In the days that followed, because the Li family had the backing of the Cloudsea Pavilion and the Silver Iron Forest, the attacks from the Azure Cloud City region barely caused any harm to them. Green Valley Village also became the most stable place in the entire Sky Jade City region.
As for the Skyveil Sect, it was even less of a problem. Li Yunlin was a direct disciple of the Skyveil Sect, even if he couldn't bring the news back to the Li family.
Li Wei could still learn about it through Li Yunlin's perspective.
[Year 54th, Li Yaotie's seven children, together, cultivated the "Life Thread Blood Guiding Technique" and gained some insights. The seven of them began to travel around the Li family's chambers of commerce in the Sky Jade City region, often performing acts of chivalry and earning the reputation of the "Seven Ironclad of the Li Family"]
[Acquired Trait: United in Purpose]
[When fighting together, strength increases by 10%]
[Your descendants have gained a small reputation, gaining +100 incense]
"These seven little guys have finally achieved something."
Li Wei was also happy for them. Although the youngest of the seven was only 8 years old, they all inherited the chivalrous spirit of Li Yaotie and Bai Rourou.
[In the same year, Li Dalong ventured alone into the second level of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, dying nearly ten thousand times. With a newfound understanding, he entered seclusion to break through to the peak of Foundation Establishment!]
[Li Yunbing is approaching the peak of Qi Refinement and has begun seclusion in an attempt to break through to Foundation Establishment!]
[Year 55th]
[Your descendant Li Yaozu has fought alongside the family for many years, acquiring over a hundred swords from enemies and learning more than ten sword techniques. His swordsmanship has gradually matured within the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, and he has now entered seclusion! He has declared that unless there is a major event, he will not leave seclusion until he reaches the Fake-Golden Core realm!]
[...]
After gaining the Cloudsea Pavilion's friendship, the Li family's experts gradually entered seclusion. Bai Rourou, who had given birth for many years, also recovered her health and was ready to enter seclusion for a breakthrough at any time.
The only one still struggling at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment was Li Yaotie!
Just as he clicked on Li Yaotie's portrait, Inside the forge, flames raged fiercely. Li Yaotie, his entire body flushed red from the scorching heat, continued to hammer away tirelessly.
[After years of forging, Li Yaotie gradually grasped a certain hammering technique, but he also faced a bottleneck, preventing him from creating iron as strong as the 'War Puppet' his ancestor made, nor could he forge a left arm that satisfied him.]
[The trait of 'Never Give Up' drives him to keep trying until he succeeds!]
"Just a little bit more, and I'll become an eighth-grade Artifact Refiner! mid-grade spiritual artifacts, high-grade spiritual artifacts, I'll be able to craft them effortlessly!"
Li Yaotie seemed possessed. Despite his usual carefree demeanor, he became incredibly focused when it came to artifact refining.
"Keep it up, little Tie."
Li Wei understood clearly. People who were passionate about a certain profession were often like this. Their love for their craft was as fervent as a believer's faith. They were true artisans.
And now, it wasn't Li Yaowen who was managing the Li family's affairs, but Li Yundou, one of the Seven Ironclad Sons.
Although Li Yaotie's children might seem like reckless warriors, they weren't foolish. Especially with Xu Cuihua overseeing things, the Li family was currently flourishing.
As for Li Yaowen...
At 40 years old, Li Yaowen possessed an even more refined charm. With her hair in a bun and dressed in a white dress, she sat in a wheelchair like a drooping white lotus, pushed by a Li family servant girl.
Ever since the Li family's troubles had subsided, Li Yaowen had been traveling and enjoying the scenery, and she hadn't returned home in two years.
The servant girls accompanying her were all in their thirties or forties, each carrying weapons.
Occasionally, when they were in the mountains and forests, skilled guards would move through the shadows, providing protection.
"Fourth Miss, if we go any further, we'll be outside Sky Jade City region," one of the servant girls reminded her.
Li Yaowen smiled charmingly, "What? Is Sky Jade City region a cage for you and me?"
The servant girl shook her head repeatedly, "It's just that once we leave Sky Jade City region, we'll be outside our family's territory."
"You still say it's not a cage?" Li Yaowen's smile deepened. You may think it's not, but you're already unwilling to leave the Sky Jade City region. In reality, your thoughts are already trapped within a cage. The world is vast; there's nowhere we can't go, nothing we can't do. Only by being fearless can we break free."
"Fourth Miss, you're extraordinary, I don't understand." The servant girl still shook her head.
Li Yaowen didn't say more, and she led the Li family's servant girls out of the Sky Jade City region.
Only Li Wei, in front of the screen, widened his eyes.
"Holy sh...!"
With a gasp, Li Wei nearly knocked over his milk tea, "Is it really happening???"
He remembered that Li Yaowen wasn't incapable of cultivation. No matter how poor her aptitude, she still had five-element mixed spiritual roots. It was just that she had always wanted to cultivate the literary path and read all the books in the world!
And now...
[Your descendant Li Yaowen's knowledge has long been profound. With guidance from Huang Xiujin of the Cloudsea Pavilion, she has begun to step out of the Li family's comfort zone, observing the myriad things in the world and witnessing the joys, anger, sorrows, and happiness of humanity.]
[Over the years, she has collected the works of sages and talented individuals from all over the world and aspires to write "The Book of the World," divided into nine chapters, totaling the ultimate number of ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.]
[Your descendant is currently writing and comprehending the first chapter of "The Book of the World" -]
["Sentient Beings"]
[Your descendant Li Yaowen's tribulation is approaching!]
"Hiss~"
As soon as the game's prompt appeared, Li Wei gasped in astonishment.
Although he didn't know much about literary cultivation, he knew a little. Li Yaowen... it seemed she had been plotting something for a long time, and it was no small matter!
Other literary cultivators usually cultivated through the writings of sages or the righteous poems of the Book of Songs.
But Li Yaowen?
This one directly created her own work based on the world's literature! No wonder she hadn't been able to cultivate the literary path all these years!
So it turned out she was aiming for the whole world, with the first chapter directly encompassing all sentient beings.
"She's cultivated to the point of triggering a heavenly tribulation..."
Li Wei scratched his head, never expecting that his descendants would provoke the heavens in such a short time.
