Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

After surviving the tribulation of birth, Li Zhirui quickly left the place, as he was in poor condition, with little magic power left in his body and injuries on his body.

If a chaotic being were to suddenly pass by this place, it could very well be another crisis for him!
Therefore, what he needs to do now is to seize the time to restore his magic power and heal his injuries before he can travel and explore in the void.

Before long, Li Zhirui found a relatively quiet area, set up a concealment and guard formation nearby, and then sat cross-legged in the void, activating his secret technique.

The reason he didn't enter the completely safe personal space to heal was because his current capacity to absorb spiritual energy was too exaggerated!

Even though the spiritual energy in the space was very abundant, it was no longer enough for Li Zhirui.

The main reason is that his origins have undergone a qualitative leap, becoming a special kind of chaotic being that requires higher-grade chaotic spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy in the space is still the ordinary spiritual energy of the five elements.

It's not that it can't absorb anything, it just absorbs a massive amount of spiritual energy! It probably takes up as much as 80% of the spiritual energy in the space!
However, if Li Zhirui does this, the countless spiritual creatures planted in the space may wither or even die due to the lack of spiritual energy.

After all, among the spiritual creatures he cultivated were many that were of extremely high quality, precious and delicate.

……

There was no rotation of the sun and moon in the void, and time seemed to become blurred as a result. Many chaotic beings even lost their concept of time and did not care about its passage.

Therefore, when Li Zhirui awoke from his seclusion and calculated with his fingers, he was astonished to find that more than a thousand years had passed, and exclaimed:
"Does time really pass so quickly?"

Besides recovering from his injuries, he also gained a deeper understanding of himself during this seclusion, enabling him to unleash even greater power.

If Li Zhirui were to fight the bear demon now, he would never have ended up in such a sorry state.

"Next, while traveling through the void, I will accelerate the growth of the Chaos God-Demon Dao Body, strive to break through to the Profound Immortal realm as soon as possible, and elevate the Dao Body to maturity."

After deciding on the next course of action, Li Zhirui put away the formation and began to formally explore the void.

The vast chaos, with grayness above and below and in all directions, but now, he no longer felt as oppressed as before. On the contrary, he felt at ease and even somewhat enjoyed the situation.

The only two things that he found somewhat unfriendly were: firstly, his perception of the passage of time had become very blurry, and he had truly been unaware of the passage of hundreds or thousands of years.

Secondly, the void was so vast that it felt like I had traveled a great distance, yet I hadn't encountered any living beings along the way, as if I were the only person in this world.

If a being's Dao heart is not strong enough and their mental state is not stable enough, they may fall into a state of demonic possession if they stay in the void for too long.

Of course, Li Zhirui did not have any trouble or problem in this regard.

Having transformed from an ordinary human into a chaotic being, they haven't yet adapted to this new identity in a short time.

These kinds of things will resolve themselves naturally over time; there's no need to deal with them specifically.

However, it still causes him a little trouble now.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Zhirui finally saw and encountered a living being!
It wasn't so happy about his arrival, nor was it very friendly. As soon as it saw him, it bared its teeth and made a fierce appearance, ready to pounce at any moment.

"I was originally planning to have a proper talk with you, but since you're unwilling, then let's forget about it."

Li Zhirui shook his head with a regretful expression. Suddenly, a long whip appeared in his hand. With a light flick, he traversed a long distance and lashed it hard across the body.

ahhh-

The seemingly casual strike inflicted severe damage on the ferocious beast, causing it to scream in agony.

At this moment, it realized that it had provoked an existence that it could not afford to offend. Instead of seeking revenge, it immediately fled into the distance.

"what?"

Such unusual behavior immediately aroused Li Zhirui's curiosity. His originally prepared killing move suddenly changed, transforming into a rope of law, which shot through the air.

The ferocious beast breathed a sigh of relief when it realized there was no movement behind it, but it did not slow down its escape. It continued to run with its head down, hoping to get as far away as possible.

But its wish was destined to be in vain!

A rope suddenly appeared in front of it and then bound it tightly, preventing it from even struggling.

Wuwuwu——

It could only whimper continuously, which sounded very pitiful.

Soon, Li Zhirui caught up, and looking at the chaotic beast that kept whimpering and crying, his curiosity grew even stronger.

"interesting!"

He wasn't in a hurry to start researching, but just stood aside and said quietly, "It is rumored that some special chaotic beings can develop intelligence. I didn't believe it before, but now it seems that I was ignorant and shallow."

It should be understood that chaotic beings have a higher origin and aptitude, so the Great Dao will limit their growth, and the best way is to suppress their development of intelligence.

Because they lack intelligence, they are merely beasts with power but no knowledge of how to use it properly. No matter how strong they are, they pose little threat.

However, the Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and one is missing!

Therefore, occasionally, some chaotic beings will develop intelligence, but the number is extremely small, perhaps only one in tens of millions, and the probability is still very low.

Therefore, when Li Zhirui discovered that the chaotic creature in front of him actually possessed intelligence, which was extremely rare, he subconsciously did not want to let it go.

"Little one, judging from your size, you must be a newborn. In this perilous void, it will be difficult for you to survive. Why don't you come with me from now on? I'll make sure you're well-fed and watered every day, and I'll also teach you cultivation to help you grow stronger. What do you say?"

His attitude was exceptionally friendly, as if he wanted to lure her away, and he was generous in promising her many benefits.

As he spoke, a spiritually vibrant fruit suddenly appeared in his hand, which he waved back and forth in front of the young beast, using the spiritual object to lure it and reduce its resistance.

Upon seeing the spirit fruit, the young beast stopped whimpering and crying, staring intently at the fruit, its mouth practically watering.

"If you agree to sign a contract with me, not just this one spirit fruit, but all of these are yours!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, and piles and piles of spiritual objects, as high as small mountains, suddenly appeared, emitting a rich spiritual energy and fragrance. They looked very tempting, making people unable to help but swallow their saliva.

When had this chaotic creature ever experienced such temptation? Completely powerless to resist, it succumbed to it, its eyes fixed on the spiritual creatures with fascination.

Li Zhirui loosened the restraints slightly, letting it pounce forward. Watching it devour the spiritual creature with gusto, completely disregarding any dangers around it, and losing its composure, he decisively made a contract with it.

The contract is relatively equal, but it is dominated by him and can be used to restrain this chaotic being to prevent it from turning against him in the future.

He made a contract with this young beast for two reasons: first, its rarity—if he missed this opportunity, he might never encounter one again; second, as a natural chaotic being, studying it would be beneficial to his chaotic divine and demonic body.

The last reason is that the void is too lonely, and having living beings to accompany you makes it less boring.

"Seeing that you resemble a cow in appearance, but only have one horn, I will name you Qingsi." Li Zhirui observed it carefully for a while and finally gave it a name.

Roar!
Amidst her busy schedule, Qing Si responded with a sound of satisfaction, seemingly quite pleased with the name. "I'm leaving."

Li Zhirui waited until Qing Si had consumed a large amount of spiritual items, until he could eat no more, then patted Qing Si's body and took him to train in the void.

During this process, he was surprised to discover that Qing Si actually possessed the divine ability of "Law of Heaven and Earth," and it was an innate divine ability!
Thus, the Azure Rhinoceros naturally became Li Zhirui's mount, carrying him as he wandered aimlessly through the void.

"Are we just going to wander around aimlessly like this? Without a destination?"

At first, Qing Si didn't think there was anything wrong. Not only did she have plenty of delicious food, but she also didn't have to worry about her safety like before. She was completely enjoying herself.

But as time went on, he couldn't hold back any longer.

Until one day, I couldn't stand it anymore and finally asked.

"No, I mainly wanted to see if I could find an opportunity," Li Zhirui said casually, seemingly unconcerned.

"When will we get there?!"

"Don't be anxious, take your time."

He even had the extra energy to comfort Qing Si, saying, "This is also a form of cultivation for you."

"up to you."

Since Li Zhirui wasn't in a hurry, he relaxed and became much lazier.

……

Time flies by unnoticed; it seems like more than two hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Li Zhirui and Qing Si did not always live a very ordinary and boring life. Sometimes they would encounter brutal beasts and attack them without saying a word.

Qing Si's strength was still relatively weak, and he couldn't help in the battle, so he still had to fight alone.

Perhaps they were lucky; the ferocious beasts they encountered were not so powerful that Li Zhirui was unable to deal with them and even had to retreat.

At the same time, it also greatly changed Qing Si's impression of him!

Before this, he thought that Li Zhirui was not very strong, but just cunning.

But after witnessing him kill several powerful and ferocious beasts whose mere aura instilled fear in him, Qing Si realized he had underestimated him.

Even after finding out, he didn't change his attitude towards Li Zhirui; it remained the same as before.

"Your strength has improved way too fast!"

After killing yet another blind ferocious beast, Qing Si said, "It took you half a quarter of an hour less than last time."

The unit of time measurement was naturally given to him by Li Zhirui, and it used the time of the Yuanling Realm.

Qing Si's eyes were filled with undisguised envy. Over the years, he had refined countless spiritual objects, yet his strength had not improved as much as Li Zhirui's.

Although there was a huge gap in their cultivation levels, he still found it hard to accept.

"You are still in your childhood, so your growth rate is naturally slower than mine. As you grow older, your strength will improve more significantly."

While answering, Li Zhirui collected any usable parts of the ferocious beast.

"Okay," Qing Si replied sullenly.

He only glanced at it and didn't offer any words of comfort. If he couldn't even overcome such a small setback, then his path of cultivation would come to an end.

Fortunately, Qing Si was only a little depressed and didn't have any other problems.

……

"what?"

On this day, Li Zhirui, who was sitting cross-legged on the Azure Rhinoceros and comprehending the laws, suddenly opened his eyes.

"What's wrong? Did you discover something new and interesting?" Qing Si asked impatiently, unable to suppress her desire to watch the excitement.

"Follow the direction I indicate." Li Zhirui did not answer him, but instead issued a new order.

Seeing that he wouldn't explain, Qing Si could only run quickly while asking, "What happened? Tell me first, so I can make some preparations!"

You'll see when you get there.

The more this was the case, the more curious Qing Si became, and immediately ran as fast as Li Zhirui could in the direction he had indicated.

From behind, his body looked as if it were enveloped in lightning, and his speed was even greater!

It can be said that in order to unlock the secret technique as soon as possible, Qing Si was running at top speed, all in order to reach the destination as quickly as possible.

"Stop! This is it!"

About half an hour later, Li Zhirui called a halt in time.

"Is there anything special about this place?" Qing Si frowned, looking around, but no matter how he looked, it was no different from other places in the void!
But seeing his piercing gaze, I couldn't help but doubt myself. Was it because my cultivation level was too low that I couldn't see him?

Rumbling--

But just a few breaths later, a loud rumbling sound suddenly rang out nearby.

Then, a palace appeared out of thin air!
It's as if it was teleported directly through space.

"This is……"

When Qing Si saw the magnificent and grand palace before him, he was stunned and stood there for a long time, unable to recover.

"The Chaos Merchant Guild?!"

Qing Si clicked her tongue inwardly in amazement. This chamber of commerce was truly ambitious, actually naming itself after chaos.

However, anyone who has had contact with the Chaos Merchant Guild does not think that the guild is arrogant; on the contrary, they all feel that they are fully worthy of the name!
"Ninth Brother, how did you know the Chamber of Commerce would stop here? Could it be that you have some kind of precognitive ability?" Qing Si asked in shock.

"Hahahaha, with the Chaos Chamber of Commerce's methods and strength, let alone me, even a Xuanxian senior who is proficient in divination of heavenly secrets could not deduce the Chamber of Commerce's location."

Li Zhirui smiled and said, "The reason I know this is, of course, because I have some special connection with the Chamber of Commerce." (End of Chapter)
