Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

Seeing that Li Debo had figured out the inside story, Li Zhirui said nothing more and instead said, "Let's stop after the family collects two more sets of materials."

If all goes well, he should be able to refine four or five Creation Heaven Pills, at which point he will select two forces to support.

The remaining Creation Heavenly Pills can be used to trade with the Xiaxian Sect and the He family of Yumen to obtain precious spiritual seeds.

After explaining everything, Li Zhirui set off, but instead of returning to his cave, he went to the storeroom. He planned to exchange a large number of spirit stones to accelerate the growth of some precious spiritual objects in the space, allowing them to mature faster.

The purpose of doing this is very simple: to leave behind a spiritual seed for the family.

He intended to take this opportunity to leave behind a seed of all the spiritual objects in the space that his family did not possess.

“Rui Zu, the number of spirit stones you exchanged is too large. The family cannot come up with so many spirit stones all at once,” the steward in charge of guarding the storeroom said with a troubled expression.

Li Zhirui had anticipated this, so he did not use all his contribution points, but only planned to exchange half of them.

But he didn't know that even half of it would be an astronomical sum!
Ultimately, it's because Li Zhirui hasn't paid attention to his contribution value over the years and has no idea how long that number is.

It was only this time that he learned of this matter.

Left with no other option, he had to ask, "What's the maximum number of spirit stones the warehouse can exchange right now?"

"Fifteen million, any more than that might affect the operation of the family," the steward said after considering the matter in his mind.

As a Celestial Immortal power, the Li family certainly couldn't have only such a small amount of spirit stones. However, they all existed in the form of spirit stone veins, buried in the Ten Thousand Immortal Mountains, increasing spiritual energy and nurturing spiritual vitality.

"Then let's exchange it for fifteen million spirit stones."

This quantity may seem like a lot, but if it's actually used to accelerate the growth of spirit creatures, it won't produce many at all.

After all, the spiritual creatures that Li Zhirui wanted to cultivate were at least at the Earth Immortal level, not the low-level spiritual creatures that didn't cost many spirit stones many years ago.

It took quite a bit of effort for the steward to finally put the spirit stones he needed into his storage magic treasure.

After deducting the corresponding contribution points, Li Zhirui flashed back to his cave and began to organize his experience and insights in cultivation and alchemy.

Given his experience and level of attainment, if recorded in detail, there would be over a hundred jade slips.

These jade slips, along with the spiritual seeds he intended to leave to his family, were all things Li Zhirui used to settle his karmic ties with his family.

Regardless of Li Zhirui's actions, Li Debo had already sent people to collect intelligence on the forces caught between the Li family and the Dongyuan Sect, as instructed by him.

Although it's often said that this place is a narrow, cramped area, giving the impression of being small, that's not actually the case.

This region is not small; it is nearly ten thousand miles wide from north to south and tens of thousands of miles long from east to west, so there are quite a few forces living in this area.

However, the Li family wanted to find a force with cultivators at the late stage of Earth Immortal, preferably at the peak of Earth Immortal. After this screening, only a few forces remained.

After a period of observation and intelligence gathering, the Li family finally decided on Qiming Sect and White Tiger Mountain.

The reason for choosing these two forces is twofold: firstly, they have little interaction with the Dongyuan Sect and are not close to the Li family; secondly, they both have cultivators at the late stage of Earth Immortal, which can save a lot of time.

When the Li family's Earth Immortal visited them in disguise, both factions reacted with the same surprise and confusion.

It should be noted that they had no prior connection with the Li family and were not worthy of the Li family secretly sending people to them; this was not the kind of treatment they deserved.

"I wonder what brings you here in disguise, fellow traveler?" the Qiming Sect leader asked tentatively, with a hint of deeper meaning.

Li Yunran said with a faint smile, "My family wishes to bestow a great opportunity upon Qiming Sect, but I wonder if your sect has the courage to accept it?"

He now possesses the cultivation level of a mid-stage Earth Immortal, making him one of the most powerful Earth Immortals in the Li family.

The sect leader narrowed his eyes slightly but remained calm, saying humbly, "The Qiming Sect is weak and powerless, and I'm afraid we will disappoint you, sir."

"Really?"

Li Yunran was unfazed by his refusal, his smile still on his face, though it looked incredibly alluring. He murmured, "The family is planning to cultivate one or two new Celestial Immortal forces. Since the sect leader is unwilling, then I will not disturb you any longer. Farewell!"

The sect leader was deeply moved by these words, his mind racing with countless thoughts. But at the same time, he instinctively shouted, "Fellow Daoist, wait!"

"Ok?"

Li Yunran looked at him, puzzled, and asked curiously, "I wonder what the sect leader wants to say to me?"

Although the sect leader knew that the other party was just putting on an act and trying to manipulate Qiming Sect, the matter was of great importance. It concerned whether his own sect could produce a Celestial Immortal and whether Qiming Sect could advance further, so he had no choice but to cooperate.

"What you just said, fellow Daoist, that your family plans to cultivate one or two Celestial Immortal forces, is that true or not?"

"Of course it's true, the family has already placed the Creation Heavenly Pill on me."

The Celestial Elixir of Creation!

The Qiming Sect leader's heart pounded wildly, and a greedy glint appeared in his eyes. He even entertained some audacious thoughts, but he quickly dismissed them when he thought of Li Yunran's identity.

When committing murder and robbery, one must consider the identity of the victim and whether the information will be leaked. If these two points are not handled well, it may put oneself in danger.

Moreover, they might not be able to successfully subdue this Li family earth immortal in front of them.

"I wonder if the Qiming Sect has anything that catches your eye, fellow Daoist?"

Li Yunran did not answer the question, but instead asked, "What benefits will you bring to your family after you break through to the Celestial Immortal realm?"

"We are willing to follow the Li family and become their vassals."

Seeing that Li Yunran still had a faint smile on his face, the sect leader knew that he was not satisfied with the answer, so he quickly racked his brains and began to analyze what the Li family's purpose was in doing this.

Li Yunran did not interrupt his thoughts, but stood aside patiently waiting for him to speak.

After an unknown amount of time, the sect leader finally spoke slowly, saying, "Your family hopes that we can help alleviate the pressure on the Dongyuan Sect!"

He spoke these words with an unusually calm expression, and there was no anger in his heart.

The Li family is willing to pay such a high price, so what they are seeking must be considerable!
He understood very well that there is always a loss in order to gain something.

"Clap clap-"

Li Yunran clapped his hands with a broad smile and said, "The sect leader is right. Then, I wonder if the Qiming Sect is willing to take on this important task?"

"I am willing to serve the Li family!"

"it is good!"

Li Yunran praised the suggestion, then took out a small jade bottle from his storage magic treasure and asked, "Does the Qiming Sect have any cultivators at the peak of the Earth Immortal realm, or even the late stage of the Earth Immortal realm?"

"Yes, there is a Supreme Elder in the sect who broke through to the peak of Earth Immortal many years ago, but he has never been confident in transcending the tribulation." The sect leader said, barely able to hide his excitement.

"I wonder what spiritual root he specializes in?" "Wood spiritual root."

Upon hearing this, Li Yunran frowned slightly and said, "The Creation Heavenly Pill in my hand is of the fire element, which is not suitable for him to take. I will exchange it for a Heavenly Pill when I return to the family."

This statement reveals that the Li family has no shortage of Creation Elixir, and can change them at will.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. If the Li family didn't have enough Creation Heavenly Pills, how could they possibly give them away for free? Despite the various requirements, they certainly didn't need to pay a single spirit stone.

"Alright, fellow Daoist, please take care on your journey." The sect leader now only hopes that Li Yunran can return soon and get the pills into his hands as soon as possible.

He couldn't be completely at ease until he had the Creation Elixir in his own hands.

The one who went to White Tiger Mountain was another member of the family, Li Xianxun, who was an Earth Immortal. His cultivation was slightly higher than Li Yunran's, but he had not been able to break through to the late stage of Earth Immortal and was still stuck in the middle stage of Earth Immortal.

However, while White Tiger Mountain did not react as quickly as the Cave Abyss Sect, they were still very keenly interested in this matter.

Furthermore, Baihu Mountain also passed the test and successfully gained the loyalty and training of the Li family.

Speaking of Li Xianxun and Li Yunran, it's unclear when they will take their relationship to the next level.

These two have been cultivating for many years. Although they are currently stuck in the mid-stage of Earth Immortal, their cultivation speed is actually normal.

Cultivators like Li Zhirui and Li Zhixuan, whose cultivation has risen steadily over thousands of years and even reached a transcendent level, are extremely rare.

In reality, both Li Xianxun and Li Yunran are geniuses in terms of aptitude, comprehension, Dao heart, and state of mind.

Even so, it was still extremely difficult for them to improve their cultivation.

While sending people to observe and select Earth Immortal forces, Li Debo did not forget to send people to trade with the He family of Yumen and the Xiaxian Sect.

On Mount Yumen, a certain immortal from the Li family came to visit.

"Fellow Daoist, you have traveled a long way to come. Is there something important you wish to tell us?" The He family patriarch said with a faint smile as he looked at the newcomer.

Li Taiyao took a deep breath, bowed to the He family patriarch, and then explained the purpose of her visit: "Fellow Daoist He, our family intends to make a deal with your family."

"Oh? I wonder what kind of spiritual item you're trading?"

"The Celestial Elixir of Creation!"

Upon hearing this, the previously lazy He family patriarch immediately sat up, his nonchalant expression vanishing instantly, replaced by a serious and earnest one.

"Someone, bring a cup of refreshing and enlightening tea!"

Instead of responding immediately, he gave another instruction: a cup of rather precious Earth Immortal-grade spiritual tea.

During this time, he was also calming down from the shock.

How many years has it been since the Li family obtained the pill formula? Not only did the Li family successfully refine the Creation Heavenly Pill, but they were also able to trade it!
"How does the Li family plan to conduct the transaction?"

A moment later, the head of the He family took the initiative to inquire again.

“Our collection of spiritual items is limited, and our family hasn’t refined many Creation Heavenly Pills, so for now we can only trade one with your family,” Li Taiyao said.

The head of the He family did not believe it.

However, since he needed someone's help now, he naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to expose the other party. He nodded in agreement and said, "Then, I wonder what you plan to trade for the Heavenly Pill?"

“A spirit seed, a celestial-level spirit seed.”

Such a major matter was not up to Li Taiyao to decide, so the family had already made a decision on it. All she could do was try to secure more benefits for the family during the process.

"Um……"

After a moment of contemplation, the He family patriarch said, "We are willing to offer five different Celestial Immortal-grade spiritual seeds in exchange for a Creation Heavenly Pill from the Li family."

"Too little. This is a spiritual item that can increase the breakthrough rate of the Celestial Immortal Realm by 20%! Moreover, the quality is quite good. It should be exchanged for eight different spiritual seeds."

Li Taiyao made an exorbitant demand, but in reality, the Li family didn't want that many spirit seeds. They just raised the 'price' first, and then reduced the number of unused spirit seeds during the negotiations.

"Fellow Daoist, please don't joke with me. No matter how precious the Creation Heavenly Pill is, it cannot be exchanged for eight different spiritual seeds." The He family patriarch did not give her any face because of the Heavenly Pill.

……

The two sides argued over one or two kinds of spirit seeds, but in the end, the He family patriarch prevailed and changed the terms of the transaction to six different Celestial Immortal-level spirit seeds.

On the surface, Li Taiyao appeared somewhat indignant, but inwardly she was very happy, because the family had given her five kinds of spirit seeds, and now she had helped the family obtain one more, so how could she not be happy?

After agreeing on the terms, the two quickly completed the transaction.

Li Taiyao bid farewell and left without hesitation. The mission was already completed, and she still possessed such a precious spiritual seed. How could she dare to linger in the outside world?

To avoid being hunted down and ambushed by the He family, she deliberately took a longer route, delaying her return to her family.

the other side.

Li Xinhuai, the fourth Earth Immortal sent by the Li family, also entered the gates of the Xiaxian Sect regarding this matter.

But whether he was overthinking it or it was just his imagination, he felt that the sacred mountain, which should have been surrounded by celestial energy and full of vitality, gave him a strange feeling.

However, he was only there to make a transaction and did not want to cause trouble, so he pretended not to know anything and followed the disciple in front of him into a magnificent golden hall.

But once inside, that strange feeling intensified, as if it were emanating from the main hall itself.

This strange situation made Li Xinhuai quite uneasy, fearing that he might encounter some serious trouble that could cost him his life.

"Fellow Daoist Li, what brings you here so suddenly?" the sect leader of Xiaxian Sect said with a gentle expression.

"Previously, our family obtained the Creation Heaven Pill formula from your sect. Over the years, our family patriarch has been studying it and finally succeeded in refining a batch not long ago. We would like to use this to make a deal with your sect, exchanging one Creation Heaven Pill for seven different Celestial Immortal-level spiritual seeds."

Li Xinhuai immediately revealed his purpose.

"Good, Senior Li Zhirui truly lives up to his reputation as the foremost alchemy master in the Yuanling Realm! He actually refined the Creation Heaven Pill in such a short time."

The sect leader first offered a compliment before responding, "Seven kinds of spirit seeds are quite valuable. If it were six kinds, I wonder if you would be willing to facilitate this transaction?"

"This……"

Li Xinhuai was naturally pleased, but he still pretended to be hesitant.

"Alright, it's only because it's your sect that we agree. If it were any other force, they definitely wouldn't agree."

After a while, he reluctantly gritted his teeth and agreed, as if he had suffered a great loss. (End of Chapter)
