20,000 independent cultivators have joined so far. As our reputation spreads, perhaps more independent cultivators will join in the future."

Hu Luanming frowned. More than 20,000 independent cultivators was a considerable number, enough to rival some medium to large forces.

Moreover, if other independent cultivators see the benefits, they will definitely flock to it, and before long, the number of members of the Heaven and Earth Alliance will skyrocket!
The only weakness of the Heaven and Earth Alliance is its lack of high-end combat power; the cultivators with the highest cultivation levels are just a few of them, the Human Immortals.

He thought about it for a moment, but ultimately shook his head and refused, saying, "This is not appropriate. You are a group of rogue cultivators."

Why can't independent cultivators participate?

Ye Di's expression darkened slightly, and he frowned, saying, "You said before that we had no power to rely on, but now that we do, you're calling us rogue cultivators? Are you playing us for fools?"

"What kind of attitude is this?!" Hu Luanming looked extremely offended, his face turning very ugly.

Cultivators from powerful backgrounds, especially large ones, often look down on independent cultivators, thinking they are very weak and like locusts, lacking any morality or quality.

Moreover, the fact that many cultivators stopped in their tracks because of the commotion while the group was discussing the matter in front of the mountain gate only fueled his anger.

"What attitude am I? This is my attitude! So what! If you, Hu Luanming, have the guts, then just kill me!" Unexpectedly, Ye Di also had a fiery temper and actually said such serious things.

The cultivators who came with him quickly tried to dissuade him, saying, "It's not that bad! It's not that bad!"

"Brother Hu, Brother Ye was just saying that in anger, don't take it to heart. Since the Heavenly Spirit Sect doesn't agree, then we'll take our leave."

How dare these rogue cultivators, who are like rootless duckweed, talk back to the disciples of powerful forces?
After saying that, he tried to pull Ye Di, whose eyes were red, away from this place of trouble.

"Young friends, please wait a moment."

Suddenly, a deep, resonant voice rang out.

Then, an old woman with white hair slowly appeared and said, "You want to study the method of traveling between worlds, right?"

"Yes, that's right, senior."

"In that case, please follow me." The old woman smiled gently, turned around, and led everyone into the mountain gate.

Hu Luanming was taken aback and couldn't understand it at all. He quickly said, "Senior Uncle Hua, they are just a group of rogue cultivators. How could they be qualified..."

"This has nothing to do with you anymore, go back." The old woman waved her hand to interrupt him and chased him away, telling him not to get in her way.

A cultivator from the Earth Immortal realm brought Ye Di and his group, who successfully joined the group. However, they were assigned to different locations and the content of their deductions differed.

The news that Tianling Sect allowed independent cultivators to participate in the deduction of secret techniques spread like wildfire throughout the entire Eastern Continent.

Many independent cultivators were very excited. Since those few cultivators could join the Heaven and Earth Alliance by pretending to establish it, could they also do so?
But to his surprise, the top powers in his vicinity did not approve of this matter at all.

This incident led a group of independent cultivators to leave and head to the territory where the Heavenly Spirit Sect was located.

Most of the rogue cultivators who left were those with high cultivation levels, strong abilities, ambition, and hope for the future!

In other words, they are now, or will be, customers of their high-level spiritual beings, but now, they are gone.

When the major powers finally came to their senses and did some calculations, they realized they had been taken advantage of. They could have easily avoided losing anything by involving these rogue cultivators, and they would have gained more manpower and spiritual resources. However, their pride prevented them from participating.

Once the rogue cultivators had fled and fewer people were buying their high-level spiritual items, they realized they had suffered a great loss and were filled with regret.

The Li family of Wanshan Mountain made a completely different choice!

When news of Tianling Sect taking in rogue cultivators spread, Li Xiuyuan took the initiative to gather those rogue cultivators with higher cultivation levels.

"I wonder why Clan Chief Li has summoned us?" The dozen or so rogue cultivators exchanged glances and elected Wang Hongyu, who had the highest cultivation level, to represent them.

"You must have heard about the Heavenly Spirit Sect. We would like to invite you to join us, but the Cave Abyss Sect is the one in charge, and I cannot guarantee that you will be able to join us."

Upon hearing this, the other cultivators couldn't help but show a hint of anticipation on their faces.

Li Xiuyuan saw all of this and then said, "If you did not participate, the Li family can also tell you fellow Daoists the secret technique directly."

If the previous words only surprised the rogue cultivators, then this sentence shocked them greatly. The Li family was actually so willing to spend so much.
They had also heard of this secret technique, and Li Zhirui was the first to obtain it, so they did not doubt that Li Xiuyuan's promise would ultimately not be fulfilled.

"In that case, I'll have to trouble Brother Li for help."

"Of course, it's a win-win situation, there's no question of helping each other."

After the matter was settled, Li Xiuyuan led these rogue cultivators, along with his letter, and sent them to the Dongyuan Sect.

But to everyone's surprise, the Dongyuan Sect was still unwilling to accept those independent cultivators.

Seeing this, Li Xiuyuan had no choice but to hand over the method to them and let them study it on their own. However, he still couldn't help but remind them: "Fellow Daoists, do not spread the method casually. Moreover, when using the method, you should pay attention to the surrounding environment and only relax your vigilance after you have confirmed that it is safe."

His actions successfully won over the hearts of the group of rogue cultivators, and the Li family gained several more helpers from outside the family.

Perhaps these rogue cultivators are not particularly strong, but they still have their own advantages. For example, they are widely distributed, making it easier and faster for them to gather intelligence than ordinary cultivators.

Moreover, these individuals are considered leading figures among the independent cultivators in the surrounding states. They have all come to the Li family, and many other independent cultivators are naturally included because of them.

……

Time flies, and more than a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

What was supposed to be just an ordinary day turned into a day filled with thick, dark clouds of tribulation over Mount Wanxian!
Even before the tribulation lightning had fully formed, it already gave off a heavy sense of oppression, making people feel uneasy.

As the lightning tribulation continued to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and strengthen itself, and as the tribulation clouds grew larger, Li Zhixuan appeared at the center of the lightning tribulation!

knock knock --

Li Zhirui, who was cultivating, was called out and forced to stop his cultivation.

He was about to ask what had happened, but as soon as he stepped outside, he felt the oppressive and heavy atmosphere in the air, and immediately understood.

Li Zhixuan, who has been recuperating and cultivating in her family for many years, is about to face her Heavenly Immortal Tribulation!
With a flash, he appeared near the lightning tribulation.

“Rui Zu!”

Everyone paid their respects, and many people muttered to themselves, not expecting to have alarmed this ancestor.

"Ninth Brother!"

Before long, Daqing, Xiaoqing, Xiaocang and others also arrived.

"The power of this lightning tribulation looks extraordinary. What did Zhixuan do to attract such a terrifying lightning tribulation?" Xiao Cang said with a frown.

No one can give him an answer to this question.

Rumbling--

A bolt of lightning ripped through the sky, accompanied by a deafening roar, and struck directly at Li Zhixuan.

She raised the broken sword in her hand, and her magical power surged out, unleashing a dazzling beam of light that actually cleaved the tribulation lightning in two!

wow——

The clansmen who were watching the tribulation from afar couldn't help but gasp in astonishment at this sight.

"How did they do that? Why are they so powerful?"

Even Li Zhirui's eyes flashed with amazement; this sword light was already threatening his safety.

Even though the tribulation lightning was cut in two, its residual inertia still caused it to fall towards Li Zhixuan, but this posed no threat to her anymore. She easily wiped it away with a few sword strikes.

The first lightning bolt posed no threat to her, but soon, the second lightning bolt followed, giving her no chance to catch her breath.

Li Zhixuan dealt with the tribulation lightning relatively easily, but at the cost of consuming half of her internal mana!
In order to better prepare for the future, she has begun to consume refined pills.

"You took the pill so quickly?" Xiaoqing asked in surprise.

"Her previous attacks, though extremely powerful and devastating, also consumed a great deal of energy. Zhixuan was making plans for what was to come."

Li Zhirui thought about the pills he had refined over the years, many of which he had sent to Li Zhixuan, so he figured there should be enough pills for her.

He also took this into account, so he refined only mild and easy-to-refine pills that would not damage his meridians unless he took an excessive amount.

Of course, this kind of pill is not without its drawbacks. It is difficult to refine and restores little mana. These two main reasons led alchemists to abandon this pill.

But after Li Zhirui found it, it was very suitable for Li Zhixuan!
Li Zhixuan, who had easily severed two bolts of tribulation lightning, did not feel proud or excited at this moment, and maintained a calm and composed state of mind.

Because she knew that this was just the beginning, and the tribulation lightning would become even more powerful in the future, she had to go all out.

boom!
Only this deafening roar remained in the world. Many clansmen who were observing the tribulation were stunned, their blood surging within them. Some junior cultivators were even more dumbfounded, frozen in place.

Li Zhixuan, who was undergoing her tribulation, naturally endured even greater pressure, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth! (End of Chapter)
