Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 447 - 453: Awakening

"Lady Xuan, can you take me with you for training?" Li Chengshuo's face was filled with longing and expectation.

Li Zhixuan's expression remained unchanged as she simply turned her gaze towards Jiang Fengwu beside her, but to tell the truth, she was rather unwilling.

There was no other reason, Li Chengshuo was only at Foundation Establishment, her strength far too lacking. Li Zhixuan's usual training partners were third-order Devil Beasts. If she were to take her along, it was very likely they would encounter danger.

Fortunately, Jiang Fengwu was also aware of this. She gave Li Chengshuo a stern look and said, "I no longer stop you from going out for training, but do not overstep your boundaries!"

She was inwardly troubled. She didn't know whom the young girl had learned from, always seeking thrills. Now she even wanted to go after third-order Devil Beasts. It was hard to tell whether to say she was bold as brass or simply ignorant of her mortality.

"I understand." No matter how reluctant she was inside, she dared not show even the slightest sign of it in front of Jiang Fengwu.

"Aunt Fengwu, if there's nothing else, I'll be heading back first," Li Zhixuan paused before adding, "In a few days, I plan to go out to hone my skills for a while. Shuo and Sheng can just continue practicing their swordsmanship; I'll check on it when I get back."

In order to enhance the fighting capabilities of the siblings Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo and to ensure they wouldn't encounter any mishaps while training outside, Jiang Fengwu had specially invited Li Zhixuan, who had the most abundant combat experience and immensely strong fighting power in their family, to be their teacher.

Especially in terms of combat experience—even Li Zhirui couldn't match her and had to admit defeat.

"If I remember correctly, you haven't finished refining your life-bound magic sword, have you? Is there such a hurry?" asked Jiang Fengwu, somewhat worried.

Li Zhixuan's life-bound magic sword was forged from the most solid and sharpest Geng Metal. Yet, many years had passed, and the magic sword had not yet taken complete form. Not to mention adding enchantments and the like, she hadn't even started!

"A sword is a tool for killing! I've sheathed it for so many years now; it's time to draw it out and let it see some blood, or I fear it might rust," explained Li Zhixuan lightly.

Li Chengshuo listened with a puzzled face, while Li Chengsheng understood but showed no reaction. In his view, since he was not a sword cultivator, such matters had nothing to do with him.

"You're right!" Something seemed to strike Jiang Fengwu, a trace of reminiscence gleaming in her eyes as she said, "Since you've made up your mind, then go do it, but be careful."

"Rest assured, Aunt Fengwu. I'll take my leave now!" After a few steps, Li Zhixuan suddenly stopped and said with an even tone, "Sister-in-law, you could also find some time to go out and see the beautiful and dazzling world."

With that, she walked away directly.

Jiang Fengwu's heart trembled violently, and her eyes brimmed with tears. Yes, back in the day, she was a widely renowned female cultivator. How had she fallen to this state?

Confined to an island, her whole day revolved around two kids...

Repetitive! Monotonous! Dull! Uninteresting!

"You're right, so many years have passed, and I don't know if there have been big changes in the outside world." The last sentence was filled with feelings of wistfulness and anticipation.

"Mom, can you take me with you?" Li Chengshuo's eyes swiveled as she shifted her target to Jiang Fengwu. Her own mother—how could she possibly refuse?

But Li Chengshuo was thinking too wishfully. Upon hearing this, Jiang Fengwu did not hesitate to refuse, "You two just stay on Wanxian Island obediently. If you want to gain experience, go to the Green Mountain Range or to the family's Devil Beast mountain range."

"I understand," Li Chengshuo said dejectedly.

The next day, Li Zhixuan left Wanxian Island. This time she chose to go to the Great Void Province. Compared to the Green Mountain Range, the Devil Race in the Great Void Province possessed even greater strength, more suitable for her to train and temper herself.

"Cough cough, after endless hardships and nearly losing half of my life, I finally got my hands on the Smelted Sinmetal!" Li Chenghuo, looking disheveled and with a weakened breath, had a face full of excitement.

Hadn't he chosen to venture out in order to find better Spirit Materials to refine a higher quality Life-bound Magic Treasure?

Many years had passed, and today, he finally had results!

The fourth-order Smelted Sinmetal, possessing both the sharpness of metal and the explosive force of flame, is a relatively rare Spirit Material because it exists only within magma.

To find this Spiritual Object, which suited him, Li Chenghuo had explored who knows how many volcanoes over these years. Some were not very dangerous, but others were fraught with peril at every turn.

The place where he this time found the Smelted Sinmetal was of the latter kind. There lived a group of Flame-loving Bats in that volcanic magma lake. Although they were only second-order, their number was at least over a thousand, blotting out the sky as they flew over, and they posed a great danger to Li Chenghuo.

Li Chenghuo paid a considerable price, to the extent that if he hadn't had several third-order Spirit Talismans on hand, his fate wouldn't just have been serious injury, but death in the Underworld.

Having survived this close call, Li Chenghuo now just wanted to heal and then return to Wanxian Island to focus on refining the Life-bound Magic Treasure he envisioned, after which he could stay with his clan.

While improving his Artifact Refining skills, he could also increase the clan's income and at the same time cultivate to enhance his own level of cultivation.

Although Li Chenghuo wasn't too confident about breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, the idea was still there; after all, who doesn't want to live longer and better?

——

A night passed uneventfully, and after completing his morning cultivation on the second day, Li Zhirui announced to Da Qing and the others that he was leaving the space as he needed to hurry back to Wanxian Island.

Not long after he left the space, Hugan and the other two members of the Devil Race started their official work.

Each of the Devil Beasts chose an uncultivated plot of land. With a simple spell cast, the earth in front of them began to churn, becoming loose and friable.

The more Mana that was poured in, the larger the area of land being cleared, making this farming method highly efficient—though it did consume a fair amount, especially since there were several hundred li of wasteland in the space. Even though they all were third-order Devil Beasts, it would still take a considerable amount of time to finish.

"Hm?"

Da Qing noticed Hugan's actions immediately, not for anything else but for how the land he was cultivating seemed particularly well-suited for planting Spiritual Objects.

After observing carefully for a moment, he understood why. It was because Hugan wasn't using Mana but the Divine Power of Mud-to-Stone.

Those who mastered either the Divine Power of "Turn Mud into Stone" or "Turn Stone into Mud" could learn the other in reverse.

That was the case for Hugan. He was extremely proficient in these two Divine Powers and could likely further improve upon them by constantly employing them to cultivate such a vast expanse of land, perhaps even reaching the peak of perfection.

"No wonder Jiu was willing to subdue these three Devil Beasts. It looks like each of them indeed has their own strengths," Da Qing remarked softly to himself.

The innate Divine Power of Hugan, Hu Mu's cleverness and intelligence, Hu Xuan's straightforward and hardworking nature—when combined, they were just the right match!
