Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 1039: Chapter 1033: Dao Paths

“We can’t meddle in other matters; the most urgent task is to drag out Yun Hongcai.”

Seeing Li Xinnian’s frightened appearance, Li Yunbing laughed secretly.

Back when Kuanghua and the others were in the Thunder Fire Demon Cave, they were also badly frightened by him.

Thinking of the juniors, Li Yunbing’s expression turned solemn. “And bring back Kuanghua.”

“The Old Ancestor is protecting Kuanghua.”

Li Tianqi said in a deep voice, “It’s just that the Lotus Ferry Nunnery is truly too hidden.

They spread their faith in the mortal world. The disciples of the Lotus Ferry Nunnery appeared out of nowhere in the world, scattered everywhere.

The only thing we know is that a total of 180,000 nuns walked out from the Lotus Ferry Nunnery, starting from the Shadowfell Prefecture, wandering as ascetics in all directions, and building Buddhist temples one after another.”

“Even with Soul Searching, we can’t find any memories regarding the location of the Lotus Ferry Nunnery from any of their minds.”

Li Changyao said, “On the contrary, we’ve already grasped a lot of intelligence regarding Yun Hongcai and his two friends.

This was also obtained from the case files of the Immortal Suppression Division.”

“Back when Yun Hongcai was out gaining experience and roaming the world, the entire Yun Clan relied on his thievery to accumulate their foundation and become an immortal clan in the Shadowfell Prefecture.”

“In those days, whenever someone was careless, their treasures would be stolen by Yun Hongcai, who was at the Nascent Soul realm.

Wherever secret realms or the ruins of ancient cultivators were opened across the land, Yun Hongcai’s figure could be seen, reaping the spoils without lifting a finger.”

“Being able to do all this was also largely thanks to his gang of scoundrel friends.”

Li Changyao channeled her Spiritual power, and two portraits appeared before her: a bearded man and an enchanting woman.

The information of these two entered everyone’s eyes.

“Assassin, Gou Shu.

After this person reached Void Refinement, he discarded his name. The world calls him Heavenly Venerable Jiande.

He once acted together with Yun Hongcai, specializing in doing things to attract others’ attention, like murder and arson, plotting the grand scheme to create favorable conditions for Yun Hongcai to steal.”

“Over these past few decades, Heavenly Venerable Jiande has been working for the secluded Yun Hongcai, secretly stealing the treasures of the two cities.”

She pointed at the woman in the other portrait.

“Fairy Tinglan, born in a cultivator’s pleasure house.

This woman cultivated a mastery of illusion arts, charm arts, and disguise arts.

I heard that many female cultivators work for her, hiding within various factions to provide her with intelligence. She is also the source of intelligence among the three of them.”

“The three of them helped each other. Back in the day, even with mediocre aptitude, they used these methods to step by step reach the Nascent Soul, Divinity Transformation, and even the current Void Refinement realm.”

“But starting fifty thousand years ago, the dynasty was already under the control of factions like the Immortal Suppression Division.

Divinity Transformation cultivators couldn’t show themselves, and Void Refinement cultivators went into hiding.

The three of them were noticed by the Immortal Suppression Division and had to hide their names and identities.”

“Now, all three of them are nearing the end of their lifespans. To seek a Dao path for breakthrough, they will only be even crazier than before.”

The clan members carefully reviewed the intelligence on the three, all frowning.

Especially Li Tianqi. The things these three did, he was familiar with.

It was somewhat similar to what he and his two brothers did back in the day, although there were differences.

His three brothers mostly dug up people’s ancestral graves or robbed them directly.

Thinking for a moment—peers understand peers—Li Tianqi said,

“They won’t leave Deston Prefecture. Deston Prefecture is where the opportunities lie, especially the war between humans and the Wu tribe.

It’s the perfect time for them to snatch opportunities. For people like them, whether it’s the Wu tribe or their own compatriots, they won’t hesitate to strike.”

The clan members looked at Li Tianqi with strange expressions.

Li Tianqi, thick-skinned, continued without a change in expression,

“They are nearing the end of their lifespans, but the more it’s like this, the calmer they will be.

Since Yun Hongcai is stealing the supplies of the two cities, and he is at the Half-step Body Integration realm, if he wanted to break through, he would have done so long ago.

Once he reaches Body Integration, he wouldn’t act so cautiously. So I guess he probably hasn’t reached the Dao Glimpsing stage yet.”

“Then the logistical supplies of the two cities…” Li Changyao couldn’t help but admire Li Tianqi’s professionalism.

Li Tianqi said in a deep voice,

“He stole them for Fairy Tinglan and Heavenly Venerable Jiande.

Those two are at the limit of the Void Refinement realm. Usually, people like them help each other the most because they know that without any one of them, it would be extremely difficult to coordinate their actions.

For them, balance is also very important. Only in this way can they avoid being jealous of each other and trust each other with their backs.”

“Then, they will find a Dao path for Yun Hongcai. Only then can they grow together.”

“So they will definitely target a certain faction or a certain person in Deston Prefecture, seeking an opportunity from them.

Thus, as long as we find the Dao path Yun Hongcai wants to break through to, we can find them.”

The clan members fell silent.

The experts of the world all hide the Dao within them.

Apart from their closest confidants, rarely does anyone know their Dao path, unless it’s an expert like Ba Siyu, who had already revealed his trump cards long ago.

However, they were pursuing a different realm. It was also to avoid being plotted against by petty people and to keep trump cards in reserve.

The Body Integration realm is strong, but not impossible to deal with.

Back then, the clan and the Zhao Clan joined forces to exterminate the Zhao Clan’s Old Ancestor.

With their current cultivation base, they also understood that the Zhao Clan’s Old Ancestor was hard to kill because the other party was already at the Dao Integration stage, even Half-step Mahayana.

As long as there are enough Void Refinement experts, they have the power to fight a Half-step Body Integration cultivator.

Coupled with the existence of the Old Ancestor, let alone a Half-step Body Integration, even a Dao Glimpsing realm mighty figure, they would dare to challenge.

The only trouble was that Yun Hongcai knew how to hide, and so did the Lotus Ferry Nunnery.

“If Yun Hongcai’s Dao path was devouring Spiritual power or eating people, he would have broken through to Dao Glimpsing long ago.” Li Yunbing said in a deep voice.

“The last time we met in the Ancestral Space, Father said that the Sword Venerable tried to break through four times, and all four times someone had already occupied the Dao.

Perhaps Yun Hongcai also tried to break through, but that Dao was already occupied by someone else. Then his Dao is…”

Hearing this, the clan members looked at each other. Thinking of Yun Hongcai’s constant thievery, their eyes all widened.

“It’s stealing!”

“Using stealing as his Dao. Stealing supplies… what else does he want to steal?”

“Stealing people!”

In the Ancestral Space, seeing his descendants gradually gaining comprehension of the “Dao,” Li Wei nodded in gratification.

At this time, whether it was him or Li Dalong in the Netherworld, they were both slowly gaining comprehension in the direction of the “Dao.”

Li Yaoqing’s pills, distributed one after another, had long since allowed their cultivation bases to reach the peak of the Void Refinement realm.

Li Wei began to examine the “Traits” of his descendants’ entire lives, gradually gaining many insights.

Perhaps these were exactly everyone’s Dao paths.

In the purgatory lava lands of the Netherworld, Li Dalong had already entered Hell Layer II: The Rending Vows.

In hell, Li Dalong sat cross-legged.

Xu Cuihua, transformed into a nine-tailed demon fox, sat cross-legged beside him.

On Li Dalong’s body, his traits lined up in a row.

[Working Hard to Improve], [Wild Boar Killer], [The Hope of the Entire Village], [Late Bloomer]… all the way to his later [Heaven-Piercing Coffin Corpse Driver], [Half-Zombie], and [Lord of the Blood Sea].

Weren’t these traits the very “Dao” that Li Dalong had walked throughout his life?
