Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 297 - 303
"No, you have a talent in talisman making, don't you?" Li Zhirui saw Jiang Fengwu still looking distressed and immediately changed the subject, "Let's go, let's learn how to set up a Formation from Ren Uncle."
So far, the highest achievement in Formation mastery within the Li family was by Li Shiren. He may have a gift in this area, but unfortunately, due to his cultivation level, he could probably only be a second-tier Array Master.
What surprised both of them was that Jiang Fengwu, who was not gifted in other skills, actually had an extraordinary talent for Formations!
She had only just come into contact with first-tier Formations and had managed to learn one in just half an hour. Although there were a few small mistakes in her Formation setting technique, in the end, she successfully set it up.
Li Zhirui was dumbfounded at this scene; he would never have imagined that Jiang Fengwu's talent would be reflected in the most difficult of Formations!
Even Li Shiren, who was teaching Jiang Fengwu, was stunned, his face full of surprise and his eyes showing a hint of complexity. After a while, he smiled and said, "It seems that it won't be long before the family will have another third-tier Array Master!"
By then, the Li family would have Li Zhirui in Alchemy, Li Shiqing in talisman making, Li Shilian in planting and Beast Taming, as well as Jiang Fengwu, the newly promoted third-tier Array Master.
Apart from Artifact Refiners, the Li family would have their own experts in several of the common Cultivation skills.
Array Masters are rather special among these, as they are needed to set up the Island Defense Array of Wanxian Island!
The current Island Defense Array of the Li family was set up by an Array Master from Shen Leishan. It doesn't seem dangerous, but there is still the risk of leaking the Array Eye.
"See!" Li Zhirui smiled, "I told you that you must have a talent."
In fact, he had already lost hope and was starting to think about how to comfort Jiang Fengwu. He was also recalling whether there were any other skills the family could pass down.
Jiang Fengwu was also very happy because from what she knew, the ability of Array Masters to earn Spirit Stones was not as much as others, but it was not considered low either. Especially high-tier Array Masters, due to their scarcity, could charge a very high price whenever they took action.
"Ren Uncle, I'm entrusting Fengwu to you!" Li Zhirui, seeing her with a goofy smile, not knowing what fantasies she was indulging in, did not disturb her but turned to Li Shiren and said.
"Don't worry, since she has such high talent, I will teach her everything I've learned. I hope she can fulfill my wish." Towards the end, Li Shiren's face could not hide his disappointment and unwillingness.
He had tried multiple times to break through his bottlenecks, even risking his life on several occasions, but no matter what, he could not make any progress. So now, Li Shiren had lost all hope; he was only thinking of passing down his knowledge on Formations.
Especially that one, the third-tier Formation he had gone through his life's blood and sweat to conceive!
He had originally thought that there would be no family member with a talent for Formations in a short time, or even if there were, he would not live to see their growth.
That's because Li Shiren was already very old, and he and Li Shiting were the last two remaining members of the 'Shi' generation, with only a few remaining years of life.
But unexpectedly, in the last few years of his life, there appeared Jiang Fengwu, a genius in Formation, and what's more important, she was a Golden Core Cultivator; he wouldn't have to wait many years to see the third-tier Formations, to see the Starlight River Array he had designed!
"You all go back first; in the next few days, let me think about how I should teach Fengwu." Li Shiren's dim and lusterless eyes once again lit up with brightness.
"Good, Ren, make sure to rest," Li Zhirui said as he led Jiang Fengwu, who was still lost in fantasy, away.
Once they were back in their cave abode, Li Zhirui's expression turned very serious. "Fengwu, since you have a great talent for formations, I hope you will not waste this talent and certainly not let down Uncle Ren's expectations!"
Seeing her puzzled face, Li Zhirui explained Li Shiren's situation to her.
He was helpless, too; in fact, he had several mature Golden Ganoderma in his possession. If possible, he would not hesitate to risk giving them to Li Shiren to use.
However, the problem was that Li Shiren was still blocked by a bottleneck, and the Golden Ganoderma, which could increase the chances of Core Formation, was useless to him.
So, he could only watch helplessly as this elder, who had taken such good care of him, aged.
"I understand, don't worry, I will study hard," Jiang Fengwu, who had already been preparing to work hard for Spirit Stones, now had new motivation.
Several days later, they once again entered Li Shiren's cave abode, and he taught Jiang Fengwu one-on-one, completely disregarding Li Zhirui's presence.
Starting from the origins of formations and gradually extending to various fundamentals because he believed that while Jiang Fengwu was a Golden Core cultivator with great talent for formations, a strong foundation was most important.
Therefore, Li Shiren decided to spend six months building a solid foundation for Jiang Fengwu, and then slowly teach her how to deploy formations.
If possible, he also wanted to teach her how to construct new formations and how to integrate formations into combat.
Because Jiang Fengwu was too tired during the day, the newlyweds did not frolic too much and were not lost in the pleasures of conjugal love.
At the same time, Li Zhirui was not idle. Besides his daily cultivation and making Vitality Pills, he also began trying to deduce and construct a third-grade Hundred Herbs Pill recipe from those of the first and second grades!
Although the refining of Hundred Herbs Pills was difficult and required a large amount of Spiritual Medicine, it possessed an advantage that couldn't be ignored—it was cheap!
With ninety-nine first-grade Spiritual Medicines and one third-grade Spiritual Medicine, one could refine a third-grade Hundred Herbs Pill. Wasn't that more affordable than needing several third-grade Spiritual Medicines to refine Vitality Pills?

Especially for Li Zhirui, who had his own space, even without using Spirit Stones to accelerate growth, first-grade Spiritual Medicines only needed one or two months to mature!
Unfortunately, in the remnant volume of "Medicine King's Pill Scripture • Upper Volume" that Li Zhirui had obtained, there was only a direction without any specific guidance, requiring him to spend a lot of time and effort to make it possible.
Moreover, he now had to spend time consolidating his recent breakthrough, as well as protecting Li Zhiyue, who was officially in closed-door cultivation, due to his new marriage and not being able to go out for experience. He had enough time to work on this task.
Furthermore, deducing pill recipes was also a kind of cultivation for him, which could polish his temperament and improve his alchemy skills—why wouldn't he embrace it?
As Li Zhirui and others began to immerse themselves in cultivation, the Li family became quieter and more low-key.
But no one dared to overlook the Li family because of this. The wise knew that when the Li family stepped out into the limelight once again, they would certainly become even more powerful!
