Rebirth of the Li Family Immortal Road

His fame spread faster than he expected.

This involves the factor of the Demon-Devouring Boy.

Now, in the Ming Dynasty's world of immortal cultivation, besides the fact that he is in the middle stage of Jindan and has a strength level comparable to that of a peak Jindan cultivator, the most widely spread and famous thing is that he is a good friend of the Demon-Swallowing Boy in the Demon Valley.

The Demon-Devouring Boy doesn’t have many friends.

Especially after reaching Dan stage, one will make even fewer friends.

There is one benefit of becoming famous. When the Li family cultivators go out to gain experience, if they encounter danger, they can have a chance to escape from danger by reporting their names and family members.

Lu Shangqing stayed in Changqing Mountain for most of the day and talked a lot with Li Qianqing. Although he was the one talking most of the time, he left with satisfaction.

After Lu Shangqing left, Li Qianqing returned to his cave to continue his cultivation, striving to enter the late stage of Jindan as soon as possible.

The greater the fame, the higher the corresponding strength required. Although Li Qianqing has met the requirements, it is still far from enough for him.

……

February of the twenty-fifth year of the Qingli period.

Changming Mountain, in the cave with the richest spiritual energy.

At this moment, Li Xunming had just reached the peak of the early stage of Jindan.

After returning from his last trip to Fanyang Country, Thirteenth Grandfather told him to seize the time to improve his strength and prepare for the Cangyun Realm.

Cultivating and breaking through to the middle stage of the Jindan realm is only Li Xunming's first preparation stage. If the breakthrough fails, he thinks he should not go to the Cangyun Realm.

"It is much easier to break through from the peak of the early stage of the Jindan period to the middle stage of the Jindan period than from the peak of the middle stage of the Jindan period to the late stage of the Jindan period..."

Having just reached the peak of the early stage of Jindan, Li Xunming wanted to break through directly to the middle stage of Jindan.

If he had not obtained the Cang Yun Order and had not received the instructions from Thirteenth Grandfather, he would not have been able to cultivate to the peak of the early stage of Jindan at this time. He had used up a lot of resources in his cultivation over the years. Fortunately, he had enough contribution points and was able to exchange them for enough resources from the family treasury.

Compared with the previous thirty years, the resources for Jindan cultivators in the family treasury are now 80% cheaper.

The contribution points that the family's Jindan cultivators can obtain every year are many, which are enough to support their daily practice.

The way he has been practicing over the years requires more resource support.

"Breakthrough!"

After making up his mind, Li Xunming modified the signs outside the cave and began his formal breakthrough.

As long as he completes the breakthrough, there will be two cultivators in the middle stage of Jindan in the family.

Normally, it takes about one to two months to break through from the peak of the early stage of Jindan to the middle stage of Jindan.

In this way, Li Xunming's retreat lasted for thirty-five days.

It is late March, the end of spring.

"Success!" Li Xunming's aura also changed at this time. This time, the process of breaking through from the peak of the early stage of Jindan to the middle stage of Jindan was very smooth.

After entering the middle stage of Jindan, Li Xunming first told Li Qianqing the news.

In the next thirty years, he needs to spend a lot of time studying and practicing, so as to achieve a significant improvement in strength before entering the Cang Yun Realm.

Some of the powerful secret techniques in the family require the middle stage of Jindan to practice. Now he has finally reached the standard and contributed to the filling of the family treasury. He often goes out for training and makes a lot of contributions, but so far he has not contributed any secret techniques.

These were all taken out by Grandpa Thirteen.

Moreover, many of his contributions were concentrated in the foundation-building stage, and the spiritual techniques and secret methods of the Jindan stage were mostly sourced from his Thirteenth Grandfather.

Compared with opportunities in this area, Li Xunming feels inferior. As time goes by, he can better understand why Thirteenth Grandpa is so powerful.

"Cangyun Realm...I hope you won't let me down."

If there was no Cang Yun Realm, after he broke through to the middle stage of Jindan, he would definitely go out and gain some experience.

Because of the Cang Yun Realm, many of his plans to go out were cancelled just to wait for this.

After the excitement wore off, Li Xunming took out a blue-gray jade slip, placed it on his forehead, and absorbed the contents inside.

...

The top of Evergreen Mountain.

Li Qianqing sat on a stone bench and took a sip of spiritual tea. At this moment, a sound transmission note from Li Xunming appeared in front of him.

"Oh, it's the middle stage of Jindan."

Li Qianqing was somewhat surprised that Li Xunming had entered the middle stage of Jindan at this time. He remembered that two months ago, Li Xunming had not yet cultivated to the peak of the early stage of Jindan, but it would be almost there at that time.

He has now broken through to the middle stage of the Jindan period, which means that Li Xunming started to break through when he reached the peak of the early stage of the Jindan period.

Many cultivators at the peak of the early Jindan stage would make more preparations at this time so as to have a greater chance of successfully breaking through in one go.

Li Qianqing originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about his own behavior, he decided not to lecture Li Xunming.

Because he did it himself.

If you continue to preach without doing anything yourself, it will be too easy for the other party to refute you.

Of course, Li Qianqing also knew that even if they had the opportunity to refute his preaching, they generally would not continue to refute, but would listen quietly.

The prestige he has built up in the family over the years is too high.

"Jiji."

As the voice came, a dark shadow appeared on Li Qianqing's shoulder.

After Li Xingsheng passed away, this mutant gold-eating rat followed Li Qianqing. There was no contract between Li Xingsheng and Shushu, and Li Xingsheng gave Shushu the choice of who to follow.

Li Qianqing took out a spirit stone and gave it to Shushu on his shoulder.

After the mutation, the lifespan of this gold-eating rat was much longer than that of many second-level rat monsters, but it had an end after all. Judging from the life breath of the mutated gold-eating rat, Li Qianqing estimated that the rat did not have many years left.

Now, the only monsters in the family, apart from the mutant gold-eating rat, are the fire turtle Changming, who has no contract.

If this fire turtle had not broken through to the third level before, it would have been transferred to Li Changlin for further training. However, after the third level, its intelligence is no different from that of an ordinary cultivator and is no longer needed.

No matter it was Li Xingsheng’s kindness or Changqing Mountain where he had food and drink, they were not reasons for the Flame Turtle Changming to choose to leave.

Even without the constraints of the contract, the Flame Turtle Changming is still the Li family's monster.

"Go and play."

"Jiji."

For some years, Li Qianqing had no intention of letting the mutant gold-eating rats continue to explore spiritual mines. Besides the fact that their Li family now had a lot of spiritual mines, the more important reason was that Li Qianqing wanted this hero to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

In September of the same year.

It is the day for the Li family’s annual spiritual root testing.

Now, the Li family has many children who need to test their spiritual roots every year. At this time of year, more cultivators are needed to engage in the work of testing their spiritual roots.

Nowadays, there are mortal members of the Li family not only in Xiangshui County, but also in other counties. However, there are not many mortal members of the Li family in other counties at present, and most of them are concentrated in Xiangshui County.

As the royal family of Qing Kingdom, the Li family has produced no less than twenty cultivators every year in recent years, among which there are basically foundation-building cultivators with dual spiritual roots every year.

Anren City.

As the Li family became the royal family, the original Anren County gradually developed into a big city, and now it is Anren City.

Originally, Anren County was the center of the current Anren City. At this moment, the mortal children of the Li family in Anren City, aged nine to eleven, were lining up to undergo spiritual root tests.

The one in charge of the first round of testing was a monk of the Li Jiazhong generation.

"Next." Li Zhongxing has roughly examined nearly three hundred children so far, four of whom passed his first round of tests, but none of them had spiritual roots in the second round of tests.

"Li Yongfeng, put your right hand here."

Nine-year-old Li Yongfeng nodded his little head and did as he was told. He knew that these were all immortals in the family, and after passing two rounds of tests, he could also become an immortal.

The test officially begins.

Li Zhongxing's spiritual power began to flow throughout Li Yongfeng's body.

Just as he was about to say something, he immediately widened his eyes and looked at Li Yongfeng in disbelief.

Originally, he wanted to let Li Yongfeng leave and let the next child for the test come in. Then, when he was about to withdraw his spiritual power, he found that the spiritual power he recovered was reduced by half.

As a person at the sixth level of Qi Refining, if he only lost a little bit of spiritual power, he might not be sensitive to it. But if he lost half of his spiritual power, he would notice the abnormality as long as he was not too careless.

"Brother Zhongxing, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, you test it first." Li Zhongxing pulled Li Yongfeng up and said, "Come with me."

Li Yongfeng nodded and was pulled to the next room by Li Zhongxing.

Li Qinghong was sitting in the room.

Li Qinghong, who is at the ninth level of Qi Refining, is in charge of the second round of spiritual root testing. So far, no cultivator with spiritual roots has been found.

"Zhong Xing, why did you come in? What happened?"

"Aunt Qinghong, please test him."

"What's so special about him?" Li Qinghong asked. As long as they passed the first round of tests, they could just let these children in. There was no need for Li Zhongxing to bring them in personally.

"Let me tell you, when I tested him just now, I only recovered 95% of his spiritual power, and the other half seemed to have disappeared into thin air."

"what!"

Li Qinghong looked at Li Yongfeng next to Li Zhongxing in surprise. She had lived for nearly sixty years and had been involved in spiritual root testing for more than thirty years, but this was the first time she had heard of such a situation.

She needs to verify it first.

"Yongfeng, right? Come here and give me your hand."

"Yeah." Li Yongfeng, who realized that something big was happening, felt that he was very special at this moment and might become an immortal directly.

Li Qinghong tested Li Yongfeng, and the test time was three times that of other cultivators. Judging from the test, Li Yongfeng definitely had no spiritual roots.

According to Li Zhongxing, the most important step is to take back the physical and spiritual power that is wandering in Li Yongfeng at that moment.

"It really is!"

When Li Qing was recovering her spiritual power, she also realized that her spiritual power was less, but the amount of spiritual power she lost was far less than half.

She guessed that it was because she was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, while Li Zhongxing was only at the sixth level.

"The spiritual power should have been absorbed by this little guy." Li Qinghong made this guess based on his nearly sixty years of experience and felt that his guess was most likely correct.

"Aunt Qinghong, what should we do now?"

"What else can we do? Of course we should inform the ancestor of this special situation."

"now?"

"Go out and continue the test first. Wait until all the children in Anren City have been tested."

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhongxing quickly went out to continue testing.

The current Li family is no longer the same as before. It is said that in Xiangshui County, or even in the entire Qing Kingdom, no cultivator would think of intercepting their carriages that are transporting children with spiritual roots. This situation happened hundreds of years ago.

Therefore, there is no need to rush when such a situation occurs. After testing all the children aged nine to eleven in Anren City, Li Qinghong will take Li Yongfeng to the family's ancestral land to find the patriarch Li Qianqing.

"Yongfeng, wait here first."

"Ok."

It's almost dusk.

Li Qinghong brought the two children back to Changqing Mountain. Except for the fact that Li Yongfeng could not test the reason, the other child in the family was a cultivator with three spiritual roots.

After settling another family child, Li Qinghong brought Li Yongfeng to the clan leader's cave.

After knocking on the stone door of the cave, the stone door soon slowly opened upwards.

"Clan leader." Li Qinghong called out immediately after seeing Li Qianqing in person.

"Clan leader."

Seeing this, Li Yongfeng also followed Aunt Qinghong and spoke.

Li Qinghong taught Li Yongfeng some things during the journey by carriage. Li Yongfeng is currently following her instructions.

"Tell me the situation." Li Qianqing spoke directly upon seeing this.

"Yes, clan leader." Li Qinghong nodded and quickly told the reason for looking for Li Qianqing, "When I was testing my spiritual roots in Anren City..."

Li Qinghong mainly talked about what happened, focusing on the test of spiritual roots and his guess that their spiritual power was absorbed by Li Yongfeng during the test of spiritual roots.

"Oh."

Li Qianqing looked at Li Yongfeng and already had some ideas in his mind.

He needs to conduct a careful experiment to know the specific situation.

"Yongfeng, come over here."

"Yes, patriarch."

Li Yongfeng glanced at Li Qinghong, and when he saw Li Qinghong nodded, he immediately came to Li Qianqing's side.

After about three breaths of careful testing.

Li Qianqing already understood.

Li Yongfeng really is a soul-devouring body!
After listening to Li Qinghong's explanation, Li Qianqing had four guesses in his mind. Among them, the possibility that Li Yongfeng was the Soul-Devouring Body was the greatest. After this test, it was true that the Demon-Swallowing Boy was also a cultivator with a special physique, the Soul-Devouring Body.

In addition, with the help of some means, he also tested Li Yongfeng's spiritual roots.

Dual spiritual roots of water and fire!
With dual spiritual roots and a soul-devouring body, Li Yongfeng will automatically become the Dan-forming seed in the family after he successfully builds his foundation.

"I already know the situation. Yongfeng is a dual spiritual root cultivator with a special physique. You take him down first." Li Qianqing said to Li Qinghong.

"Yes."

As expected, it still depends on the ancestor. He can tell it with just one test. As for what kind of special physique Li Yongfeng has, the ancestor didn't say, and Li Qinghong didn't ask. She couldn't even understand this. Even if the ancestor said something about his special physique, she might not understand it.

"Demon Devouring Boy..."

Li Qianqing thought about it and quickly took out a sound transmission talisman.

He decided to contact the Demon Devouring Boy. After this sound transmission note was sent, the Demon Devouring Boy would definitely appear in front of him as quickly as possible unless he was in seclusion practicing. (End of this chapter)
