Clan Cultivation: The Li Family of Tianchi Mountain

From an insignificant cultivation clan on Tianchi Mountain, to a top power governing spiritual veins across the globe, and finally to a mighty Mahayana cultivator who ascends after surviving tribulation, Li Feng's path to immortality has never been about looking after himself alone. Building his efforts around spiritual veins, he leads the Li family in studying their governance from the Foundation Establishment stage onward. They restore dying veins and establish ecological reserves, helping the family survive in an age of dwindling spiritual energy. At the Spirit Transformation stage, he ventures into the stars, finding new opportunities in three-colored and twin spiritual veins and building an interstellar spiritual vein network that raises the Li family to the status of “Guardians of the Interstellar Spiritual Veins.” Yet, when he reaches the peak of the Void Refinement stage, he resolutely returns to the roots of traditional cultivation. At the Body Integration stage, he withstands nine layers of heavenly lightning and overcomes a life-or-death tribulation through the family's unity and his steadfast Dao heart. This is not only the story of one cultivator's rise: from Nascent Soul to Spirit Transformation, from Void Refinement to Mahayana, every breakthrough brings a deeper understanding of “symbiosis with spiritual veins,” and every step forward depends on Li family cultivators fighting side by side. Lei Qian's lightning protection, the Third Elder's Nine Revolutions Tribulation-Passing Pill, and Chen Shikong's Nine Tribulations Protective Formation all bear witness to Li Feng's efforts to strengthen his clan through its spiritual veins. The family grows from 50 people to tens of thousands, its Nascent Soul cultivators from a mere handful to more than 50, and its spiritual vein mother nest transforms from an ordinary spirit field into a Mahayana-level spiritual vein hub. It is also an epic of the family's rise: from facing crises like dark-corrosion energy and the chaotic currents of the starry sky's origin, to resisting the covetous evil cultivators of Blackwind Valley; from symbiosis with star-core insects during interstellar exploration, to the entire clan protecting the Dao during tribulation; from establishing spiritual vein governance agreements to lead the alliance, to leaving behind a legacy for the family before ascending.
