A Bright Lineage

In the last years of Beishuo, Xianmen occupied the mountain and the dynasty was about to fall. Ordinary people are like grass, and lower cultivators are nothing more than miners, blood guides, and pathfinding stones in the eyes of superior cultivators. At the foot of Black Mountain, the Li family had only twenty-one people and a few acres of thin farmland. When a fairy passed by, their livelihood was almost cut off. Starting from an incomplete fetal breath method and an inherited treasure of unknown origin, several generations of the Li family opened mountains, convinced people, built foundations, and sought the Purple Mansion. Some people died on the mountainside, some were trapped in the military formation, and some spent their lives to help those who came after them to enter the country; different sects walked side by side, mortals and monks each kept their place - where this generation could not go, the road was paved for the next generation. But when the Li family finally grew up from chess pieces to chess players, they saw clearly: the rise and fall of dynasties, the replacement of immortal clans, and even every road to immortality in the world had already been advanced. In the old world, there was no way, and all living beings could be used as materials. If such a world is not worthy of future generations continuing to live, then what generations of Li family seek is not just immortality. This is a novel about family portraits and immortality. It writes about how a small ordinary tribe survives and grows in the gap between the immortal sect and the dynasty; it also writes about the mission of each generation. The predecessors sacrificed their lives to pave the way, and the descendants carry lanterns and travel far.
