Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2286 - 1612: Breaking Free
Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
Li Zhirui, during his confrontation with Jiang Bogang, did not forget to scatter Purification Lotus Seeds, aiming to purify this vast Land of Evil and obtain Merit here.
And he risked injury, continually entangling with the adversary, just to buy more growth time for the Purifying White Lotus.
At first, Jiang Bogang didn’t sense anything amiss, but as time went on, he realized that although the other side kept dodging, the Laws surged around him, and Spirit Light flashed occasionally, evidently performing some actions.
When he unintentionally looked behind him, he was surprised to see the originally empty Land of Evil now filled with pure, white Purifying White Lotus.
"What are these things?!"
Jiang Bogang instinctively frowned, an innate disgust appearing on his face.
"Sure enough, you cultivate the Purification Principle!"
Li Zhirui’s expression was calm. Now that the Purifying White Lotus had grown, rapidly purifying the evil filth of this land, he no longer needed to apply the Laws, just protect the White Lotus from harm.
In less than an hour, he could harvest the Merit from here, then find a way to escape.
"I will never let you succeed!" Jiang Bogang said through gritted teeth.
His reaction now was like being toyed with by a lowly ant he despised, his face grim and terrifying.
Then he stopped attacking Li Zhirui and turned to assault the endless Purifying White Lotus.
But how could Li Zhirui let him get away with it?!
Previously, he had been avoiding direct confrontation to focus on nurturing the Purifying White Lotus, but now that the Lotus was fully grown, he no longer had to worry.
The truth was, in terms of sheer strength, he was indeed not Jiang Bogang’s match, but he didn’t need to fight desperately; he only needed to thwart the opponent to prevent harm to the Purifying White Lotus.
And this was exactly what Li Zhirui excelled at!
Countless Spirit Lights descended, and in the next moment, numerous vines emerged from the ground, rapidly forming a wall, separating Jiang Bogang from the Land of Evil.
"Trying to stop me with this method? That underestimates me!" He snorted disdainfully, waved his sword, and released a Sword Qi, but the expected outcome did not occur.
The seemingly fragile vines were not cut by the Sword Qi, and didn’t suffer much damage, leaving only a small mark.
As one of Li Zhirui’s main means of offense, how could he not enhance the Vine Spirit Seed himself?
Using the most resilient Starlight Vine, which withstands Chaos erosion in The Void, he hybridized various High-level Vines.
Through the mysterious effects of his Personal Space, he spent countless Spirit Stones, eventually, hundreds of years ago, successfully cultivating two Profound Immortal Grade vine spirit seeds!
Of course, this was done by Qing Si with the Five Elements and various Devil Spirits; he only provided some theories and ideas.
During this, some Heavenly Immortal Rank or low-grade Spirit Seeds were also cultivated, but they exhibited outstanding effects in certain aspects and are being tried to develop into corresponding high-grade spirit seeds.
Among those two Profound Immortal Grade spirit seeds, one is the Chaos Star Vine deployed by Li Zhirui, with astonishing defense and robust tenacity.
While the previous Starlight Vine’s defense was like well-forged iron, Chaos Star Vine is refined steel after thousands of tempers!
Their defense strengths are vastly different, not within the same level.
And the other Profound Immortal Grade Spirit Vine was named Colorful Green Spirit Vine after Qing Si and the Five Elements’ discussion. Although its defense is rather basic, it possesses two profound and peculiar abilities.
One is extreme stealth; Li Zhirui specially tested and found that even with full exertion of his Divine Sense, he couldn’t detect its presence within a yard.
The other is special toxicity; the Five Elements’ poison, eternal and relentless, can even absorb the mana from the poisoned body, and ordinary means and detoxifying Pills not only fail to resolve it but increase the toxicity!
That means, once infected with the Colorful Green poison, it is difficult to neutralize.
Perhaps at first, it may not be fatal, but over time, it intensifies.
Regarding its growth potential, he hasn’t tested, thus unclear about it.
Li Zhirui plans to allocate some future time to study this unique toxicity, wondering if he could incorporate this characteristic into his Tao of Alchemy.
The defense of the Chaos Star Vine can be seen from this battle; even attacks from a Profound Immortal Rank Sword Cultivator cannot easily cut through.
This level of defense is already quite formidable.
If layers accumulate, it may withstand an attack from a Golden Immortal.
But as Jiang Bogang, the testing subject for the Chaos Star Vine, his expression naturally looked unsightly, feeling humiliated and enraged.
Previously dismissive of these vines, his own attack surprisingly couldn’t breach them or cause significant damage, looking like a severe slap in the face, leaving him undignified.
In an effort to restore his dignity, he immediately became serious and infused more mana into the sword.
With a swift stroke, a fierce Sword Qi slashed at the Chaos Star Vine.
Yet, despite the anger and five to sixty percent of his strength, it still couldn’t break through this vine wall, less than an inch thick yet seemingly sturdy as copper walls and iron bastions!
Resulting in such a situation made Jiang Bogang even more furious, but Li Zhirui was quite pleased, because through this test, he roughly knew the defensive strength of the Chaos Star Vine.
If nothing unexpected happens, without the opponent unleashing full power, they should not break this wall.
"Mere vines can’t block me?!"
After several unexpected scenarios, Jiang Bogang fell into obstinacy, focusing only slightly on Li Zhirui, concentrating instead on dealing with the gray-green walls.
Wave after wave of terrifying Sword Qi fiercely targeted the Chaos Star Vine, following the existing marks, relentlessly attacking its weakness, aiming to destroy them in this way.
And indeed, this strategy succeeded.
A wall formed by Chaos Star Vine collapsed under his persistent assault.
But the joy on Jiang Bogang’s face vanished instantly!
Because he found that behind this wall, there was another identical wall.
Only then did he suddenly recall that the biggest feature of Wood Element Cultivators is their rich mana and constant regeneration?
And their battle characteristics and advantages are hassle-free and enduring?
Thus, he shouldn’t waste energy and time on these dead objects, but should instead first resolve the Cultivator casting the spell!
