Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 430 - 436: Busy
```
"Damn it! The Li family must have been plotting all along; otherwise, how could they have kept it so secret?" Lei Tian looked at the Jade Slip in his hand, which recorded the downfall of three families and the Li family's quick dispatch to take over, filled with anger and hatred.
If he had known that Li Zhirui was at Golden Core Perfection, he definitely wouldn't have acted so recklessly.
Although he is still the Sect Leader now, that's only because the successor has not yet been decided. Once the decision is made, Lei Tian is likely to be immediately ousted!
Is Lei Tian willing to accept that? Of course not! Who would easily let go after savoring the taste of power?
But what can he do? The fact that Shen Leishan didn't throw him out to take the blame and didn't impose any punishment has already saved his face. To ask for more would be graceless.

The major powers in Green Mountain State breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that the Li family had broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm. With this development, as the two sides faced off, they would be able to survive in the cracks.
Not to mention the distant events, let's talk about what's happening now. The disciples of Shen Leishan who were attacking Green Mountain State quickly withdrew once the news spread, allowing the defense line that was about to be breached to return to their hands and securing their territory.
The previous attacks of Shen Leishan's disciples on Green Mountain State truly frightened them. Those Golden Core Cultivators, more than twenty in total, placed all their pressure on the border, seeming determined to conquer Green Mountain State; it was truly terrifying!
"But are you not idealizing the Li family too much?" one Elder coldly said: "Do you think the Li family is composed of great benefactors? Won't they covet Green Mountain State?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent. Green Mountain State was like a delicious cake; everyone wanted to take a bite, but they just didn't have the strength to protect their own land.
"First, let's reach out to the Li family and see what their attitude is," the Elder sighed inwardly, knowing that the Li family wouldn't make a move against them in the short term.
After all, the Li family has a limited number of members, and they have just absorbed the land of three states. The earlier two states also need to be re-arranged with manpower, and such a vast territory naturally requires a substantial number of Cultivators.
But the problem is, the Li family's growth is too fast. Ordinary powers are still working on increasing their Golden Core foundation, yet the Li family already has a Nascent Soul True Lord.
Thus, over the next few years, they don't have to worry too much about this issue. As for days further in the future, that's beyond his knowledge, after all, the Li family cannot be judged by ordinary standards.
"How impressive!" the Store Manager of the Southern Edge Commerce Association couldn't help but feel truly amazed.

But then thinking of the trade with the Li family, a smile appeared on his face. Spirit Pills personally refined by a Nascent Soul True Lord! This selling point alone could increase the price of the Spirit Pills by quite a margin!
"However, the contract is almost due, and with the Li family about to hold their ceremony, it's a good time to discuss renewing the contract."
As for the congratulatory gift, the Great Elder was very generous, directly giving a fourth-tier Pill Recipe.
Of course, the corresponding fourth-tier Spirit Seeds would not be included, as he didn't have such authority.

Meanwhile, on Wanxian Island, the clan members became very busy, as if there were endless tasks for them to accomplish.
The most pressing matter, naturally, was taking over the land of those three states, as well as reconstructing the Spirit Lands of Yunping and Guang Qing states, which is why many clan members had been dispatched. Some were stationed in the Spirit Lands, and others were sent to help with planning and setting up Formations and the like.
These latter clan members are the most exhausted, as they have to manage several Spirit Lands, and the timeline is extremely urgent.
```
Fortunately, on the Spirit Lands of the Fan Family, many of the arrangements hadn't been damaged and could continue to be used with just minor repairs; otherwise, that would have been another massive expense!
Now, the Li family could hardly produce any more Spirit Stones because there were other matters to attend to.
The next issue was holding the Nascent Soul celebration for Li Zhirui.
Whether it was Li Shiqing or the ordinary clan members, they all wanted to hold a grand ceremony and invite all the nearby forces to attend.
As one could imagine, the scale and standard of the grand celebration had to be enormous; the amount of Spirit Stones required for such an event would undoubtedly not be small.
"Clan Leader, the family can no longer afford to buy Spiritual Objects with Spirit Stones," the Internal Affairs Elder said with a pained expression.
To maintain sufficient face, all Spirit Food and Spiritual Wine at the banquet had to be at least of the second rank. Although the price of a single item wasn't too expensive, the quantity was immense! And to be on the safe side, they also had to purchase a few fourth rank Spiritual Objects, which was yet another huge expense.
Li Dayuan nodded calmly; he had anticipated the family's shortage of Spirit Stones well in advance, but he had already discussed a solution with Li Shiqing and the others.
That was to rent out the Spirit Veins throughout the five states!
Besides those mountain gates of various powers and several key-operated Spirit Lands, all the other Spirit Veins would be leased out, with prices set according to the size and grade of the veins.
"Don't worry, it won't be long before the family will have plenty of Spirit Stones," Li Dayuan briefly explained their plan.
As for whether Cultivators would come to rent? There was no need to worry about that issue, because those Cultivators renting the Spirit Veins would be taken on as vassals of the Li family, greatly ensuring their safety.
After all, with Li Zhirui, who stood among the top figures of the age, hardly anyone dared to move against the vassals of a Nascent Soul power.
Indeed!
Once the Li family sent out the news, it sparked a buzz of discussion, and a large number of Cultivators keen on establishing their own power came running to lease Spirit Veins.
Despite having a wealth of Spirit Veins, this news suddenly created a buying frenzy, showing just how influential a Nascent Soul True Lord could be.
Meanwhile, Li Zhirui, who was consolidating his cultivation in the quiet room, had no idea that a huge surprise was being prepared for him outside.
Li Zhirui only felt one thing, and that was that the Spiritual Energy on Wanxian Island seemed a bit thin! It was already somewhat insufficient for his daily needs.
But that was only to be expected, after all, this was merely a third rank Spirit Vein, and he was only in one of its Spirit Caves.
"It seems that after coming out of seclusion, promoting the Spirit Vein should be on the agenda," Li Zhirui thought to himself.
Before his breakthrough, Li Zhirui had studied the Nascent Soul section of the Wanling Sutra for many years. Now that he had made his breakthrough, he quickly grasped the cultivation technique and soon became thoroughly familiar with it.
From the Nascent Soul Realm onwards, advancing further was not just a matter of accumulating more Mana; it also involved cultivating the Spiritual Soul. Once the Spiritual Soul was cultivated into a Yin God, breaking through to the Divinity Transformation Realm would be like capturing something within reach, as easy as turning over one's hand.
It seemed simple, but one should know that the Sea of Consciousness, where the Spiritual Soul resided, was far more fragile than the Dantian. Even a minor injury was no small matter!
