Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

After taking care of some trivial matters, Li Zhirui entered the cave and began to practice in seclusion. He was determined not to come out until he broke through to the late stage of fusion.

Before that, Li Zhirui put all his energy into engraving his understanding of the fusion state on a stone tablet, making it easier for Daqing and others to comprehend it, which could be considered as some help for them to break through the fusion.

"Brother Nine is about to break through to the late stage of fusion, but we are still stuck in the stage of refining emptiness. If we continue like this, the gap between us will become bigger and bigger!" At the end, Da Qing felt very powerless.

They have worked hard enough in cultivation over the years, but are stuck at the late stage of the Void Refining Stage, unable to make any progress. That bottleneck is like a solid wall, blocking them.

Xiaoqing, Xiaocang and others were also very melancholy. Their bloodlines had long ago found ways to be promoted to the seventh grade. They had also participated in the great battle with the sea clan, and even went out with the Li family to gain experience.

It can be said that all kinds of methods have been tried, but I just can’t take the last step!
"I hope that the stone tablet that Ninth Brother spent so much effort to build can bring us good news." Xiao Cang said in a deep voice, and then began to focus his mind, putting all his spiritual awareness into it, and concentrating on comprehending the Tao in it.

Seeing this, the other people stopped talking and closed their eyes to meditate.

Five years passed in a flash, spring went and autumn came.

Amu, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the stone tablet in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes, showed a happy expression on his face, and quietly left the place.

He gained a lot from the stone tablet!

Combined with the inheritance in his blood, Amu feels that he seems to have a chance to break through and achieve fusion!
Amu was the last of the five spirit beasts to be born and the last to sign a contract with Li Zhirui, but he unexpectedly took the lead at this time.

A few years later, the time Daqing and Asan opened their eyes was no more than a quarter of an hour.

If you look closely at their expressions, you'll find that although there's joy, there's more helplessness.

The two did not gain much from the stone tablet. Although it helped them break through the bottleneck, they only saw some possibilities and did not know how many years it would take to succeed.

But fortunately, both of them are people with strong faith in Taoism. They are not afraid of the long time, but they are afraid of losing hope.

You know, the lifespans of Daqing and Amu are longer than each other. Even though they are at the Void Refining Realm, they can live for more than 3,000 years, which is longer than that of ordinary monks who are transcending tribulation.

Therefore, they are not worried that the long time will affect their future practice.

As for Xiaoqing and Xiaocang, they sat in front of the stone tablet for decades. Finally, because they almost went insane, they were driven out by the backup plan left by Li Zhirui.

"It seems that you and I are the only ones who have gained nothing." Xiaoqing said bitterly when she saw that the other four cushions were empty.

"I plan to go to the deep sea to look for an opportunity to break through and merge." Xiao Cang was also very disappointed, but he thought of a second way at the first time.

In other words, this is actually what he has always wanted to do, but for various reasons, he has not been able to put it into action.

But Xiao Cang is unwilling to stop here, so he can only use dangerous methods to stimulate himself and break through the bottleneck.

"I'll go to the deep sea too!" Xiaoqing hesitated for a moment before making up her mind.

The main reason is that he is not like Xiao Cang who is a loner. He has a partner and children, so he needs to consider it.

Speaking of the only descendant of Xiaoqing and Fengpeng, Qingpeng! Not only did he perfectly inherit the blood of both his parents, but he also had a return of blood. He was born as a seventh-grade being, possessed extremely high intelligence, and had the talent to control wind and water.

It is a bit regrettable that the Li family has not produced any member with the Fengtian spiritual root in these years, so Xiaoqing and Fengpeng did not let Qingpeng sign a contract, but instead trained him as the Li family's guardian spirit beast.

However, compared with the Golden Eagle's contract, the content of the Qingpeng's contract is much more relaxed, and the two parties are in a more equal relationship.

Qing Peng still needs to fight for the Li family, but he will not die because of the Li family's demise. If the Li family really falls into this situation, then his contract will automatically end and he will become a free man from then on.

anyway!

Xiaoqing and Xiaocang both planned to go to the open sea for training, but they had no intention of acting together, because they planned to go through life and death trials, break through bottlenecks, and achieve the goal of breaking through and merging.

If we practice together, we may not be able to achieve results that satisfy them.

The two of them made sufficient preparations in the family, and then they set out for the distant sea one after another.

As a descendant of the dragon clan, Xiao Cang felt like a fish in water after entering the sea, and it seemed that his strength had improved a lot.

Moreover, after his contract with Li Zhirui was terminated, it was no longer possible to tell that Xiao Cang was a spiritual beast. The sea creatures would only think that he was a dragon from somewhere else, and very few of them took the initiative to attack him.

There was no other way, Xiao Cang could only take the initiative to provoke.

Roar!
"Damn dragon, you're looking for death!"

Xiao Cang found a sixth-order thousand-legged octopus, which was extremely powerful and could create huge waves in the nearby sea every time it took action.

Moreover, it also mastered some magical power of invisibility and hiding, which made Xiao Cang so miserable that he had to flee in a panic.

If the centipede octopus had not been worried about its territory being invaded by other sea creatures and looting the spiritual creatures it had worked so hard to cultivate, it would never have given up on hunting Xiao Cang.

"Hehe, I was too arrogant and underestimated the strength of these sea creatures." After escaping, Xiao Cang hid in a hidden cave to heal his wounds and reflect on his own problems.

If Xiao Cang hadn't underestimated the thousand-legged octopus, he wouldn't have been in such a mess.

After staying in the cave for half a month, Xiao Cang finally recovered and rushed towards the direction of the thousand-legged octopus without hesitation. He planned to deal with this sea creature before looking for his opponent.

Although Xiao Cang did not underestimate the enemy this time, he was still defeated in the end and escaped from his territory with serious injuries.

"If you dare to come again next time, I will kill you and skin you alive to vent my anger, even if it means losing some spiritual creatures!" the octopus roared angrily.

Xiao Cang, covered in wounds, fled back to the hidden cave and hurriedly took out the precious pill to heal his wounds.

This time the injury was much more serious. Even though he took a lot of precious pills, Xiao Cang took more than three months to recover.

"Why is that octopus monster so powerful?"

Xiao Cang frowned. He really didn't expect that the first opponent he chose would be so powerful. But if he didn't get rid of this octopus, he would still feel a little regretful even if he successfully broke through the bottleneck in the end.

So even though Xiao Cang knew that he was no match for the opponent, he still planned to deal with the octopus monster, but not now. He would wait until he had some experience and his strength improved before taking revenge.

Xiaoqing entered the open sea a little later, and compared to Xiaocang, it was more difficult for him to find a suitable opponent, as the sea creatures always took the initiative to attack.

However, because Xiaoqing is not a member of the sea creatures, there are many sixth-level sea creatures who will cause trouble for him, and he has almost never lacked opponents, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.

……

Jiang Fengwu, who was cultivating in Wanxian Mountain, heard the news that Li Zhirui had returned as soon as she came out of retreat. He also left her with his insights and experiences in cultivating the fusion realm.

"Is he in seclusion to strive for the late stage of fusion?"

Jiang Fengwu was silent for a while. She still had a long way to go before she could reach the middle stage of fusion, but Li Zhirui was about to break through to the late stage of fusion. Even if she could find many reasons for this, such as Li Zhirui's aptitude, or the fact that he broke through earlier, the gap between the two was widening, which was an indisputable fact.

"Ugh!"

Jiang Fengwu sighed, but quickly calmed down. She had her own path to go and there was no need to envy others.

With a cheap master who is beyond the reach of the gods, and Jiang Fengwu who inherited his legacy, he has enough confidence to ensure that he can become more than that, so there is no need to feel sorry for himself.

Not far away, Li Zhirui, who was absorbing spiritual energy in the cave, suddenly felt a mysterious airflow descending from the sky, but it did not disturb his practice.

After a while, Li Zhirui finished his practice and began to study what that thing was.

"Merit?"

Li Zhirui thought that this must be it. "I didn't expect that after so many years of absence, there would still be merits and virtues descending upon me."

This also means that the war is over.

"I don't know how many lives have died and become fertilizer for that farm." Li Zhirui sighed softly. Even though he didn't know the other party, he couldn't help feeling a sense of sadness when he thought about their whereabouts.

Shaking his head to clear these thoughts, Li Zhirui focused his mind again and continued to practice.

He did not have much time to reminisce about the past. Li Zhirui did not forget that he had escaped from the battlefield and was carrying a huge disaster on his back.

If it is leaked accidentally, not only will you suffer, but the entire family will also be implicated.

The best way to avoid this from happening is to have strong power!
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Li Chengsheng, who had been traveling for many years, had gained a lot, but he had never found the opportunity to take the last step.

This made Li Chengsheng impatient and he was no longer as cautious as before.

One day, he left a large immortal city, but soon found that there were several cultivators following him. It was obvious that his large-scale selling and purchasing of spiritual objects had attracted the attention of some cultivators.

"Stop sneaking around and just come out." Li Chengsheng shouted to the person behind him.

In an instant, three Void-Refining cultivators appeared, their magical powers already ready to be used, and they took action without any hesitation.

Li Chengsheng was not afraid at all. Although he had not been able to break through the bottleneck in these years, his strength had been sufficiently honed in one battle after another.

He is now much stronger than before.

This is also Li Chengsheng's confidence.

The strength displayed by the three people working together is indeed good, but the true sun fire mastered by Li Chengsheng is extremely lethal and it is difficult to extinguish if you accidentally touch it.

Therefore, a situation that might be very difficult for other monks can be easily solved by him.

"How is this possible? You, a cultivator of the Void Refining Realm, actually mastered the True Fire of the Sun!"

Li Chengsheng did not answer, but increased the intensity of his attack, intending to take care of the three people.

However, the three of them were not stupid. Knowing that they were no match for the opponent, they would not continue to fight, but would try to find a way to escape.

Unfortunately, Li Chengsheng was prepared. A ray of true fire from the sun blocked their way and forced two of them back. The remaining one was repelled by him personally.

"We are willing to offer some spiritual objects, and we only hope that fellow Taoist can let us go." Seeing that they could not escape, one of them directly begged for mercy.

Li Chengsheng did not respond, but just looked at the three people indifferently.

"Fellow Daoist, are you unwilling to let us go and are determined to fight us to the death?" the man asked angrily with a hint of threat.

Li Chengsheng said calmly: "If you want to do it, just do it. Now that your life is threatened, you want to beg for mercy and leave. How can such a good thing happen in this world?"

Li Chengsheng didn't care about their threats at all. He brought Ayang, Ali and Yangli with him on this training just to achieve the goal of fusion, and seldom asked them for help.

The three looked at each other and knew that they couldn't leave without taking out some good stuff, so they could only say helplessly: "More than a thousand miles east of here, there is a valley where a secret realm is about to be born."

In fact, they were on their way to the secret realm, but they happened to meet Li Chengsheng. Seeing that he was alone, they had evil intentions. Who knew that the other party's strength was so terrifying that he could even control the true fire of the sun!

Therefore, they are now regretting deeply. If they were not so greedy, how could they have ended up like this?
It was even more impossible to tell Li Chengsheng the news of the secret realm, otherwise he would make a powerful enemy for himself.

"Oh?"

Li Chengsheng's eyes lit up. A new secret realm was born, in which spiritual objects were the most abundant. Maybe he could find a spiritual object that could help him break through.

"As long as you are not lying, I will let you go."

Li Chengsheng placed some restrictions in their bodies and asked them to lead the way.

A journey of more than a thousand miles is nothing to a cultivator of the Void Refining Realm. The journey was completed in just a quarter of an hour.

"right here?"

Li Chengsheng frowned and looked around, but he didn't see the secret realm that they were talking about being revealed.

"No, we need to go a little further inside. The portal to the secret realm is in the valley behind this mountain."

Li Chengsheng motioned for them to lead the way, and soon they saw the portal that was slowly taking shape.

"It seems that I have come at the right time." Judging from the situation, the portal will be fully formed in one day. If I come a little later, I am afraid I will miss the secret realm.

Li Chengsheng nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand to lift the restrictions in the three people's bodies, and ignored them.

The three of them were reluctant to leave, and finally one of them pushed forward and said with an embarrassed look: "Fellow Daoist, can we join hands to explore this secret realm?"

The reason why they are willing to let go of bullying and hatred is, of course, because compared to interests, these things are not important.

A secret realm that has just appeared in the world probably contains a wealth of spiritual objects. If Li Chengsheng can be brought along, with the strength of the four of them, they cannot say that they are invincible in the secret realm, but at least unless it is an extremely rare treasure, other cultivators probably will not take action.

"No, I'm used to being alone." Li Chengsheng rejected their invitation without hesitation.

He was not so bold as to join forces with the monks who were fighting half an hour ago. (End of this chapter)
