Seeing how she repaid the Contribution Value all at once, with as much as ten thousand, Li Zhixuan was truly a daredevil!
Although many years had passed, her cultivation level hadn't stagnated while accumulating Contribution Value, which was enough evidence of her diligence.
Li Zhirui, amused by the situation, said with a smile, "What? You feel guilty for owing me such a large Contribution Value?"
Li Zhixuan didn't respond verbally, but her expression had already given Li Zhirui the answer.
With a grand wave of his hand, he chuckled, "What's the issue? We're all family, no need for such formalities."
The two headed towards the Internal Affairs Hall and transferred ten thousand Contribution Value from Li Zhixuan's Jade Token.
"There's no need to rush into repaying the Contribution Value. Your own cultivation is of greater importance," Li Zhirui shook his head and, instead of continuing the small talk with Li Zhixuan, he said, "I have matters to attend to, so I won't chat with you any longer."
Li Zhixuan stood at the spot for a while and then turned to leave. As for whether she took Li Zhirui's words to heart, only she knew.
After they parted, Li Zhirui went to Li Shiqing's cave dwelling and handed over all nineteen Foundation Establishment Pills he had with him.
"So many?" Li Shiqing said with a surprised face.
Li Zhirui smiled calmly and said, "Many? You should know, a batch of Spiritual Medicine can produce up to ten Spirit Pills at most, and I've only managed to make two or three."
"Although I'm not an Alchemist, I'm not ignorant about Alchemy." To produce ten Foundation Establishment Pills in one batch, one would have to be a third-tier Alchemist! Even for an ordinary third-tier Alchemist, the success rate wouldn't be too high.
Li Shiqing didn't dwell on this matter but murmured, "With these Foundation Establishment Pills, plus those bought earlier, we won't have to worry about the clan members lacking Foundation Establishment Pills for the next ten to twenty years."
In thirty years' time, the Foundation Spiritual Medicines cultivated by the Li family would enter the first maturity phase, by then there would be no worry about a shortage of Spiritual Medicines, instead, how to deal with the surplus of Foundation Establishment Pills would become a concern.
"When are you planning to leave for your journey?"
Li Zhirui shared his decision, saying, "In five days, I guess. By then I'll have made all the necessary preparations and can set out."
"Where do you plan to go?"
"The battlefields of Shen Leishan and Yin Wind Cave," Li Zhirui said with a calm face.
On the contrary, Li Shiqing was startled by his words, "You want to go to the front lines of the two sects? That's the most dangerous place." Find more to read at My Virtual Library Empire
"Thank you for your hard work." After withdrawing Xiaoqing into space, he prepared to walk to the battlefield by foot, which was also a form of cultivation.
Because Li Zhirui did not conceal his aura, his journey was extremely calm, with no cultivators or devil beasts daring to confront him.
There was even a second-Order Devil Beast that foolishly stretched out its claws towards Li Zhirui, only to be eliminated by him instantly.
The swiftness of the act made some persistently foolish cultivators feel a chill in their hearts. They truly didn't expect Li Zhirui's strength to be so formidable that he could easily crush a second-order Devil Beast.
But in reality, how could it be that easy?
The reason for such a shocking scene was that Li Zhirui intentionally did so to deter the other cultivators. Now it seemed, the effect was rather good; at least, there weren't as many cultivators as before.

"Attack!"
A group of cultivators took advantage of the fact that Li Zhirui had just finished a battle and that his mana hadn't had time to recover. They made a decisive move, and streaks of Spirit Light, like falling stars, smashed towards Li Zhirui.
Their speed was so fast that he could not dodge in time, and could only activate his Defensive Magical Artifact, preparing to take the blows head-on.
Prior to this, Li Zhirui's Defensive Magical Artifact, the Water Cloud Pearl, had shattered. He had originally not wanted to buy a second-tier Magic Artifact since his mind was set on achieving the Golden Core, and it seemed highly probable.
Unfortunately, since he had not broken through and had to venture out for experience, before leaving, Li Zhirui had no choice but to exchange Contribution Value for a decent Defensive Magical Artifact.
"Want to take advantage while I'm vulnerable? Then let's see if you have the ability!" Li Zhirui snorted coldly.
His hands moved rapidly, and one after another, huge vines rose from the ground in front of him. Under his control, they eventually morphed into a green Thorny Dragon, much larger than the Ice Dragon he had previously commanded.
Moreover, due to the nature of the vines, the dragon would possess different characteristics. For instance, using Thorns Vine would create a powerful Thorny Dragon.
The Thorny Dragon soared into the sky, with vines growing out of its body at an extremely fast pace, charging towards those cultivators.
Ah!
Two cultivators, whose reactions were not quick enough, were directly pierced through by the vines. Then, under the horrified gazes of the others, the bodies of the two men melted away as rapidly as a snowman under the scorching sun!
The remaining few, seeing this, dared not speak of avenging their comrades. They fled into the distance with fearful expressions.
