Background / History
The Li Family begins as Li Dalong’s household, descended from Li Xiang through the Cultivation Family Simulator. Li Xiang grants Dalong the Li surname through ancestor worship and later provides the Qi Refiner Cultivation Manual, enabling the family’s first cultivation advancement. Dalong and Xu Cuihua establish the direct line through their children Li Yaozu, Li Yaoqing, and Li Yaotie. 1 2 3
Early generations survive through farming, weaving, hunting, and cultivation around Zhien Village. The family endures drought, bandit attacks, and hostility from Tailin Town while expanding its bloodline and using the Beast Blood Fruit Tree, captured spirit beasts, and enemy spoils to build a material foundation. 3 4 11 14
Under Li Dalong’s leadership and Li Xiang’s ancestral interventions, the clan defeats the Hu, Wang, and Su families, gains control over Tailin Town’s affairs, and develops into the power behind the region. Its victories supply magical artifacts, Spirit Stones, ore, pills, formations, and territory. 11 17 32 60 62
The family is repeatedly displaced by war and persecution. After the Pig Demon King’s sacrifice, the clan evacuates its ancestral grounds, carries away its major resources and spirit beasts, and vows revenge. Li Dalong later defines the family’s survival principle: wherever its ancestral tablets stand, there is its ancestral hall. 69 73 134
Over centuries, the Li Family transforms from a regional cultivation household into the dominant force of Qingyun Prefecture. Zhien Town is renamed Merit City, the Human Emperor recognizes the clan as the Iron-Boned Immortal Clan, and the family establishes branches, grotto-heavens, military forces, commercial networks, and specialized cultivation lineages throughout the Qing Imperial Dynasty. 150 377 431
The clan later destroys the Longevity Zhao Family, inheriting its 160,000-year foundation and gaining the Longevity Immortal Clan trait. Its members continue to advance through Void Refinement, Body Integration, and beyond while producing Dharma treasures, Spirit Puppets, and large-scale defensive equipment. 413 429 595
After accepting the Cultivation Family Simulator, the Li clan members discover that they are within the Heavenly Dao’s body and that countless “Li Xiangs” are maintaining the world’s spiritual energy. They subsequently ascend to the Heavenly Dao level, replace the existing immortals, and learn that their bloodlines have accumulated the potential of powerful beings since the dawn of heaven and earth. 968 969 973
Over the following ten thousand years, the clan’s accumulated inheritances and losses become a new source of power. Li Yaotie absorbs more than ten thousand sets of Clan Treasure Armor and countless immortal artifacts and spirit treasures through the Fate-Driven Forging Method, ultimately making his warship, mechs, armor, and humanoid form parts of a single true immortal-artifact body. 1090
As the world collapses around the World Core, Li Yaotie decisively defeats the Immortal Court’s Hua Ji and Wanrong, while a returning Lost Wayfarer restores life to the wounded Li clansmen and their allies. At the same time, Li Dalong resolves his millennia-long conflict between his underworld authority and identity as the Li Family patriarch, choosing to return to his gathered family. 1090
