Chapter 139: Sword KingSoon, the grand Li family ritual of the 80th year passed. With the same offerings, the Li family now possessed 6 Beast Blood Fruit trees, and once again, 300 blood fruits were offered. Li Wei estimated that his room was now piled high with resources.
And this time, there was something special!
The Blood Spirit Fruit tree had finally blossomed and borne fruit. Its fruits were even larger. A total of 50 fruits, each the size of a fist, emanated a deep crimson color yet exuded an exceptionally sweet fragrance.
[Rank 8 Spirit Medicine: Blood Spirit Fruit]
[Each fruit contains 1500 points of spiritual energy. After consumption, there's a slight chance of increasing one's spirit root value by 1 point.]
"A divine object!"
Li Wei grinned. The Blood Spirit Fruit tree had finally bloomed, and the Blood Spirit Fruits it produced were incredibly potent. It was all about that 1 point increase in spirit root value!
Whether it was Li Wei's "Heaven's Secret Replenishing Pill" or Li Yaoqing's "Golden Spirit Elixir," along with the subsequently developed "Water Spirit Dew," "Earth Spirit Pellet," "Wood Spirit Elixir," and "Fire Spirit Liquid," each of these could only be consumed once in a lifetime.
However, Blood Spirit Fruit can be consumed without limit!
In other words, with enough Blood Spirit Fruits, even if the probability of increasing one's spirit root value was low, it was still possible to maximize one's spirit root. Of course, such extravagance was beyond Li Wei's imagination.
Time flew by.
At this point, Li Wei's Golden Core was nearing completion.
[Year 83rd]
Li Wei had started moving around, waiting for the Golden Core in his dantian to slowly finalize its formation.
The number of children in the Li family was steadily increasing. The "Seven Ironclad," those young lads, possessed a fertility that was practically unheard of. Their children seemed to inherit their fondness for procreation, marrying as soon as they reached adulthood.
However, their marriages were also due to Li Yunbing's urging, as he believed that only with a sufficient number of members could the Li family descendants fulfill the conditions for establishing branch families in various towns of the Sky Jade region.
The most delighted of all was the Pig Demon King.
Every day, it would carry children on its back, running around the Li family residence and the Silver Iron Forest.
"Why haven't I seen the Pig Demon King today?"
Li Wei frowned. It had been almost 20 years, and the one he had seen most often was the Pig Demon King. This renowned Demon King, day after day, year after year, was either transporting children between the two locations or on his way to do so.
However, he was a Demon King after all, and he must have his own matters to attend to. Being absent for a day was normal.
While he was pondering, a dark aura suddenly burst forth beside him, emanating from the "Heaven-Piercing Coffin."
From the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, he could sense that Li Dalong, that young man, was also close to forging his Spirit Core due to obtaining the Death-Sealing Golden Core Inheritance.
"Ying! Ying! Ying!"
While strolling through the Li family residence, observing the jade palaces and towering ten-meter walls, and witnessing the villagers of Green Valley Village tending to the spirit fields, Li Wei rejoiced at the family's growth. Suddenly, a series of sharp cries echoed from within the Silver Iron Forest.
Everyone in the Li family turned their gaze towards the Silver Iron Forest, and Li Wei also looked over.
In the sky, the shadow of a three-tailed fox appeared, a celestial phenomenon!
Li Wei's face lit up with joy, and he hurried over to observe.
Gazing into the distance, he saw a dense crowd of foxes forming a circle, seemingly in worship!
And at the very center was Xu Cuihua, Li Dalong's wife!
Xu Cuihua now appeared even more enchanting. Behind her, three fluffy fox tails, each about two meters long, had sprouted, swaying like a peacock displaying its plumage. She was making her final breakthrough with her hands forming mystical hand seals. Anyone who saw her would be captivated by her allure, radiating even from afar.
"Ah?"
Li Wei glanced toward the Blood Spirit Fruit tree. Li Dalong was still lying within the Heaven-Piercing Coffin. At this moment, he could sense how blissful Li Dalong's future would be.
"A fox demoness... You lucky lad, you're living the life of a King!" Li Wei was incredibly envious.

While offering blessings for the future happiness of Xu Cuihua and Li Dalong, Li Wei returned to meditate. He glanced at his Golden Core; it wouldn't be long, just a few days before he, too, would break through. The Li family was about to experience a surge in high-level power!
Moreover, the family's centennial celebration was approaching, and his skills would also advance to the next stage.
While pondering what he should give to the Li family upon his return...
"Clang!" (A sword's hum)
As the sword hummed, several sword-wielding descendants who were also meditating and cultivating near Li Wei found their swords inexplicably rising into the air, drawn by the resonating sound from the Silver Iron Forest. The tips of their swords all pointed towards the Sword Tomb within the forest!
"This is..."
A sword's shadow emerged above the Silver Iron Forest!
Within the Li family residence, all the swords soared into the air, their tips directed towards the Sword Tomb as if paying homage to the king of swords!
