Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 2222 - 1580: Acceptance

With Wansheng gone, Li Zhirui had no choice but to take on the responsibility of guiding the Scattered Immortal Realm disciples.

This undoubtedly reduced his cultivation time and made it impossible for him to retreat for long, uninterrupted periods.

Faced with this, he couldn’t find a suitable solution for the time being. After all, it was too irresponsible to directly leave these disciples to comprehend and experience the insights in the Scripture Pavilion on their own.

But for the disciples, Li Zhirui’s teachings brought them greater benefits, so they were naturally very pleased with this change.

Compared to him, Wansheng still had a considerable gap in realm, so many disciples hoped their Sect Leader could continue to instruct them.

Until decades later, when a change occurred.

One day, a severely injured cultivator fled to the outside of Ascension Mountain, and his appearance immediately drew Li Zhirui’s attention.

Because the aura emanating from him was unmistakably that of a Heavenly Immortal Cultivator!

In the next instant, Li Zhirui appeared directly in front of him, looking at him with a frown.

Without much thought, it was clear this person was involved in significant trouble!

Because within Mingzhou, a Heavenly Immortal Cultivator was a first-class existence, yet he fell into such a pathetic state, the individuals he provoked must be extraordinary.

"I beg the senior to save my life, and I promise to repay the senior’s kindness with servitude like an ox or horse in the future!" This person, seemingly aware of who stood before him, spoke while struggling to catch his breath.

Li Zhirui did not respond, or rather, his instinct was to decline this person’s request.

Given his long-standing reluctance to entangle himself with too much cause and effect, he should unhesitatingly refuse, choosing not to interfere.

But after these decades of needing to repeatedly interrupt his cultivation to give lectures, answer questions, and solve dilemmas for the disciples had changed his perspective.

After this experience, Li Zhirui particularly wanted someone to come and undertake all this for him!

And the person before him could well assume his responsibilities.

Although the cultivation of the Heavenly Immortal Realm was slightly inferior, it was more than adequate to teach these merely Scattered Immortal Realm disciples.

However, before that, he needed to clarify one thing.

"The people chasing you, or perhaps the forces you offended, do they include a Golden Immortal?"

If he had offended a Golden Immortal, Li Zhirui would not save the person at any cost, and might even throw him out to avoid implicating the Tongtian Sect.

"The ones chasing me are a Heavenly Immortal Family..."

If that’s the case, Li Zhirui was relieved.

But whether it was true or not, it would be known soon after, once the cultivators chasing the person arrived.

About half an hour later, several Spirit Lights flew in from a distance.

Initially, their speed was extremely rapid, but as they approached Ascension Mountain, it slowed considerably until they could only be described as jogging.

"Junior Jia Yujiang, Jia Yuwei, and Jia Yukang from Chaoyang Mountain’s Jia Family greet the senior."

The Jia Family was also a Mingzhou power; naturally, they had heard of the Tongtian Sect which had risen in fame in recent years, especially as the person before them hadn’t concealed his cultivation and power.

And this situation made the Jia Family’s three hearts sink, fearing their mission may face obstacles.

Sure enough! When Li Zhirui spoke, it confirmed their fears.

"This person doesn’t know where he offended the Jia Family. I’m here to apologize on his behalf. If anything was damaged, it will be compensated with double. Could the three young friends consider sparing him for my sake?"

Jia Yujiang’s face froze slightly, forcing a smile, he said, "Senior is unaware, this person is outrageously daring, destroying the Red Blood Dragon Ginseng our Jia Family cultivated painstakingly for a thousand years. If we don’t remove him, what face does our Jia Family have to stand in Mingzhou!"

Red Blood Dragon Ginseng is an extremely rare and demanding Heavenly Immortal Rank Spiritual Object. In its early growth, True Dragon Essence Blood is needed for it to sprout.

After a hundred years, more True Dragon Essence Blood is required for each century until after a thousand years, the Longzhi Mushroom matures.

But the effects of Red Blood Dragon Ginseng are also astonishing. Once refined, not only will it grant True Dragon bloodline, it will enhance aptitude, strengthen physical power, increase lifespan, and so on.

It can be said to comprehensively enhance oneself!

Li Zhirui didn’t need to ask whether the person’s words were true; seeing him bow his head silently without rebuttal confirmed everything.

Simultaneously, he was relieved.

Fortunately, it was just the destruction of a Spiritual Object and not the murder of a Jia Family member, so the situation wasn’t beyond redemption.

"Are you willing to forsake all your Spiritual Objects to save your own life?" He certainly wouldn’t take out any Spiritual Objects from his Storage Magical Treasure to make up for the mistakes made by this person.

Even if he could easily provide an item of similar value, there was no need as it wasn’t his doing.

Besides, Li Zhirui was just trying to find a Taoist Technique teacher for the disciples to guide their cultivation; Mingzhou offered more than just the Heavenly Immortal before him.

As long as he was willing to give up some Spiritual Objects, he could easily recruit several Human Immortal or Earth Immortal Cultivators from outside.

And had Li Zhirui not intervened, the person wouldn’t even have the chance to use his own Spiritual Objects to preserve his life!

"I am willing, thank you senior for saving my life!" The person also understood this logic, although reluctant, he discerned the importance and painfully withdrew his Divine Sense from the Storage Magical Treasure.

Li Zhirui wasn’t concerned with the person’s distressed expression, pulled the Storage Magical Treasure to him, and swept his Divine Sense through it, quickly estimating its approximate value.
