Chapter 197 Family
Time flies, and it's only a few days later in a blink of an eye.
On this day, Li Zhirui opened his eyes, and after using his spiritual consciousness to explore the situation inside his body, he couldn't help but feel bitter.
The meridians were damaged, and in severe cases they were crumbling and almost broken; the soul also became sluggish, and the sea of consciousness that was originally sparkling with light has now become lifeless.
"At least he survived." Li Zhirui comforted him.
In fact, he was able to escape from the three ghosts not only because of the other party's contempt and disdain, but also because Li Zhirui was so cruel to him that he actually gave up all the magic weapons in his hands.
grumble!
Phew!
Hearing Li Zhirui's voice, Daqing and Xiaoqing looked over quickly and asked about his injury.
"It's okay, just take a good rest for a while." Li Zhirui didn't want them to worry, so he told a white lie.
grumble!
Obviously Daqing didn't quite believe what he said, and kept urging him to retreat to treat his injuries quickly to prevent them from getting worse.
"I know, you should not carry it with you to practice during this period." After saying that, Li Zhirui did not get up and sat cross-legged. After swallowing two elixirs for healing meridians, he began to slowly breathe out the spiritual energy around him.
It only took three or four months to treat the few meridians that were about to break. Fortunately, the injuries to the subsequent meridians were not that serious and could be cured in another month or two.
However, the meridians at this time are very fragile, so you cannot use too much magic power, otherwise it is likely to be damaged again.
As for Shenhun's injury, because Li Zhirui didn't have that much time, he could only take time to treat it occasionally. As a result, the injury has not improved much now. At most, it will no longer get worse.
He had previously estimated the time it would take for all injuries to heal, and it would take at least half a year.
But this kind of thing cannot be done as quickly as he wants, he can only do it slowly.
——
But in the secret realm, with the massive investment of manpower and resources in Yinfeng Cave, more and more ghosts died at the hands of demon cultivators, and this eventually alarmed the half-step third-level ghost.
However, Yinfengdong knew about this a long time ago and was well prepared to deal with him. It had been waiting for him to appear.
However, there were not many demon cultivators who had the spiritual objects to deal with him, so after he appeared, a large number of demon cultivators still died in the army of ghosts led by him.
However, his luck was not very good. Not long after, he met a direct disciple of Yinfeng Cave, and in his hands, he happened to have the spiritual object to deal with the Yinhun King.
After a fierce battle, Yinhun was still the one who had the upper hand and killed and devoured the demon cultivator. However, he also suffered some injuries. After all, the power of the third-level talisman was not small.
He wanted to return to the cave to cultivate, but his wish failed. He met another direct descendant. This time, not only did he not kill him, but his injuries became more and more serious.
More importantly, he didn't know that the demon cultivator had planted a mark on himself!
The demon cultivator immediately contacted his fellow sect members nearby and wanted to join forces to kill the ghost king. As long as he was eliminated, the secret realm would no longer be a threat, and as the leader, his status in the sect would rise again.
The Yin Soul King, surrounded by several foundation-building demon cultivators, had already died.
Soon after, the secret realm was occupied by the Yinfeng Cave, and there were not many ghosts left in the huge number of Yinfeng Cave.
——
But he said it was thousands of miles away on Darong Island.
"How are you? Are you okay?" Li Shilian asked anxiously.
Li Zhiyue shook his head slightly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Uncle Lian, everyone has their own decisions about life, old age, illness and death. Don't be too sad." Li Shiren advised.
The person they were talking about was a certain elder from the previous term.
The reason why Li Shilian was so sad was not only because one of his familiar clan members was gone, but also because it reminded him that the remaining old people in the family did not have long life left.
"I know, I just thought of something." Li Shilian's voice revealed a bitterness.
Li Shiqing is looking for suitable islands for relocation and continues to expand the area of Darong Island.
Although the current area of Darong Island can accommodate hundreds of thousands of mortals, the current distance is not even half of the limit.
But expanding the island area and integrating Darong Island and Sequoia Island is a basic measure that the Li family will never waver in. After all, they have to consider their future descendants, right?
For this reason, Li Shilian also learned the magic power of moving the island, and the two of them took turns to use it. If Li Zhirui came back now, he would definitely be surprised to see the different Darong Island.
Perhaps it was the death of the old monk that made many older monks feel emotional and sad, and their health suddenly became worse.
Looking at it like this, they probably only have a year or two left to live.
"It's been more than two years since Zhirui went out for training, right? I don't know when he will come back." And whether he has broken through the bottleneck and is expected to break through the golden elixir in a short time. Li Shilian only imagined this last sentence in his mind and did not say it out loud.
Regarding the fact that Li Zhirui was about to break through the golden elixir, only Li Shiqing and Li Shilian in the entire family knew.
Because this matter is of great importance and involves Li Zhirui, a 'genius' monk who has been cultivating elixirs for a hundred years, what if he arouses Yuan Mingzong's murderous intention and wants to kill him in advance?
And once Li Zhirui succeeds in breaking through, the Li family's strength will be equal to that of Yuan Mingzong, forming a true equal relationship, and even threatening Yuan Mingzong's status. How can it remain indifferent?
"Speaking of which, Zhirui's cultivation has improved so quickly. In addition to having a large amount of resources to supplement, I'm afraid it is also related to his frequent training outside. The same is true for that little girl like Zhixuan." Li Shiren said with a smile.
When he said this, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes, because he was currently limited by a bottleneck and had been stuck in the middle stage of foundation building, with no progress.
"Perhaps you should go out for a walk and look for opportunities to break through. Besides, with the current situation of the family, there is nothing you can do if you stay." Li Shilian said.
Because Li Zhirui had refined many Foundation-Building Pills, and some monks twice as young had grown up, many people borrowed a contribution from their families and exchanged them for the Foundation-Building Pills.
Most of these people have succeeded in breaking through, and only a few have failed, so the number of foundation-building monks in the Li family now reaches double digits!
Borrowing contribution points from the family to exchange for foundation-building pills is a support measure of the Li family with very strict settings.
For example, you can borrow up to 70%, and the remaining 30% needs to be figured out by yourself, the cultivation level must be perfect, and it must be inspected by a dedicated person, etc.
The reason why we came up with this method is that there is no other way. The purpose of the Foundation Establishment Pill is that it cannot be too cheap. However, the Li family's background is shallow, and many clan members cannot get much contribution value from their elders.
If we wait for them to gather their contribution points, they will not be too young. If they try to make a breakthrough at this time, their success rate will also decrease, which is not conducive to the development of the family.
