Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 305 - 311: Polishing
After pondering, Jiang Fengwu called over his elder brother, Li Zhizhun, and said, "Big brother, Zhiyue is currently undergoing Core Formation, and it won't be long before she starts her Tribulation Transcendence. But given the current situation, it's inconvenient to use a Communication Talisman. I must trouble you to make a trip to the battlefield and inform Zhirui and the others about this."
"Alright, I'll go now!" Li Zhizhun agreed without any hesitation, saying, "Until then, I'll have to trouble my sister-in-law."
With that said, Li Zhizhun hurriedly left the ancestral ground and rode on his Flying Artifact towards the battlefield.
Since it was merely a few hundred miles, and he was moving at his fastest speed, it took him only a quarter of an hour to reach the battlefield.
"Is it already over?" Looking at the people below starting to clean up the corpses, Li Zhizhun was surprised at the speed, and the anxiety that had been hanging over his heart finally relaxed.
"Big brother, why have you come?" Li Zhirui, who had regained quite a bit of mana, was overseeing from above the battlefield to prevent cultivators from fighting over Spiritual Objects.
As for the two senior members of the Li family, Li Shiqing and another, they were naturally resting in the back, tallying the clan's internal losses.
After a quick count, the Li family had a total of fifty-seven deaths. There were many injured, but it wasn't a big problem; they would recover after some time of recuperation back home.
Beyond that, there was the consumption of Talismans, Spirit Pills, and other Spiritual Objects. The numbers in this regard were quite large, but they were all inanimate objects that could be earned back later.
They also had to calculate the points for those who were preparing to exchange for Spirit Veins and establish their power, listing out the top twelve and then letting them choose the Spirit Veins according to their rankings.
Although the Spirit Veins produced by the Li family were all first-order Spirit Veins, there were many nuances to them, such as some Spirit Veins that generated more Spiritual Energy, some that fused with water sources to produce Spirit Water, and some that naturally formed Spirit Caves.
The list provided by the Li family would detail the advantages and disadvantages of each Spirit Vein. As for how to choose, it would be up to their own preferences.
But let's get back to the point!
"Zhiyue is currently undergoing Core Formation and will soon begin her Tribulation Transcendence. My sister-in-law is pregnant and worried about accidents, so she can't go all out. That's why she asked me to come over and see how things are going."
"What?!" Li Zhirui was overjoyed. He hadn't expected Li Zhiyue to make her breakthrough at this time. With this, the Li family's strength would be greatly enhanced.
Even her breakthrough alone could completely make up for the deceased clan members, offsetting the weakening of the Li family's strength, and even surpassing it.
"I'm heading back now!" Li Zhirui, also worried about any accidents, immediately said, "Big brother, please inform Uncle and the others about this, and ask them to oversee the battlefield to prevent any chaos."
"Go with ease," Li Zhizhun nodded. As someone who had previously served as Clan Leader, he was even more adept at handling this matter than Li Zhirui.
Li Zhirui wasted no time and turned into a breeze, using his fastest speed to fly back to the ancestral ground.
In less than a quarter of an hour, he returned to the ancestral ground and saw Jiang Fengwu, who was pacing back and forth near the entrance to Li Zhiyue's Spirit Cave for her secluded cultivation, looking somewhat restless and anxious.
"Fengwu, I'm back. I'll take over the matters here; you should go back and rest," he said.
Jiang Fengwu quickly turned around, and seeing that Li Zhirui was unharmed, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'll leave this place in your care."
She was now pregnant, especially in the most dangerous first three months, and could not afford to be overly anxious and worried.
Before Li Zhirui could rush back, Jiang Fengwu had already dispersed the nearby clan members, preventing them from nearing, lest the Thunder Tribulation absorb their breath and intensify the catastrophe.
As soon as the two had finished coordinating, the sky had darkened significantly, with dense clouds looming and thunder rolling, the sound of roaring thunder echoed in all directions.
Before long, Li Zhiyue emerged from the Spirit Cave, and seeing her in good condition, Li Zhirui let out a slight sigh of relief.
She too saw Li Zhirui and flashed him a brilliant smile, clearly confident about her own ability to overcome this Tribulation.
Soon, a bolt of Tribulation Thunder smashed down from above, the ferocious silver dragon roared wildly, its terrifying presence inspiring fear at the mere sight.
But under Li Zhiyue's meticulous spells, the thunder was continuously weakened, and although the process was somewhat slow, it was very steady, especially since it drained very little of her own energy.
"It looks like Zhiyue's Tribulation Transcendence won't be a problem," Li Zhirui whispered to himself.
In truth, for cultivators backed by power, passing a Golden Core Tribulation isn't as perilous as it seems to outsiders, because the intricacies of it all are thoroughly explained by their elders.
Like the Li family, even if only Li Zhirui and two others possessed Golden Cores, their recorded experiences in transcending Tribulations could improve the success rate for all clansmen, not to mention those from major forces.
But why are Golden Core cultivators still quite rare? The main reason lies in the fact that many Foundation Establishment cultivators, like Li Shiren and Li Shiting, are unable to grasp that bit of the Golden Core Essence, also known as the Foundation of the Great Tao.
Without that foundation, everything else is as ephemeral as flowers in water or the moon in a mirror; how can one continue to advance?
Li Zhiyue's Tribulation Transcendence was very slow, she took a good two to three hours just to deal with three bolts of Tribulation Thunder, but the advantage was that the process was very stable, with no accidents occurring.
Now there was only the Heart Demon Tribulation left! Li Zhirui was a bit worried, although over the years, Li Zhiyue's temperament had improved a lot, due to their infrequent contact, he was not clear about her current condition.
At this moment, Li Zhiyue was caught in an illusion created by the Heart Demon, it was the scene where Li Zhirui had reprimanded her in the past!
However, compared to the past, the Li Zhirui in the illusion was much harsher, belittling Li Zhiyue to no end, and even Li Shiting, who should have been consoling and guiding her, was saying all sorts of harsh words.
Li Zhiyue was deeply struck, her heart slowly shattering, and the Heart Demon took advantage of the vulnerability to make the illusion all the more real.
"No! You are not Jiu, Mrs. Ting! They would never treat me like this!" Just as Li Zhiyue was about to succumb, several images flashed in her mind, and she yelled and struggled frantically.
The Heart Demon that was about to corrupt Li Zhirui's Spiritual Soul had not expected her to suddenly become aware, and it roared in reluctance.

But as a Heart Demon, besides bewitching people with illusions, it had no other means, and once its deception was recognized, the illusion would become ineffective in a short time.
So no matter how much the Heart Demon struggled, it was eventually erased by Li Zhiyue.
And above, in the sky of the outside world, the clouds of Tribulation began to transform into rich Spiritual Energy, condensing into a column of light that entered Li Zhiyue's body, enabling her to forge a true Golden Core.
Li Zhirui, who had been inwardly anxious for Li Zhiyue's lack of awakening, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene, "At last, she has succeeded!"
But through this incident, he also realized that Li Zhiyue's temperament was not as good as he thought, and decided that she still needed more refinement.
