Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Li Zhirui had a Personal Space, allowing him to retreat into it at any moment of danger, but the family did not have such a life-saving sanctuary.

If they were targeted, how could the family respond? Could they possibly abandon Shanhai State and rebuild the family elsewhere? This idea was entirely unrealistic, after all, the Li family was no longer the destitute, rootless family it once was.

Thus, after emerging from seclusion, Li Zhirui shook his head and refused Li Guangjie's inquiry, not planning to get involved.

But many times, even if you don't want to, you can't avoid it!

Because of one matter, Li Zhirui had no choice but to take a trip.

On this particular day, while pondering a Pill Recipe, Li Zhirui suddenly burst into a strong premonition, with his Spirit Sense constantly pulsing, alerting him that this was an incomparably crucial opportunity that he absolutely could not miss!

Most importantly, even his long-accompanied space began to tremble slightly at this moment, as if it had developed Spiritual Intelligence, urging him to act quickly.

At that time, Li Zhirui had not realized that this opportunity was related to the relic discovered by the Cave Abyss Sect. He only mentioned to Li Guangjie that he was going out to seek an opportunity, not knowing when he would return, and then quietly left Mount Wanxian.

However, as he followed his intuition, heading westward, the direction consistently pointed to the location of the relic, only then did he realize something was wrong.

Finally, Li Zhirui stopped near the relic, deeply conflicted in his heart. On one side was an opportunity affecting his own path to The Great Tao, and on the other, the safety of the family. He truly did not know how to decide.

Seeing that the relic had not yet been opened, he turned back to the family.

"Ancestor Rui, didn't you say you were going out to seek an opportunity? Why have you returned after merely two hours? Could it be that you've already obtained the opportunity, or is it that the opportunity is somewhat tricky and requires the family's assistance?" Li Guangjie, busy with affairs, looked up and saw the visitor was Li Zhirui, exclaiming in some surprise.

"The opportunity I spoke of lies within that relic, so I'm somewhat indecisive."

To be honest, in matters of cultivation, Li Zhirui rarely hesitated or delayed as he did now.

Because for him, the path of The Great Tao was the most important!

But he didn't cultivate the Heartless Path, and could not act coldly and heartlessly, harming tens of thousands of family members for his own benefit.

"That opportunity must be extremely important to Ancestor Rui, otherwise you wouldn't be so conflicted. But in that case, why not take a risk?"

Li Guangjie was straightforward, smiling, "Usually it's Ancestor Rui who protects the family, worried for the family's safety, but after all these years, the family is no longer the fragile sapling it once was."

"We may not withstand great storms, but we have a certain strength now, not as frail as before, so Ancestor Rui should go ahead without worrying about the family's safety."

"Besides, if you obtain some treasure from the relic, greatly benefiting your own strength, it would also be a great boon for the family."

Though in the Human Immortal families, only Li Zhirui held the fort for the Li family, in the Individual Immortal forces, the Li family was no longer weak.

Under the protection of unwritten rules, at worst they could just abandon some less important territories in Shanhai State, retaining only the core areas to endure some rough times.

They had experienced this before, it was not a big deal.

Listening to Li Guangjie's words, it was impossible for Li Zhirui not to feel a twinge in his heart, but it was not enough to bring him to tears.

"Alright! Since the Clan Leader is not worried about the family's safety, then I'm even less concerned! This time at the relic, I will surely seize a precious treasure and return victorious!"

Li Guangjie's smile widened, saying, "Then let me wish you, Ancestor Rui, a triumphant success, your wishes fulfilled, and a safe return."

Then he asked, "Shall the family arrange for some members to accompany you into the relic? It could be considered a form of assistance."

"No need, too many people would be rather disadvantageous."

Li Zhirui unhesitatingly refused. By himself, he need not worry too much; if danger arose, he could retreat into his space to avoid it, but with family members accompanying, it would be inconvenient.

"The Formation outside the relic will soon be broken, I must set off immediately. The family's matters are entrusted to you now, if any problem arises that even Da Qing and the others can't solve, you can use Mana to activate this Laurel Leaf."

Before leaving, Li Zhirui handed Li Guangjie an emergency means to contact Li Chengshuo.

"This is too precious..."

Li Guangjie attempted to decline, but the Jade Box was pressed into his arms.

And Li Zhirui himself had already left the family's main hall, leaving a Jade Slip of his intentions with Da Qing and Xiaoqing, before transforming into a rainbow light and flying towards the relic.

"I wonder if the family will face a stern test in the future." Li Guangjie still hoped Li Zhirui could conceal his identity, to avoid burdening the entire family.

This was not an ill-intentioned thought, but rather a hopeful wish.

For in this way, he could keep his identity hidden and act more unrestrainedly.

And after Li Zhirui left Mount Wanxian, Da Qing only then realized he had gone to that relic which was drawing attention from all sides.

Yet there was no worry for him, the life-saving capabilities of the Personal Space were too strong, and utterly indefensible, impossible to control.

However, the competition within the relic must surely be intense, after all, once the news reached outsiders, it could no longer remain a secret.
