Chapter 598: Chapter 302: Direct Descendants
Of course, very few people actually invest time and effort into these things. After all, once someone reaches the Harmonization Dao, focusing on their own cultivation is already extremely difficult...
Who has the time to be distracted? At most, they can nurture one or two life-bound Magical Artifacts, and that would be remarkable.
Only Li An would make plans in this regard.
Moreover, the reason Li An wants to continue in these areas is also to prepare for becoming an immortal in the future!
When becoming an immortal, the many Great Daos cultivated by a cultivator will be tested by the Celestial Tribulation. If one survives, they can attain a corresponding Immortal Dao fruit rank.
For instance, if Li An keeps cultivating the Talisman Dao, enters the Crossing the Tribulation stage, and his Talisman Dao withstands the Immortal Tribulation, he will be acknowledged by the Great Heavens, and after entering the Immortal Dao, he can acquire the "Immortal Talisman" method!
As it is said, "Celestial Talisman granted by the Heavens"!
While still at the lower levels like Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, any cultivator with great perseverance and enough resources can cultivate in Talismans, but after entering the Immortal Dao, this becomes a forbidden path. If one foolishly exercises its power without the recognition of the Heavenly Dao, they will certainly face backlash!
When Li An was in the Dao Sect, he particularly focused on collecting various secret tales about becoming an immortal, so he knows quite a lot.
Ordinary cultivators are referred to as Talisman Masters, while those who have become immortals also have the title of "Immortal Talisman Master," and the Immortal Talisman Masters among the immortals have an extremely high status and are exceedingly rare!
"Talisman, Pill, Array!"
These three Great Daos, Li An intends to keep cultivating.
No matter which one can withstand the calamity of the Great Heavens, it should be of great benefit to him after becoming an immortal.
However, currently, being under house arrest here, it’s difficult for him to practice in these aspects.
In Li An’s long wait, in the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
Li An began to feel nervous and anxious. According to Yi Wei, the Exotic Realm had started the widespread slaughter!
The upper echelons of the Yi Clan might personally come here to assess the results!
"Brother Li, you don’t need to worry. I’ve heard that Elder Shangguan is highly valued in the clan. Even though you are from the Spirit Realm, you also have a chance to enter our Yi Clan..."
Yi Wei comforted Li An as they drank together.
In reality, Yi Wei genuinely liked Li An. Although Li An’s cultivation was far higher than his, he was very perceptive and didn’t have the arrogance of a senior. Instead, he called him Brother Yi, was easy to get along with, and was sincere with people. He even proactively gave him many good things, a treatment he had never received before.
"Not worried."
Li An smiled slightly, raising his cup to drink, thinking to himself about when it might be appropriate to kill Yi Wei and escape, should his plan fail...
"Where is Yi Wei?!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard. Yi Wei’s face changed dramatically, saying, "It’s not good; it’s the voice of Mr. Yi Xuan!"
He hurriedly rolled out, crawling and stumbling, only to see Yi Xuan leading quite a few people over. He even saw his elder brother, Yi Jie!
Yi Jie trembled, saying, "Mr. Yi Xuan, those corpses were indeed given to me by my younger brother."
Yi Xuan’s gaze coldly scrutinized Yi Wei.
Yi Wei was frightened by Yi Xuan’s gaze and saw that the scene was large, with many people behind Mr. Yi Xuan who seemed to hold significant positions in the clan. He couldn’t help but panic, saying, "Mr. Yi Xuan, that... that corpse has nothing to do with me. It was Li An, Li An gave it to me!"
He plunged to the ground with a thud, saying, "It was all him. I fell victim to his schemes, Mr. Yi Xuan, I’m innocent!"
He knew something must have happened. The corpses Li An gave him likely caused a huge calamity, and he and his elder brother, Yi Jie, would probably be implicated...
For a moment, he regretted it immensely, as if a basin of cold water had been poured over him. He regained self-awareness after being so captivated by Li An all this time!
Yi Xuan merely snorted coldly, saying to the few behind him, "Esteemed ones, Li An is in this place--"
The few people who followed Yi Xuan weren’t the true high-ranking members of the Yi Clan, but they were trusted aides to those higher-ups, so their status was high, not inferior to Yi Changfeng, who he dare not offend.
Li An was still drinking, and upon seeing the group enter the courtyard, he hurriedly stood up, saying, "Greetings, Lord Yi Xuan!"
Yi Xuan waved his hand, directly saying, "Li An, these are the esteemed ones from the clan. They have some questions for you, and you must answer honestly, without any falsehood. Do you understand?"
Li An’s expression turned serious, "I understand!"
Immediately, one of the middle-aged men stared at Li An, "Where did you get those corpses?"
Li An glanced at everyone; there were four people in total. This middle-aged man’s status seemed the highest. There were also two young men and one young girl. The girl, following at the end, seemed only to be watching the commotion.
Li An’s heart subtly moved.
Finally, they came!
On him, the jade pendant given by Lady Yi had already started to faintly react!
Among these four, one must be a direct descendant of Lady Yi, but which one? He still needed to carefully discern.
Fortunately, he had long been prepared.
"Reporting to the esteemed ones, those corpses were actually raised by me!"
Raised by himself!
Hearing this, everyone was truly shocked, even the young girl at the end was quite surprised.
"Raised? How could you raise corpses with such abundant life energy?"
The middle-aged man immediately questioned.
Li An gave a wry smile, saying, "My aptitude is not very good. When I broke through to the Harmonization Dao, the Celestial Tribulation went wrong, causing my Harmonization to be incomplete, making it difficult to progress further in this life, so I planned ahead for life extension."
