[Your descendant Li Yaoqing's "Divine Art" grows increasingly profound as time passes.]
[Originating from an ancient immortal, parasitic upon the Divine Art, waiting for a fated person to plant the Nine-Leaf Clover in their body until it awakens.]
[Your descendant Li Yaoqing, after years of refining pills, consuming massive amounts of spiritual liquid, and wielding the Golden Chapter of Enlightenment year-round, is gradually approaching the Dao Gate. Guarding before her Dao Gate is an immortal.]
[Everything she has comes from the immortal, causing her aptitude to gradually become heaven-defying.
She possesses the Spiritual power to suppress everything within the same realm using immortal arts, as well as an affinity for the living beings of heaven and earth.]
[Acquired Trait: Immortal Physique]
[As the immortal awakens, to forge a body suited for its own power, it guided the creation of this Immortal Physique bit by bit.
Now, this physique has begun to take shape. The Nine-Leaf Clover has fused completely with the Immortal Physique and is inseparable.
She can utilize the origin power of Nature. After breaking through to Body Integration, with sufficient heaven and earth origin power, there will be absolutely no bottlenecks.]
"There, there, the Old Ancestor is here. My good child won't be in any danger."
Li Wei gently stroked Li Yaoqing until the child in his arms breathed steadily, revealing a peaceful, infant-like smile.
His expression was dazed; what would happen next, even he did not know.
Perhaps he should have been vigilant back when a maidservant learned the Divine Art and was reduced to ash by a lightning tribulation.
How could good fortune favor a person for no reason? The Heavenly Coffin dug up in the village turned Li Dalong into a zombie.
The Divine Art Yaoqing learned turned her into a human cauldron for an immortal. And then there's Yaowen...
"Huu..."
A figure appeared in the Ancestral Space; it was Yaowen.
Yaowen slowly walked to Li Wei's side, squatted down gently, and stroked her second sister's face.
She looked at the Old Ancestor. The Old Ancestor was still mysterious; even though she was deeply versed in destiny arts, she still couldn't see through the Old Ancestor's true background.
Yet, she could feel the Old Ancestor's fear. The more powerful one became, the more they feared.
It was just like when she first stepped out of their hometown and saw more terrifying things in the outside world.
"Old Ancestor, no matter what we face, we will get through it together," Li Yaowen said softly.
Li Wei had almost forgotten how long it had been since Yaowen showed such emotion after cultivating her reincarnation method.
The bewilderment in his eyes vanished, and he smiled.
"The first time we defeated the neighboring town, survived years of drought, and built a Tower of Skull at the Xiao family... all the way to now."
He recounted the past, the smile on his face growing increasingly genuine.
"Right. If it's a human, we kill them. If it's a ghost, we send it back to the Underworld. If it's an immortal, we have killed immortals."
Li Yaowen looked somewhat dazed. "No matter what is inside Second Sister's body, there will definitely be a solution."
"Definitely."
Li Wei's gaze gradually softened. Breaking through to Body Integration, immortals emerging into the world—he was afraid, as the world in his eyes became increasingly mysterious.
But Yaowen was right.
There was always a solution; at the very least, he shouldn't wallow in despair.
"The entity in Second Sister's body is an immortal. This child will go and have a talk with It."
Li Wei glanced at Yaowen.
This child was much more formidable than him, the Old Ancestor. He nodded slightly. "There's no need to be polite with It. Behind Ah Qing is us."
...
Flames soared into the sky within the Heavenly Fire Dao Field.
A large cauldron blazed with fire.
This Spirit Gathering Cauldron, which had followed Li Yaotie for many years, was originally a low-grade Dharma Treasure that generated a 'Spirit' to gather techniques.
Yet it had been forcibly turned into an artifact-forging treasure used by Li Yaotie to generate 'Characteristics' for the treasures he refined—just as unfocused on its proper duties as its master, Li Yaotie.
There were many descendants in the Dao Field.
His wife, Bai Rourou, was quite robust; with short white hair, she looked valiant and heroic.
Seeing Li Yaotie return weighed down with heavy thoughts, her expression immediately tightened as she learned about Second Sister's situation.
"You need to keep Second Sister's words in mind. Whatever she says, she definitely won't want us to worry. The more she acts like that, the bigger her trouble actually is,"
Bai Rourou said anxiously. "It's all because of you, you third idiot, making Second Sister so angry."
"Don't panic."
Li Yaotie took a deep breath. "The Old Ancestor and Fourth Sister definitely know about Second Sister's situation. Turning to any doctor in a panic won't help."
Bai Rourou choked on her words. That was indeed the logical truth. The man of her house looked foolish, but he actually understood everything.
But Li Yaotie's next words made her expression drastically change.
"In the battle at Grandhaven Prefecture, I clearly saw how powerful immortals are. When Banshu Qingping appeared, he injured Linghu Xian in a single move."
Li Yaotie's voice was heavy. "The Red Dust Immortal was right. If we want to deal with immortals, we don't have many methods."
"We either become immortals, or enter the demonic path."
Bai Rourou said in a grave voice, "We husband and wife will do it together."
"What are you thinking?" Li Yaotie frowned.
"Tell Zhiheng to send over the corpses of the watchdog and Banshu Weide. The right foot I forged using Underworld materials was able to kick the watchdog. It works."
"What's inside Second Sister's body is an immortal, but if I can become stronger than that immortal, then It will have to stay groveling inside Second Sister's body forever."
