Spried and autumn arrived.

  [Year 137]

  This time, Li Wei emerged from the earth, and the Li family had growronger.

  Li Wei walked around the family's residence. Four years had passed, and the Thunder Fme Fury Python and the members still hadn't returned. Breaking through to the Soul stage wasn't that simple. Even in the best location for undergoing tribution, there were still dangers. They also o set up formations to resist the heavenly tribution.

  A ret message also indicated that they were safe and sound.

  [Your desdant Li Kuanghua, in Coldstone Valley, is being tempered by the power of the earth and the power of id rock. With the help of the Thunder Fme Fury Python and Xuan Tianzi, she has acquired a special physique: the Ice Rock Body.]

  [Her body has bee sturdier. Utilizing the Ice Rock Body, she use the power of id rock to defend against enemies. stitution increased by 50%, strength increased by 10%.]

  The younger members of the family were also still diligently cultivating.

  Li Wei walked towards where Li Dalong was.

  [Your desdant Li Dalong, after accumuting for a long time, attempted to break through to the level of the Heaven-Pierg Coffin. Though he couldn't reach the deepest part of the third level, his persistent efforts over many years have made his spiritual power and foundation increasingly solid. His speed in digesting elixirs and medial ingredients has also bee faster. The eighth-grade Blood Spirit Fruit has further enhanced his spiritual roots, allowing him to break through to the peak of the Golden Core stage!]

  Li Dalong definitely had the most solid foundation in the family. He had mastered all of the family's powerful teiques and martial arts, and he had practiced them to the deepest level within the Heaven-Pierg Coffin. Even his Dharma Body was the most densed.

  Li Wei had oched Li Dalong fight. It seemed unremarkable at first, but in the end, his oppos would always discover that Li Dalong had very few openings. Moreover, as time went on, they would be gradually worn down and exhausted to death by Li Dalong.

  This guy is a true all-rounder.

  Ihe Heaven-Pierg Coffin, there were also the Seven Irond Li Yaozu.

  By now, the Seven Ironcd had abaheir beloved rge ons and picked up swords. The ground iled with sword manuals that Li Yaozu had found over the years. The Seven Ironcd would then go and practice their swordsmanship. After a few days, they would return with bitter expressions, carrying their swords, and practice with Li Yaozu.

  [Your desdant Li Yaozu, in order to motivate the younger geion to cultivate, is instrug the Seven Iron swordsmanship. He has assighem difficult training tasks, making each of them master a new sword teique every seven days and then spar with him. If they lose, they must tio fight him until they win, thereby encing the Seven Ironcd's spirit of perseverance.]

  [After many years of cultivation, Li Yaozu has broken through to the middle stage of the Golden Core. His Sword Core is approag perfe, and he is currently refining the supreme-grade spirit artifact, the Heavenly Star Sword, into his Intrinsic (life-bound) Spirit Artifact.]

  [Your desdants, the Seven Ironcd, after many years of practig swordsmanship, have gained siderable insights into sword teiques. They are deeply grateful to Li Yaozu. They have acquired the trait: Sword Hater.]

  [When they see sword cultivators, their hostility increases by 30%. When fag sword cultivators, their bat power increases by 80%!]

  "Ahem..."

  Watg Li Yundou's bitter expression, pletely devoid of the fearsomeness he dispyed outside, as he walked towards Li Yaozu with his sword, Li Wei coughed lightly. It was better not to see such a toug se.

  Afterward, Li Wei emerged from the Heaven-Pierg Coffin and looked at the earth and wood energy within his dantian. He frowned, "The power of the five elements of Heaven ah should be enough for me to break through to the Soul stage, right? , I'll go to Yaotie to sehe power of metal."

  Soon, Li Wei arrived at the Thunderfire Demon Cave.

  He saw that fellow Li Yaotie still f. Li Kuanghua was the only body cultivator in the family, but in fact, disregarding his identity as the aor of spirit puppets, Li Wei felt that Li Yaotie was more like a body cultivator...

  This big bald guy's hammer was getting bigger and heavier, and his physique was also being increasingly massive. It was roughly like an ordinary person wielding an excavator's shovel te tools.

  "Huh?"

  As soon as he saw Li Yaotie, Li Wei was stuhis guy... inally only his left arm was silver, but now his right arm had also turned silver!

  [As his strength grew ever greater and the metals he fed became increasingly harder, your desdant Li Yaotie fed a right arm to match his left. He was astoo discover that, with the impntation of the right arm, he found the meridians eg his two arms. The spiritual power stored in his body became even more abundant, allowing him to break through to the middle stage of the Golden Core!]

  [Acquired Trait: Spirit Artifact Body!]

  [His body will be more patible with spirit artifacts and more adept at trolling them. Each spirit artifact will be able to unleash greater power on his body than through mere spiritual trol. Moreover, he will be able to trol multiple spirit artifacts simultaneously!]

  It had no elemental attributes, but Li Wei felt that this trait was terrifying. To be able to use multiple spirit artifacts simultaneously... You have to uand, that using even one spirit artifact requires unig with it through one's spiritual power and spiritual sense. Being able to use two or three at the same time is already quite difficult.

  Li Wei imagihe se of a dozen, or even hundreds, of spirit artifacts appearing behind Li Yaotie... How desperate would his oppos be?

  While he this, Li Wei saw Li Yaotie suddenly stop f. This guy was stroking his big bald head, staring ily at his own legs. "My arms are powerful now. Even someo the peak of the Golden Core stage wouldn't dare to take a direct hit from my hammer. What I ck is speed and stamina. If I added materials with wind element to my legs, and also materials with earth element to absorb spiritual energy from the earth..."

  "Tsk, tsk."

  The more he spoke, the brighter Li Yaotie's eyes became. He excitedly ran towards the Heaven-Pierg Coffin, "Dad, Mom, hahaha, I've got an idea! I'm going to y legs! Quick, give me the materials!"

  Watg Li Yaotie's retreating figure and hearing his shouts, as well as seeing Bai Rourou, who had run out with a furious and scolding expression.

  Li Wei scratched his head bnkly.

  Sometimes, even being an aor feels quite helpless, because the desdants are very strange.

  Thinking about that guy Li Yaotie, who had actually severed his own arm and was now pnning to cut off his own legs, all while grinning foolishly, Li Wei couldn't help but feel a chill. He decided to stop thinking about it altogether and sat down cross-legged on the spot, trating on prehending the ws of metal and fire, while also keeping an eye on the light blue s in front of him.
