Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 136: Death-Sealing Golden Core Inheritance

[Year 79th]

The sky was clear and bright. The Blood Spirit Fruit Tree had reached thirty meters in height, and many spirit beasts from the Silver Iron Forest were leaping on its thick branches.

As the roots of the Blood Spirit Fruit Tree spread further and further, the Silver Iron Forest and the Li family had become inseparable. Even the Pig Demon King could transform into a smaller form to enter the Li family estate.

Beneath the tree, numerous Li family members were meditating and cultivating, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

A wall inscribed with formations had been erected around the area, which had become the Li familyʼs most confidential location.

But they all failed to notice their ancestor, his face numb with the passage of time.

”Fifteen years... Heaven knows how Iʼve endured it. If it werenʼt for these descendants by my side, I would have gone mad!”

Li Wei rubbed his head vigorously. He truly couldnʼt comprehend how those who entered secluded cultivation for centuries managed to endure it.

He deeply missed the days of sitting in front of his computer screen, playing games. He also missed the braised pork made by Yuexian. Although he knew that only 15 hours had passed in the real world, he still felt utterly alone.

Li Wei stretched languidly.

The fire still burned within his dantian. He estimated that it would take a few more years to fully complete the inscription of the cultivation technique onto his Golden Core.

Just then, a voice rang out beside him. The Heaven-Piercing Coffin suddenly sprang open, and Li Dalong, disheveled and unkempt, crawled out of the coffin.

By now, Li Dalong was 99 years old, yet he still retained the appearance of a kind and honest middle-aged man. The passage of time had only made him seem more composed. But at this moment, he appeared almost crazed, laughing uncontrollably, startling the surrounding cultivators from their meditation.

”Hahaha, Ancestor, Dalong has done it! The second seal of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, through repeated deaths, your child has unlocked it!”

”What?!”

As everyone excitedly gathered around Li Dalong, Li Wei also joined the crowd.

He was equally elated. The Heaven-Piercing Coffin was undoubtedly the Li familyʼs most precious treasure. Just the first seal alone granted the ability to refine corpses and flying corpses, allowing the Li family descendants to reach a high level of mastery in techniques and martial skills without years of arduous cultivation.

Over the years, Li Wei had watched as one Li family member after another entered the coffin, each emerging with enhanced combat abilities.

Then, a pale blue screen appeared before the Heaven-Piercing Coffin.

Entering the game world through [Ancestral Time] provided a complete VR Godʼs Eye View experience.

[Your descendant, Li Dalong, has reached the end of the second seal of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin.]

[He has obtained the identity of the second-level Coffin Master!!]

[He has received an inheritance left by the previous master, Shen Wu—]

[Death-Sealing Golden Core Inheritance]

”Holy... shit.”

Li Weiʼs facial muscles twitched violently. Watching Li Dalong interacting with his family, Li Wei felt a surge of envy. ”If I had known that the second seal of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin contained this inheritance, why would I have bothered painstakingly tempering my own Golden Core?!”

[Death-Sealing Golden Core Inheritance]

[The inheritor will have their False Core continuously nurtured by the power of the Heavenly Coffin, naturally forming a Heaven-grade Golden Core. The Death-Sealing Golden Core possesses the Heavenly Destiny Divine Ability, granting three lives. The cultivator can form three Golden Cores in their lifetime, two of which can be stored elsewhere. As long as a Golden Core remains, the cultivator can reconstruct their body and revive!]

[Contains a Profound-grade technique—Soul-Summoning Heavenly Disaster Formation]

[Utilizes the souls of the deceased to form a powerful formation, commanding the souls of the dead in battle.]

In other words, Li Dalong didnʼt need to do anything. He could simply lie in the coffin and be passively nurtured by its power until he naturally formed a Heaven-grade Golden Core with extraordinary abilities!

Li Dalong had instantly become the strongest fighter in the Li family, possessing three lives!

”Well, it seems our Li family will soon have a Golden Core cultivator.”

Li Wei grinned.

It was just a fleeting moment of envy. After fifteen years of cultivation and tempering, his Golden Core would be even stronger than this Heaven-grade Golden Core!

As the familyʼs excitement subsided, Li Yunbing smiled and said, ”Thatʼs wonderful, Grandfather. Once you become a Golden Core cultivator, our family will truly become a Golden Core clan.”

Li Wei looked at Li Yunbing, who was now 49 years old.

Time truly was a butcherʼs knife. He still remembered when Li Yunbing was just a naive little child, repeatedly deceived by others. His innocent heart had made him a fool for a long time. Even when he succeeded as the head of the family, he was still a youthful hero, his growing wisdom unable to mask his naive and innocent gaze.

But now, Li Yunbing, burdened by his responsibilities, had gradually neglected his cultivation. Even with the extraordinary phenomena caused by Li Weiʼs impending breakthrough to the Golden Core stage, he had only managed to reach the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment a few years ago.

The years had swept away the naivety in his expression, replaced by an unwavering calmness. His once youthful face now bore the marks of middle age, with a long goatee and wrinkles etched onto his skin. Strands of silver glinted amongst his neatly tied long hair.

He actually looked older than Li Dalong and Xu Cuihua, who were nearing a hundred years old.

This young man toiled day after day, constantly running around for the sake of the Li family, bearing the weight of their every worry and hardship.
