Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1810 - 1374: Awaiting Cultivation

Sensing that a significant event must have occurred within the Void to trigger such a violent Chaotic Storm, Li Zhirui considered investigating. However, he lacked both the spare energy and the time required for such an endeavor.

He was unwilling to jeopardize his comprehension by wandering the vast Void for an extended period, searching for a cause that might prove non-existent.

Consequently, he performed a quick sweep of the area to ensure the storm had fully dissipated before returning to his place of seclusion. After redeploying the Great Array, a shimmer of Spirit Light signaled his disappearance back into the Void.

With focused intent, Li Zhirui held his breath and poured his entire concentration into mastering the Methods. At the same time, he detached a fragment of his Spiritual Soul to maintain the Spirit Absorption Secret Technique, which allowed him to continuously take in and refine Chaos Spiritual Energy.

Having spent many years contemplating how to achieve the Chaos God Demon Dao Body, he had successfully identified two distinct evolutionary paths.

The first path treats the physical form as a furnace and the Spiritual Soul as the Pill. By using Chaotic Spiritual Energy as fuel, one merges their Mana, Cultivation, Realm, Foundation, and Laws. This process causes the Spiritual Soul to transform, condensing from nothingness back into a Chaos Dao Embryo, which eventually matures into a Taoist Body through the balancing of Yin and Yang.

The second path utilizes the Chaos itself as the furnace while treating the physical body as the Pill, fueled exclusively by Chaotic Spiritual Energy. This method triggers a total evolution of the being, forging them directly into a Chaos God Demon Dao Body through the intense tempering of Chaotic Spiritual Energy.

While neither path is inherently superior, the difference in their difficulty is undeniable.

Although the first method is simpler to initiate, the resulting Daoist Embryo is exceptionally delicate. Once it successfully hatches, every aspect of the cultivator—aside from the "true self"—has been consumed as fuel for the transformation.

Essentially, if he chose this route to obtain the Chaos God Demon Dao Body, he would be forced to restart his entire journey from the Individual Immortal Realm!

The second method is far more challenging to begin, yet it does not require the "burning" of one’s entire essence. Consequently, the new form is not fragile, and there is no loss of power. Upon successful completion, his current level of Cultivation would remain fully intact.

Naturally, Li Zhirui favored this second approach. Its success would grant him the ability to roam the Void without needing external protection.

However, should that path fail, the first remained a viable alternative.

Thanks to his Personal Space, he possessed a sanctuary where he could instantly evade any threat, allowing him to recover his strength before returning to the Void to continue his work.

At present, he was refining the technique to transform his Spiritual Soul and physical body simultaneously. The moment he was certain the method was perfect, he would commence his cultivation!

...

Elsewhere in the far reaches of the Void, Li Zhixuan was fleeing for her life, her body riddled with injuries.

Hot on her heels was a colossal bird covered in gray plumage. Each stroke of its massive wings generated violent gales that scattered the local Chaotic Spiritual Energy.

Despite its immense bulk, the creature moved with startling speed. Its talons, shimmering with a freezing metallic luster, were aimed squarely at Li Zhixuan’s vitals, ready to tear through her the moment she fell within reach.

"Slash!"

Realizing her wounds made outrunning the swift predator impossible, she knew she had to take a stand. With sudden resolve, Li Zhixuan spun around and swung, releasing a fierce wave of Sword Qi.

Screech——

Detecting a lethal threat, the bird halted its charge abruptly. It flooded its claws with Mana and struck out aggressively against the incoming Sword Qi.

A loud clang echoed as if the Sword Qi had struck Fine Gold. While the talons remained attached, the strike carved deep gashes into them.

The bird let out a piercing cry, its eyes burning with a murderous fury as if it wanted to swallow her whole.

"Since you refuse to let me go, I’ll cut you down first before leaving!" Grasping her Mysterious Sword, Li Zhixuan circulated her Mana and unleashed a barrage of soaring Sword Qi.

Her string of bad luck had actually started when she was caught in that massive storm earlier. Though she had been swallowed by the gale, she had fought desperately to survive.

She was fortunate to have only been hit by the storm's outer edges, which allowed her to survive, though she was left in a battered and weakened state.

Yet, before she could even recover, this bird had launched a relentless assault, determined to end her life.

Initially, she chose to flee, hoping her injuries wouldn't hinder an escape, but the creature proved to be an unwavering pursuer.

If it would not cease its hunt, then a final struggle was unavoidable—a fight to the death!

Without warning!

Several sharp arcs of Sword Qi sliced through the air before the bird could respond, biting deep into its back and talons.

Squawk——

Feathers erupted into the air as deep sword wounds tore through its hide. The bird screeched in agony, its movements becoming stiff as it feared that flapping its wings too hard would only worsen the pain of its gashed flesh.

Sensing the true extent of Li Zhixuan’s power, the bird’s eyes filled with sudden terror. Its killing intent vanished, replaced by a desperate urge to fly away.

"Trying to escape?!"

Determined to pull the problem up by its roots, she had no intention of letting her predator survive!
