[Your descendant, before even forming a false core, his sword has already become his core!]
[His body is like a sword, and his core is also like a sword, merging years of swordsmanship into his body to form a sword body, gaining the trait—]
[Thousand Swords Forged Body!]
[His body is like a low-grade spirit artefact. By using core fire to melt swords, the more swords and sword Qi he melts, the closer he gets to achieving a Ten Thousand Swords Forged Body!]
"... Abnormal."
Arriving at the Silver Iron Forest once again, Li Wei watched as ten thousand swords swirled around Li Yaozu. These two words were Li Wei's most heartfelt praise.
The four siblings of the Li family's second generation were each more extraordinary than the last.
Look at Li Yaozu; he was still only at the false core stage.
But, With a body forged from a thousand swords, a low-grade spirit artifact body, he already possessed the strength to contend with Golden Core stage cultivators. Li Wei couldn't even begin to estimate how powerful he would become once he actually reached the Golden Core stage.
As far as he knew, there was a legendary figure on Earth from five hundred years ago.
It was said that this person's parents found a certain inheritance and instilled it within their child, granting them an innate sword body, a Sword Tomb physique. From then on, they soared to prominence, and to this day, legends of the "Swordman" still circulate on Earth.
"How are Yaoqing, Yaowen, and Yunlin doing lately?"
Li Wei muttered to himself. Recently, he could only learn about their news from other family members around him. Many years had passed, and he was unable to observe them directly.
Although their abilities were undoubtedly among the best in the Li family, and time had taught them how to survive and face crises, Li Wei, as their ancestor, couldn't help but worry constantly.
"I'm still a young man, I don't even have children yet. Why am I acting so old and decrepit? Young people should be full of energy!"
Li Wei shook his head.
Then, with his hands clasped behind his back, he walked with a shake of his head and a sigh with each step, his demeanour filled with kindness. His figure was like a weary old song, melancholic yet touching.
He wished he could see his descendants, even if they were just animated characters in a game screen. Unfortunately, for now, he could only rely on the blue panel before his eyes to keep track of his beloved descendants' activities and whether they were in any danger.
[Year 70th: Your descendant, Li Yaoqing, consumed a large quantity of medicinal herbs, breaking through to the peak of Foundation Establishment and beginning to condense her core.]
[Year 73: The Thunderfire Demonic Cave and the Demon Subduing Alliance engaged in the largest battle in their history. This was her busiest year, and she also met the true ruler of the Thunderfire Demonic Cave, the Blood Sea Demon Lord. He was a demon lord who had been sealed for an unknown number of years. He had heard of Li Yaoqing's benevolent heart as a healer and knew that this peculiar 'Deadly Pharmacist' was different from other righteous cultivators. Hence, he agreed to meet her.]
[The Blood Sea Demon Lord recognized Li Yaoqing's extraordinary talent and decided to carefully nurture her, hoping to use her to break out of the Demonic Cave in the future. Li Yaoqing became the Saintess of the Demonic Cave.]
[Year 78: Due to her exceptional medical skills, approaching rank 7, and even mastering the techniques of a rank 7 pharmacist, Li Yaoqing's potions could heal Golden Core cultivators and even pose a threat to them. She became one of the twelve Guardians among the elders of the Demon Subduing Alliance.]
[Year 82: Through Li Yaoqing's secret mediation, the two sides finally reached a truce. They made a secret agreement: the Thunderfire Demonic Cave would cease large-scale killings, and both sides must engage in occasional minor skirmishes. The Demon Subduing Alliance would gradually evolve into a sect power, and the Thunderfire Demonic Cave would occasionally deliver some deserving demons to the alliance.]
Nothing too unusual happened.
It seemed that those righteous individuals who initially set out to subdue demons, after prolonged battles with the Thunderfire Demonic Cave, had undergone a change of heart.
They seemed to have realized that if the Demonic Abyss ceased to exist, their own existence would become meaningless, and the power held by their leaders would vanish into thin air.
Every time Li Wei saw information about Li Yaoqing, he couldn't help but complain, "The family only asked you to investigate the situation with the Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire, but you ended up becoming the Saintess... and as if that wasn't enough, you also became an elder???"
Li Wei was filled with admiration. This seemingly gentle and refined girl always managed to surprise him with her actions.
He then looked at Li Yaowen's information.
This girl, despite controlling an assassin organization with the forces she had brought from the family, still remained a mortal living among the common people.
Almost every now and then, she would try out a different profession. This was her routine. Currently, she is running a teahouse specializing in debt collection.
[Your descendant, Li Yaowen, is nearing the end of her lifespan.]
Two years ago, the Li family spent millions of spirit stones to purchase life-prolonging pills for Li Yaowen. Ultimately, they failed to delay the limitations of her mortal lifespan and the Heavenly Tribulation she was enduring.
And then there was Li Yunlin.
He had led people to exterminate the Su family, but his punishment seemed more like a reward.
[At the age of 52, the Nine Spirits Strange Fire, Lotus Flame, was released, gaining the technique: Heavenly Fire Epiphyllum.]
[At the age of 54, within the Fire Pool located in the territory controlled by the Skyveil Sect, he broke through to the peak of Foundation Establishment.]
[He received instruction from the Grand Elder, Nine Nether Daoist, in the Skyveil Sect's Profound-grade secret technique: Skyveil Grand Mystery Art.]
[To this day,]
[Nine Nether Daoist remain in the Skyveil Hall, assisting Li Yunlin in refining his Golden Core with the Nine Spirit Strange Fire, determined not to leave until a Heavenly Core is formed.]
Judging from this information alone, Li Wei could see the Skyveil Sect's dedication to cultivating Li Yunlin; it could be said that they were sparing no effort.
Profound-grade technique and martial skills also varied in quality. The Skyveil Sect's secret technique was naturally of the highest level, far surpassing the "Phantom Shadow Steps."
