Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 373: Sword Herald



This time, the Li family obtained a very long breathing space, but they didn't dare waste the time; all Li family disciples cultivated diligently.

For the Li family members, ten years passed like sand slipping through their fingers.

The previously war-torn Azure Cloud region border also underwent huge changes. Just as they had originally planned, they established a 300-mile Great Wall between the border and the Endless Forest, creating a huge obstacle to Wu Clan attacks, and the pressure on Azure Cloud region's border defenses eased.

Over these ten years, there were few large battles, mostly conflicts involving fewer than ten thousand people. Moreover, much of the time it was the 'Azure Cloud Region Army' doing the fighting. Both sides tacitly exercised restraint, as if they were just training troops.

On this day, Li Wei also awoke from his closed-door cultivation beside Daoist Shanchen, where he had been comprehending laws. This time in seclusion, he no longer felt the previous loneliness and had slowly grown accustomed to this feeling. It seemed that after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, ten years passing felt like only half a year. During this period, he only woke once during a major family sacrificial ceremony. He also conveniently returned to the present world once, sent some items back [into the game world], and obtained a large number of treasures [from the game world].

However, over these years, Li Yunbing also completed several special events by commanding battles, and obtaining some Family Will, so Li Wei's Family Will was only consumed by a tiny amount.

[Family Will: 42]

[Congratulations! You have cultivated beside Daoist Shanchen for ten years, obtaining a large amount of spiritual energy and comprehending some laws of mountains and earth. The powerful force of these laws will cause your Nascent Soul to break out of its embryo and transform into a Spirit!]

Li Wei's consciousness sank into his abdomen. Within his Dantian, an infant was sitting cross-legged in meditation. After the Nascent Soul is formed, it has the appearance of an infant. During this period, one must not only absorb Heaven and Earth spiritual energy but also incorporate Heaven and Earth laws as nourishment into the Nascent Soul. Finally, when the Nascent Soul looks exactly like oneself, it can become a Spirit!

The difficulty in cultivating the Spirit lies in integrating laws into the body; this is why countless cultivators in the world stop before reaching the Spirit stage [and thus Divinity Transformation]. Of course, there are also those with heaven-defying opportunities who find certain grotto-heavens and blessed lands or use other methods to forcefully incorporate laws into their bodies, allowing them to break through to Divinity Transformation.

However, wanting to break through to Divinity Transformation in the Azure Cloud region was extremely difficult. Li Wei could feel it; the Heaven and Earth laws in the Azure Cloud region that could be incorporated into the body were exceedingly few, so much so that he hadn't made much progress even after cultivating for ten years [in this aspect].

"Can only take it slowly."

Li Wei had no other solution for this. Previously, he hadn't even dared to think he could break through to the Nascent Soul stage; now, he had already begun seeking the opportunity to break through to Divinity Transformation. He could only do his best and leave the rest to fate.

Li Wei also began to check on the situation of the various Li family members.

Just as he was looking at Li Dalong and his wife...

Li Wei's face suddenly darkened.

[Your descendant Li Dalong attempted to break through the fifth layer of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, without success. He dual cultivated together with Xu Cuihua inside the Heaven-Piercing Coffin for ten years. During this period, he only came out from the Heaven-Piercing Coffin to participate in the major sacrificial ceremony. Seeing that the Azure Cloud region faced no major battles concerning its survival, except when the children had questions, he rarely emerged from the Heaven-Piercing Coffin.]

Li Wei guessed that this couple probably felt the same as he did; with the increase in lifespan, the concept of time was no longer regarded as so important. They didn't even care about new children being born into the Li family anymore. No wonder many experts were indifferent to worldly affairs.

Afterwards, Li Wei checked on the children of the Yao generation.

Ten years had passed, and that fellow Li Yaozu was still hanging out with the Star Sword Saint.

[Your descendant Li Yaozu and the Star Sword Saint are traveling the world together, seeking opportunities and comprehending sword intent.]

Although it was called traveling the world, they were actually just running around everywhere within the Azure Cloud region. Instead, whenever they saw children in the Azure Cloud region who liked practicing swordsmanship, they would leave behind some techniques, so that these children could join the border's Azure Cloud Region Army when they grew up to fight the Wu Clan and defend their homeland.

[Your descendant Li Yaozu acquired the trait: Sword Herald]

[He tells stories everywhere in the Azure Cloud region about the great war with the Wu Clan, causing the tales of Azure Cloud region cultivators fearlessly battling the Wu Clan despite life and death to be passed down by word of mouth. Has a 0.1% chance each year to obtain an opportunity for sudden enlightenment.]

"Back then, he was a sword-snatching maniac; now he's a Sword Herald."

Just as he was marveling at how different each stage of life is.

The Star Sword Saint beside Li Yaozu had grown a beard over these ten years, looking incomparably weathered. Seemingly out of habit, he murmured to Li Yaozu, "Brother Yaozu, I still want to ask, where is Yaowen?"

"..."

Li Wei simply decided not to watch these two strange fellows. When he turned his attention to Li Yaowen, he saw that after these ten years, she had become an old lady again!

Li Tianming, who had become Li Yaowen's shadow back then, was still the same as before, following behind Li Yaowen with the appearance of being simple and honest.

These two... were on the street side in what was clearly a Wu Clan tribe, selling beast meat!

[Moon Dragon Totem · Night Dragon Tribe]

At this moment, Li Tianming, appearing as if he had just returned, walked joyfully to Li Yaowen's side, helping her sell meat and hawk their wares. Then, he murmured in a low voice, "Fourth Aunt, we've been staking this place out for ten years already. Still haven't found the right opportunity? I miss Big Brother."

[Your descendant Li Tianming, following Fourth Aunt, has sold beast meat in the Moon Dragon Totem territory for ten years. He could only resort to choosing people to kill daily for amusement. Acquired trait: One Kill A Day]

[Feels uncomfortable all over if a day passes without killing. Continuous killing will make him appear no different from an ordinary person. Each time the daily killing task is missed, Psychological Darkness +1%]

Hearing Li Tianming's words, Li Yaowen smiled calmly, "Don't be anxious. Ten years is very short, a hundred years isn't much. An opportunity can always be found. Tianming, ah, you should still kill less. If the negative karma from killing becomes too heavy, I fear that after you reach the Nascent Soul stage, your tribulations will be numerous and severe."

While speaking, Li Yaowen sold another piece of meat to a Wu Clan member.

Just as he was thinking the meat was unremarkable, Li Wei was stunned.

[Your descendant Li Yaowen sold a piece of beast meat, obtaining a tiny amount of Wu Clan destiny.]

Looking again at her past information logs, they were completely full of entries about selling beast meat...

As for what destiny actually is.

Li Wei, observing the other children of the Li family, seemed to understand.
