Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1931 - 1434: Pending Cultivation (2)

Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
Li Zhixuan, having recently advanced to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, approached Clan Leader Li Xiuyuan with a bold proposal: to conquer the newly discovered Floating Light Realm and offer it to the Primal Spirit Realm as repayment for her causality with Heaven and Earth, aiding her early transcendence. Surprised by her initiative, Li Xiuyuan convened the Elders, who weighed the benefits of her ascension against the heavy casualties a rushed conquest might cause, contrasting it with the family's original plan for a gradual takeover over a thousand years. After deliberation, they offered support over fifteen hundred years, a timeline Li Zhixuan accepted without urgency, joined in discussion by Ancestors Li Zhirui and Li Mingyao.

Though defying the traditional path of cultivation, she must press forward with this method regardless.

Li Xiuyuan and the elders found the reply completely unexpected, leaving him stunned for an instant. After a short hesitation, he responded, "Of course, additional time would be ideal."

With Li Zhixuan showing no rush herself, they could opt for a strategy that reduces losses to capture the Floating Light Realm.

"I'll head off to consult the elders and devise a solid strategy promptly."

He arrived swiftly and departed just as fast, vanishing from view in no time.

"Jiu, Mingyao, I'll require your support on this issue."

Once Li Xiuyuan had gone, Li Zhirui, Li Zhixuan, and Li Mingyao picked up their earlier discussion.

Truth be told, it wasn't a big ask; she simply sought their aid in assaulting the Floating Light Realm. Solo, the burden on her would prove overwhelming.

Besides, the inhabitants of the Floating Light Realm aren't idiots. Should they sense their world's doom approaching, they'd undoubtedly drop their feuds and unite to repel the intruders.

Even as a mere Middle Thousand World capped at Perfect Human Immortal level, outsiders like them would face heavy suppression of their power upon arrival.

Therefore, the power balance between the factions lacks clear dominance, and the Floating Light Realm's denizens could potentially hold the upper hand!

"I'm okay with helping, though I'll mostly defend the outpost and avoid launching assaults," Li Zhirui stated openly.

He required time for his own cultivation and yearned to break through the Primal Spirit Realm. For minor issues Li Zhixuan might face, he'd gladly assist, yet world conquests—draining in time and energy—were tasks he hesitated to commit to repeatedly.

Furthermore, his prior pact centered on advancing his cultivation. While securing the outpost, Li Zhirui intended to study the Floating Light Realm's Purification Principle, deepening his command over the Laws.

As the proverb states, "Other mountains’ stones can polish jade!"

Despite being only a Middle Thousand World whose Laws fall short of a Great Thousand World's, the Floating Light Realm possesses distinctive features that Li Zhirui aims to comprehend.

"Ancestor Xuan, you're aware of my circumstances; I can't linger far from the Divine Domain extendedly. Still, wherever my aid is required, I'll provide it without fail!" Li Mingyao declared, true to his position.

Li Zhixuan breathed a sigh of ease at their words. She sought no extensive support; what they'd offered sufficed!

"That's plenty; I appreciate Jiu and Mingyao ahead of time."

"No need to be so polite; it's overly stiff."

Li Zhirui dismissed it with a gesture and added, "Get ready, and we'll head out. Summon us via Communication Talisman when the moment arrives."

"Alright."

They rose and departed. Beyond the courtyard, Li Mingyao inquired through voice transmission with curiosity, "Ancestor Rui, will Ancestor Xuan truly achieve transcendence by offering up the Floating Light Realm?"

"Numerous powers have attempted the Primal Spirit Realm breakthrough, yet success eludes them all! No records or tales speak of it."

Something about it always seemed off to him.

After all, were this technique viable, elite Immortal Tao sects would have employed it long ago, but no accounts exist of anyone succeeding thus far.

Li Zhirui paused briefly upon hearing this before saying, "We shouldn't dwell on it further. Should it fall short, Zhixuan will find another solution."

Speculating now feels premature. Besides, if issues arise post-sacrifice of a Middle Thousand World with lingering karma, alternative approaches can be explored then.

Yet equating Li Zhixuan to those mighty organizations and deeming the sacrificial technique futile overlooks the varying contexts.

Ancient Heavenly Immortals, enduring through endless epochs and devouring vast mana, inevitably face tougher karmic debts to settle.

Li Zhixuan, however, remains youthful, having drawn in far less Spiritual Energy, potentially allowing her to resolve karma via this offering.

En route to their individual Cave Mansions, Li Zhirui and Li Mingyao separated.

...

In another place, Li Xiuyuan returned to the clan hall and promptly shared Li Zhixuan's message with the group.

Objections ceased entirely at this point.

The span of two thousand years allowed the clan ample opportunity to seize the Floating Light Realm while keeping member losses to a minimum.

Their current task involves crafting a superior, low-risk scheme for the clan to implement moving forward.

"Flowers bloom in two branches; each expresses one."

In the vast mysteries of the starry expanse, inside the Yin Yang Divine Domain...

"Big brother, the family earlier transmitted that Aunt Zhixuan..."
