Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 1924 - 1431: Pending Revision
Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
"Who could have imagined the Li family's fortune turning out this favorable? Right on their debut venture into an Outer World, they stumbled upon a Middle Thousand World," Li Zhirui extended his Divine Sense to scan the nearby environment, a trace of astonishment gleaming in his gaze.
In a Middle Thousand World, the highest cultivation achievable reaches only the Human Immortal Realm, implying that the mightiest fighters here surpass just those freshly ascended Earth Immortals who haven't fully adjusted to their newfound power by a slim margin.
Even so, this situation places notable strain on the Li family.
After all, stepping into an Outer World brings heavy suppression to one's total capabilities, particularly with the influence of the Heavenly Dao Consciousness. Should the natives of this realm perceive an existential threat, the suppression might escalate, prompting all inhabitants to band together in a massive pursuit!
To firmly dominate the locals here, it falls to Li Zhirui, Li Zhixuan, and Li Mingyao—the trio of Heavenly Immortals—to step in personally.
Yet each bears their individual duties. Li Zhirui must retreat into closed-door cultivation to hasten his transcendence; Li Zhixuan's location remains a mystery at present, though she's likely headed into The Void for tempering, chasing breakthroughs for her growth.
Regarding Li Mingyao? He might hold the fort briefly, but as a Divine, staying away from home for extended times proves unfeasible.
For a figure like him, specifically a Divine Ground, the pulls from his Divine Domain weigh even heavier.
Naturally, the flip side offers bolstered might whenever he operates inside the Divine Domain.
Li Zhirui mulled it over briefly, a touch of disappointment stirring within. It looks like the Li family can't claim this realm anytime soon and will have to quietly harvest certain Spiritual Objects or techniques from it instead.
Don't assume a Middle Thousand World lags behind the Primal Spirit Realm in quality—such modest realms can still yield brilliant treasures!
Take, for example, the Li family's inherited art, the "Earth Spirit Tao Record," which came from a Middle Thousand World.
Li Zhirui isn't aiming for a cultivation technique or skill matching the "Earth Spirit Tao Record" in caliber. Something that stands out notably from Primal Spirit Realm norms would suffice.
At his present level, beyond advanced techniques, he craves fresh perspectives too.
In fact, those novel viewpoints could prove even more valuable to him at times!
It's vital to recognize that every world nurtures its unique culture, and grasping the core of this one's would bring immense gains to both Li Zhirui and the entire Li family.
"Hmm?"
Abruptly, he lifted his head toward a particular spot, where a distinctive energy radiated, its potency matching that of an Individual Immortal.
"Perfect timing—now that we've set foot in your noble territory, I ought to grasp this world's lay of the land. Let's kick things off by pulling some details from you." A relaxed grin crossed Li Zhirui's face as he soared toward the silhouette, his kin observing intently.
"You..."
The individual barely uttered a word before Li Zhirui's Divine Power ensnared him, rendering him utterly still.
"Do you realize who I am? How bold to assault me! Release me at once!" The captive detected peril, putting on a bold front that masked his inner fear.
Li Zhirui paid him no heed and swiftly deployed the Soul Searching Secret Technique, drawing a trove of details on this world straight from the man's Sea of Consciousness.
Known as Floating Light, this realm sees the Devil Race, Immortal Tao, and Demonic Tao locked in a three-way stalemate, their forces evenly matched and domains carved up fairly, with their present spot falling under the Immortal Tao's Wind Sound State.
The man originates from Wind Sound State's premier sect, Wind Sound Sect, serving as a True Disciple backed by a Human Immortal grandfather.
With that kind of support, it's unsurprising he opted for defiance over pleas when Li Zhirui seized him.
Beyond these basics, the search revealed plenty of risqué moments.
That stemmed from his pursuit of a Dual Cultivation Skill!
Though it ranked as a proper dual cultivation practice, not some vile Absorption technique, the deeds it entailed left little to the imagination, and such paths often blur the edges between righteousness and wickedness.
Moreover, swaths of the man's Sea of Consciousness lay shielded by seals, clearly guarding key Wind Sound Sect secrets.
Despite the Heavenly Dao of this realm curbing Li Zhirui's might, his discernment and cultivation stage remained intact, making those seals seem basic and rough to his eyes.
Breaking past them required scant effort on his part.
The standout revelation among them was the Dual Cultivation Skill he'd been honing. At first, Li Zhirui dismissed it; to him, dual cultivation simply meant balancing Yin and Yang, offering no real innovation.
Still, as the memories flooded into his own Sea of Consciousness during the probe, he couldn't avoid them.
Yet the skill's clever design and depth far outstripped what he'd anticipated!
This caught Li Zhirui's interest despite himself, prompting a thorough examination of the entire technique.
"Ha, who'd have thought I'd snag such a fine reward mere moments after stepping into the Floating Light Realm."
Shortly after, his eyes snapped open, and a quiet chuckle escaped him,
The sealed portions also held complementary Secret Techniques for the skill, plus the cultivation notes and realizations from Wind Sound Sect elders.
"Such a shame—this is plainly a pure Yin Yang Path technique, but they've twisted it into this tired take on dual cultivation."
From the man's recollections, Li Zhirui learned the technique dubbed "Yin Yang Joyful Bliss Scripture" had once been simply the "Yin Yang Scripture."
The original "Yin Yang Scripture" came incomplete, and some prodigy from a past era in the Wind Sound Sect took it upon himself to complete the art entirely.
