Second Li Clan Nascent Soul Protector

The Second Li Clan Nascent Soul Protector is a catalog label for one of the two unnamed old protectors who accompany Li Daoyi to the eighth Blood Immortal Legacy tournament. The supplied text treats the pair collectively and does not provide a reliable feature that distinguishes this protector from the first.

Biography

Five-person delegation

The secretive Li Clan sends only five people to the Blood Immortal opening: two old Nascent Soul Dao Protectors and three Foundation Establishment Chosen. One protector is a tall, emaciated man in black who speaks about the patriarch's prophecy; the source does not state whether the catalog's “first” or “second” label belongs to him. To avoid inventing an identity, this page assigns no individual quotation or appearance detail to the second protector. (Chapter 120)

The delegation believes the eighth tournament is destined to fall to Li Daoyi. The protectors' role is to guard the three juniors outside the inaccessible matrixes, monitor progress through the blood screens, and preserve clan authority around a competition whose interior they cannot enter. Their presence also signals how unusually important Li Daoyi is despite the delegation's small size. (Chapters 120–124)

Confidence challenged

Li Daoyi's prepared Blood Dragon and early lead initially appear to confirm the prophecy. The two old protectors watch with confidence while other competitors fall behind. Meng Hao then crosses the fourth matrix in seven days, a record no previous tournament participant achieved. Frowns appear on both protectors' faces as the unknown cultivator becomes a genuine threat to the clan's certainty. (Chapter 126)

The pair remain with the Li Clan observers through the subsequent matrixes and the crisis surrounding Li Daoyi. The corpus does not separate their reactions consistently enough to attribute later decisions to this specific protector rather than his companion. (Chapters 127–130)

Appearance and personality

Both protectors are old men. The tall, emaciated black-robed description belongs to one of them, but the text does not identify which catalog entry it should map to. This protector therefore has no independently verified physical portrait.

Collectively, the pair are disciplined, confident in clan preparations, and capable of revising their threat assessment when Meng Hao breaks the record. Any finer personality distinction would exceed the source evidence.

Abilities and cultivation

Nascent Soul cultivation

Both unnamed Dao Protectors are explicitly at Nascent Soul. That stage establishes the deterrence and seniority needed to escort rare clan Chosen. The tournament matrixes admit competitors under separate rules, so their cultivation does not allow them to intervene directly inside.

Dao protection

Their function is protective rather than performative: secure the delegation, supervise the junior cultivators, and respond to danger outside the Legacy space. No personal combat technique is shown for either member of the pair.

Strategic observation

The protectors track matrix progress through external blood screens and recognize Meng Hao's seven-day fourth-matrix record as a threat. This is informed assessment grounded in clan knowledge of prior tournaments, not a supernatural divination ability.
