[Your descendant Li Xinri has just entered the cultivation world and was captured by the Heavenly Mountain as a spy.
Later, after the Heavenly Mountain sent a message to verify his identity, he was freed and acquired a new identity: Outer Sect Disciple of the Heavenly Mountain.]
[Three months into his stay at the Heavenly Mountain, an unknown cultivator within his cultivation Dao Field constantly teased him in secret using Dao methods.
Acquired Trait: Sixth Sense.]
[Having been targeted for centuries, and suffering daily for three months at the Heavenly Mountain, his sensitivity to danger increases by 20%.]
"The brat joined the Heavenly Mountain?"
Li Wei raised an eyebrow slightly at Li Yaoqing's alchemy site and instantly manifested at the Heavenly Mountain.
This kid, Li Xinri, had run away from home. If it weren't for the Heavenly Mountain sending a message, absolutely no one in the family would have known.
After all, Li Xinri loved digging holes and hiding himself like a mole; those who didn't know better would think he was just playing hide-and-seek again.
Li Wei also knew a bit about the Heavenly Mountain.
It was an immortal mountain that appeared in Greenpeak Prefecture several centuries ago.
This hidden faction was incredibly mysterious.
The first time they made a name for themselves in the world was when one of their disciples was caught stealing from the imperial treasury in the Imperial Capital.
The sect's ancestor, fiercely protective of his disciples, personally took a trip to the Imperial Capital.
Merely by releasing his divine sense, he openly walked into the Heavenly Prison and casually brought the person out.
Was there anyone the Department of Immortal Suppression hadn't arrested? Yet, upon seeing this ancestor, they didn't even dare to let out a fart.
The family had investigated a bit, only finding out that the Heavenly Mountain's ancestor, Zhang Heng, was an ancient veteran who had fought against the Wu Tribe and Demon Race alongside Human Race experts back before the Imperial Dynasty was even founded.
No one knew exactly how terrifyingly formidable the Heavenly Mountain Ancestor Zhang Heng was.
They only knew that the Heavenly Mountain acted like shameless scoundrels.
Other places might listen to reason, but with them, if you hit their young, the old would come, and then the even older ones would come, in an endless stream.
Others treated people from the Heavenly Mountain like a plague—avoiding them as far away as possible.
"This kid Xinri really knows how to pick a spot."
Li Wei waved his hand dismissively. Li Xinri was truly a playboy. Normally, cultivators hid themselves to cultivate out of deep fear, but his seniority in the family was high, and he was a clever little rascal.
He had Li Yaotie completely wrapped around his finger, so absolutely no one could discipline him.
Although the Heavenly Mountain had a notorious reputation, they were actually quite skilled at teaching.
As for the outer sect disciples of the Heavenly Mountain, they were not taught the Heavenly Mountain's core secret methods, regardless of their cultivation realm.
Just as he was pondering this...
"Who is it? Which senior is teasing this junior? If this junior has done anything wrong, at least say something, Senior!"
Cultivating in the courtyard, Li Xinri suddenly transformed into a Golden Crow and leaped frantically up.
A vicious ice spike had just shot up from the exact spot where he had been sitting.
Arriving at the Heavenly Mountain, Li Xinri was no longer mischievous and acted quite politely.
It seemed he also understood the profound principle that when one is far from home, one must desperately temper their behavior.
Li Xinri couldn't find the person teasing him from behind the scenes, but Li Wei could see perfectly clearly.
He shifted his shape and changed his shadow to track the source, but upon seeing the figures, he was completely bewildered.
"Huh?"
There were two people sitting at the peak of the Heavenly Mountain.
One was a child-like boy sitting cross-legged on a lotus platform. Although he had the body of a young child, he exuded a heavy aura of ancient age from head to toe.
If he guessed correctly, this was the Heavenly Mountain Ancestor, Zhang Heng.
The other person... was actually an old acquaintance of the Li family, the old sect master of the Skyveil Sect who had been missing for many years, Daoist Jiuyou!
"How could he be here?" Li Wei opened his mouth in sheer surprise.
Back when the Wu Tribe attacked, Daoist Jiuyou had gone to the Imperial Capital to seek reinforcements, but was severely injured and completely disappeared.
Later, the family had been searching for him continuously, and Li Yunlin had gone nearly mad looking everywhere.
The sect master of the Black Tortoise Sect was still deeply thinking of him on his deathbed.
Who would have thought that today, centuries later, they would find this wanderer far from home safely at the Heavenly Mountain.
"That's not right. If he's still alive, why hasn't he gone to see Yunlin?" Li Wei frowned deeply.
Back when the Zhao Clan was around, a mysterious faction had brazenly stolen from every family and clan in the Duravia Trade Prefecture, and later these exact items were delivered to where Li Yunlin and Fairy Hongxiu were.
This penchant for stealing shared a striking resemblance to the outrageous act of robbing the imperial treasury.
Amidst this heavy doubt, he saw Zhang Heng casually wave his hand.
Through the mist before their eyes was the scene of Li Xinri cultivating diligently.
This casual move gave Li Wei a slight start. He could do it too, but to remotely tease a peak Divinity Transformation cultivator without showing any trace of his aura was something far beyond his current capabilities.
Seeing Li Xinri nervously sit back down, the Heavenly Mountain Ancestral Master Zhang Heng showed a flash of appreciation in his ancient eyes.
"Aside from being a bit mischievous, this child is quite moldable. In just three short months, he is already able to dodge my sneak attacks."
"I didn't expect a descendant of the Li Clan to end up studying at our Heavenly Mountain after all."
Jiuyou Daoist sighed softly.
He used to only be at the Nascent Soul realm, but now he had reached the peak of the Divinity Transformation realm, Half-Step Void Refinement.
However, with an ancestral master like this around, considering his relatively 'young' age, this was quite a normal occurrence.
A trace of deep worry flashed through his eyes.
"The terrifying Blood Moon of the Western Frontier is coming to Azure Cloud Prefecture. I wonder how the Southern Frontier will cope."
Zhang Heng smiled faintly.
"The people of the world have their own worldly affairs. The ancient land of Azure Cloud Prefecture has its terrifying disasters, but it also has its profound countermeasures.
It's utterly useless for you to worry so much. We might as well focus purely on nurturing Li Xinri and plan carefully from there."
"It's just that it's somewhat inappropriate for a living person like him to cultivate in our Heavenly Mountain," Jiuyou smiled bitterly.
"It's best not to let him find out. As long as he doesn't enter the inner sect, with you here, Ancestral Master, he should be perfectly fine."
