Li Yunlin is now 22; given his natural talent, he should have been the pride of the Li Family.

However, life is like a fickle bitch.

Not only has Li Yunlin's life been filled with misfortune, but after being sent to the Cliff of Reflection, he managed to break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining purely through sheer willpower, despite having no spiritual energy within him.

This has made Li Xiang somewhat appreciate Li Yunlin's current temperament; the sharp edges of his youth are gone, replaced entirely by composure and restraint.

"Life can destroy a person, but it can also allow them to break out of their cocoon and be reborn."

Li Xiang took the opportunity to bestow upon Li Yunlin a 'Love from the Ancestor', "I hope you can forge ahead with all your might."

At this moment, having just stepped off the Cliff of Reflection, Li Yunlin sensed a warm current surging into his body.

Five years had passed.

He had once again felt the encouragement of his ancestor!

He hurriedly knelt on one knee and bowed toward the sky. Compared to the agitation he felt five years ago, he was now much calmer. "Thank you, Ancestor. After five years of reflection, this child understands. Perhaps I shouldn't have come to the Litian Sect in the first place, but I do not regret it."

"Wherever I fell, I will climb back up from there, step by step, until I reach the very top!"

"I will never fail the expectations of my ancestor and my family!"

With those words, he silently headed toward the Litian Sect.

"..."

Why did that sound so familiar?

However, Li Xiang didn't mind. As long as Li Yunlin did nothing to harm the family's interests, Li Xiang would support his current decisions.

Among the third generation of descendants, only Li Yunlin had faced such a path of tribulation.

As for the others...

Li Xiang switched the view.

Outside Zhien Village, there was a field enclosed by a massive wall; this was the dedicated training ground for the children of Zhien Village!

These children possessed the fierce courage inherited from the villagers of Zhien Village.

Many of the children were sparring, trading blows that landed with real impact.

The descendants of the Li Family were also practicing on this field alongside the village children. According to Li Dalong, the Li children should grow up alongside the children of Zhien Village from a young age so that they could integrate into the village. This would prevent the Li children from becoming arrogant and extravagant like the spoiled brats outside, thereby cultivating the character of the Li Family's future generations.

The Li children already possessed sufficient resources.

If they wanted to secure a place within the Li Family's growing influence, they had to earn the recognition of the family and its sphere of influence, and integrate into the Li Family's power structure. If they had neither talent nor virtue, and spent their days wasting family resources and tarnishing the family name, it would be better to cast them out and let them experience the harshness of the world.

Li Xiang agreed with this sentiment.

Fortunately, the third generation of the Li Family had all received an excellent education.

"Especially that kid, Li Yunbing."

Li Xiang grinned.

He clicked on Li Yunbing's avatar, and the game screen shifted.

"A body refiner draws upon the energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon, then lets it erupt through the meridians, breaking through the body, enduring the pain of skin and flesh!"

"This is the lower realm: the body becomes like vine and wood, capable of resisting blades!"

"When energy erupts within the flesh and blood, and the body endures the pain of a thousand needles, this is the upper realm!"

"With a body like solid rock, a hundred-pound weapon is nothing more than a trifle in one's hand."

"When the internal organs resonate in unison and spiritual energy flows freely through the meridians, this is the supreme realm; the physical body itself becomes a low-grade magical artifact!"

Li Yunbing, no more than 13 years old, was already acting as an instructor for the children on the training ground.

His face was still somewhat youthful, as handsome as his older brother Li Yunlin, but his eyes held an indescribable purity and ethereal quality, and his voice was crisp.

"This method was once the Wang Family Body Tempering Art, a Yellow-grade physical technique. Now that it is used by all of us in Zhien Village, you must not waste your time; you must practice it constantly. Whoever reaches the lower realm will be eligible for a position in the Black Blood Hall upon reaching adulthood."

The many children below included some who were two or three years older than Li Yunbing.

Yet, the look they gave Li Yunbing was filled with reverence.

An older child asked Li Yunbing with curiosity, "Instructor, what realm have you reached?"

"Little Aunt won't let me say."

Li Yunbing shook his head sincerely, then began to teach the children the physical techniques.

Li Xiang's eyes lit up as he watched this scene.

"Li Yunbing has great potential to surpass Li Yunlin."

He had already opened Li Yunbing's personal information.

[Li Yunbing (Third Generation Member)]

[Realm: Peak of Qi Refining Level 6]

[Techniques: Phantom Heavenly Cluster Steps, Body Tempering Art, Shengxi Changming Technique, Thunder-Attracting Heavenly Scripture]

[Trait: Heart of an Innocent Child]

Li Yunbing was born with four spiritual roots, and his aptitude was inferior to his brother Li Yunlin, but he made up for it with the family resources provided to him. However, that still shouldn't have been enough for him to reach the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining at such a young age.

The key was...

Aptitude!

[Heart of an Innocent Child]

[Simple and kind, with a mind free of distractions, he is not bothered by external affairs during cultivation, making it easier to achieve sudden enlightenment. Comprehension of techniques increased by 80%. Cultivation speed increased by 30%!]

Clearly.

He wasn't troubled by the fact that his mother, Qu Xiaoxiao, had been expelled from the family, and he had understood the reasons behind it long ago.

The only downside was...

Li Xiang flipped through his past event log.

[At age 3, he was tricked out of his candy by a child his own age and cried his heart out.]

[At age 5, he took pity on an assassin disguised as a beggar and was nearly killed, only saved by the Ancestor casting a spell.]

[At age 7, he obtained the Heart of an Innocent Child.]

[At age 9, he heard Li Dalong say that practicing the Wang Family Body Tempering Art didn't hurt at all. After practicing it, he was in agony, but he blamed himself, so he practiced even harder...]

[At age 12, he heard Li Yaozu say that practicing the Phantom Heavenly Cluster Steps inside the Death-Stilling Heavenly Coffin was very simple, so he died 27 times on the first level before finally catching a glimpse of the path.]

"Hmm, a rare fool in the Li Family."

Li Xiang rubbed his forehead and gave a wry smile, unsure whether this personality of Li Yunbing's was a good thing or a bad thing.

Then, he shifted the view.

Li Yaotie now had five children, and because the Silver Iron Forest was close to the Li Family, all five children were currently in the Silver Iron Forest.

"Oh, Grandpa, look, I'm flying!"

"Grandpa, Grandpa, today I'm definitely going to run faster than Uncle Turtle!"

"Fifth sister is bullying people, she broke my nose again... It's okay, Grandpa, I'm tough, I fixed my nose myself."

"..."

Li Xiang saw a bizarre scene. Li Yaotie's children had perfectly inherited the genes of Li Yaotie and Bai Rourou; each one was extremely sturdy, almost as if they were cut from the same mold.

Even the little girl, Li Yunjie, was like a small cheetah.

Take the eldest, the third child, Li Yundou, for example.

At only 8 years old, he had already grown to 1.5 meters tall. Bare-chested and with dark skin, he bent his hand to snap his bleeding nose back into place, his biceps already quite prominent...

From their physiques, which were far superior to their peers, one could predict just how robust they would grow to be as they aged.

At this moment, the center of the Silver Iron Forest was like their playground, and they were playing extreme sports with spirit beasts that children shouldn't be playing, focusing entirely on being tough.

The Pig Demon King, the overlord of the Silver Iron Forest, was now watching this group of children playing and frolicking before him with a benevolent smile.

"Li Yaotie and Bai Rourou are truly talented; they've raised such a group of children."

Li Xiang didn't know what to say.

However, he felt very reassured. After all, Bai Rourou, who was raised by the Pig Demon King, had excellent character. Now that Li Yaotie's five children were being raised by both the Pig Demon King and the Li Family, it would be a miracle if something went wrong.

He was eating the roast chicken that Yuexian had delivered to his room.

While switching screens.

Li Xiang's gaze was suddenly drawn to a line of text in the event log. His mouth, stuffed with meat, curled up, and he began to click the mouse.

[Your descendant, Li Yaoqing, has broken through to the early stage of Foundation Establishment.]

[Her aptitude has undergone a transformation: Four-element mixed spiritual roots!]

[After nearly five years of enlightenment, she suddenly discovered a cultivation technique within the Classic of a Thousand Herbs. She realized that ancient pharmacists all used plant and flower demons as their dantian to form a Divine Infant and cultivate a Primordial Spirit, thereby attaining the Dao Medicine Body.]

[Therefore, she sought the consent of the family's spirit beast, the 'Eight-Leaf Flower Demon', and forged the 'Eight-Leaf Flower Demon' into her dantian, living in symbiosis with it to obtain the Heavenly Condemned Vegetation Divine Art!]

[The Eight-Leaf Flower Demon has consequently transformed into a Nine-Leaf Elixir Embryo!]

[Obtained Trait: Immortal Embryo]

"I..."

Li Xiang was dumbfounded, staring blankly at Li Yaoqing, who had just emerged from seclusion and immediately rushed to the Ancestral Hall to kneel and kowtow, shouting, "Blessings from the Ancestor!"

At this moment, Li Yaoqing had been reborn.

Although she was 38 years old, she looked like a young girl. However, her appearance remained unchanged; she was still wearing dirty robes, unkempt, and crying her eyes out.

"Ancestor, Yaoqing hasn't offered incense to you for several years. Please, Ancestor, do not blame me."

Li Xiang casually used 'Love from the Ancestor' on Li Yaoqing.

With trembling hands, he clicked on Li Yaoqing's information.

[Li Yaoqing (Second-generation descendant)]

[Profession: Ninth-grade Pharmacist]

[Realm: Early Foundation Establishment]

[Cultivation Method: Classic of a Thousand Herbs, Heavenly Condemned Vegetation Divine Art]

[Traits: Plant Affinity, Immortal Embryo]

Li Yaoqing's current state was far more than just a simple transformation; the gains she had reaped from the Classic of a Thousand Herbs were potentially even greater than the Death-Stilling Heavenly Coffin, that top-tier spiritual treasure!

After all, Earth had seen the emergence of immortals during the millennium of spiritual energy recovery.

Anything involving the word "immortal" was never simple!

He tapped on the Heavenly Condemned Vegetation Divine Art and the Immortal Embryo, discovering that the descriptions for both the technique and the trait were identical, and both were related to the Nine-Leaf Elixir Embryo that had transformed into a dantian within Li Yaoqing's body!

[Heavenly Condemned Vegetation Divine Art: Cultivate the Nine-Leaf Elixir Embryo; each realm broken through leads to an Immortal Embryo!]

[Cultivation speed increased by 30%, herb planting speed increased by 100%. From now on, one can discern the efficacy of all herbs under heaven.]

The description was concise and to the point.

Based on Li Xiang's current understanding of the introduction.

It meant that every time Li Yaoqing broke through a major realm, the Elixir Embryo would sprout an additional leaf, simultaneously enhancing her aptitude until it finally formed an Immortal Embryo.

As of now, Li Yaoqing's Nine-Leaf Elixir Embryo had already sprouted two leaves, and her aptitude had become that of a Four-Spirit Root.

At three leaves, her aptitude would become a Three-Spirit Root.

At four, a Dual-Spirit Root.

And so on.

With each breakthrough, Li Yaoqing's aptitude would strengthen, and her power would increase in tandem with that improvement!

Li Xiang had never heard of such a monstrous constitution.

Without a doubt, as long as Li Yaoqing could advance steadily, she would one day become an immortal. Even if her current strength was inferior to others, once her aptitude evolved into a Dual-Spirit Root, a Single-Spirit Root, or even the stronger Heaven-Spirit Root...

Her strength would increase exponentially.

Furthermore, her Heavenly Condemned Vegetation Divine Art was also growing stronger; it currently possessed two layers of techniques, with the first layer being Common-grade and the second layer being Yellow-grade.

If she continued to break through layer by layer, Li Yaoqing could eventually possess Heaven-grade or even stronger techniques.

The most terrifying part was that once a layer was unlocked, the cultivation progress of the technique would instantly reach 100%, achieving the pinnacle of mastery!

"Monstrous."

Li Xiang swallowed hard as he tapped on the Heavenly Condemned Vegetation Divine Art.

A bold idea took shape.

[You have selected the technique of your descendant, Heavenly Condemned Vegetation Divine Art.]

[Do you wish to replicate the technique?]

[Incense cost:...]

"???"

"Even more monstrous."
