Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2155 - 1547: Departure_2

He produced a spiritual object from his robes, stating, "This is something I chanced upon in the Chaos. While it is not a purifying artifact, it was formed from the convergence of Water and Wood Laws. I believe it may offer some aid to your cultivation, Fellow Daoist."

Li Zhirui, understanding this was a gesture to settle karmic debts, accepted it without hesitation.

"However, before you depart, let us divide the spiritual items and techniques gathered by the cultivators of this realm during this period."

"Ah, I had completely overlooked that."

This distribution process concluded in a mere two hours.

"Let us depart, then." Li Zhirui gestured dismissively, his attitude exceedingly nonchalant.

Under Fu Chengguang's observation, Li Zhirui initially showed no signs of movement. Yet, once they were clear of Kong Mountain State, he shed all pretense, revealing his potent Outer Realm aura and emitting a radiant spiritual glow as he ascended into the heavens.

Rumble!

The serene sky above violently erupted with thunderous roars, and crackling lightning snaked through the clouds, seemingly targeting and repelling Li Zhirui.

"Who are those two? Why have they angered the heavenly punishment?!"

The dramatic display inevitably drew the attention of numerous cultivators, who gazed upwards, catching only fleeting glimpses of two figures streaking across their vision.

"Are those two not the invading outsiders? Why have they suddenly revealed themselves? Could they be intending to voluntarily exit the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm?"

"Who can say? But shouldn't we strike while they face heavenly punishment? Perhaps we can trap them here."

"You go ahead if you wish; I, for one, will not involve myself in such a perilous affair." The audacity of revealing themselves openly suggested a level of confidence in their power that deterred lesser cultivators. Engaging them might well spell doom.

However, not every cultivator possessed such prudent judgment. Some, blinded by avarice, charged forward impulsively, seeking to exploit the heavenly punishment to their advantage and attack Li Zhirui.

"Perish!"

One cultivator jeered, unleashing a formidable, meticulously crafted killing strike. Yet, before the attack could land, it was annihilated by a sudden flash of white light. This residual energy then surged towards the cultivator with inescapable speed, instantly extinguishing their life.

The chilling spectacle immediately brought a sobering halt to the ambitions of many onlookers.

Even under the oppressive Heavenly Dao of this realm, this individual's power remained terrifyingly immense, capable of dispatching a Human Immortal cultivator in an instant. His true might must surely be far greater. While vanquishing this invader might promise vast rewards, the immediate concern became self-preservation after such an aggressive act.

Consequently, many cultivators opted to avoid leading the charge, preferring instead to conceal themselves behind others during any engagement, thus ensuring a measure of personal safety.

Regrettably for them, having achieved his objective, Li Zhirui had no interest in further entanglements. He promptly increased his speed, accelerating towards the world's exterior.

Any karmic ties incurred within the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm were conveniently resolved during his departure.

The method was remarkably straightforward: he merely needed to cleanse a portion of the world's inherent corruption, and the karmic entanglement would naturally dissipate.

The pursuing cultivators remained relentless, seemingly unwilling to relinquish their quarry so easily.

However, upon reaching the realm's boundary membrane, they all abruptly halted, fear precluding any further advance.

"Heh!" Li Zhirui emitted a cold chuckle, utterly unfazed by their pursuit or their hesitation. He turned without a second thought and plunged into the vast Chaos, vanishing from sight in moments.

Though separated by tens of thousands of miles, Fu Chengguang seemed to vividly perceive the unfolding events, his eyes involuntarily welling with tears.

Aside from him, no other cultivator was aware that Li Zhirui had already departed from Kong Mountain State.

Furthermore, Fu Chengguang understood that Li Zhirui's actions were intended to draw the attention of this realm's inhabitants towards himself, leading them to mistakenly believe that both invaders had already exited the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm, thereby easing the pressure on him.

"My gratitude, Fellow Daoist."

Unable to offer his thanks in person, he could only voice them into the empty air.

Following this, Fu Chengguang turned and re-entered the Cave Mansion, intending to dedicate his time to comprehending the laws and to avoid lingering unnecessarily in this realm.

"I wonder when our family will dispatch someone to instigate the Heavenly Dao's consciousness and thus trigger a war between our two worlds."

Indeed!

Fu Chengguang was not content with merely covertly infiltrating the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm to study its laws; he desired far more.

To discover a Great Thousand World and facilitate its consumption by their own world would undoubtedly be an endeavor yielding immense merit.Thus, the formation he established to contact his family was made ready once he became stable at North Xuanshan, while he waited for a response from them. However, the vast distance between realms meant that the formation remained inactive to date, leaving him in patient anticipation. Perhaps Li Zhirui opted to depart early because he sensed this predicament. ... Meanwhile, on the other side, the Void remained enveloped in its perpetual, unchanging gray mist. Li Zhirui had only traveled forward for a short while before the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm vanished completely from view. Beyond the obscuring chaotic spiritual energy, the world possessed its own inherent protective mechanisms. If Fu Chengguang had not deliberately left a clone behind for tracking and identification, they would never have located the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm. "What shall I do next?" For a moment, Li Zhirui found himself without a clear direction, uncertain of what objective to pursue. Soon, however, an idea formed, and his primary objective now was, naturally, to further refine the Purification Principle he commanded. Although the perilous chaos was hardly an ideal location for seclusion, he had no alternative and intended to quickly master another facet of the Purification Principle shortly after exiting the Ten Thousand Rivers Realm. A defensive and concealing grand array, which materialized instantaneously, provided Li Zhirui with a conducive environment for his cultivation. Then, setting aside distracting thoughts, he commenced his contemplation of the laws. As the saying goes, grasping one profound method illuminates all others. The Purification Principle had always been the law Li Zhirui delved into, and despite encountering some novel concepts this time, they were not beyond his comprehension. Consequently, his current period of seclusion did not demand excessive time, spanning approximately only a few hundred years. At its conclusion, he awoke from his Dao comprehension, having grasped the aspects of cleansing inherent in the Purification Principle, which could be considered a more potent purification ability. Simultaneously, a new thought sparked in Li Zhirui's mind: could he perceive everything other than himself as mere superfluous or harmful impurities, and consequently, eliminate them?! If this notion could truly be actualized, he would wield a formidable ability governed by rules and concepts. Of course, achieving such a goal was far from simple. Furthermore, it remained merely a thought at this juncture, and the timeline for its practical realization was uncertain. In essence, Li Zhirui had no intention of pursuing this path at present, so he concluded his seclusion and began his journey through the Void. ... As flowers bloom in duality, each reveals a distinct branch. Within the Primal Spirit Realm, in Shanhai State, atop Mount Wanxian. "Qingxuan, are you preparing to venture into the Void for training?" Qingpeng inquired, a hint of envy coloring his tone. Qingxuan affirmed with a nod, responding, "Indeed, after years of preparation, it is time for me to venture out and explore." He had achieved Human Immortal status many years prior but had consistently remained with his clan, dedicating himself to enhancing his power without venturing forth. However, Qingxuan's current cultivation realm could no longer advance solely through diligent practice; he required broader experiences and a wider scope of knowledge. Moreover, given his non-human lineage, even with his Human Immortal cultivation, it was not entirely convenient for him to train within the confines of the Primal Spirit Realm, thus compelling him to choose the Void. "Do you think you might encounter Jiu in the Void?" "Unlikely." Although Qingxuan harbored a desire to meet Li Zhirui again, the probability of crossing paths in the immeasurable Void was exceedingly slim.
