Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 255 - 261: News

"We're leaving now, and from here on, it will be tough on you, Shilian, to defend the family. Continue to produce various Spiritual Objects, even if we don't use them, we can still sell them to other cultivators," Li Shiqing gave his final instruction.

Now, before the great war has officially broken out, the prices of various Spiritual Objects have already doubled. It's believed that once the war erupts, the prices will undoubtedly increase further, presenting a good opportunity to earn Spirit Stones.

"Be careful, everyone must come back safe!"

But everyone knew in their hearts that this was impossible!

To protect the younger generation, those from the family who were going to the war were on the older side. For this, the family had given many Contribution Values, claiming them to be mission rewards, but in truth, they were no different from money paid to buy one's life.

Li Shiqing and Li Zhirui were unable to promise that they would return safely; to the family members who had come to see them off, they said, "Let's go, you all should head back."

With those words, the huge Spirit Boat activated and quickly ascended into the deep blue sky, soon disappearing from sight.

Perhaps catalyzed by this war, the younger members of the family no longer indulged in the glory of the clan. They became more diligent and hardworking, taking their cultivation more seriously.

And their efforts were rewarded with breakthroughs in cultivation; in a short time, many family members achieved breakthroughs, presenting a thriving and prosperous sight for the family.

Li Zhirui and the others, who were on their way to Myriad Thunder State, naturally could not imagine the great changes that took place in the family after their departure.

Although there were nearly a hundred family members on the Spirit Boat, it was not noisy at all since everyone was conserving energy, preparing to meet the war in their best condition.

Li Zhirui, in particular, whose Spiritual Soul had reached its limit due to his frenzied Alchemy in the recent days, went straight into the cabin as soon as he boarded the Spirit Boat to rest.

The Spirit Boat was very fast and reached the gate of Shen Leishan in just half a day.

As soon as they stopped, a Foundation Establishment cultivator came flying on a Spirit Sword to the front of the Spirit Boat and said, "I've seen Li Elder and all the fellow daoists. There are various prohibitions inside the mountain gate, please follow closely behind me!"

He didn't check the number of people from the Li family; just seeing the Li character flag, and the Li family crest was enough for him to come forward and greet them.

The Li family crest was easily recognizable, composed of elements from the races of the five Divine Beasts such as dragons, phoenixes, Kylins, and revolving around the talisman character 'Li'.

"Alright, you lead the way," Li Shiqing nodded.

Under his lead, the Li family members arrived in front of a third-grade Spirit Mountain, and he said, "Elder, this is where everyone will rest for now. If there's anything you need, you can contact the manager at Blue Stone Peak. Please do not wander around alone, to avoid triggering any prohibitions."

He then bowed and said, "I still need to guide other forces, so I will take my leave first!"

Seeing Li Shiqing nod, he dared to turn and leave, as he was just a disciple of a Nascent Soul sect and had to maintain the due respect for a Golden Core cultivator.

"It's no wonder it's Shen Leishan, casually offering up a third-grade Spirit Mountain for other forces to rest."

Of course, this wasn't a resting place exclusively for the Li family; there were several other Golden Core forces' teams on the mountain. Despite that, it was still an impressive display of wealth!

As for those Foundation Establishment and even Qi Cultivation dependents, they were not on this Spirit Mountain.

"Take advantage of the time before the war starts to rest well, in case there is no time to rest in the days to come," Li Zhirui emerged from the cabin at this moment and reminded everyone.

And the arrival of the Li family immediately caught the attention of the other families in the mountains.

"The new family from outside is the Li family from Wanxian Island?" a white-haired elder sneered dismissively, "Just a family with some luck. After this battle, they will surely decline. There's no need to pay them a visit, it's a waste of time."

"Elder, this..." a middle-aged man below him said with difficulty, "The Li family is currently in the limelight, and they even have a third-tier Alchemist among them. Who's to say we won't be seeking their help at some point?"

After all, it's just a visit to make acquaintance, and it won't take up much time.

"Hmph! How could my Zhou Family possibly seek help from them?!" The elder became instantly furious and scolded, "Don't speak of it any further! Go back and reflect on this!"

The middle-aged man could only bow and agree, but he felt somewhat helpless inside. Although their Zhou Family is known as the premier family beneath Shen Leishan, with nearly ten Golden Core Cultivators among them, including one that is a third-tier Alchemist.

But the strength of the Li family wasn't bad either; they were barely in the same league. If he paid them a visit, there was no question of losing face.

Unfortunately, the one leading the team this time was the fifth Elder, who held himself in high esteem and, except for his own family members and the Cultivators from Shen Leishan, looked down on everyone else.

Apart from the Zhou Family, the other Golden Core powers on the mountain had all arrived at the Li family's courtyard.

"I wonder if you have any third-tier healing Spirit Pills?" After some idle chit-chat, a Golden Core Cultivator suddenly asked.

"We do have some, but only a few; the cost of Spiritual Medicine has skyrocketed, so the Li family cannot bring out many Spirit Stones, making our Revitalizing Pills quite scarce," replied another.

"Would you be willing to part with a few Revitalizing Pills for us?" another Golden Core Cultivator joined in, trying to pressure with his status.

Although they had a considerable number of third-tier Spirit Pills, more of such precious items would always be beneficial.

"Sorry, we really can't," said Li Shiqing firmly, refusing without hesitation, for sometimes a single Revitalizing Pill could save a clansman's life!

"However, if you can gather the necessary Spiritual Medicine, my Li family can help with the Alchemy."

The crowd sneered in their hearts, criticizing his proposition, thinking he was trying to get something for nothing!

Handing over the Spiritual Medicine to the Li family, whether the Alchemy was successful or failed, it was all up to them to say. In the end, it was very possible they wouldn't get any Spirit Pills at all.

Seeing that no one was dwelling on this matter any longer, Li Shiqing breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to offend so many forces, but he couldn't possibly offer the Revitalizing Pills for sale.

He quickly shifted the topic, asking, "Everyone arrived before me, do you have any understanding of the upcoming battle?"

"I have heard a bit of news," whispered one of the Golden Cores. "It seems that Shen Leishan is preparing to organize a vast army of Cultivators, uniting the great powers of Green Mountain State to sweep straight across from the border region."

This approach was both convenient for exterminating the enemy completely and saved time. Most importantly, they would not have to worry about Demon Cultivators getting behind them and attacking from both sides.

But the biggest drawback was that the casualties would be extremely high!

For Shen Leishan though, this was no disadvantage at all, as most of the losses would fall upon the vassal forces' Cultivators and Loose Cultivators.

Upon hearing this, everyone instantly took a sharp breath. If this news were true, their situation would become much more dangerous.

Suddenly, no one was in the mood for further conversation, and people started to stand up and take their leave, possibly to verify the truth of the news or perhaps to adjust their strategy accordingly.
