Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

"Alright, now you can cultivate on your own. Once you break through to the Loose Immortal realm, you can go to Biyou Island and rejoin the sect."

After successfully guiding the reincarnation of one of his junior brothers once again, Duobao said softly.

"Senior Brother, why don't you just take me back?" the cultivator asked curiously.

"Because I need to go find other fellow disciples, I can't take you back with me."

The cultivator spoke again, asking, "But the primordial world is so dangerous, can a mere rogue immortal safely return to Biyou Island?"

"Because this is a test."

When this was mentioned, Duobao's expression became quite serious, and there was no trace of warmth on his face, which was completely different from his gentle appearance before.

The stark contrast startled the monk who had asked the question, who thought he had touched on some taboo and dared not say anything more.

Although Shangqing Dao has accepted tens of thousands of disciples and seems to have no entry requirements, there are actually certain requirements!

It's just that the requirements for each disciple are different.

Just like Li Zhirui back then, before he formally joined the Shangqing Dao, the test he underwent was to enter the primordial world from the void.

It looked ordinary and unremarkable, nothing dangerous, and very simple. But you have to know that at that time he was just a Golden Immortal cultivator who had just broken through. Traveling long distances in the void, he was very likely to encounter dangers that he could not handle at all!

They might even be severely injured and perish from just a slight impact.

If it weren't for Li Zhirui's good fortune and the fact that he had a personal space to take refuge, he might have already died in some corner of the void.

After breaking through to the Loose Immortal realm, returning to Biyou Island is a test for these reincarnated disciples, and this is absolutely essential!
As for those who fail the test and die on the way, it only means that their fate with Shangqing Dao has ended and they cannot return to Shangqing Dao.

The cultivator was startled by Duobao's reaction and realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Cultivate diligently, and I hope to see you on Biyou Island someday."

Duobao returned to her gentle demeanor, left behind a word of expectation, and then transformed into a ray of light, flying away.

"A wandering immortal..."

The disciple was left with a helpless expression. He had only just entered the Transcendent Realm, and it was unknown how many years it would be before he could break through to the Loose Immortal Realm.

Not to mention the hardships and dangers along the way, which could have cost him his life at any moment!

……

the other side.

Following the spiritual object given to him by his teacher, Shangqing Daozun, Duobao began searching for the next reincarnated disciple.

Seeing that the distance between the two was not too far, they immediately flew in that direction.

Not long after, he arrived at a small human town.

Even though there were restrictions in the city, they not only couldn't stop him, but the restrictions didn't even react after he entered the city.

Restrictions are another form of formations, and as the senior disciple of Shangqing Dao, how could Duobao not know the Dao of formations?
As for the human immortal guarding this place, it would be even more impossible for him to discover his existence.

Soon, he found his reincarnated fellow disciple, a boy who was only a teenager.

For the boy, no further explanation was needed; he simply followed Duobao and began cultivating.

In the time that followed, he concealed himself and began to teach the boy cultivation.

This young man is quite talented, and in just a few months, he will soon be embarking on the path of cultivation.

Before long, Duobao will be able to go and find the reincarnation of his next fellow disciple.

"Senior Brother!"

Just as he was pondering this matter, a cry of surprise rang out behind him.

Li Zhirui was astonished to find Duobao, who was searching for a reincarnated fellow disciple or to resolve his mental obstacles, in a small human town.

He didn't put much effort into his methods of concealing his presence; as long as he wasn't discovered by the low-level human cultivators, he could just use them casually.

However, Li Zhirui, who happened to be there, saw through their scheme.

There was a reason why he appeared in this small human town.

After he left Tianxing City, he received a message from his senior brother Zhao Gongming, saying that the sect had agreed to his proposal to befriend the human race.

At the same time, he was also given a task: if he encountered a human city during his training, he could preach the Dao to the human cultivators there and make them develop a good impression of the Shangqing Dao.

He was also told that if a friendly relationship was truly established with the human race, the sect would send more disciples to the human race to spread the teachings.

However, since no agreement has been reached with the human race yet, he can only handle the situation alone. This way, he can express goodwill while avoiding the fact that Shangqingdao is too enthusiastic and might be looked down upon by the human race.

So Li Zhirui trained while preaching to the human cultivators he encountered, and by chance, he came to this small town.

"you are?"

Duobao turned around and saw that the person who called him was a Golden Immortal cultivator, but the person's appearance was very unfamiliar and he had no recollection of him.

If it hadn't been discovered that this person was practicing the Shangqing Daoist Scripture, his attitude would never have been so gentle.

When Li Zhirui came to Biyou Island and formally joined the Shangqing Sect, it was precisely when Duobao was most deeply troubled by his mental obstacles. How could he have any spare thoughts to pay attention to him?
In other words, Duobao, as the eldest disciple, didn't know Li Zhirui at all!

However, the authentic aura of the Shangqing Daoist scriptures emanating from him was undeniable; he was indeed his junior brother.

Li Zhirui wasn't surprised that Duobao didn't recognize him. In fact, he immediately understood the reason and explained with a smile, "Many years ago, when our teacher was lecturing in the Chaos Heaven, our senior brother should have seen me. I was the one who handed over the Chaos God and Demon Dao Body Method."

It wasn't that he was deliberately showing off, but this matter caused quite a stir in Shangqing Dao, and his identity could be confirmed quickly.

really!

Upon hearing this, Duobao immediately remembered and exclaimed in realization, "Oh, it was you!"

Then, with some curiosity, he asked, "How did you end up in this small human town?"

"Come and preach to the human cultivators in the city. If they develop a good impression of our sect, it will be easier for the two sides to become friendly or even form an alliance."

Li Zhirui didn't reveal the details or reasons behind it, mainly because he was worried that Duobao might make some connections to it, and if it made him feel even more guilty, that would be troublesome.

After all, for a long time, Duobao had been leading the Shangqing Sect, which is why he felt that the deaths of many fellow disciples were largely related to him.

Moreover, he is currently suffering from mental obstacles, which is a time when his mind is wavering and his Daoist heart is unstable. If he is stimulated at that time, the situation will become even more serious.

"Let's wait until Senior Brother returns to Biyou Island and ask Senior Sister Guiling for details." He added this to prevent Duobao from pressing him further. "Oh?"

Duobao was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Junior Sister Guiling and the others would come up with such an idea, but upon closer reflection, it seemed that it would not do any harm to Shangqing Dao.

As for what Li Zhirui said, he had no doubts whatsoever, nor did he think there was anything wrong with it.

In his view, it was perfectly normal for a Golden Immortal cultivator to be unaware of the details of such a major event, and he would never have imagined that the idea actually came from his Golden Immortal junior brother in front of him.

After discussing this matter, the two had nothing else to talk about, since they weren't familiar with each other.

"Junior Brother Li, you'll be preaching in the city soon, so please keep an eye on this person. He's the reincarnation of one of our fellow disciples." Duobao didn't reveal this to the young man.

No wonder!
Li Zhirui immediately understood why he had come to this small town. However, it was a small matter, so he nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I will give you plenty of pointers."

However, he won't stay for very long, and how much the boy can gain depends on his own comprehension and talent.

"Then I will entrust him to you."

After saying that, Duobao prepared to leave. He had originally planned to leave in the next few months, and now that he had met a fellow disciple who wanted to preach here, he didn't need to waste any more time here.

"Senior brother, wait!"

Li Zhirui quickly spoke up and immediately handed over a storage magic treasure containing nine mature Golden Immortal-grade purified white lotuses.

He originally planned to send a few Golden Immortal-grade white lotus seeds, but after thinking about it, he realized that Duobao was traveling all over the prehistoric world and had no way to properly cultivate them, so he changed his plan to send mature purified white lotuses instead.

Of course, he took out all the lotus seeds.

"what is this?"

Duobao took it and, the moment he probed it with his divine sense, he felt refreshed and relaxed, and his mind became much clearer.

"This is a purifying white lotus that I cultivated. It has many effects, such as purifying evil and impurities and calming the mind. I hope it will be of some help to you, senior brother."

It was with these thoughts in mind that Li Zhirui sent out the nine mature, purified white lotuses.

Given the current situation in the prehistoric world, Shangqing Dao urgently needs a cultivator at the Great Luo Perfection level to oversee it. Otherwise, if too much time passes, some forces might test the strength of Shangqing Dao.

And once they discover that Shangqingdao is weak, they might take action against it!
He knew that over the years, Shangqing Dao had offended many forces. Previously, with Shangqing Daozun in charge, there was no opportunity for revenge, but now the opportunity has appeared.
"As the senior brother, it's one thing that I didn't give you a gift when we met, but I'm even expected to accept the spiritual items you gave me. I'm truly ashamed."

Duobao said somewhat embarrassedly, "But I really need these spiritual items right now, so I shamelessly accepted them. Once this matter is settled, I will definitely give you a surprise gift, Junior Brother."

Over the years, he has guided many reincarnated fellow disciples to re-enter the Dao, and his condition has improved considerably. He is also aware of the situation he is in and can naturally distinguish between good and bad, advantages and disadvantages.

That's why she wouldn't refuse the nine purified white lotuses that Li Zhirui offered.

"Then I'll wait for the big surprise gift that Senior Brother mentioned."

He smiled and agreed, then added, "I've heard that Senior Brother is skilled at crafting magical artifacts. If we can incorporate other purifying spiritual materials to refine the White Lotus into a magical artifact, it might be even more useful."

"okay, I get it."

Duobao carefully noted down this suggestion. As the cultivator of the purified white lotus, he certainly knew more about the white lotus than Duobao did.

"Then I, your junior brother, wish you, senior brother, all the best and that you will achieve even greater success!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Duobao couldn't help but burst into laughter, and his mood improved considerably.

"I'm leaving now!"

Before the words were even finished, that glimmer of light had already vanished into the horizon.

Standing there, Li Zhirui watched his departing figure, recalling his senior brother's final actions, and a bright smile immediately appeared on his face.

He now felt that given his senior brother's condition, he would definitely be able to overcome this tribulation and break through to the Great Luo Perfection realm!
By then, the Shangqing Sect will have enough powerful figures to back them up!

Thinking of this, Li Zhirui was in a very good mood for the next few days. When he preached to those human cultivators, he became more attentive, not only speaking more carefully but also staying longer.

They didn't leave the small town until a month later.

As for the reincarnation of that fellow disciple, his talent was indeed outstanding. Before he left, he had successfully broken through to the Transcendent Realm.

"Cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind!"

Before leaving, Li Zhirui gave everyone a special warning, saying, "Don't become complacent and lazy in your cultivation just because you have achieved a little success. Don't think that you will be so powerful or strong in the future."

"Thank you for your teachings, Teacher Li. We will remember them forever!"

The cultivators stood up and answered.

As he visited more and more human cities, his reputation among humans grew, and they all addressed him as Master Li.

"Cultivate diligently, and perhaps we will meet again in the future."

After saying this, Li Zhirui transformed into a ray of light and left the small town.

After leaving, he had no destination in mind, so he randomly chose a direction.

Throughout his journey, he acted in this manner, without deliberately seeking out human cities or engaging in any special training.

However, the vast land is now teeming with human beings, so it's easy to encounter them.

After all, the human race's reproductive capacity is simply too strong, giving birth once a year, and sometimes even having two or more offspring at once!
In the thousand years following the great calamity of the primordial era, the human race took advantage of the fact that other races in the primordial world had suffered heavy losses and could not recover in a short time, and extensively occupied territories and built cities.

It can be said that the human race benefited the most from this great calamity!

Sure enough, not long after, Li Zhirui encountered another human city.

"Whoa!"

When he got closer and took a look, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Because this is the largest human city he has encountered so far!

The city walls of Tianxing City, which are tens of feet high and stretch for hundreds of miles, look like a giant elephant and a child in front of this giant city; the difference between the two is immeasurable.

At first glance, the edge of the city wall is nowhere in sight. When viewed from the sky, it looks like a straight mountain range, standing abruptly on the earth.

As soon as Li Zhirui approached, he felt an extremely strong pressure. The various magical artifacts and weapons gleaming coldly on the city wall sent a chill down his spine. (End of Chapter)
