My Descendants Are My Power

Just the thought of it sent shivers down Ethan's spine.

Three months quickly passed in the game world.

Ethan had been closely monitoring his family's progress. As they reached the pinnacle of Azure Cloud, the Blackwoods found themselves increasingly busy handling various matters.

With no external threats in Cloudview County, the family members were busier than ever. They hadn't had time to cultivate their psychic powers in three months, caught up in the whirlwind of activities at home. After all, Gratitude Village now stood at the peak of Cloudview County.

Over the years, they hadn't paid much attention, but when the dust settled, they realized they had amassed a variety of powers and territories. Even they were unaware of the full extent of Blackwood's influence...

One problem after another began to surface.

Gratitude Village, having survived the war, became one of the most intact places in all of Cloudview County. It was especially coveted for its Grade 8 psychic vein, abundant in psychic energy, making it a desirable location for Psychics to settle down.

Your descendant Daniel captured a White Druid and used magic to summon a parade of ghosts within a hundred miles of Gratitude Village, scaring away any approaching Psychics.

Tensions between the dark Psychics and the righteous ones in Gratitude Village were on the rise. Due to Blackwood's influence, they dared not kill each other and only dared to duel under the cover of night. In one instance, the dark Psychics controlled beasts to defecate outside the Demon Hunters Alliance, forcing every household in Gratitude Village to join in cleaning up the mess.

Daniel decided to send most of the people from both sides back to the Thunderfire Demon Cave.

Your descendant Nathan reported to you that in Olivia's absence, the Dawn assassins fell into disarray. They couldn't secure external contracts and were secretly tempted by the offers from both the dark and righteous Psychics. They took to the streets of Gratitude Village, asking everyone they met if they had any enemies outside...

Nathan decided to send the Dawn to establish branches in major towns throughout Cloudview County. Blackwood reopened the Heavenly Justice Hall, ostensibly a general goods business, but secretly accepting assassination contracts.

Nathan decided to help them establish power bases in various towns after Blackwood had depleted the family's hundred-year reserve of psychic rice, consuming vast resources in the process.

With a million beasts in the Silver Iron Forest running out of food and starting to kill each other, your descendant Luna decided to have each household in Gratitude Village adopt a beast.

...

Three months later, Gratitude Village returned to its peaceful state, with the villagers celebrating the departure of mischievous demon cultivators, righteous Psychics, and numerous assassins by beating drums and striking gongs.

Inside the Forebearer Shrine, the people of Blackwood looked listless, who knows what they had endured over these three months? They also realized that, without noticing, Blackwood's influence had grown to an extent they had never imagined before!

"This is Blackwood now!"

Ethan's eyes sparkled as he opened the map. Now, the family's influence was flourishing in Cloudview County. Every county town had Blackwood's subsidiary forces stationed, and the entire Cloudview County was just as he had hoped—no longer any red, only green and white!

Every town and county had a Blackwood family business, 'Heavenly Justice Hall,' specializing in dealing with second-hand traders and selling items needed by Psychics. Every shopkeeper and assistant came from Gratitude Village.

For this, Ethan even presented a "Service Industry Personnel Quality Cultivation Training Manual" at the grand ceremony of 160 years. Now, no matter the level of the Psychic, entering Blackwood's Heavenly Justice Hall, one could see the standard smile of the Heavenly Justice Hall assistants and hear the friendly greeting, "Welcome!" Their service philosophy reached the pinnacle of Cloudview County.

Ethan could even imagine that in the days to come, the people of Blackwood could just sit at home and reap a fortune in Energy Stones, becoming wealthy!

[Your family, following the proposal of the people of Gratitude Village, has renamed Gratitude Village to—Glory City]

"Renamed, huh?"

Seeing this message, Ethan raised an eyebrow.

He zoomed in on the map, no wonder Gratitude Village was renamed.

The current Blackwood station was already different from before. After years of development by Nicholas, the city was divided into Blackwood's core areas, inner layers, and outer layers, all transformed by the Primordial blood trees, covered with stone bricks engraved with mysterious patterns.

The circular town gradually arched around the center, the walls getting higher towards the inside, resembling a cake.

More and more Psychics were appearing in Glory City, all developed from the original villagers of Gratitude Village, and they would continue to guard Glory City generation after generation.

On the outskirts were the silver-iron forests... Nowadays, many Druids captured in Glory City were changing the landscape outside the city every day, with mountains, trees, and lakes all under development.

Moreover, with Energy Stones still being piled up beneath Glory City, and various magical formations extracting special energies from nature, the natural energy here would become increasingly rich, turning this place into a true sacred land for cultivating psychic powers.

In the outer forests, the trees controlled by the Primordial blood tree would be the most loyal guards. Numerous Stone beasts buried underground could emerge at any moment to protect Blackwood. Various magical beasts in the forest were slowly adapting to the new environment, gradually becoming self-sufficient, even in the mountains and lakes.

Around Glory City, the foundations of magical formations were being established, with Glory City's Psychics guarding them every day, ready to activate the grand formation at any moment.

If an enemy were to invade, they would find it impenetrable!

[Your descendant Nathan reports to you that many forces on the borders of Cloudview County are once again requesting Blackwood to send masters to participate in the war against the Druids.]

Proud of the current prosperity of Glory City, the message in the event column shifted Ethan's view back to the Forebearer Shrine.

There, Nathan knelt towards the Psychic Position, "Forebearer, we receive pleas for help from various forces almost every day, and I'm unsure whether we should assist."

Hearing this, Ethan pondered for a moment.

He then clicked on the icon of the Exploding Sky Serpent, who was currently wrestling with Donnacultivating psychic powers. Upon hearing the news, it transformed into smoke and appeared, its dragon head visible in the smoke form. As Ethan tapped the keyboard, it spoke, "Master says he wants to hear your opinions."

"Yes!"

At this moment, in the Forebearer Shrine, many of Blackwood's children at home were kneeling.

As everyone looked towards Daniel, he spoke solemnly, "Forebearer, I believe this battle is necessary. Currently, the entire Cloudview County is lacking resources, and it is the same for us, Blackwood."
