Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2029 1483: Celebration (2)
Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
Surprise and joy filled the expressions of nearly every loose cultivator. These two spiritual objects alone made the journey worthwhile, especially since they were just the opening dish!
This only intensified their excitement to discover what additional spiritual treasures the Li family had in store.
Once the loose cultivators had gone in, the Li family's vassal groups from Shanhai State followed—beginning with the weaker ones and concluding with the Wind Breath Clan.
In reality, the Wind Breath Clan held no title as the strongest vassal of the Li family, yet their bond with the Li family ran deeper and warmer than with others, so they were rightfully placed to enter last.
Next arrived the Earth Immortal forces bearing invitations, each bringing valuable spiritual gifts.
Only afterward entered the Heavenly Immortal powers, including the Cave Abyss Sect and similar entities.
At this stage, the order of entry shifted away from power rankings. Instead, it followed whoever showed up first, taking their seats first.
After all, the Heavenly Immortal powers invited by the Li family—such as the Cave Abyss Sect, Yumen He Family, Xiaxian Sect—ranked among the elite factions, and the Li family lacked precise knowledge of their relative strengths.
Top powers like these always concealed portions of their true might in secrecy.
Ranking them rashly could spark unintended offense, hence arrival order proved the safer choice.
"Cave Abyss Sect presents a Three Lights Jade, wishing the Spirit Ancestors Qingpeng and Qingcang a bright future on the Great Tao!"
"Xiaxian Sect offers a Seven-colored Flowing Light Immortal Robe, hoping Spirit Ancestors Qingpeng and Qingcang will advance even further!"
Meanwhile, the Li family organized a special gift presentation for the Heavenly Immortal powers, ensuring they received utmost respect.
Truthfully, the gifts they offered were exceptionally rare, far from ordinary among Heavenly Immortal level treasures.
Almost every invited Heavenly Immortal power made an appearance!
Frankly, this turnout surpassed Li Debo's wildest hopes. He figured four or five attendees would be impressive, yet all of them turned up!
Luckily, his preparations included contingencies, preventing any embarrassment.
Simply admitting all these cultivators consumed several hours.
Still, by pressing forward swiftly, they caught the prime auspicious moment.
Bong—
A profound, echoing bell rang out, as if the sun itself aided the Li family, bathing Mount Wanxian in golden beams that cloaked it like imperial silk.
Suddenly, the All Heaven Stars in the Mountain Protection Array erupted with dazzling multicolored spirit radiance, enveloping all in magnificent splendor.
"The Heavenly Immortal Ceremony officially begins!"
Pre-arranged spiritual treasures were paraded out methodically by successive Li family cultivators.
Before every Heavenly Immortal sat a solitary jade tray bearing three petite jade cases, which looked somewhat sparse.
A few Heavenly Immortals betrayed faint contempt in their gazes, though they hid it well.
That changed when one pried open a jade box, revealing a pristine, spherical pill inscribed with Dao patterns.
"Hiss! A top-grade Heavenly Immortal rank spiritual pill!"
Despite his vast experience and composure, shock gripped him utterly in that instant.
Eagerly, he unveiled the remaining two boxes, only for brief letdown to shadow his eyes. He realized three top-grade pills were unrealistic, yet the outcome still stung.
Nevertheless, the other pair shone as superior pills with scant impurities.
Next to that supreme one, however, they dimmed considerably.
"The Li family is truly extravagant!"
Aware of Li Zhirui, the Heavenly Immortal Great Alchemy Master in their midst, the Heavenly Immortals still gasped in awe.
Fifteen Heavenly Immortals graced the event, earning fifteen top-grade Heavenly Immortal pills and thirty superior ones straight from the Li family.
Not all excelled in pill refinement, but everyone grasped its challenges—securing even one top-grade pill hinged on both mastery and fortune.
The Li family had poured years and endless pill batches into forging those fifteen masterpieces.
What escaped their notice: to Li Zhirui, top-grade pills were trivial, far cheaper than assumed.
Without worry of drawing suspicion or endangering the clan, he could have piled them into mountains effortlessly.
The banquet for Earth Immortal cultivators ahead appeared vastly richer.
Yet even amid lavish spiritual feasts on cloud platforms, spirit glows shimmering everywhere, none rivaled that lone top-grade pill's draw.
Human Immortal and solo immortal cultivators received lower-tier spirit fare in greatest volumes.
For them, boosting mana mattered most. Realm breakthroughs lay beyond their current horizon.
Thus, the Li family's generous spiritual bounty truly benefited them.
Once all had feasted to satisfaction, the festivity hit its pinnacle.
The Dao lecture!
This session stood out, featuring dual Heavenly Immortal lecturers.
Qingcang started, expounding his mastered Law of Water—skimming depths to spotlight key water divine abilities.
Even thus, countless cultivators gained immense insights.
Qingcang yielded, and Qingpeng stepped up promptly, mirroring the subjects but infusing Wind and Thunder Law.
Bong—
A resounding drum beat signaled the celebration's close for the day.
Regret lingered among many cultivators, yet Qingcang and Qingpeng departed straightaway, leaving no one fit to prolong the Dao discourse.
Moreover, the Li family scheduled a magnificent auction. Throngs of cultivators burned with curiosity over its rare offerings.
This gala alone proved it: though not an ancient Heavenly Immortal Clan, the Li family's roots ran profoundly deep, unleashing endless graded treasures from Loose Immortal to Heavenly Immortal.
"Honored elders and fellow Daoists, if you wish to attend the auction, please follow me."
Li Debo soon emerged before the assembly, beaming as he invited them.
His warm call sparked fervent echoes from the crowd.
Even broke loose cultivators trailed the masses; unable to purchase, they could still feast their eyes. Fortune might one day grant a rare find, recognized here, ripe for claiming.
The auction site lay nearby, spirit boats ferrying guests swiftly to the hall.
"Due to limited space, if you do not intend to bid, please stay outside!"
Li Debo offered genuine apologies, then continued, "Of course, live projections play outside; all can view the auction. Spot a desired spiritual object, and bid from afar too."
"Meanwhile, over a thousand stalls await. Sell spiritual objects or trade at them."
The Li family had foreseen every detail.
With that, Li Debo stepped into the hall, as outer clan kin assumed oversight.
Swiftly, the auction venue brimmed with cultivators.
One auctioneer emerged from behind, bearing a crimson-cloaked tray with the inaugural item.
Red cloth lifted, exposing the esteemed spiritual treasure.
"Chaos Spirit Jade!"
The auctioneer launched into description: "This rare jade, honed in the Void by chaotic spiritual energy across eons. Element-neutral, it blends seamlessly with any attribute. Perfect for crafting magical treasures or myriad applications!"
Whoa—
Commotion exploded in the hall: gasps, cries of wonder, some leaping up in thrill.
Yet none among them could vie for the Chaos Spirit Jade, barred by scant spirit stones—and cultivation base.
