    Husband(s)/Wife(wives) and children - parents or siblings don't count.
    Might not be from the very start, but he/she should get it very early on, so that majority of the story he/she is a family man/woman.
    Note: children are a must!

    Yeah.... most cultivation MCs don't actually have children that early on.

    1. Too many enemies
    2. Too weak
    3. Not enough resources to support themselves fully
    4. No suitable wives
    5. No interest in it
    6. No home area where they're totally safe
    7. Neither them nor a possible wife would be available to raise them, they have to spend all their time cultivating or other things
    In fact, the only CMCs I know of with a quick thought that have children are Coiling Dragon (relatively early) and Stellar Transformations (mid-late about)

    Most cultivation novels try to push back that aspect as late into the story as possible. So if you are looking for a MC who is a family man, look no further than IET's novels.

    IET novels with early marriage & children include Coiling Dragon, Desolate Era, Swallowed Star & Lord Xue Ying.

    That's exactly why I'm looking for such a story - someone who manages to cultivate while facing all these enormous hurdles is bound to be super awesome!

    Which is why IET's novels (namely, Coiling Dragon - I didn't manage to keep reading anything else long enough, as IET has a HUGE problem with power balance) don't really fit - MC gets family only once he is already overpowered.

    In CD he gets his family when he's still in the first world. Relatively strong, but still way below total OP status.

    ST is a bit later, but they're still nowhere near total OP status.
