    <strong>Chapter 22: zing Ahead</strong>


    Since arriving in this world, Li Su encountered two instances where spiritual stone mines were discovered. The first time was ten years after his arrival, and it took a considerable amount of time for the three major immortal sects to determine the distribution ratio of the spiritual stone mine. The second time was sixty years ago. In both cases, Li Su did not participate and instead focused on developing his own family and increasing the number of offspring.


    This time, Li Su was also not interested in joining themotion. While he could gain more spiritual stones by participating, he believed having more descendants was better. Unlike wandering cultivators, he received hundreds of spiritual stones each year, while wandering cultivators might risk their lives for spiritual stones and still not obtain many spiritual stones.


    So, when news spread about the spiritual stone mine, many wandering cultivators started taking action for spiritual stones.


    Li Su returned to the Li Mansion. “Li Family’s ancestor is going to marry an immortal again.” The news spread once more.


    Li Su was familiar with this situation. He knew ‘Su Yun’ the personal disciple of the Sect Leader, who came from the Flying Immortal Sect. Su Yun informed Li Su that a spiritual stone mine had been discovered in Mangkang Mountain, and their Master was preparing to take disciples there. They might have topete with two other sects and deal with demonic beasts.


    “Each disciple who participates can receive a substantial reward of spiritual stones. As a personal disciple of the Sect Leader, your reward will be even more generous. Our Master asked me to inform you that we can leave now if you decide to go.”


    Li Su considered the situation and realized that he had other responsibilities to handle in his family. He regretted that he would not be able to participate in it. He thanked Su Yun and also expressed his gratitude to the Sect Leader.


    After Su Yun left, Li Su returned to the Li Mansion. In the following months, Li Su married the female cultivators with whom he had previously formed rtionships during the wandering cultivator’s gathering. With each “immortal wife” he married, the poption of the Li family increased, and the number of his ordinary women decreased aspared to his immortal wives.


    As the number of Li Su’s “immortal wives” grew, the poption of the Li family continued to increase. Although, the rewards decrease after a few generations, the continuous birth of descendants lead to significant growth in cultivation.


    During this time, Li Su also received a visitor from the Flying Immortal Sect, bringing news from the Sect Leader. The visitor informed Li Su that the three major immortal sects were clearing out demonic beasts in Mangkang Mountain. The demonic beasts this time were said to be quite formidable, and the three sects had divided the areas without any disputes. Li Su was grateful for the information and focused on his family and responsibilities.


    Months passed, and the Li family weed another disciple from the Flying Immortal Sect, who brought a request from the Sect Leader. The Sect Leader wanted to ask Li Su for a favor.
