They returned to Wangyao Immortal City.
Lu Li, Ye Chenfeng, Bone Mountain, and the others entered the shop's space.
Inside the magnificent and resplendent weapon-refining hall, everyone remained silent.
The battle in the Trial Immortal Realm allowed Lu Li to see the secrets of the Immortal Realm.
Among the many immortals, the Ninth-Turn True Immortal is already the strongest that ordinary immortals can come into contact with.
At least until now, Lu Li has not personally encountered a Human Immortal.
Although he was only Seventh-Turn True Immortal, his combat power was enough to overwhelm Ninth-Turn True Immortal.
This was without using the Falling Firmament Azure Heaven, the Heavenly Decree Golden Wheel, or the Emperor Lotus Throne.
"Although I am not in the Imprisoned Dragon Heaven or the Great Desolation Heaven, the Heavenly Decree Golden Wheel and the Emperor Lotus Throne are both treasures bestowed by the Great Thousand Heavenly Dao."
"It also possesses power far exceeding that of ordinary Immortal Treasure in other realms."
With the blessing of numerous treasures, he could easily defeat even True Immortal at the ninth level of the Heavenly Realm, and might even be able to fight a Human Immortal.
"Such combat power should not be wasted if it is not utilized promptly."
While silently pondering, Lu Li took out all of Zhou He and the others' storage Immortal Artifact.
He distributed the immortal crystals, immortal pills, and Immortal Artifact inside to everyone.
Only then did he turn his gaze to Ye Chenfeng.
" Junior Brother Ye, are there any jobs available for apprehending or chasing criminals in Wangyao Immortal City?"
Lu Li's words drew the attention of Ye Chenfeng and the others.
Everyone instantly understood what Lu Li was planning to do.
Ye Chenfeng remained silent for a moment before responding.
"Senior brother, the matter of pursuing and capturing the Tribulation Immortal is indeed true."
"This matter is actually being handled by the Immortal City Prefecture. Senior Brother, are you planning to risk everything for profit?"
Nodding, Lu Li frankly expressed his feelings.
Ji Wan's predicament was a thorn in his side.
Neither he nor Great Xia could have guessed how long it would take for Ji Wan of such great skill, to find them.
Even to the point of finding the Great Desolation.
Even if the realm is initially established, there will be a thousand years of peace.
However, given its numerous henchmen, this stability is unlikely to be easily achieved.
With such a crisis looming, Lu Li must seek solutions amidst peril.
"Senior brother, could this be...?"
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Ordinary True Immortal are no match for me."
"As long as it doesn't involve Human Immortal, there's basically no problem."
Seeing that Lu Li had made up his mind, the others said no more.
The celestial realm is unlike any other in the Immortal Realm; here, there are numerous immortals, and the rules and regulations are extremely strict.
Trying to attain enlightenment through arduous cultivation and gradual trading is simply impossible, given that it takes millions of years.
They clearly don't have the time.
After some discussion...
Lu Li devised a strategy.
With so many of them, Bone Mountain and his group's combat strength and cultivation were still considered decent among ordinary True Immortal.
However, once you surpass a level, exceeding several rank, you are no match for them.
Even Ye Chenfeng could only barely withstand True Immortal at the fifth or sixth level.
In that case, Lu Li sent Ye Chenfeng, Bone Mountain, and the others to recruit Immortal Artificer.
Maintain the weapon-refining shop.
He himself went to the Immortal City Prefecture to look for suitable targets to apprehend.
Having established their direction, Lu Li and the others wasted no time.
I knew the days to come wouldn't be peaceful.
Inside the weapon-refining shop, everyone divided up the pills that could enhance their cultivation.
This was the first time Lu Li had taken an elixir and was using immortal crystals to cultivate.
" The Essence-Concentrating Return-to-Truth Pill, Immortal Beginning."
"The ingredients used in this immortal elixir are all celestial materials, extremely precious."
"I just don't know how effective it will be."
Inside the shop, Lu Li sat cross-legged in a quiet, secluded room.
This shop's space is connected to the immortal energy of Xuandu Heaven, and its immortal power is even richer than that of his Fallen Heaven World.
Therefore, he practiced his spirituality here.
With a flick of his finger, a divine white pill rolled into his mouth.
The pill entered the mouth and instantly transformed into a warm and mellow Immortal Power, surging down along the meridians.
That force was not as violent as the impact of Vandan.
Instead, it flows like spring water irrigating fields, seeping continuously into every inch of the immortal veins.
Lu Li's body trembled slightly with a celestial Immortal Qi.
On the Dao Seed within his body, the seven cracks representing the Seventh-Turn True Immortal were like parched soil receiving timely rain, greedily devouring this Immortal Power immortal power.
Comfortable.
Moisturizing.
He was captivated by the blissful sensation surging from the depths of his bones.
"The cultivation of immortal pills is indeed extraordinary."
"Even if this single pill were thrown into the lower realms, countless Mahayana would fight tooth and nail for it!"
Having experienced the miraculous effects of the elixir, Lu Li became even more aware of the importance of supplies.
Then he took out a piece of immortal crystal and held it in his palm.
The surface of the crystal shimmers with a lustrous sheen.
Pure immortal energy surged into his palm, merging with the power of the elixir.
The two forces coexisted harmoniously within his meridians, one gentle and the other firm, solidifying his foundation True Immortal layer by layer.
The breath slowly rose.
Currently engaged in cultivation.
Although it did not reach the threshold of the eighth rank.
However, the accumulated power within the seven stages visibly increases.
Each wisp of Immortal Power sinking into the Dantian is like pouring water into a deep pool, causing the surface of the pool to rise inch by inch.
When he ran out of one immortal crystal, he took out another.
This continued for an unknown period of time. In the secret chamber, a faint ethereal breeze began to circulate on its own, drawing him into a slowly swirling vortex.
Until the thousand-plus immortal crystals shattered into dust, the Dao Seed within Lu Li's body transmitted sound.
"Click... click!"
A shattering sound exploded in his ears.
On Dao Seed Dantian, the eighth crack slowly opened.
Eighth-Turn True Immortal!
After successfully breaking through, Lu Li slowly exhaled a breath of stale air after a long while.
" Eighth-Turn True Immortal, though only one rank higher than a seventh-rank one, possesses several times more Immortal Power."
"If we were to kill Zhou He and the other two now, we could probably do it without even needing the golden seal."
Feeling the changes that come after my breakthrough.
Lu Li felt slightly strange.
The realm of Immortal Dao is far more mysterious and complex than the mortal realm.
Even during the eighth stage of the Seed-Splitting Tribulation, he felt danger.
I dare not break through the barrier casually, but ever since I came to Wangyao Immortal City.
First, they witnessed the vastness of the true Immortal Realm, and then they were provoked by Zhou He and his companion.
Without realizing it, my State of Mind has become more ruthless and decisive.
A single disagreement can escalate into a matter of life and death.
With the aid of elixirs and the supply of immortal crystals, along with many other changes, they unexpectedly survived the eighth cycle of the Seed-Splitting Tribulation.
He is now a true Eighth-Turn True Immortal.
"That's fine too. Now that I'm Eighth-Turn True Immortal, my combat power has increased significantly."
"The opponent is just an ordinary Ninth-Turn True Immortal; I doubt they'll even need to reveal too many of their trump cards."
"The chances of success will be much higher."
A thought flashed through Lu Li's mind, and he felt that this breakthrough had come at just the right time.
After attaining immortality, his State of Mind was completely different from that of someone in the mortal realm.
If I had to pinpoint a specific change... it would be that he now has a somewhat 'celestial' quality.
The breakthrough was successful; the ninth stage, the Seed-Splitting Tribulation, is extremely difficult.
Lu Li absolutely cannot cross it right now; he even has a feeling that he himself will find it difficult to cross it.
This shows the danger that the calamity of the Seed-Splitting Tribulation poses to True Immortal.
Seeing this, Lu Li ended his seclusion, but did not rush to Immortal City Prefecture to find the target of the manhunt.
He possesses the Immortal Artifact left behind by Zhou He.
Perfect timing! I'll use this time to forge another Immortal Artifact to enhance my combat power.
Thinking of this, Lu Li took out several Immortal Artifact, examined the Immortal Inscription on them, and already had an idea in mind.
"During the battle against the Ji Household, I found the halberd to be quite useful."
"This time... let's try forging a halberd of Immortal Artifact- grade quality!"
