Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

This cage is like the last straw that breaks the camel's back, bringing immense pressure to the Earth Immortal.

And at the first moment, he thought of whose handiwork the cage was.

"He's actually not dead?! And he had the audacity to hide nearby, waiting for us to be both seriously injured before delivering a fatal blow."

The Earth Immortal had to admit that he misjudged. He didn't expect that this small Human Immortal Cultivator would have so many tricks and such exceptional courage.

If he hadn't used this person at that time, but really asked for his cooperation, would he have captured the Demon Cultivator by now?

Thinking of this, a trace of regret involuntarily rose in the Earth Immortal's heart.

And Li Zhirui, who had been hiding in the shadows for several hours, finally didn't have to be as tense as before!

Looking at his masterpiece not far away, and his face turning pale from the excessive consumption of mana, he couldn't help but show a satisfied, triumphant smile.

He had waited so long, finally waiting for the two Earth Immortals to enter a true life-and-death duel, and a mutually deadly battle!

But now is not the time to rejoice.

Li Zhirui immediately swallowed a Rejuvenation Immortal Pill, seizing the opportunity to restore his mana. He aimed to seize the lives of at least one of the Earth Immortals!

"Hahahaha, truly heaven assists me, die for me!" The Demon Cultivator quickly caught up, laughing wildly as he launched a fatal strike towards him.

The Earth Immortal naturally would not easily resign to fate, and in order to survive, he began to fight desperately, hoping to hold on until the Demon Cultivator suffered a backlash.

But he overlooked Li Zhirui, who had turned from a piece on the board to a player!

Though he was merely a Human Immortal, in the current situation, he had the ability to sway the outcome.

Therefore, just after Li Zhirui refined the Immortal Pill, he intervened in the fight between the two, more often aiding the Demon Cultivator.

Because it was obvious to anyone with discerning eyes that the Demon Cultivator had almost no chance of surviving; the Fierce Ghost Yin Evil had already penetrated every aspect of his body.

However, in doing so, the Earth Immortal was at a disadvantage, and his injuries rapidly worsened.

"Young friend, we both come from the Immortal Tao, there is at least some bond of incense between us, why not join forces to solve this neither human nor ghostly monstrosity?"

During the pursuit and attack, the Earth Immortal shouted loudly, "As long as you agree, I can hand over the Enlightenment Profound Yin Immortal Fruit in my possession, and you can take the Yun Dao Xuan Yang Immortal Fruit in his hand."

"Sorry, given your previous use of me, I don't trust you now, senior." Li Zhirui said bluntly.

"It was indeed a moment of confusion on my part, sorry for that. How about this, I let you choose another Earth Immortal Level Spiritual Item as a compensation, how about that young friend?"

One could say that to survive, this lofty Earth Immortal had completely abandoned his dignity, apologizing humbly to a Human Immortal Cultivator, even offering a gift!

"No deal!"

Li Zhirui responded coldly, "As long as you fall senior, all those spiritual items in your hands will be mine. Given that, why would I enter into an unprofitable transaction with you?"

As he finished speaking, hundreds of ice shards shot out, blocking the Earth Immortal's retreat.

"Alright, alright, alright!"

The Earth Immortal barely fended off the Demon Cultivator's attack, seeming insane with madness in his eyes, he said in a hateful voice:

"To think that one day I would be humiliated by a mere Human Immortal. Even if it means death, I want you to know the prestige of an Earth Immortal cannot be trampled by such an ant as you!"

With that, he ignored the Demon Cultivator chasing him from behind, flying straight towards Li Zhirui's direction.

Yet, he showed no fear, no intention of evasion, as if planning to take the Earth Immortal's attack head-on.

Crack!

An attack of considerable power landed on Li Zhirui, yet there was no scene of flesh and blood flying, only the sound of glass shattering.

The body he revealed all along was just an illusory projection.

"Ahhh! How dare you deceive me!"

The already dwindling mana of the Earth Immortal was further wasted on an illusion, reducing his chance of escape, his face twisted in a grotesque grimace.

"Faced with a formidable Earth Immortal senior, I naturally had to be cautious!" Li Zhirui's body appeared in the distance, saying with a calm expression.

Puff!

When the Earth Immortal tried to respond, a mouthful of blood spurted out.

The Demon Cultivator had come up behind him while he was distraught. Had the Earth Immortal not come to his senses in time, this attack would have been more than just spitting blood; it would have pierced a vital point, taking his life.

However, this still cut off his path to life.

"Sigh!"

Li Zhirui suddenly sighed, saying with feigned sincerity: "Seeing as we both come from the Immortal Tao, to prevent you from dying humiliated at the hands of the Demon Cultivator, let me send you off, senior."

Crash ——

Countless giant trees grew instantly where the two Earth Immortals were, a surging wave descending from the sky turning into a gentle drizzle, merging into the dense forest, further enhancing the aura of the giant trees.

"Explode!"

Rumble!

A deafening explosion brought a powerful impact, destroying several layers of the giant wooden cage Li Zhirui had set up earlier.

"Are they dead?"

Li Zhirui anxiously looked towards the explosion's center, amidst the billowing dust and smoke; had he succeeded in killing the two Earth Immortals after all this waiting and scheming?!

For this final strike, he not only depleted his inner mana but even forcibly refined several Immortal Pills and the majority of the mana within the Minor Thousand World.

If he failed, he'd have no mana left to unleash any other divine powers, and would have to hide away miserably within the space.

Furthermore, he couldn't continue with the upcoming trials either.

"Congratulations to Trialist number 10,050, on successfully completing the time-limited trial task! Overachieved the task! Directly entering the eighth level of the Trial Maze!"

When this cold mechanical voice resounded in his mind, Li Zhirui never found a sound so beautiful and pleasing.

"Success!"

Li Zhirui shouted excitedly.

"Return to the trial maze in half a quarter of an hour."

Upon hearing this, he hastily moved ahead to collect the treasures left by the two Earth Immortals.

Especially that pair of Yun Dao Xuan Yang Immortal Fruit and Enlightenment Profound Yin Immortal Fruit!

These were rumored to be the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that could enhance the probability of breaking through to the Heavenly Immortal.

"I wonder if the space can cultivate these two Immortal Fruits, if so..." Li Zhirui couldn't help but start imagining a beautiful future.

But he quickly sobered up, collecting the storage magical treasures and some magical artifact fragments, preparing to return to the maze early.

In the next instant, Li Zhirui only felt a blur before his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was already at the gateway to the eighth level of the maze.

"May I ask, what are the rewards for passing the sixth and seventh level trials?" He looked around, raised his head, and shouted loudly.

In the deepest part of the maze, an artifact spirit full of scholarly aura and handsome appearance, upon hearing this, tapped his finger ungraciously towards the void, and immediately a puppet appeared before Li Zhirui.

"Please select your reward."

The reward for the sixth level still belonged to the Human Immortal Rank, but the seventh level was Earth Immortal Rank!

For the previous reward, he didn't hesitate too much and quickly chose a Spirit Seed, but when it came to the Earth Immortal Rank rewards, Li Zhirui was slow to make a decision.

Because there were simply too many and too rich Spiritual Objects, even though he had prepared mentally in advance, he was still overwhelmed by the choices.

After a while, he finally selected an Earth Immortal Rank Spiritual Root Seed from countless spiritual objects, named Seven Treasures Fortune Spirit Root.

Such a high-grade Spiritual Root Seed was simply unobtainable from external sources, let alone that this particular one was inherently connected to luck and fortune.

It's important to know that a Spiritual Root can indeed suppress luck, and the higher the grade, the better the effect. Coupled with Seven Treasures Fortune Spirit Root being naturally related to luck, its effect was exponentially enhanced.

"The realm is not high, but the vision is quite good." The artifact spirit, seeing this, nodded in praise.
