Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1804 - 1371: Cultivation Methods

"I hope your journey is successful and that you return with every goal achieved."

Li Zhirui offered his farewells to Jiang Fengwu shortly after Li Zhixuan had departed.

Her objective was much the same; she intended to travel in search of a breakthrough to the Heavenly Immortal Realm. However, her path was different. Rather than venturing into The Void, she planned to remain within the borders of the Primal Spirit Realm.

Following many years of evolution, the Primal Spirit Realm had completed its transition—the world had expanded, spiritual energy had grown more concentrated, and the laws of the universe had become more profound.

Because the heavens had already manifested numerous new array patterns, Jiang Fengwu did not find it necessary to follow Li Zhixuan into The Void.

Li Zhixuan’s primary motivation was to utilize life-and-death combat to shatter her bottlenecks. Such intensity was difficult to find in the Primal Spirit Realm, where suitable rivals were scarce and holding back was often necessary.

Consequently, Jiang Fengwu did not need to pack an abundance of immortal pills and spiritual resources. Furthermore, as an Array Master of the Earth Immortal Realm, she had little to fear unless a Heavenly Immortal personally intervened.

Whether it was a mere coincidence or a trend sparked by the two of them, a wave of departures followed. Li Xianxun, Li Yunran, Li Yunzhuang, Li Xiuqi, and various other clan members began leaving the family to seek out their own opportunities and adventures.

If not for the restriction that the Divine cannot stay away from their Divine Domain for long, Xiaoqing, Cang, Li Mingyao, and the others likely would have succumbed to their own wanderlust as well.

It was an unavoidable reality; they had chosen the Divine Path, whether by choice or necessity, and while they enjoyed immense benefits and authority, they also had to pay the required price.

"Jiu, if this persists, it seems Cang and I will be stuck below the Heavenly Immortal Realm forever." Xiaoqing approached Li Zhirui one day to vent his frustrations, hoping for a solution to their stalemate.

Their Divine Path origins were originally granted by the Heavenly Court, but through their own hard work, they eventually became ordained by the Heavenly Dao itself. In recent years, they had fully refined their divine positions, liberating themselves entirely from the Heavenly Court's influence.

Nevertheless, this shift had not raised the ceiling of their natural aptitude.

Even though the cultivation speed of the Divine is remarkably fast, aptitude remains a vital factor.

Yet, their aptitude was not measured in the same way as cultivators; instead, it was dictated by the divine positions and authorities they commanded.

They were further categorized into Innate Gods and Acquired Gods, with the former generally possessing superior potential.

Such distinctions were rarely discussed openly due to the suppression of the Heavenly Court.

If a divine position is minor and its associated powers are limited, the Divine will hit a ceiling that is far more difficult to shatter than a standard cultivation bottleneck.

For figures like Xiaoqing and Cang, who served as the Wind God and Water God of vast regions, their authorities were enough to reach the Earth Immortal Realm quickly, but further advancement seemed out of reach.

Listening to Xiaoqing’s troubles, Li Zhirui pondered for a moment before replying, "I understand your current predicament. Fixing it is not impossible."

"First, you must grow your divine position and authority. Your current roles are too narrow. While being a specialist is good, you should find ways to integrate related divine positions without losing your focus."

"Second, you could find methods to expand your Divine Domain to force your cultivation upward. Which path do you find more viable?"

Xiaoqing understood these concepts, but the execution was the problem that had stumped him and Cang for a long time.

"Do you have any specific ideas?" Li Zhirui asked when he noticed Xiaoqing's silence.

Xiaoqing shook his head and said, "No, Cang and I have weighed these options, but we don't know where to begin."

Regarding the expansion of the Divine Domain, the Sea Clan held the east, the Cave Abyss Sect occupied the south, and the north was bordered by the Ten Thousand Spirits Alliance and the Changli Mountain Range. To the west, there were no great powers, but the land—formerly the territory of the Devil Race—had been turned into a desolate wasteland by a brutal war.

It was once said that the Li family lived in a secluded corner where world events couldn't reach them, but now that same isolation was hindering their growth.

They had tried to expand their authority and divine positions before, but for some reason, they never succeeded.

They lacked the ease with which Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo had expanded their influence by ordaining the Twelve Sun Gods, the Twelve Month Time Gods, and the Twenty-four Solar Terms Gods.

"I suggest you try moving toward the Meteorological God or even Evil God aspects, such as becoming a Storm God or Rain God. Alternatively, you could try to align yourselves with the Human Dao," Li Zhirui advised.

"I see. Thank you, Jiu." Xiaoqing nodded in contemplation, leaving to discuss these new perspectives with Cang. Perhaps their chance for a breakthrough lay within those suggestions.

Once the cave mansion was quiet again, Li Zhirui felt no loneliness; he remained perfectly composed.

After spending so much time solving the problems of others, he felt it was finally time to prioritize himself.

One morning, without any fanfare or announcement, Li Zhirui stepped away from Mount Wanxian. No one knew his destination.

He simply left a storage treasure and a jade slip for the Clan Leader. In his message, he explained he was heading out for a period of travel and that there was no cause for alarm. He also left several Heavenly Immortal Rank spiritual objects to ensure the family could maintain their alliances with other powerful entities while he was away.
