Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1899 - 1418: Pending Cultivation_2

After settling his condition, Li Zhirui directed his Divine Sense toward the Illusions formed by the Sea of Laws, searching for the right Law to grasp.

Creatures lacking enough Cultivation or a robust enough Spiritual Soul—how could they possibly understand the Laws and elevate their Realm? Here, the true value of this Illusion shines through.

Primarily, it enables those at lower levels to safely and easily grasp the Laws, offering advantages to every being across the Primal Spirit Realm.

The Wind Dao Law resembles a constant, mysterious, and shifting breeze, seeming tough to grasp right away.

Yet truly, engaging with it amounts to understanding the Law itself.

After a bit of insight, Xiaoqing’s progress remained modest, though still tolerable. Even so, he struggled to come to terms with it.

"If things keep going like this, how much time will pass before I reach Heavenly Immortal?" He muttered to himself, his voice laced with reluctance and fury.

Meanwhile, in Xiaoqing’s unguarded Sea of Consciousness, a dark figure silently appeared, its Demonic Qi starting to extend from its grasp and taint the whole Sea of Consciousness.

The lotus seed that Li Zhirui had concealed inside Xiaoqing’s Sea of Consciousness abruptly trembled, drawing his focus.

"What’s this..."

It was only then that Xiaoqing noticed, stunned to realize a Heart Demon had already formed within him!

"Gah gah gah!"

The Heart Demon planned to stay hidden longer, slowly eroding his resolve and Dao Heart while building its own power, until it could outright consume Xiaoqing’s Spiritual Soul and turn him into nothing more than its foundation.

But unexpectedly, it got exposed too soon!

With no other option, the Heart Demon shifted its strategy, dropping all pretense and launching a fierce assault, weaving the Heart Demon Illusion Realm and dragging Xiaoqing right inside.

The move happened so fast he barely had time to respond, just a quick blackout before his vision, and when his eyes opened again, it was as if he’d roused from a deep slumber.

At the same moment, stirred by Bai Lian, Li Zhirui close by picked up on the disturbance. Seated quietly in the meditation chamber, he turned his gaze toward Xiaoqing’s Cave Mansion.

"May you overcome this Trial!"

His words, faint like drifting mist, dissolved into nothing before reaching the earth.

...

"A thousand years of grueling Cultivation, at last achieving flawless Merit, prepared to face the Tribulation and charge into Heavenly Immortal!"

Stirring from his Cultivation session, Xiaoqing abruptly sensed a pull from the heart of Tianqiong, and with a light probe, he recognized it as a Thunder Tribulation.

Joy surged through him for an instant, free of any suspicion; he naturally examined his condition, and seeing it off, he promptly curbed his aura and settled into meditation to heal.

Taking a while to bring his spirit back to peak form, Xiaoqing boldly summoned the Thunder Tribulation, without a thought of possible defeat in the crossing.

Emerging from the Cave Mansion, he saw the heavens overhead crammed with thick Tribulation clouds, spanning scores of miles and appearing utterly daunting.

Still, Xiaoqing’s spirit held no hint of alarm or terror, holding firm to his unshakeable belief.

Rumblings——

The initial Tribulation Thunder crashed down, its immense, over-the-top might looking ready to impale Xiaoqing completely.

Yet he drew on his power to withstand the onslaught, which tempered his arrogance and made him more alert.

Nevertheless, during the fourth Tribulation Thunder, a brief lapse caused Xiaoqing to take a hit from it, though just light wounds; he ended up looking quite ragged.

With the fourth Tribulation Thunder hitting so hard, was there any way he’d survive the last five without harm?

Right then, a small crack formed in Xiaoqing’s once-solid assurance.

"Hehehe..."

As the schemer pulling the strings, the Heart Demon caught sight of this, flashing a thrilled grin, delighted to see its target sink deep into the Illusion it had crafted, the whole scene unfolding just as it dictated, the foe reduced to a mere plaything in its hands. Why wouldn’t it revel in that?

Simply slaying the foe outright paled in comparison to witnessing them, swayed by its influence, inch toward their doom step by step!

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.
