Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 470 - 476 Prelude

Chapter 470 -476: Prelude
If precious Spiritual Objects were cultivated, it would increase the desire of the Devil Race to raid—an urge not just for the objects themselves but potentially costing the clan members their very lives!
After all, the Li family’s current strength, though somewhat deterrent, counts for little in presence of sufficient incentives.
Even if Li Zhirui personally approached the Devil Race to demand the culprits, what could he do if they simply threw a few Foundation Establishment Devil Beasts at him?
Thus, despite being rich in Spiritual Energy, a third-grade Spirit Vein, the Li family could only manage it in a roughshod manner due to inadequate power to defend it.
“Are you sure you want to establish a sect in Hongluo State?” Li Dayuan looked deep into his eyes, saying, “You know, that Spirit Vein is close to Great Void Province, and you could face the Devil Race’s assault at any time.”
“Of course!” Xie Tianyu had already seriously considered it several times before coming.
Although that Spirit Vein was more dangerous, it was the only third-grade Spirit Vein owned by the Li family that had not been properly exploited. If it were any other third-grade Spirit Vein, the Li family might not let him have it.
As for second-grade Spirit Veins, Xie Tianyu had never considered them, as the Spiritual Energy they generated, after supplying his own cultivation needs, was barely left.
Cultivation for the other disciples and cultivation of Spiritual Objects—all these required ample Spiritual Energy, didn’t they?
Aside from that reason, there was another point—that location was close to Great Void Province!
While the Devil Race was strong, on the periphery, only lower-tier Devil Beasts roamed; their existence served both as a training ground for disciples and a source of initial funds for the nascent sect, contributing to its growth.
“Since you’ve decided, I will arrange for someone to handle the handover with you. As long as our senior does not betray the family, that Spirit Vein won’t be taken back by the family,” Li Dayuan said calmly. “Good luck to you.”
That was what Li Zhirui had instructed him to say. Otherwise, even as the Clan Leader, Li Dayuan wouldn’t have the authority to determine the ownership of a third-grade Spirit Vein.
When Xie Tianyu left Wanxian Island, a flash of excitement passed through his eyes. Now, he had truly climbed the ranks of the Li family!
A Loose Cultivator who had become a Golden Core thanks to Li Zhirui, he wanted to advance even further, but doing so on his own was almost impossible.
Even if he founded a sect, it would provide limited aid, as the growth of any power requires time.

The Li family, on the other hand, was already mighty, and with their two Gold Core Formation Pills, it wouldn’t be long before their strength surged.
By then, even he as a lesser figure might sneak a taste of the spoils.
Soon, news that Xie Tianyu, a Loose Cultivator Golden Core, was to establish a sect spread through the five states governed by the Li family as well as Wanxian Island.
Disciples would be chosen from among Loose Cultivators, especially Foundation Establishment Cultivators, who would have the chance to become sect administrators after passing tests.
Like a bomb thrown into deep waters, Xie Tianyu’s Tianluo Sect stirred up countless ripples, drawing many Loose Cultivators to Hongluo State, aspiring to join the Tianluo Sect.
After all, it was a Golden Core Sect, not a Demonic Tao power, and in any case, being part of it was better than remaining a Loose Cultivator.
Meanwhile, the Li family had many internal matters to attend to.
The clan members busying themselves with the preparations for Jiang Fengwu, Li Zhixuan, and others’ trip to the Taixu Secret Realm, as well as Li Shiqing, Li Shilian, and Li Zhirui, were rigorously advancing a matter in an orderly manner.
This matter, the result of discussions between Li Zhirui and Li Shiqing, was to advise the family members at the latter stages of Foundation Establishment not to remain idle within the clan, vainly seeking breakthrough opportunities through secluded cultivation.
They should venture out, whether to travel the mortal world or to gain experience through combat. Either would be better than staying shut away, their daily activities unknown.
Although a portion of the clan members was reluctant, under the joint pressure of the three powerhouses, there was no room for negotiation—this directive had to be implemented thoroughly!
While it was not advisable to widely promote the Sky Cleansing Pill and the Golden Ganoderma Pill, to ensure they had sufficient motivation, Li Zhirui still divulged a bit of information.
“I wonder how many of them will eventually become Golden Core cultivators,” Li Shilian murmured to himself as he watched the last of the clan members at the late Foundation Establishment phase leave.
If it had been in the past, he would not have entertained such ‘audacious’ thoughts. In a group of a dozen or twenty, having even one achieve Golden Core would be considered quite an achievement.
Even with the Sky Cleansing Pill and the Golden Ganoderma Pill, Li Shilian’s confidence was not overly strong.
Otherwise, those major powers possessing various Core Formation methods would not consist of only dozens or hundreds of Golden Core cultivators.
One must realize that these major powers have tens of thousands, or even more than a hundred thousand disciples. Yet, among all the Core Formation methods, only one in a thousand succeeds in forming a Golden Core!
And this is still a scenario where these major powers expel a portion of their disciples from time to time. Otherwise, the ratio would be even smaller.
“The family has already created such excellent conditions for them; if they still cannot take that final step, nobody else is to blame,” said Li Zhirui, showing a touch of indifference.
When they were in seclusion for Core Formation, they only had at most one Spiritual Object that aided the process. Where were such favorable conditions then?
Li Shiqing preferred not to discuss this topic and changed the subject, “With just over a month left before the Secret Realm opens, I wonder how Zhixuan and the others are preparing.”
“You must trust in Zhixuan and their strength, not to mention the many Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts protecting them, coupled with various lifesaving measures. At the very least, they should return safely,” replied Li Zhirui with a smile.
Although Li Zhixuan was only at the early Golden Core stage, as a Sword Cultivator who had fought her way up, her strength far surpassed her cultivation level.
Li Chenghuo, who was also at the early Golden Core stage, was somewhat less powerful, and having had less experience, his combat skills were average.
However, his Life-bound Magic Treasure, the Nine Flames Burning Heaven Pagoda, possessed great destructive power, especially after it had assimilated the Earth Core Poison Flame!
As long as he could trap and confine a cultivator, even ordinary cultivators at the late Golden Core stage would likely face death.
Moreover, the two of them were accompanied by Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts; these third-order Spirit Beasts were a formidable force in combat.
Among the three people heading to the Secret Realm, Jiang Fengwu, with the highest cultivation, had the strongest combat capabilities!
Without Da Qing and Xiaoqing, Li Zhirui would not have been so confident in her, but with these two Contracted Spirit Beasts, Jiang Fengwu had enough time to set up her formations.
It is known that an Array Master’s combat capability varies greatly before and after setting up a formation. If Jiang Fengwu is given enough time, even when facing several Golden Core opponents, she might not be at a disadvantage.
