Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1924 - 1431: Pending Revision
Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
"Who could have imagined that the Li family's fortune would prove so fortunate? During their initial venture into an Outer World, they stumbled upon a Middle Thousand Worlds," Li Zhirui extended his Divine Sense to scan the area around them, a flicker of astonishment appearing in his gaze.
A Middle Thousand Worlds caps cultivation at the Human Immortality Realm, so the top fighting force here edges out only those Earth Immortals fresh from breakthrough, still getting used to their enhanced might.
This setup still brings notable challenges for the Li family.
After all, stepping into an Outer World weakens one's complete power significantly, particularly with the Heavenly Dao Consciousness in play. Should the natives of this realm sense their existence is at risk, suppression might escalate into a unified assault from all corners!
To firmly dominate the locals here, just Li Zhirui, Li Zhixuan, and Li Mingyao—the trio of Heavenly Immortals—would need to step up personally.
Yet each carries their own duties. Li Zhirui must retreat into closed-door cultivation to hasten his transcendence; Li Zhixuan's location remains a mystery for now, though she's likely heading into The Void for tempering, chasing ways to elevate her own path.
What about Li Mingyao? He might hold the fort briefly, but as a Divine, staying away from home for extended times proves unfeasible.
For one like him, a Divine Ground no less, the pull from his Divine Domain weighs even heavier.
Naturally, the flip side boosts his prowess right within that Divine Domain.
Li Zhirui mulled it over briefly, a touch of disappointment stirring inside. It looked like the Li family couldn't claim this world anytime soon and would have to settle for quietly harvesting certain Spiritual Objects or techniques from it.
Don't assume a Middle Thousand Worlds falls short compared to the Primal Spirit Realm—even such lesser realms can yield brilliant treasures!
Take, for example, the Li family's inherited art, "Earth Spirit Tao Record," which came straight from a Middle Thousand Worlds.
Li Zhirui didn't aim for a cultivation technique or skill matching the caliber of "Earth Spirit Tao Record." Something that stood out clearly from Primal Spirit Realm norms would suffice.
At his current level, beyond top-tier methods, he craved fresh perspectives too.
In fact, those novel approaches could prove even more valuable at times!
It proves vital to recognize that every world nurtures its unique civilization, and tapping into that essence would offer immense gains for both Li Zhirui and the entire Li family.
"Hmm?"
His head snapped toward a particular spot as a distinctive aura radiated from there, its potency matching that of an Individual Immortal.
"Perfect timing—now that we've set foot in your domain, I ought to learn about this world. Let's kick things off by pulling some details from you." Li Zhirui flashed a relaxed grin and soared toward the silhouette, all while his kin observed closely.
"You..."
The figure barely got a word out before Li Zhirui's Divine Power wrapped around him, locking him in place without a twitch.
"Do you have any idea who I am? How dare you lay hands on me! Release me at once!" The captive seemed to detect peril, putting on a bold front that hid his inner fear.
Li Zhirui paid him no mind whatsoever and swiftly applied the Soul Searching Secret Technique, drawing a vast array of details on this world from the man's Sea of Consciousness.
This realm goes by the name Floating Light, where the Devil Race, Immortal Tao, and Demonic Tao maintain a tense three-way standoff, each wielding comparable might and carving up the lands evenly. Their present spot falls under the Immortal Tao's Wind Sound State.
The man originates from Wind Sound State's premier sect, Wind Sound Sect—not merely as a True Disciple, but with a Human Immortal grandfather providing solid support.
With that kind of pedigree, it's little surprise he opted for threats over pleas when Li Zhirui seized him.
Beyond this basic lore, the search uncovered plenty of scandalous moments.
All because the fellow cultivated a Dual Cultivation Skill!
Though it stayed within orthodox dual cultivation bounds, steering clear of the vile Absorption kind, the deeds it entailed left little to the imagination, and such paths often blur the edges between righteousness and wickedness.
Moreover, much of the man's Sea of Consciousness lay shielded by seals, clearly guarding key Wind Sound Sect techniques.
Even with his strength curbed by this realm's Heavenly Dao, Li Zhirui's discernment and cultivation level remained sharp, rendering those seals basic and rough in his view.
Breaking past them required scant effort on his part.
The standout find among them was the Dual Cultivation Skill the man had pursued. At first, Li Zhirui dismissed it outright; to his mind, dual cultivation simply revolved around Yin Yang Harmony, nothing fresh or remarkable.
Still, as he sifted through the memories, they flooded straight into his own Sea of Consciousness, forcing him to confront the details.
Yet the skill's clever design and depth far surpassed what he'd anticipated!
This unexpected twist hooked Li Zhirui's interest despite himself, prompting a thorough examination from beginning to end.
"Ha, who would've thought I'd snag such a fine reward mere moments after stepping into the Floating Light Realm."
Soon after, eyes reopening, he couldn't suppress a quiet chuckle.
Other sealed portions held Secret Techniques that complemented the main method, plus the cultivation notes and realizations from Wind Sound Sect's elders.
"Such a shame—it's plainly a pure Yin Yang Path technique, but they've twisted it into this tired take on dual cultivation."
From the man's recollections, Li Zhirui learned that the art known as "Yin Yang Joyful Bliss Scripture" had once been simply "Yin Yang Scripture."
Only the "Yin Yang Scripture" version was fragmented, and some genius from a past Wind Sound Sect generation had taken it upon themselves to complete the technique entirely.
