Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 502: Li Dalong Break Through

Li Wei looked at Li Dalongʼs personal event log.

[Li Family Year 280, your descendant, Li Dalong, was cultivating on the Wu Clanʼs ancient battlefield.

He struggled to pursue the Rules, but to no avail, and he was without the aid of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin.

He began to recall the Domain that had been formed by the spiritual power of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, back when he controlled it and used the ʼFour Symbols Death Spirit Formationʼ to command numerous Heavenly Zombies to enter his body during his battle with Lei Dong.

He began to glimpse the Rules of Soul and Death...]

[Year 286, Li Dalong glimpsed the Rule of Soul and gradually came to understand how a Heavenly Zombieʼs soul is formed during the forging process.]

[He began to secretly communicate with the Heaven-Piercing Coffin through its artifact spirit, investigating the four Heavenly Zombie corpses within the Boundless Sea of Death. And he began to have the artifact spirit transform the corpse of the Wu Clan Elder, ʼMoon Godʼ, observing, bit by bit, how a new soul is generated during the zombieʼs transformation.]

[Year 295, Li Dalong, on the ancient battlefield, used the Rules he had been cultivating and the ʼHeavenly Calamity Soul Hooking Formation Techniqueʼ to awaken the first unconscious soul on the ancient battlefield.]

[Year 302, the souls he obtained from the ancient battlefield grew ever more numerous, and the Rules of Death and Soul he supplemented grew increasingly potent, allowing him to break through to the peak of the Nascent Soul realm!

Regarding the corpse-driving arts and the techniques of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, he began to develop his own understanding.

He no longer followed the cultivation methods of the Heaven-Piercing Coffinʼs previous master, Shen Wu.

Acquired Trait: Controller of Dead Souls]

[He can control the souls of the dead, can gradually refine zombies on his own, and after gaining control over dead souls, his power is enhanced. He can issue commands to the dead souls.]

What followed was an endless period of cultivation.

Li Dalong had always been of a diligent nature. On the ancient battlefield, not a single day passed when he was not comprehending the Rules, and he was also constantly communicating with the souls of the ancient battlefield.

[Year 350, your descendant, Li Dalong, has taken control of one-tenth of the dead souls on the Wu Clanʼs ancient battlefield! Through these dead souls, he has integrated the Rules of Death and Soul into his Nascent Soul, constructing his own unique Domain—the Dead Soul Domain. With every dead soul he controls, the Dead Soul Domain expands slightly.]

[Year 360, as the time to head to Eternal Sun Prefecture draws ever nearer, and although he has not yet made the most optimal preparations, your descendant Li Dalong has decided to take back the Heaven-Piercing Coffin and break through to the Divinity Transformation realm!]

Watching the lightning tribulation in the sky, and the shadow of a Vajra gradually forming within it, Li Wei frowned.

”A third-grade Divinity Transformation tribulation?”

In truth, Li Dalong had reported this to him via the Heaven-Piercing Coffin before. Given that, and adding the spirit medicines the family had prepared for Li Dalong over the past year, the resources were, at most, only sufficient for Li Dalong to attempt a third-grade Divinity Transformation tribulation.

If Li Dalong were given enough time, the innumerable dead souls within these hundred mountains would, bit by bit, enter his Nascent Soul.

Then his Domain would become even more powerful, and he could even attempt to break through the ʼfourth-grade Divinity Transformation tribulationʼ that Ye Xiu once faced.

However, right now, the family is about to face Tian Xing. This is also their opportunity to annihilate him, and for that, the family needs a Divinity Transformation expert!

”If only we had another hundred years...”

Li Wei let out a long sigh.

Sensing the ever-increasing number of prying gazes from the surroundings, Li Wei furrowed his brow slightly. To be able to overcome the Divinity Transformation tribulation at all was already good enough; he couldnʼt ask for anything more.

The most important thing now was to act as a Dharma Protector for Li Dalong!

...

And around the hundred mountains, figure after figure came flying through the air.

The hundred mountains were once the territory of the Spirit Jade Division. But following the long years of war between the Wu Clan and the Azure Cloud region, and the ceaseless battles, large and small, between Soulstar City and Azure Cloud, the Wu Clan had long ago begun to fall back and defend its territory.

Now, this land of a hundred mountains had become a place where disputes between the Wu Clan and the cultivators of the Azure Cloud region would occasionally break out.

The breakthrough of a Divinity Transformation cultivator here had not only attracted the attention of the Wu Clan, but had even drawn figures from the border city!

A dozen or so people had come from the border city.

Floating in the air over 30 miles away, they too could feel the oppressive might of the lightning tribulation from within the hundred mountains. Their faces were grave and solemn.

”Such a familiar aura.”

Among the group from the Azure Cloud region, a man dressed in a black shirt slightly raised an eyebrow.

This person was none other than Old Ancestor Tianye of the Ghost Eye Sect.

One hundred and forty years had now passed since the Li familyʼs calamity.

Ye Xiu of the Myriad Arts Sect had vanished without a trace, and the Three Regions of Azure Cloud had become one entity. More and more capable individuals from all across the Azure Dynasty had fled to the Azure Cloud region, yet through it all, his Ghost Eye Sect could still claim the title of the number one sect.

A period of over a hundred years could make many people forget many things, but Old Ancestor Tianye still fondly recalled the days of braving mountains of swords and seas of fire alongside the Li family.

Sensing the aura from within the hundred mountains, a sliver of anticipation rose in his heart, and he subconsciously murmured in a low voice, ”Brother Dalong was able to command ghosts back then, what a pity...”

As he spoke these words, Old Ancestor Tianye could not help but let out a sigh.

”That canʼt be Li Dalong.” Among the group from the Azure Cloud region, a middle-aged man dressed in a purple robe, his face full of righteous integrity, spoke in a solemn voice.

”Although I only came to Azure Cloud in the last hundred-odd years, I have heard of this person, Li Dalong. The ʼRockʼ Patriarch of the Li family, is he not? His aptitude is mediocre; it was already a great feat for him to break through to the Nascent Soul realm back then.

His ability to overcome the Nine-Nine Lightning Tribulation was thanks to that coffin Dharma Treasure of his, and the same goes for his ability to fight Lei Dong.”

Hearing this, Old Ancestor Tianye furrowed his brow and shot a sidelong glance at the man.

Back then, the Li family, through various methods, established a grand framework in Azure Cloud, making the region of today increasingly prosperous, with more and more experts.

But gradually, these newcomers showed not the slightest bit of respect for the Li family.

Han Qiusheng, now under the command of Region Prince Jiang and ranked 89th on the Nascent Divinity List, was a prime example!

He (Tianye) had already suppressed his anger, but this Han Qiusheng was still chattering endlessly, speaking as if his every word was perfectly logical.

”With such mediocre aptitude, how could he possibly break through to Divinity Transformation in just over a hundred years? If that were truly the case, his comprehension ability would have to be second to none in this world.

What a pity, though. Even if he truly possessed such comprehension, it wouldnʼt be enough.

From where would he have gotten the fortuitous encounters and resources? Back then in Azure Cloud, they drank the blood of the region for many years, which is what made it so barren.”

”After they left, just look at how prosperous Azure Cloud is now! Since they can no longer plunder the resources of the Azure Cloud region, I fear Li Dalong hasnʼt even broken through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm by now.”
