Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 44: Breaking the Blockade and Resource Trading

It's time for the game world to freeze. In the harsh winter of the drought year, there was no snow, only biting winds and parched earth.

The Chen family and others had been sent back to Tailin Town and within a few days returned to Green Valley Village, bringing with them a lot of resources.

This time, Chen Chuang still continued to lead the Chen family team, currently engaged in trade with Li Yaozu and Li Yaowen.

The trust forged between them was solidified after Li Yaozu's group rescued Chen Chuang previously, prompting the Chen family to bring resources directly to them.

[Your family is trading with the Chen family.]

[Obtained a large amount of 'Aurum Root']

[Obtained a large amount of 'Black Brilliance Essence']

[Obtained...]

Looking at these traded things, Li Wei was overjoyed.

Time passed very quickly in the game. In the past thirty years, it was extremely important for the Li family to have the power to protect the development of the family.

But as the family develops, the importance of resources also begins to increase!

Li Yaoqing had hit a bottleneck in her medicine refining progress. She could obtain cultivated herbs from the Silver Iron Forest but there were only four kinds of medicines that could be refined from the "Thousand Herbs Classic".

The 'Blood Coagulation Powder' for treating injuries, the 'Body Training Powder' for cultivators below the fifth level of the Qi Refining Stage, the 'Seven Flavor Elixir' to hasten spiritual energy absorption for cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, and the 'Ghost Potion', which clotted blood on contact.

Trading herbs proved immensely valuable.

With the 'Aurum Root' from the Chen family, combined with Li family herbs, Li Yaoqing could refine the powerful 'Golden Spirit Elixir'. This elixir could enhance metallic spiritual roots by 1-8 points. This was also the most powerful medicine among the easily refined medicines in the "Thousand Herbs Classic".

The Chen family also owned two mines.

Among them, the Obsidian Mine yielded black stones every five years, which was also the Chen family's heritage.

Paving the ground with obsidian crystals could create a meditation room where cultivators could meditate in it which would enhance their cultivation speed by half.

The Moon Stone a spiritual stone, used to forge spiritual weapons through inlaying, It could enhance the power of the spiritual weapon to a certain extent and save the spiritual energy consumed when using the spiritual weapon.

"Hmph, I knew the Hu family and the Wang family were slandering you guys, but your Li family has proven trustworthy."

In the game, the two parties were trading, and Li Wei saw the small words above Chen Chuang's head. It was obvious that Chen Chuang was very satisfied with this transaction. "Please rest assured, from now on, you are our Chen family's partners. Your pharmacists' elixirs and spiritual weapons made by the weapon refiners can be traded with other towns through us."

Of course.

Li Wei could see that the Chen family's happiness stemmed not only from the Li family's reliability but also from the presence of Li Yaoqing and Li Yaotie, both renowned as ninth-rank professionals. Despite being only ninth-rank, they were popular wherever they went.

After the Chen family departed, jubilation swept through the Li family.

"This is great. Trading with the Chen family means we can acquire various resources and finally break free from Tailin Town's blockade. I can make Golden Spirit Elixir now, As long as we cooperate with the Chen family again, I can make more Elixir!" Li Yaoqing seemed to be so excited only when she was refining medicine.

"And the Black Brilliance Crystals the Chen family sold us can build a practice room for a hundred people. Leave that to me," added Li Yaotie, licking his lips. "As for the Moon Stone, hand over your spiritual weapon. I'll refurbish it for you. Brother, you should test it on your high-grade spiritual weapon."

"Sure, take it. I never quite got used to the Spirit Breath Sword anyway," replied Li Yaozu with a grin.

"Oh By the way Yaotie, don't forget about my 150 sets of Black Iron Beast Blood suits, Black Blood Bows, and Black Blood Swords. They'll be perfect for when we have our 150-person Qi Refining stage guard team. I've even thought of a name for them—Black Blood Hall!"

"150 sets? Brother, you're so greedy. These materials are enough for me to refine for several years. Just make sure we have enough black iron ore," 

"When we take the entire Tailin Town into our hands, everything will be at our fingertips."

Li Yaowen, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said something light and attracted the attention of her brothers and sisters.
But they had no doubt about Li Yaowen's methods.

Watching it all unfold on his screen, Li Wei harbored no doubts.

[Congratulations, your descendants have obtained a large amount of resources. They know that it was with your approval that Li Yaowen implemented the plan and concluded the deal with the Chen family. They admire you even more. ]

[Get incense +100! ]

In the following days.

The Li family had begun to develop in full swing again.

After the guard team received Li Yaozu's promise that they would be given spiritual weapons after they became cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, the members of the guard team began to practice crazily.

As the "Ancestral Spiritual Formation Diagram" gifted by Li Wei continued to be analyzed, Li Yaozu actually started gathering hundreds of villagers from Green Valley Village daily—to get tattoos!

These tattoos, crafted from a blend of Li family blood and various materials.

Li Wei saw villagers proudly marking themselves with the word 'Li'. Some opted for unconventional placements like their chests or even buttocks.

It became clear that the initial step in completing the 'Ancestral Spiritual Formation Diagram' was to signify loyalty to the Li family through these tattoos. The core of this step is the blood of the Li family. In this way, when the territory is in crisis, the Li family can be the center, gathering everyone's strength!

The next, more complex step involved drawing a vast formation diagram across the Li family's territory—a task that would span many years.
Finally, when spring comes.

Anticipation grew among all Li family members, awaiting the birth of Li Yaozu's second child. When the baby's cry finally rang out, joy erupted throughout the community."

[Qu Xiaoxiao was pregnant for ten months and successfully gave birth to a son, named Li Yunbing! ]

[Congratulations, you got +10 incense! ]
