Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 1888 - 1413: Pending Fix
Li Zhirui naturally had no idea that the exposure of his cultivation had given Feng Yan quite a shock, and now he was solely focused on leaving the Undying Volcano as soon as possible.
With his full exertion, in just a few days, he left this extremely hot region.
This adventure could be considered a perfect end.
After all, he had gained a lot along the way, and even if his luck was still flourishing, he had temporarily hit rock bottom.
Initially, Li Zhirui planned to fly from the South Sea to the East Sea, then enter the East Continent and return to the Shanhai State territory.
In this way, he would not have to venture into Human Territory and could avoid being suppressed by the human Daoist magic network.
But he forgot one thing!
That is, the conflict between the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Tribe had entangled them for countless years. Even though the strength of both sides had considerably declined, conflicts and wars broke out from time to time.
So when Li Zhirui continued southward to enter the South Sea, he suddenly discovered a large number of Sea Clan Water Devils were battling numerous Flying Feathered Birds ahead!
Given these circumstances, he naturally couldn’t return to his territory as initially planned and could only turn north and travel through Human Territory.
This wasted quite a bit of time along the way, and he once again entered the domain of humanity.
However, this time, Li Zhirui did not travel through the three great empires of Daqian, Great Xia, and Great Zhou, but opted for the route through several small countries that buffered between Great Xia and Great Zhou.
These small countries weren’t strong enough, and he possessed Ancestor Dragon Qi, making the suppression from the human Daoist magic network negligible.
If he encountered any dangerous situations, Li Zhirui could act directly, unlike in Daqian, where he had to scheme and lay out plans in secret.
After entering a small country named Qi Country, he did not immediately set off on his journey but vanished entirely.
At this moment, he had already entered the space realm.
With a thought, he chose a mountaintop to plant each of the five Spiritual Objects obtained from the Phoenix Clan’s secret vault!
To be informed, since Li Zhirui broke through to Heavenly Immortal rank, the area of space had become larger than some smaller Minor Thousand Worlds, and the Spiritual Energy rivaled that of Heavenly Immortal Rank Spirit Veins.
Under these circumstances, it revealed a problem!
He simply didn’t have the time to tend to and cultivate such a vast Medicine Garden.
He had also considered whether he could control some Devil Beasts to help manage it, but he had never encountered a suitable species and had no time to make a proper selection.
Thus, up until now, large swathes of spiritually dense Spirit Field in the space realm were either abandoned or occupied by some Spiritual Objects.
Therefore, allocating five mountain peaks solely for planting Ten Thousand Moisture Bright Light Xuan Lotus, Ten Thousand Water Treasure Spirit Root, Starlight Vine, Long Spirit Origin Tree, and Spirit Transformation Fruit was quite effortless.
Once each Spiritual Object was planted, it wouldn’t take long before they started devouring the nearby Spiritual Energy voraciously.
Luckily, the Space Spiritual Energy was incredibly dense and they were significantly far apart; otherwise, Li Zhirui would worry they might fight during their growth!
Don’t underestimate these Spiritual Objects just because they lack Spiritual Intelligence; their survival instincts could lead to frenzied slaughter, even more frightening than creatures with intelligence!
The former would fight relentlessly for survival, leading only to a you die or I live outcome; unlike the latter, who, when facing an enemy they couldn’t overcome, would have the option to flee.
After checking that the growth status of these Spirit Seeds was excellent, Li Zhirui chatted idly with the Five Elements for a while, advising to pay careful attention to the Spirit Seeds just planted, before he left the space realm.
...
Qi Country.
A small country only spanning three hundred miles, smaller than some remote regions of Daqian’s provinces, with merely tens of thousands of inhabitants.
It could utterly be described as a small country, barely surviving between Great Zhou and Great Xia, likely to become a battleground for the two empires at any moment.
Therefore, under such circumstances, everyone from the nobility to the common folk in Qi Country lived very lazily and aimlessly, seizing the day and indulging in pleasures.
Yet, precisely due to this unique environment, a wealth of enjoyment emerged instead.
As a result, somehow this little country became the favorite destination for the surrounding nations, allowing its people to live comfortably.
After gaining this understanding, Li Zhirui couldn’t help but display an odd expression; before this, he truly hadn’t imagined such an eccentric nation existed, and their lives were reasonably good.
"No wonder, even the Daoist magic network in Qi Country is more relaxed than usual."
Casually remarking, he wasn’t planning to linger in Qi Country; seeing dusk approaching, he decided to continue journeying.
By that evening, Li Zhirui reached the northernmost frontier city of Qi Country, beyond which lay a region named Great Marsh.
This was a vast marshland, about five to six hundred miles in size, and for around eight months each year, it was a gigantic lake.
Due to natural conditions, it was nearly impossible to form towns, so such a large territory remained unclaimed by any empire.
Yet within the marsh were numerous inhabitants, some fugitives from various countries, and others unwilling to pay exorbitant taxes.
There were also temporary dwellers, mostly fishers and herbalists, as the Great Marsh’s ecosystem is excellent, with abundant fish and herbal resources.
To cross this Great Marsh and reach the opposite Jiang Country, besides detouring or flying overhead, the most common method was by boat.
