Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

However, it is strange that many of these are spiritual objects from hundreds of years ago. Logically speaking, even if a restriction is placed to seal spiritual objects, their spiritual essence should be lost, or they should even completely lose their spiritual light and become useless.

However, these spiritual objects did not exhibit this condition; on the contrary, they were perfectly preserved, as if they had been sealed away just a few days prior.

Because of this, Li Zhirui and Fu Chenguang no longer looked at the spring with the same casualness as before, because they knew that this was most likely the effect of the spiritual water it produced.

But whether it was the spirit's own concealment or the cover-up by other spirits, if they hadn't come into close contact with the spring, they would have thought it was just ordinary spring water and never imagined it would be so special.

Li Zhirui suddenly had an idea. He suspected that there might be some secret in this valley. He immediately released his divine sense and explored in all directions, trying to find out the reason. He did not even leave the depths of the earth unexplored.

Despite his best efforts and a thorough search, he found nothing unusual, nor did he discover any trace of the third spiritual object.

"Fellow Daoist, have you discovered anything?"

He shook his head, about to speak, but suddenly remembered something. His divine sense stopped probing the ground and instead looked down at the entire valley from high above.

Upon closer inspection, he did indeed discover a clue, but he wasn't entirely certain. He hesitated and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are quite knowledgeable about formations. Why don't you take a look at this valley and see if it's a natural formation?"

Although Fu Chenguang did not explicitly state that he was skilled in formations, it was not difficult to see from the traces of his actions that he had a considerable understanding of the art of formations.

"Yeah?!"

A sense of curiosity arose in his heart, and his divine sense rose into the sky, overlooking the valley. Instantly, the mountain range's shape and feng shui appeared in his mind.

"Fellow Daoist has keen eyesight! This is indeed a formation! Moreover, it is a very rare innate grand formation! As for its effects, we will only know after we comprehend and analyze it."

Fu Chenguang opened his eyes, his gaze filled with joy, far more so than when he had obtained the spiritual plant. He spoke with a mixture of urgency and embarrassment, "Fellow Daoist, could you stay here a little longer? So that I may study this innate formation?"

This matter would naturally bring him many benefits, but for Li Zhirui, it would be a waste of time, since he does not cultivate the art of formations.

"Fellow Daoist, please feel free to do as you please. I'll also take this time to properly organize the methods and scriptures I've acquired before."

Although he had already read it once, it was just a cursory glance, not a careful reading, and he hadn't had time to properly understand and digest it.

"To compensate you for your losses during this period, I hope you will accept this spiritual item!"

As he spoke, Fu Chenguang handed over a white jade pendant.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be so polite. Please accept it..."

Before Li Zhirui could finish speaking, the jade pendant was thrown into his arms. When he looked over, he found that the other party had closed his eyes to comprehend the formation. Helpless, he had no choice but to accept it.

After playing with it for a short while, he knew its effects. It was a Celestial Immortal-level spiritual object. Normally, it could be used to store magical power. In the event of battle, it could not only absorb the magical power directly into the body, but also use the stored magical power to perform attacks, defenses and other supernatural abilities. It was quite precious.

"Interesting! Who would have thought that there would be so many surprising things in this small valley?"

A mutated spirit that has developed intelligence, spiritual water with special effects, and a valley that has formed an innate array—three rather precious spiritual objects have appeared in this small place.

Li Zhirui sighed, then walked to the other side, took out a jade slip containing the cultivation techniques of Earth Immortals, and immersed himself in it, beginning to comprehend it from the beginning.

In truth, it could only be the two of them. Other cultivators would never have spent such precious time in the secret realm on comprehending the Dharma.

After all, time in the secret realm is limited, so we should seize the time to find spiritual items and accumulate cultivation resources. As for other things, we can do them after we leave.

……

at the same time.

In the center of the secret realm, the place with the most abundant spiritual energy.

A large group of cultivators gathered here, but it was clear that they were divided into two factions.

On one side were cultivators from forces like the Three Profound Sect, and on the other side were other cultivators.

Because the former possessed a map of the secret realm and knew the distribution of spiritual creatures, they went straight to this place upon entering, wanting to seize the time and harvest all the precious spiritual creatures planted here.

But to everyone's surprise, another group of cultivators also realized this!
Although they did not know where the core of the secret realm was, based on conventional thinking, they guessed that it would most likely be in the central region, and certainly in the place with the most abundant spiritual energy.

So even without a map, they still managed to find the core area by using secret techniques and following the clues of the density of spiritual energy, though it took them a little longer.

Moreover, by the time they arrived, the spirit creatures had not yet been completely harvested.

After all, the spirit creatures here are quite precious, and some of them are not yet mature, so they must be transplanted carefully, which naturally slows down the process considerably.

Left with no other choice, the Three Profound Sect and other forces could only deploy cultivators to hold off the enemy at the front while simultaneously accelerating the collection of spiritual items. As for whether this would damage the spiritual items, they could no longer afford to worry about that now.

Even if the spirit is damaged, it's better than it falling into the hands of others.

However, as the number of cultivators on the other side increased, all the cultivators from the Three Profound Sect had to stop what they were doing, come outside the spirit field, and begin to confront them.

The two sides were several miles apart, clearly separated, and the atmosphere was far from harmonious; on the contrary, it was tense and the smell of gunpowder was gradually thickening.

The slightest spark could ignite a massive war!

"Fellow Daoists, since ancient times, spiritual objects have always belonged to those with virtue. You have already collected a large number of spiritual objects, so don't be too greedy," a rogue cultivator Earth Immortal reminded them, seemingly out of kindness.

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, a low-level immortal from the Three Mysteries Sect scoffed disdainfully, saying, "You speak so righteously, but aren't you just thinking of pocketing all the spiritual treasures?!"

“These spiritual creatures were planted by our families many years ago. They are not wild, unclaimed spiritual creatures. Please go back!” Another earth immortal said humbly, but also very firmly.

No matter what, they will not give up these spiritual creatures.

Not to mention the time it takes for these spiritual creatures to grow, and how many years they have waited for them, these spiritual seeds are quite valuable and rare, and are not easily obtained.

"It seems we still have to have a showdown to determine a winner." The other Earth Immortal was equally determined and unwilling to back down.

Since they couldn't reason with them, they didn't bother to waste any more words and just took action!
Although they were missing two or three Earth Immortal cultivators, their numbers were three or four times that of the enemy, so the difference in strength was not significant.

Moreover, cultivators are constantly arriving and joining their side, unlike cultivators from the Three Profound Sects, where most of their disciples are already here!
So as long as they persevere, final victory will surely belong to them.

As for how those spiritual objects should be distributed, that's a matter for the future.

"Ha! A group of people have fallen into a trap, becoming henchmen for no reason. Do they think they'll even get a share of a spiritual item in the end?"

Clearly, the cultivators from the Three Profound Sect were also aware of this problem and were trying to use it to sow discord among the crowd, buying themselves more time. "Excuse me!"

But the other group of cultivators naturally wouldn't let them succeed. As soon as they finished speaking, several Earth Immortals took the lead and launched an attack.

Rumbling--

One after another, powerful and dazzling divine abilities erupted from their palms.

A bolt of lightning, over ten feet in size, descended from the sky, followed by a barrage of ice blades and a mountain hundreds of feet high...

Some cultivators with lower cultivation levels felt terrified just from seeing these supernatural abilities, fearing that the attacks would fall on them and easily take their lives.

"Humph!"

"You dare to embarrass yourself here with such trivial skills?!"

The three immortals from the Three Mysteries Sect had grim expressions. They let out a cold shout and unleashed their supernatural powers, which far surpassed those of their opponents.

This is also one of the advantages that sect and family cultivators have over independent cultivators.

Since the Earth Immortal cultivators were already engaged in fierce combat, the other cultivators naturally couldn't just stand by and watch. They unleashed their best skills and joined the battle.

"Die!"

"go to hell!"

……

Various angry and violent words rang out one after another in this land that had been turned into a battlefield.

But the next instant, it was covered by a large number of explosions and roars, with a few screams and wails faintly heard in between.

Just by listening to the noise, one can imagine how fierce the battle must have been.

Fortunately, both sides still retained a sliver of reason, knowing to stay away from that spirit field to avoid harming the spirit creatures during the battle, and to avoid ending up with nothing.

The battle had only been raging for half an hour when the ground was covered with corpses, blood flowing everywhere, and bones and flesh scattered all over the place. It didn't look like a sacred place at all, but rather like a dangerous place.

As the number of casualties increased, the two sides gradually became more serious, no longer fighting for the spiritual object, but more like fighting to kill each other!
Then, on the third day after the outbreak of the great war, the first Earth Immortal cultivator fell!
However, the death of this rogue cultivator did not stop the great battle; on the contrary, the battle between the two sides became even more intense.

After all, both sides are exhausted from the battle and can't hold on for much longer.

The Three Mysteries Sect believed that their high-end combat power was far superior, and that as long as they were willing to put aside their pride, they could definitely deal with this rabble.

The other side of the cultivators thought that they had a large number of people and a steady stream of cultivators coming to their aid. As long as they held on, victory would definitely be theirs!
Both sides held this thought in mind, gritting their teeth and persevering, waiting for the other to collapse so that they could seize the opportunity to win.

However, they overlooked one thing: the battlefield was now quite far from that spirit field!

The cultivators on the edge of the battlefield could no longer see any trace of the spirit fields.

And in this situation, the unexpected happened!
"not good!"

A cultivator who had mastered pupil techniques had just defeated an opponent when he looked up towards the spirit fields and saw a sight that made his eyes widen in fury. Terrified and enraged, he shouted, "All the spirit creatures have been harvested!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing these words, the surrounding cultivators felt as if a bucket of ice-cold water had been poured over them, instantly snapping them out of their battle.

They disregarded the fact that their enemies, who had been fighting to the death with them just moments before, and flew toward the spirit field at top speed.

Then they saw that the spirit field, which used to be full of spiritual creatures, had become a barren wasteland. Not to mention spiritual creatures, there wasn't even a single leaf or root to be seen!
boom--

In an instant, a tremendous explosion flashed through everyone's minds, leaving them dizzy, dazed, and standing there dumbfounded.

"Something bad is going to happen!"

"Stop hitting it! The spirit is already gone!"

Several cultivators suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly shouted, but their voices were filled with sobs and cries that could not be concealed.

They risked their lives fighting not far away, all for the chance to obtain a spiritual item, but reality dealt them a heavy blow that they simply couldn't accept.

"Ahhhh!"

Many cultivators seemed to have gone mad, shouting wildly with crazed expressions.

Such a commotion naturally attracted the attention of other cultivators, and many cultivators flew over one after another. They immediately discovered the barren spirit field.

"How is this going?!"

"Where are those spirit creatures?! They've all disappeared!"

Even the few Earth Immortals who arrived later felt their vision go black upon seeing this scene.

"Was it you who secretly sent cultivators to steal those spiritual items?!" a cultivator from the Three Profound Sect suddenly questioned loudly.

"Bullshit! We're all on the battlefield, we don't have time for such petty theft. I think it was you who did it. You knew you were no match for us, so you used these methods to harvest all the spiritual creatures!"

"Who says we're no match for them!"

……

Both sides were already harboring resentment, and now, due to the sudden disappearance of the spiritual object, a conflict erupted without hesitation. With more and more cultivators joining the fray, it seemed that another great battle was about to break out!
"enough!"

"Shut up, everyone!"

The Earth Immortal, annoyed by their noise, unleashed his full authority to silence the cultivators. Only then did he turn to the Earth Immortals opposite him, asking with a weary yet tentative tone, "Fellow Daoists, what do you think is going on?"

"Some thief must have taken advantage of our inattention and secretly stolen those spiritual items!"

A certain Earth Immortal gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with anger, and said, "This matter absolutely cannot be let go, as there are quite a few precious spiritual items among them, such as the Three-Element Ascension Pills!"

At the same time, he deeply regretted not collecting the mature spiritual objects first, but instead carefully storing these precious spiritual objects instead, regardless of whether it would damage them. (End of Chapter)
