Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2059 1498: Ancient Lotus (Part 2)
Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
A lotus seed roughly an inch across, its exterior inscribed with arcane motifs, radiating a timeless Dao Rhyme!
Indeed! This very lotus seed marked the fated opportunity Li Zhirui had detected.
Spotting the lotus seed, he at once realized why his Spirit Sense had stirred.
Lotuses rise pure from the muck, and for that reason, lotus-related Spiritual Objects typically possess cleansing properties, differing in potency.
Such as the Bai Lian that Li Zhirui luckily nurtured himself, the supreme example among them.
This seemingly ancient lotus seed likewise harbors purification traits—and what's more, a Purification Principle Li Zhirui has never encountered, far less comprehended!
Truth be told, Li Zhirui had successively obtained numerous rare lotus seeds, like the Green Lotus he chanced upon in Chaos Commerce, which granted him the Green Lotus Dao Body and elevated his innate potential.
Furthermore, from the Phoenix Clan's treasure vault, he secured the Ten Thousand Moisture Bright Light Xuan Lotus, offering two mighty benefits: refining the lotus bloom strengthens the physique and enhances aptitude.
Refining its seed expands the Sea of Consciousness and bolsters the Spiritual Soul.
Back then, he planned to shift to the Chaos Dao Body cultivation post-transcendence, where treasures like the Mystic Lotus served as vital supports, so he chose not to consume it.
With this latest Ancient Lotus Seed added to his Bai Lian and others, Li Zhirui now held four unique, perfectly synergistic, and immensely valuable lotus seeds!
'I wonder what Chaos Dao Body I'll forge by fusing these four lotus seeds.' Palming the Ancient Lotus Seed into storage, he felt a surge of eager anticipation.
This intensified as a legend from his prior life resurfaced—Pangu, the Creator God who rent primordial chaos and forged heavens and earth!
Of course, Li Zhirui lacked the hubris to fancy himself a peer to that supreme entity, yet even claiming a mere ten-thousandth of such might would vindicate his grueling derivation of the Chaos God Demon Dao Body method!
...
"Stop!"
Just as the Spirit Boat readied to depart anew, a thunderous cry exploded from ahead, with several mere Individual Immortal Realm cultivators barring the route.
"Did you see a ragged cultivator escape earlier? Which direction did he flee?!" One of them barked arrogantly.
This idiot was begging for death, utterly oblivious—not sensing the Human Immortal presence, nor spotting the Li family emblem.
The former might stem from the clansman concealing his aura, hiding his power; the latter revealed his limited insight and lowly background.
After all, any faction with real heritage would memorize major powers to avoid rashly provoking disaster upon their own.
"Don't know." The lead clansman shot back icily.
Facing two such interruptions in a row, his patience had worn thin. Without the Elder overseeing, he would have long slain these pests.
"Move aside!"
"Do you know who we are? How dare you talk so brazenly! Hand over the Spirit Boat, and we might let you live."
"Courting death!" Fury exploded in the clansman; he unleashed a lethal strike first—a brilliant golden ray slashed out, endangering their lives instantly.
Stunned by the savage attack, the cultivators never dreamed they faced a Human Immortal. Desperately resisting, they barely survived at great cost.
"We're from White Rock Mountain's Liu Family; a Human Immortal Clan Elder is coming soon…"
Realizing defeat, they blurted their backing to scare off the foe and beg mercy.
"White Rock Mountain?"
Seeing the attacker pause, they eased up, believing their family name had daunted him—until he added, "Never heard of it."
A golden flash streaked by, shattering their Dantian.
Drained of Mana, their vigorous forms withered rapidly, decayed, and collapsed into death.
Regarding the Human Immortal Elder they boasted of, he ignored it entirely, guiding the Spirit Boat toward Mount Wanxian.
Soon after their leave, a Human Immortal Cultivator arrived on scene.
However, Li Zhirui had wiped all traces; no average Human Immortal could pierce the veil to locate the vanished clansmen.
Naturally, he stood no chance of unraveling the events or truth.
...
Having cleared these trivial obstacles, the Spirit Boat at last soared off unhindered.
"This lecture ends here. Reflect on your insights and harvests for a while."
With those words, Li Zhirui vanished from view.
Securing the Ancient Lotus Seed had inspired him; he needed to verify if his conceived method could work.
His clansmen, clueless to the reason, thought the recent skirmish soured his mood, halting the lesson—and their rage boiled over.
Pity those culprits were already slain; no outlet remained for their wrath.
In his chamber, Li Zhirui remained oblivious to their minds, and even aware, he wouldn't deign to explain.
His priority lay in probing the sudden inspiration from his mind and testing its viability.
This notion drew from past-life recollections—the mighty Creator God Pangu, opener of primordial chaos!
Born from a Thirty-sixth Grade lotus, that deity prompted Li Zhirui to wonder: could he replicate it—using 'lotus' as womb, his body as 'seed,' gestating to form his Chaos God Demon Dao Body?
His fresh scheme blended the bodily perfection of his prior physical path with the swift potency of the Chaos Technique.
Still, true success demanded meticulous calculation.
And executing it later posed a massive challenge.
Yet difficulty never deterred Li Zhirui, nor prompted surrender. Idle now, perfecting this method pre-transcendence made perfect sense.
Should perfection elude him, he'd refine it further in The Void.
...
Two flowers bloom apart, each branch bears fruit.
The Void—a realm of utter disarray, devoid of peace.
Li Zhixuan traversed it with extreme wariness; she knew this turbulent space harbored unique Chaos creatures.
But today, she sought no conflict with them. Among The Void's scant social beings, their might was fearsome!
Even trusting her strength, she recognized overpowering their horde lay beyond her.
Thus, she hunted a singular, scarce Spiritual Object.
Growing solely amid these Chaos beings, it forced Li Zhixuan to quest personally.
"Zhi zhi zhi——"
While Li Zhixuan stealthily evaded detection, scouring for Spiritual Object signs, an odd noise rang close by.
This noise halted her cold, forbidding movement—any clash risked inciting a Chaos being frenzy, true peril.
Should that erupt, even Li Zhixuan might perish!
Luckily, the pair paused briefly then left, missing her entirely.
This sparked a bold idea in her. She trailed them silently, aiming to piggyback to the treasure.
At first, Li Zhixuan saw it as a mere gamble, yet astonishingly, it paid off!
Following their chaotic wanderings—freshly born, they capered and dawdled endlessly en route.
