Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

This seclusion period was not long, only a little over a hundred years, and Li Zhirui brought his mastery of the purification law to its limit after this improvement.

The more profound content was beyond the reach of a celestial being like him.

The first thing he did upon regaining consciousness was to check on Qing Si's condition.

Seeing that he was indeed focused on his secluded cultivation, Li Zhirui did not disturb him. He quietly withdrew his divine sense and embarked on his training again, seeking the path to break through to the Xuanxian realm.

However, this matter is far more troublesome and difficult than imagined!
For a long time afterward, Li Zhirui was unable to find an opportunity for a breakthrough, as he spent all that precious time fighting and battling ferocious beasts.

If he could, he certainly wouldn't want to waste time on this, but he had no choice; all he encountered were ferocious beasts that attacked without distinguishing right from wrong, as soon as they saw a person.

If these ferocious beasts possessed immense power, enough to make him feel threatened and force him to push his limits, break through his bottleneck in a desperate situation, and give him hope for a breakthrough, then that would be one thing.

Unfortunately, none of the chaotic creatures Li Zhirui encountered possessed strong combat power, nor were there any ferocious beasts that could threaten his life.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but he had grown tired of the ferocious beasts. However, he hadn't encountered a suitable opponent, and the bottleneck had been stuck there, which made him very uncomfortable.

"Xuanxian! Xuanxian!"

It was only a step away, but it felt like an insurmountable chasm, preventing him from crossing it. He could only stay on this side, longing for the scenery on the other side.

"Perhaps I chose the wrong path..."

Li Zhirui murmured, "We shouldn't try to use past experience to seize a moment of inspiration in the great battle and use it to break through our own realm."

Instead, one should use the most orthodox method to comprehend the Way of Heaven, master the laws, and then promote the advancement of one's realm.

"Phew!" Li Zhirui exhaled a breath of stale air.

Fortunately, he realized this not too late, and this lesson also reminded him that he is different now than before!
His current level of cultivation is far beyond what it used to be. Using any more opportunistic methods will not only be useless, but will also waste his time.

"I'll go into seclusion here!"

Since he awakened to the truth here, he might actually have been blessed with some good fortune.

Of course, the most important thing is that Li Zhirui did not encounter a single chaotic creature in the vicinity along the way, making it a rare peaceful place in the void.

He quickly set up the formation, then entered it, sat cross-legged on the platform, and focused intently on comprehending the purification laws.

Previously, when his true form was growing, because he had increased his affinity with the Purification Law, Li Zhirui had already pushed his understanding of the Purification Law to its limit and peak at his current level.

What he needs to do now is to break through the limits!

To further master more and more comprehensive purification laws, laying a solid foundation for his breakthrough to the Xuanxian realm!

As Li Zhirui fully immersed himself in the practice, a faint lotus fragrance emanated from his body, and wisps of purifying spiritual light appeared, creating a more suitable environment for cultivation.

Unbeknownst to him, he transformed back into his Chaotic God-Demon body, attracting more purifying power to this place with each breath.

In an instant, the formation became a sacred place for cultivating and purifying the laws.

From the outside, this small space contains many insights and experiences of a cultivator at the peak of the Celestial Immortal realm. However, anything unrelated to purification is erased by the power of the laws, thus preserving its purity.

If you look closely, you will find that Li Zhirui's true form as a god or demon is slowly growing in this environment.

All of these can help him break through the limits of the purification law!

This help is small and insignificant, but perhaps it is this small amount of strength that, at some point, can help him take a step forward and break through the constraints!

……

Time flies when you're cultivating yourself; a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Zhirui has been sitting quietly in the chaos for a thousand years.

For ordinary people, this is an unimaginable long period of time, but for him, it is just the time spent in a period of seclusion, which is not worth mentioning at all.

Even though he possessed world-destroying power, he couldn't break through the bottleneck in his cultivation level, which had no real physical limitations!
It was like an impregnable wall blocking his way, and Li Zhirui was just an overconfident mortal, foolishly trying to break through it.

Yet it has never been able to shake it in the slightest.

However, Li Zhirui was not discouraged by this, nor did he have any intention of giving up. On the contrary, he felt that this was normal!
If it were so easy to break through to the Xuanxian realm, there wouldn't be such a small number of Xuanxian.

What he needs to do now is to persevere and continuously wear down the impenetrable wall in front of him.

Water dripping on stone can wear it down, and grains of sand can build a tower!
Li Zhirui also believes that as long as he perseveres, he will definitely succeed one day.

Therefore, he did not rush to get up and leave, but calmed his mind and continued to meditate in seclusion to comprehend the purification law!
Pure and clean!

This is the most superficial outward manifestation of the purification law.

Dispel, restore!
This is a manifestation of the purification law being applied slightly closer to the interior.

Purify!
This is the true core of the law!

What Li Zhirui needs to do now is to go straight to the core, grasp the core, and comprehend the principles.

However, it's easier said than done. Moreover, this is exactly what he did. Although his current gains are not much, at least he didn't leave empty-handed; there has been some progress.

If this continues, perhaps in a few thousand or even tens of thousands of years, with his long-term persistence, he might be able to make further progress.

Li Zhirui was naturally unwilling to wait that long and did not want to use this method. Moreover, he had already thought of a better way. If successful, he would be able to take this step and break through to the Xuanxian realm!

And this method is the union of the divine with the heavens and the earth!

Simply put, it means that one's soul enters the sea of ​​laws, comes into close contact with the laws, 'sees' them more comprehensively and completely, comprehends them more easily, and improves one's control over the laws.

But why is it that almost no one is willing to put such a good method into practice?

The reason is simple: it's too dangerous, too dangerous!
The Sea of ​​Laws is an excellent place where the laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos converge. Its magnificent and beautiful scenery is also very charming, making it a sacred place that all beings seeking the Dao yearn for.

But this holy place is not safe; in fact, it can be said to be extremely dangerous.

Moreover, this danger is not only for celestial immortals, but also for powerful beings like xuan immortals and golden immortals, who dare not enter easily, because they might be attracted by the infinitely mysterious laws and become addicted to them!

If one cannot wake up in time, one will be assimilated by the laws in no time and become a part of the laws, never able to leave the Sea of ​​Laws! Perhaps only those at the higher levels of Taiyi or even Daluo can enter the Sea of ​​Laws with peace of mind and without too many worries.

Not to mention that Li Zhirui is now in the void of chaos, where the level of the Sea of ​​Laws is much higher and more dangerous than when he was in the Yuanling Realm.

Therefore, his decision was extremely risky and impulsive; he could easily perish on the spot!
But given Li Zhirui's stubborn nature, he generally won't change his mind once he's made a decision. Besides, the Sea of ​​Laws isn't a place you can just go to whenever you want!
Even if he wanted to enter the Sea of ​​Laws, he would have to find the entrance first.

The simplest, yet also the most difficult, method is to retreat into seclusion and comprehend the principles.

It's simple because it's something anyone can do; the barrier to entry is very low. The difficulty lies in the fact that the vast majority of living beings cannot enter and can only linger at the entrance.

Li Zhirui used this method, and he was quite confident and certain about it.

Having made up his mind, he began to act, his mind calm and his breathing even, releasing his full divine sense to cover an area of ​​over a thousand miles.

Carefully and patiently sensing the rhythm of the surrounding chaos, I gradually adjusted my breathing, and before long, I was completely in sync with the rhythm of the chaos.

If someone were observing Li Zhirui from the outside at this moment, they would be surprised to find that although he appears to be sitting cross-legged in the void, he gives people an unreal feeling, as if he is completely integrated with the chaos and there is no distinction between them!

During this process, he began to receive the purification laws and began to comprehend them, gradually merging with heaven and earth, and his vision continued to rise.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he opened his eyes, he found that he had successfully arrived at the Sea of ​​Laws!

"This method really works."

It seems simple, but the step of uniting the divine with heaven and earth has blocked a large number of living beings.

Li Zhirui didn't dwell on the emotions; he instantly withdrew his consciousness and searched for the existence of the purification law within the mysterious space permeated with laws.

It should be understood that the longer he stays, the greater the pressure he will face, and with his current cultivation level and realm, he cannot hold on for long, so he must hurry.

Find the purification law, then devote all your efforts to comprehending it to help yourself break through to the Xuanxian realm!
Fortunately, Li Zhirui had a special connection with the Purification Law, and following this connection, he quickly found the location of the Purification Law.

They didn't dare to waste a single moment and focused all their attention on comprehending it.

In the past, he could only observe the purification laws in a partial way, but this time, he saw them more completely and comprehensively.

In a short time, Li Zhirui gained many new insights into the purification law, and his realm seemed to be rising rapidly.

He seemed to see himself breaking through to the Xuanxian realm and launching an attack on the Jinxian realm. Moreover, the Jinxian realm was within reach, causing Li Zhirui to unconsciously become obsessed with it and unable to extricate himself.

Unbeknownst to him, the Daoist essence had already permeated his soul and was assimilating him!
At this rate, before long, Li Zhirui will completely perish, leaving only an empty physical body.

"Um?!"

At this most dangerous moment for him, he suddenly let out a muffled groan, instantly regained his senses, and then fell out of the Sea of ​​Laws, returning to his physical body in the void.

Li Zhirui opened his eyes, his face pale and panting heavily. He was so close! So close! If he had woken up half an hour later, he would have already become part of the purification law.

He was able to escape death thanks to the reminder from his own Dao body, which allowed him to escape a calamity at an extremely dangerous moment.

Although it was extremely dangerous and he almost lost his life, fortunately, Li Zhirui survived and gained a lot.

First and foremost, and most importantly, he achieved the improvement in his cultivation level. Whether this will allow him to break through his bottleneck remains to be seen in his upcoming seclusion and comprehension.

Secondly, his soul was slightly assimilated by the purification law. It wasn't much, but it remained entangled in his soul. If it wasn't cleaned up, it would become an obstacle on Li Zhirui's path to breakthrough.

This matter actually has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that if he can refine this part of the law, it will greatly help improve his own realm; the disadvantage is that it will take a lot of time to solve, which will delay Li Zhirui's cultivation speed.

However, there's no other way; this is a problem that must be solved. Otherwise, rashly attempting to break through to the Profound Immortal Realm will only bring trouble upon oneself.

……

Time flies, and another thousand years have passed.

After this period of cultivation, Li Zhirui finally resolved the part of his soul that had been assimilated by the purification law, restoring it to its original state.

During this process, his soul was also strengthened and became more resilient.

Just as Li Zhirui was preparing to make a final push and enter seclusion to challenge the Xuanxian Realm, the Azure Rhinoceros in the space suddenly sent a message.

"Ninth Brother, I've already reached the peak of the Human Immortal Realm!" he exclaimed eagerly as soon as he emerged from the space, his voice filled with excitement and anticipation.

His cultivation speed wasn't particularly fast, but it was already quite remarkable that he could get a creature with an uncontrollable mind to obediently cultivate in seclusion for over a thousand years.

"Great! This is much better than I expected."

"I have to thank Ninth Brother for this. If it weren't for your words back then, I wouldn't have suddenly realized my mistake and started to seize the time to cultivate." As he spoke, a look of gratitude appeared on Qing Si's face.

These words truly came from his heart and were his honest thoughts.

"You should be most grateful to yourself. If you hadn't worked hard and persevered, how could you have achieved what you have today?"

Li Zhirui shook his head and said, "Besides, the Human Immortal and Earth Immortal realms are only just beginning. Don't slack off, keep cultivating diligently!"

"Yes! This time, I wanted to try to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm, which is why I decided to leave this space."

Although the space is mysterious, it lacks laws and there are no heavenly tribulations to test it, so it cannot be used as a place for breakthroughs.

Li Zhirui was not surprised by this; judging from his current cultivation level, he knew this was an inevitable decision.

"Perfect timing, I'm also planning to break through to the Profound Immortal Realm."

He smiled and said, "Perfect, let's have a competition and see who can break through faster."

"Okay!" Qing Si agreed without hesitation.

It's easier said than done, and it's not so simple when you actually put it into practice.

Because of the significant difference in their cultivation levels, when Li Zhirui comprehends the Purification Law, it puts immense pressure on Qing Si, making it difficult for him to comprehend the Wind and Thunder Law.

The best solution is for the two to separate, allowing Qing Si to find another location, and then setting up an array to protect and conceal her, preventing any accidents from occurring during her cultivation. (End of Chapter)
