Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

```

"Giant Spirit Poison Bee?" Li Shilian thought for a moment, then said, "If I'm not mistaken, although these spirit bees possess potent poison within their bodies, the spirit honey they produce can detoxify and also has the effect of nurturing and warming the meridians, right?"

"Zhirui, didn't you say that the queen of this bee nest has died? They should spontaneously cultivate a batch of female bees, among which a new queen will be selected. When the opportunity arises, bring out a few of the females, and cultivate several nests of Giant Spirit Poison Bees."

Li Shilian continued, "Giant Spirit Poison Bees have a strong territorial awareness. Retrieve all the Yellow Spirit Bees within the clan land, Spirit Medicine Mountain, and the East Mountain Spirit Field back to the Spirit Lake. Allow them to propagate near the Spirit Lake. After all, Yellow Spirit Bees are mild-mannered, and as long as there is enough nectar, they will not engage in fights."

Between second-grade spirit honey and first-grade, even a fool knows which to focus on cultivating.

Li Zhirui had no objections to Li Shilian's arrangements, for he was the clan member with the highest attainment in beast taming.

He also planned to secretly steal a female bee into his space, specifically to produce spirit honey for his alchemy use.

"The real show starts now!" Li Zhirui carefully stored away the jade pendant, then sent his divine sense into the storage ring. A brief scan and he began taking out the items inside.

Eighteen jade slips, two third-grade magic artifacts, five top-grade spirit stones, two hundred and forty-eight mid-grade spirit stones, roughly twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones, plus over a dozen bottles of spirit pills and over twenty bottles of spirit honey, as well as a few jade boxes.

"A third-grade lower-tier magical treasure, Qingyuan Sword, and a third-grade mid-tier magical treasure, Profound Cloud Umbrella; once my second uncle leaves seclusion, these will be just right for his use," Li Shiren said, most interested in magical artifacts. After roughly refining them and learning the names and tiers of the artifacts, he excitedly spoke.

A magical treasure refers to a magic artifact of third grade and above. Magic artifacts cannot be stored inside the body for nurturing, but magical treasures can, and through nurturing with mana, magical treasures are much more powerful than magic artifacts.

Li Zhirui nodded, took out two Spirit Sealing Talismans, and sealed the artifacts, as not using a magic artifact for a long time can damage its restrictions.

"Inside these jade boxes are all third-grade spiritual objects, a three-hundred-year-old Purple Cloud Ginseng, a Fire Spirit Pearl…"

Li Shiting held a jade box in each hand, lifted her right hand, and said, "This box contains a piece of magical instrument remnants, seemingly from a fourth-grade magical treasure."

The three of them looked over immediately, but unfortunately, their cultivation levels were too low. Apart from discerning that the item's restrictions were profound, they could not make anything else out and had to reseal it into the jade box again.

"The jade box on the left contains a Foundation Establishment spiritual object, Mysterious Fire Liquid."

Li Zhirui thought for a moment, then said, "This item can be stored in the treasury, for clan members to exchange using contribution value."

The three nodded, indeed a good chance to stimulate the clan members with this Foundation Establishment spiritual object.

"We must secure the spirit stones well. After my second brother's breakthrough, we can then start promoting the Spirit Vein of Da Rong Island," Li Shilian gestured for Li Zhirui to take back those mid and top-grade spirit stones.@@novelbin@@

"These spirit pills—I can only identify their grades, but the specifics are beyond me." Right now, Li Zhirui had just learnt to concoct Consolidating Yuan Pills, and the Li family didn't have a profound foundation in alchemy; how could he identify them?

"Next, let's see if these jade slips contain the Core Formation Comprehension and insights of that Golden Core cultivator."

The four eagerly dove into examining the jade slips, the scene instantly quieting down.

"Found it!" About half an hour later, Li Shiren shouted excitedly.

The other three immediately dropped the jade slips in their hands and scrambled to look at the one in his hands. Although they were all far from reaching the Golden Core Realm, they could tell that it indeed contained the comprehension and insights of a Golden Core cultivator.

In fact, in addition to the Core Formation Comprehension, there were also insights on Foundation Establishment, but their attention was entirely focused on the former.

"With this jade slip, my second brother's core formation will be even more assured!" Li Shilian was overjoyed, wished he could immediately knock on the doors of the rear hall and hand over the jade slip to Li Shiqing.

Li Zhirui suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Did you discover any valuable content from the Jade Slips?"

The few Jade Slips he had just checked contained accounts of the travels and experiences of a certain Golden Core cultivator. They weren't without value; they just weren't particularly precious.

"There's a 'Beekeeping Manual,' which records experiences in rearing various Spirit Bees," Li Shiting said. "There's also a Jade Slip that records two unclaimed Spirit Veins he discovered in Green Mountain State."

Considering this Golden Core cultivator's search for Spirit Veins and his recorded breakthrough experiences, it appeared he wanted to establish a power base; unfortunately, he perished along the way.

Li Zhirui's heart leaped with joy; he hadn't forgotten that space could enhance its spiritual energy and reduce the need for Spirit Stones when hastening the growth of Spiritual Medicine by absorbing Spirit Veins.

He immediately took the Jade Slip, noted down the locations of these two Spirit Veins, and planned to visit Green Mountain State first on future travels, looking for an opportunity to incorporate the two Spirit Veins into his space.

"I've found a Golden Core Realm Technique: Green Wood Longevity Technique," Li Shilian said.

This was one of the most common and mainstream cultivation techniques, aligned with four other techniques corresponding to the different elements. The majority of Loose Cultivators' methods were among these five elemental cultivation techniques.

The remaining Jade Slips mostly contained the cultivation notes of that Golden Core cultivator, including his insights into the 'Longevity Skill,' his understandings of beekeeping, and so on, which could enrich the family's heritage.

Then there was a collection of first and second-level spells and a few third-level Wood-attribute Spells.

By the time everyone had sorted everything into categories, it was already early the next morning.

Just as Li Zhirui was about to take his leave from the three Elders and go to rest for a while, the family's Jade Token at his waist suddenly lit up.

"Elder Shize has returned!" Li Zhirui found it strange; why would he come back at this time?

Logically, the news should have reached the Marketplace last night, and he should have rushed back to the family immediately to inform them.

Li Zhirui didn't think much of it; since Li Shize had returned, he could just ask him later to find out.

"Clan Leader, the Marketplace was abuzz yesterday afternoon with news of a terrifying zombie appearing in the ruins. I originally wanted to rush back to the family, but the Yuanming Sect sealed off the Marketplace, not allowing cultivators to enter or leave," said Li Shize, his expression showing no hint of panic, calmly speaking.

Today in the morning, the Yuanming Sect announced that the Golden Armor Corpse had been slain by the joint efforts of tens of Golden Core Cultivators from Shen Leishan and the Wood Spirit Sect."

Knowing that Li Zhirui and the two others had gone to explore the ruins, Li Shize guessed they would be aware of the Golden Armor Corpse, so as soon as the Marketplace opened, he flew back to Da Rong Island to ease everyone's worries.

"That quickly?" Li Zhirui was stunned. Although he had previously speculated Shen Leishan might take action, so little time had passed, and the Golden Armor Corpse was already exterminated!

"Phew!" Li Shilian let out a long sigh and said, "It's good it was destroyed; it's good it was destroyed. Now we do not need to consider relocating."

Li Shize was momentarily startled by the comment, but after thinking about it, it made sense; given the threat of the Golden Armor Corpse, their only option for survival would have been to relocate again.

"Elder Shize, you've worked hard. Rest on the island for a while and then return to the Marketplace," Li Zhirui said. "After all, the recent news has all been about the ruins."

Unless unexpected, the ruins have likely been scoured clean by Shen Leishan and the Wood Spirit Sect by now. Whatever they obtained, it's unrelated to the Li family, and besides, the family's own gains from this expedition were substantial.

"Alright." Li Shize, who had spent the previous night in worry, coupled with his advanced age, truly needed a good rest.
