Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2043 1490: All-Encompassing_2

Upon emerging from the formation, a subtle aura of the Earth Immortal Realm radiated from him, announcing his cultivation base to all onlookers.

His eyes scanned every direction, appearing to scrutinize and seek out something particular.

Right then, within a few dozen feet around him, aside from the handful of cultivators tasked with guarding, safeguarding, and powering the formation, no other cultivators were visible.

Although located in the Immortal City, shielded by the Li Clan's regulations, those loose cultivators still feared accidentally provoking him, opting instead to maintain a safe distance.

"Nothing remarkable here, so why does the sect hold this place in such high regard?"

This individual was named Wan Qingxuan; he hailed not from the Cave Abyss Sect, but from the prestigious Sky Sword Sect, situated even farther away, a time-honored Heavenly Immortal Sect.

This faction surpassed the Cave Abyss Sect in might; its mightiest and most cherished legacy was the Void Sword Dao, harnessing the Laws of Space!

Not just supremely dominant in battles, it also commanded Space Laws, enabling instant evasion through spatial arts against unbeatable foes.

Wan Qingxuan's journey to Shanhai State stemmed from years of hearing his Sect Leader and Elders extol the Li Clan's virtues, igniting profound curiosity within him.

Thus, the moment the Teleportation Array opened, he made quick preparations and teleported straight to the Li Clan's territory, burning to see firsthand the clan so lauded by his sect's seniors.

However, upon reaching Shanhai State, disappointment washed over him, as it seemed utterly unremarkable—actually quite barren.

"Perhaps it's due to the Li Clan's remote and secluded position?"

With that thought, Wan Qingxuan resolved to press onward eastward, taking his time to observe en route.

Heading east from the remotest barren expanses to the bustling Immortal City, he had witnessed plenty.

Yet, even at the Immortal City encircling Mount Wanxian—the grandest and most thriving hub in Shanhai State—he spotted nothing distinguishing it from other Heavenly Immortal forces, nor anything exceptionally noteworthy.

The sole minor distinction from the Sky Sword Sect was the Li Clan's openness to loose cultivators; numerous Outer World domains and Demon Beast Mountain Ranges were accessible for their training.

This stemmed from Wan Qingxuan's viewpoint clashing with that of the Sect Leader and Elders.

He figured the Li Clan's superiority lay in their overwhelming power or explosive growth potential.

Conversely, the Sect Leader and Elders commended the Li Clan for generously sharing benefits with loose cultivators, then reaping greater gains through alternative avenues.

The idea appeared straightforward, and countless powers grasped its value, yet reluctance to surrender their own shares kept implementations rare.

Exactly because of these divergent views, the misconception formed, leaving Wan Qingxuan blind to the true essence.

That changed when a specific rumor reached his ears, making him realize the Li Clan wasn't as underwhelming as he'd thought.

The news: the Li Clan was unlocking an Outer World domain from a Middle Thousand World, open to every cultivator!

For battle-thirsty Wan Qingxuan, this was monumental; back in the Sky Sword Sect, he'd only ventured into one Middle Thousand World before.

Facing another opportunity to enter a Middle Thousand World, how could excitement not surge through him?

Moreover, the Li Clan had mobilized, formally initiating a conquest of this Outer World dubbed the Primordial Beast Realm!

In truth, the Li Clan hadn't just uncovered the Primordial Beast Realm; years ago, they had accidentally found it, conducting only preliminary probes and surveys to gauge the Otherworld's conditions.

After some sacrifices, the Li Clan discovered with shock that humans in the Primordial Beast Realm weren't rulers—their position was pitifully low, treated as slaves and fodder by the Devil Race!

To be precise, the Otherworld's humans counted as an alien race too, but witnessing kin-like beings so brutally tormented by Devil Beasts stirred uncontrollable fury.

Nevertheless, lacking sufficient might and wary of endangering themselves and their kin, they refrained from hasty rescue attempts.

They didn't idle, though. Following extended debates, they crafted a strategy to hasten their domination of the Primordial Beast Realm!

"The animosity between humans and this realm's Devil Race must be sky-high—we can harness the human race's strength, coordinate attacks from within and without, assault the Devil Race on multiple fronts, and sap their power!"

This suggestion sparked gleaming eyes all around; it was indeed a brilliant scheme.

"One issue remains: the humans are far too feeble; urging them against the Devil Race equates to suicide."

To tackle this, after deliberations, they chose to bestow cultivation methods upon the realm's humans!

Regarding potential betrayal post-empowerment and Devil Race overthrow—attacking the Li Clan and driving them out of the Primordial Beast Realm—

The Li Clan had a counter ready: they wove a deadly weakness right into the cultivation methods!

Striking that critical point would plunge their mana into turmoil, forever barring mana usage.

Furthermore, fresh to cultivation methods, rapid ascent to lofty realms was impossible—save for a heaven-defying prodigy blessed by the Heavenly Dao.

Even then, the Li Clan wouldn't fret, as the techniques topped out at Human Immortality Realm.

Once the Li family concluded discussions, made full preparations, and watched the gorged Devil Beasts leave, they seized a clear moment to secretly connect with the Primordial Beast Realm's humans.

"Who are you?" A band of rugged, primitive humans eyed the abrupt arrivals—who looked just like them—with wary gazes.

Physical likeness aside, they swiftly pegged the Li family members as foreigners.

"We're from another world, not this realm's natives. We share your human blood. Witnessing your subjugation by the Devil Race fills us with outrage, but our forces are too few and weak to liberate you. The best we offer is the path to self-rescue."

Li Xiuting revealed their origins candidly and voiced their intent plainly.

Now, it rested on these realm humans' deliberations.

"What do you seek in return, or what's your aim?"

"The Devil Race's dominance blocks us from cultivation resources." Here, Li Xiuting held back the full truth without outright lying, simply masking their deeper motives.

"Many thanks!"

The foremost humans mulled it over shortly before embracing this 'generosity.'

Evidently, these realm humans harbored distrust, yet coveted the cultivation methods intensely.

They knew full well: this chance could decide if their race withered away or rose to glory!

The Li family bequeathed multiple cultivation techniques; while they cultivated the "Wanling Scripture" or "Earth Spirit Dao Record," their scripture hall brimmed with past-studied arts.

They selected a few standard Human Immortal-level techniques, adding entry insights to speed their start.

They also included offensive, defensive, and auxiliary spells, plus more than ten jade slips, all passed to the realm humans.

"Proceed with utmost caution—without real power, avoid rash moves, or the Devil Race might detect you prematurely and doom your entire kind." Li Xiuting cautioned before leading his clansmen away stealthily.

Further Primordial Beast Realm exploration wasn't planned; they aimed to return home and relay their choices and steps.

They'd acted sans prior consent, skirting clan protocols, but valid justifications existed, and the clan would comprehend.

And so it proved: hearing their account, Li Debo showed no ire, instead vocally applauding their initiative.
