Chapter 1448 - 1193: Destiny
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Fang retorted loudly upon hearing Li Zhirui’s words: "The Divine Skill I hold is a most orthodox Immortal Tao cultivation technique. I’ve specifically run tests on it; it’s absolutely not some kind of Demonic Tao sinister method!"
"If that’s the case, then why did you kill them? What kind of Immortal Tao cultivation technique uses others to practice?"
Li Zhirui shook his head, unwilling to explain further. He directly subdued him and retrieved the so-called Divine Skill from his storage magical treasure. With just a glance, it verified his suspicion—it was indeed a trap set by a demon cultivator.
Looking at Fang, who had lost his sanity and seemed possessed, Li Zhirui looked at him with an indifferent gaze, feeling not sympathy but sorrow.
The true hardship of a loose cultivator’s survival is noteworthy: while a major force might create an individual immortal from one among ten thousand disciples, a loose cultivator would have to magnify this by tens, even hundreds of times!
Therefore, the frequent occurrence of loose cultivators being tempted into the Demonic Tao is understandable; many plunge heedlessly into such traps despite knowing, because as loose cultivators, they cannot see a path forward.
For any being that manages to embark on the path of cultivation, this is an exceedingly cruel and ruthless affair.
This is not exclusive to loose cultivators—small forces face similar challenges.
The Li family managed to rise quickly due to two reasons: firstly, Li Zhirui, Jiang Fengwu, and others were blessed with great luck, obtaining numerous fortuitous encounters; secondly, their rapid pace warded off potential attacks, giving them a measure of risk resistance.
The emergence of small forces like the Li family is scarce, perhaps not even one in a thousand years.
Yet, the array of problems is far too vast for Li Zhirui to involve himself in.
