Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2066 1502: Gathering Together

Li Zhirui gazed upon the handful of spiritual treasures held in his embrace. He understood that Earth Element had departed in haste, fearing his refusal. In truth, though, he harbored no such thoughts and merely stowed them away with serene composure.

All at once, boundless cosmic merit manifested between the heavens and earth. The very next instant, it morphed into a brilliant golden radiance, akin to a towering golden column plummeting from above and seamlessly integrating into Li Zhirui's form.

This magnificent display instantly drew the gaze of innumerable entities. Potent existences dispatched their divine senses from thousands of miles distant to probe the occurrence.

Little wonder they were intrigued; the sheer magnitude of this cosmic merit marked it as no ordinary event!

Yet abruptly, a yellowish glow emerged, forming a protective shield that repelled all peering eyes and intrusive scans from the onlookers.

"Earth Element Lady?!"

Those who had extended their divine senses abruptly recalled that the Netherworld fell under the domain of this elusive Great God.

"May I inquire, Lady, what event has transpired in the Netherworld?" A Heavenly Immortal queried with utmost deference.

Within her divine realm, none dared provoke or displease her even slightly, lest they face expulsion by the Lady—a mortifying fate.

"A mere byproduct of cultivation, scarcely worth noting." Earth Element Lady's aloof voice echoed throughout the region.

The assembly refused to accept this account, for such immense cosmic merit could hardly stem from simple cultivation as claimed.

Nevertheless, with Earth Element's declaration, whether convinced or not, they possessed no means to delve deeper into the Netherworld for answers.

Resigned, they retracted their efforts.

Meanwhile, the 'instigator' of this uproar, Li Zhirui, sat with eyes shut, absorbing the tremendous cosmic merit.

Combined with the remnants he had preserved before, it proved ample to resolve his karmic debts, fully severing his ties to the Primal Spirit Realm!

"At last, I'm free to depart the Primal Spirit Realm!" His eyes snapped open, a flash of ecstatic joy lighting his features.

"My deepest thanks, Lady, for your aid!"

Li Zhirui wasted no time pondering the recent disturbance; Earth Element had handled it, so he saw no need to interfere. He offered his sincere gratitude before departing the Netherworld forthwith.

Returning to his cave mansion, he promptly inspected the spiritual treasures bestowed by Earth Element Lady.

"This is…"

Earth Element Lady had presented him with four spiritual treasures altogether. The first, the invaluable Breath Soil, was placed by Li Zhirui into his spatial realm, where it fused with the existing Spirit Soil, elevating its quality.

The second, Earth Essence Essence, stood as another rare gem capable of boosting comprehension of the Earth Law and direct infusion into a Spirit Vein for enhancement.

The third was a lotus seed called Earth Heart Yellow Lotus, which could broaden the Dantian, fortify its resilience, and bolster the body's vigor.

While the prior two treasures brought Li Zhirui considerable satisfaction, this lotus seed filled him with profound elation.

Acquiring yet another lotus seed variety would propel his Lotus Containing Dao Method to new heights!

For Li Zhirui, who faced a prolonged sojourn in Void Chaos, a robust physique held paramount importance.

The final treasure was a jade slip inscribed with Earth Element's profound insights into the Earth Law and Reincarnation Law.

Though the jade slip's contents ranked as the most valuable, they paled in utility for Li Zhirui compared to the lotus seed.

He cultivated the Purification Principle, having attained an exceedingly deep mastery, rendering any shift in path unfeasible; he could merely draw minor inspiration from them.

These could remain for his clan, allowing Li Mingyao and kin to study them.

Li Zhirui slipped away unnoticed by any clan members, his return equally undetected.

He shunned public view, persisting in secluded cultivation within his cave mansion to finalize preparations for transcendence.

——

Two flowers bloom, each on its own branch.

After years away from the Primal Spirit Realm, honing her skills amid the void while delving into Chaos Array Patterns, Jiang Fengwu—now armed with deep realizations—chose to return. She intended a period of seclusion to consolidate her achievements.

Guided by a subtle divination stirring in her consciousness sea, she swiftly pinpointed the Primal Spirit Realm's location and embarked on her return voyage.

To her astonishment, Jiang Fengwu soon met a ferocious beast obstructing her route after departure.

Sensing the foe's aura, her mind steadied a touch; it wasn't far superior to her own. This savage beast fell squarely within her power to vanquish!

Jiang Fengwu's mastery of Chaos Array Patterns had advanced to the point where she could deploy multiple formations, making her worry even less.

A swift gesture from her hand sent array plates soaring outward, positioning themselves in various spots. In moments, a Thunder and Fire Chaos Array formed swiftly, catching the fierce beast off guard.

Rumble——

Once triggered, the array unleashed a mighty, fearsome barrage under Jiang Fengwu's complete control. Thunder crashed loudly while flames blazed fiercely, these dual devastating forces pounding the fierce beast relentlessly.

Aooo!

Though the fierce beast boasted a robust body, it couldn't endure the onslaught and let out endless pained roars, wildly striking everywhere to shatter the array.

Regrettably, its efforts proved futile; it inflicted minor harm on the formation, yet its wounds worsened dramatically.

Soon enough, the fierce beast grew frail and listless, teetering on the edge of demise.

Yet Jiang Fengwu stayed vigilant, persisting in powering the formation with nonstop thunder and fire barrages.

Seeing its trickery had failed to deceive her, the fierce beast unleashed a final, frenzied charge.

But too late it was!

As the fierce beast toppled with a heavy crash, immobilized, Jiang Fengwu promptly set to carving up the enormous corpse, extracting every valuable spiritual item.

Though the huge mass of flesh was too bulky to transport, she possessed a method: refining it via True Fire into blood and flesh essence!

Pausing not at all, Jiang Fengwu pressed onward with her return trip.

Her path held some unrest, yet no truly perilous threats arose, and after over a century of travel, she safely arrived back in the Primal Spirit Realm.

Right upon returning, Jiang Fengwu faced the backlog of Three Calamities and Nine Difficulties.

To her, with Array Tao insights now vastly deepened, such ordeals offered no danger. A single array sufficed for her to breeze through the calamity.

Passing cultivators nearby happened to behold this spectacle.

"That was amazing! If I had such power, I'd never have to worry about the Three Calamities and Nine Difficulties again."

"Indeed! Even if we only had a tenth of this senior's power, we could probably face the calamities more easily, right?"
