Rebirth of the Li Family Immortal Road

Li Xunming thought Liu Mingjuan's suggestion was acceptable. He thought that no matter whether he broke through from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, or from Foundation Establishment to Core Formation, the breakthrough would be completed in the family's ancestral land.

Breaking through from the Jindan stage to the Yuanying stage, perhaps breaking through in the family’s ancestral land would bring you better luck.

After failing to break through this time, I am already very lucky to be able to maintain the current state. No matter if my realm has dropped or my foundation has been damaged by a serious injury, I will not have the chance to break through to the Nascent Soul stage next time.

Now the eldest sister Li Xunting is still in seclusion to reach the Nascent Soul stage. Li Xunming naturally hopes that she can succeed. When he reaches the Nascent Soul stage next time, it would be best if there are two Nascent Souls in the family.

Liu Mingjuan and Li Xunming chatted for about half an hour and then separated.

On the second day after Li Xunming returned to the cave, information about the family's development in Liyue City in recent years was handed to him.

"...Renjie has successfully entered the late stage of foundation building. Not bad, not bad."

Looking at the information in his hand, Li Xunming's somewhat lost mood suddenly felt much better.

Just three months before he came out of seclusion, Li Renjie broke through from the peak of the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage of foundation building.

According to Li Renjie's hard training progress, he should be able to reach the peak of foundation building in less than 30 years. If Li Renjie can successfully form a golden core afterwards, he will be a golden core cultivator in his early 100 years old, which would rank first in the family's special spiritual roots in terms of the speed of forming a golden core.

The cultivators with natural spiritual roots in the family can successfully form a golden elixir before the age of 100.

……

Qing Kingdom, Evergreen Mountain.

This year, Li Qianqing didn't care about the bad news.

Although Li Xunming failed in his retreat to reach the Nascent Soul stage, he still had a chance to make a second attempt, and he did not use his Yuanchu Qi. Having personally experienced the Nascent Soul stage, even though he failed, it could bring Li Xunming a lot of benefits.

The next time Li Xunming attempts to reach the Nascent Soul stage, Li Qianqing has some confidence that he will be able to break through successfully.

This would not be considered bad news. The real bad news would be if Li Xunming failed in his attempt to reach the Nascent Soul stage and died.

The family has lost a peak Jindan cultivator. You should know that Li Xunming still has more than a hundred years of life left. He is not the kind of peak Jindan cultivator who would try to break through to the Nascent Soul stage when his life is almost exhausted.

In addition to the news that Li Xunming failed to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, the good news was that Li Qiuben succeeded in breaking through to the late stage of Core Formation, and he succeeded in one breakthrough.

Li Qiuben, who has a body of grass, can take care of and ripen more spiritual medicines after breaking through to the late stage of Jindan. Almost all of the fourth-grade medium-grade spiritual medicines planted in the fourth-grade upper-grade spiritual field can be ripened.

When Li Qianqing refines fourth-level pills later, he can refine more at one time.

Time flies.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye.

In October, the temperature is no longer cool and turns slightly chilly.

Now, more than seven years have passed since Li Xunting went into seclusion to reach the Nascent Soul stage. If another four months pass, it will be a full eight years.

Li Qianqing, who was practicing in the cave, suddenly stopped practicing.

He felt a special change in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. This change was very small at the moment, and if he was not a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, he really would not be able to feel it.

"Tingting's retreat is almost in the final stage."

Secluded for more than five years to reach the Nascent Soul stage means that there is a good chance of reaching the final stage, and this final stage is naturally to survive the minor thunder tribulation.

Only by successfully overcoming the minor thunder tribulation can one truly break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Li Qianqing did not continue to practice, and soon left the clan leader's cave and came to a place not far from where Li Xunting was in seclusion to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

According to his estimation, a small thunder disaster will appear soon.

Less than half an hour had passed when the originally clear sky was suddenly covered with thunderclouds.

Powerful roars came from the thunderclouds, as if indicating that a big thunderstorm was about to strike.

Li Qianqing looked up at the thunderclouds in the sky. As long as Li Xunting could survive this small thunder tribulation, she would be able to become a Nascent Soul cultivator. He could only watch and could not give Li Xunting any help. If he intervened, then this small thunder tribulation would not only strike Li Xunting, but also him.

The thunder tribulation cannot be interfered with!

The thunder that strikes him will definitely kill him. If it cannot be killed in a short period of time, then it will continue to strike him until he dies.

Strange phenomena occurred in heaven and earth. Most of the Li family's foundation-building and core-forming cultivators in Changqing Mountain, if they were still practicing, left their caves. Under such circumstances, it was difficult for them to continue practicing.

At this moment, in Changqing Mountain, only Li Qiuben looked up at the sky, and then continued to take care of the Jinyuan Black Grass on the fourth-grade lower-grade spiritual field as if nothing had happened.

The strange phenomena in heaven and earth will not have any impact on him. No matter whether it was the last time when Li Qianqing reached the final stage of breaking through the Nascent Soul, or Li Xunting’s current situation, he believes that they will definitely break through successfully, so there is nothing to see. It is better to use this time to study and take care of the elixir.

"Someone from the Li family has formed a pill again."

"I would never see the Dan formation phenomenon in my life, but after moving here, I have seen it twice. This is the third time."

"Idiots! Look carefully, is this the phenomenon of forming a pill in the sky? Obviously not, this is the thunder tribulation that one must go through to break the pill and become an infant!"

The monks in the inner city of Changqing City couldn't help but look up when they saw the sky suddenly turn dark.

Most of the cultivators here cannot tell the signs that a strange phenomenon is beginning, whether it is a phenomenon of forming a pill or the cultivator is about to break through the pill and become an infant. A few cultivators have some understanding of this aspect.

"What did you say? This is the thunder tribulation that breaks the elixir and becomes an infant. This means that the Li family will have a second Nascent Soul cultivator."

"Jie Dan is different from Yuan Ying. It's too early to say that now. Do you know how many people at the peak of Jin Dan have fallen in the thunder tribulation in our three small countries over the past tens of thousands of years?"

"How much exactly?"

"Well...anyway, it's more. How would I know the exact number?"

The cultivator who knew that this was the thunder tribulation that would lead to the formation of the Nascent Soul quickly corrected the views of other cultivators who thought this was the anomaly of forming the Dan. Soon, most of the cultivators in the inner city of Changqing City knew that the cultivator of the Li family was going to pass the thunder tribulation and become a Nascent Soul cultivator.

“I didn’t expect that I would be able to see the thunder tribulation of breaking the elixir and becoming an infant in my lifetime. I hope I won’t have any regrets.”

"What regrets can you have?"

"If Senior Li fails to break through, I will just regret not seeing the birth of a Nascent Soul cultivator."

"After you put it like that, I don't want to have any regrets."

Whether it was the Li family cultivators or the cultivators in the inner city of Changqing City, in the face of such changes, they all put down what they were doing, and the adults in the outer city of Changqing City, who were still on the streets, also stopped and looked in the direction of Changqing Mountain. The outer city was not completely covered by the thundercloud. Below the edge of the thundercloud, some children were jumping around in and outside the shadows, having a lot of fun.

"Grandma has reached the final step of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage."

Li Tongxin came out of the house with his mother. He had just made a breakthrough in kendo at the beginning of this month.

Every time after completing a breakthrough, he would take some time out to visit his mother in the outer city.

He had already arrived in the outer city the day before yesterday, and this time he would stay for three days.

After completing the breakthrough in swordsmanship, even though he is only in the initial stage of foundation building, his offensive means are comparable to those of some cultivators in the late stage of foundation building. According to his current cultivation speed, he will be able to cultivate to the peak of the initial stage of foundation building in another seven or eight years, and then directly break through to the middle stage of foundation building.

With his natural spiritual roots and special physique, if nothing unexpected happens, he will be the fastest cultivator in the Li family to form a golden elixir. If he moves quickly, he may not even need to wait for fifty years to reach the foundation-building stage.

In the Evergreen Mountains.

A fiery red figure appeared next to Li Qianqing.

"Clan leader." Li Yiqing bowed to Li Qianqing.

Among all the Jindan cultivators of the Li family, Li Yiqing was the one who received the most guidance from Li Qianqing after Jindan, although most of this guidance was not on cultivation, but on alchemy.

Today, Li Yiqing is already very good at refining third-grade mid-range elixirs. She now accounts for 70% of the family's third-grade low-range elixirs, Li Qianqing accounts for 30%, and 10% of the third-grade mid-range elixirs are given to her to refine.

As her alchemy skills become more and more powerful, this proportion will further expand.

“…Luckily I was just refining the second-grade superior quality Spiritual elixir, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to get out now.” Li Yiqing felt that his luck was pretty good.

She is now the one who refines more than 90% of the second-grade high-quality elixirs. As for the second-grade mid-quality elixirs, she hasn't refined them for a long time. It is mainly the responsibility of other alchemists in the family.

"It's about to start." After chatting with Li Yiqing for a few words, Li Qianqing suddenly said.

What he was referring to was naturally Li Xunting's minor thunder tribulation. The first thunder was about to come.

Boom!

Before the dull thunder was heard, the violent energy from the sky poured down, and lightning bombarded the place where Li Xunting was in seclusion. From the outside, there was no change outside the cave.

Unless the cave is a defensive measure performed by Li Xunting, it will not be affected by the thunder tribulation, and the thunder and lightning will naturally not cause any damage here.

There are three small thunders in total, each one more powerful than the last.

A cultivator at the peak of the Jindan stage can reach the last step of breaking the elixir and becoming an infant. The least number of cultivators fall on the first thunder, and the most will naturally fall on the third thunder.

If you fail to survive the thunder tribulation, you won’t be able to come out of it intact like Li Xunming. If you fail, there is no hope of survival.

Being alive means successfully surviving the minor thunder tribulation, and dying means dying. There is no serious injury. If the first and second thunders end, as long as the breath is still there, the following thunders will continue to strike.

There is a gap of ten breaths between the first thunder and the second one.

There were continuous flashes of lightning in the thunderclouds and dull sounds were heard continuously. Although the situation in the cave was unknown, it was obvious that Li Xunting had passed the first thunder.

Before the retreat, Li Qianqing knew all of Li Xunting's methods.

He felt that there was great hope for his eldest granddaughter to survive the minor thunder tribulation.

When the first bolt of lightning struck, Li Yiqing was no longer speaking, his eyes fixed on the cave where Li Xunting was in seclusion in the distance.

Ten breaths later, a second, more powerful thunder fell.

Li Xunting also made it through successfully.

The third thunder is also the strongest one. The interval between it and the second thunder is usually about thirty breaths. This ample time also gives the cultivators plenty of opportunities to catch their breath.

About twenty breaths later, a cold air overflowed from the cave where Li Xunting was in seclusion. The next moment, dark blue frost covered the stone door of the cave. Ice cones continued to grow from the mountain. In less than three breaths, the mountain where Li Xunting's cave was located seemed to have arrived at an extremely cold place.

Li Qianqing knew that this was Li Xunting's last resort to survive the thunder tribulation, and it was also the seventh-grade spiritual technique she learned after forming the elixir.

With the normal release of this spiritual art, Li Xunting was basically safe after getting through the third thunder.

Li Yiqing couldn't help but shiver twice. Even she, a Jindan cultivator, felt cold, mainly because she was close to the cave where Li Xunting was in seclusion.

Seeing this, Li Qianqing waved his hand, and a fiery red light shield appeared in front of Li Yiqing, protecting her from the severe cold.

"Thank you, clan leader." Li Yiqing felt much warmer now.

The most powerful thunder poured down, lightning emerging from the mountain gushed out everywhere, thunder and ice continued to intertwine, and finally slowly stabilized.

It was at the moment when the energy stabilized that a golden-blue beam of light shot up into the sky, dispersing the thunderclouds. At this moment, the sky returned to clear skies.

A huge vortex of spiritual power formed around the golden-blue light column, madly attracting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Unlike the time when Li Qianqing broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, there is now a medium-sized spiritual vein at the foot of Changqing Mountain. Even if the spiritual energy is absorbed in this way, it will not cause any impact in the short term.

It worked!
Li Xunting successfully survived the minor thunderstorm.

The second Yuanying of their Li family was born!
Faced with this situation, Li Qianqing nodded with satisfaction. Soon after, he felt the temperature around him dropping rapidly.

Different from the previous situation when Li Xunting resisted the thunder tribulation, the temperature drop now did not feel biting. Not to mention the Jindan stage cultivators, even the foundation building stage cultivators could resist it very easily. Li Qianqing no longer had to protect Li Yiqing from the cold.

"Yes, the potential of the Ice Spirit Body has been tapped to 70%."

The emergence of this situation clearly means something to Li Qianqing.

The last time Li Xunting formed a pill, under the effect of forming a pill, the potential of the Ice Spirit Body was tapped to 60%. The potential tapping of special physiques becomes more and more difficult as time goes by. After forming a pill, Li Xunting naturally never stopped tapping the potential of the Ice Spirit Body.

Especially after the Li family became a Nascent Soul cultivating family and became the overlord of the three small countries, the family's collection of materials for excavating the Ice Spirit Body became faster.

Even so, after 60% of the potential of the Ice Spirit Body has been tapped, the subsequent progress can only be described as snail-paced.

If Li Xunting had not broken through the pill and become an infant, and had not broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, and used the cleansing of the thunder tribulation to further tap the potential of the Ice Spirit Body, even if Li Xunting had used three or four times the resources before, she would not have been able to tap the potential of the Ice Spirit Body to 70%.

The potential of a special physique will have different changes when it reaches 60%, 70%, and later 80% or 90%. If it can be fully tapped to 100%, the special physique at that time will be a truly special physique.

It is worth mentioning that Li Qiuben’s plant body has not yet been tapped to 60%, but it is not far from 60% now. If Li Qiuben does not break through to the Nascent Soul stage, he should be able to successfully tap the potential of his special physique to 60%. (End of this chapter)
