Chapter 127: Chapter 96 Foundation Establishment Grand Ceremony! Rising Fame!
Soon, the three of them arrived at the cave on the mountain peak and sat down by a stone table.
“Come, try the Monkey Wine from our family.”
Lu Tiande took out three porcelain cups and a wine pot, pouring some Spiritual Wine for each.
Lu Li picked up his cup, gently sipped it, and felt a refreshing fragrance rush to his forehead, followed by streams of Spiritual Energy swirling in his belly.
“It’s the familiar taste, but it’s a pity that Great Uncle has already passed away.”
He felt somewhat emotional. Several years ago, the last two elders of the Lu Family, Lu Hongchang and Lu Hongyi had passed away while he was still in the Floating Realm.
“This is fate, beyond human reach.”
Lu Tiande sighed deeply.
Lu Qingshan also looked heavy-hearted and then said to the two, “I’m afraid I can’t stay in the clan anymore, I plan to consolidate my cultivation and then venture into the outside world.”
His face was somewhat flushed.
“This Medicine Pill is very domineering. If one day, my mind gets lost in the Demon Path and I can’t control myself, I hope you, brother, will take action…”
Lu Li’s face froze, and the wine cup momentarily halted at his lips.
“Things haven’t reached such an irredeemable state, how can we be so dejected?”
He spoke comforting words with a firm tone.
Across from him, Lu Tiande also looked sorrowful, “I watched you grow up, and you chose this path to aid the Lu Family through calamities. Today, you have succeeded in Foundation Establishment. As an ancestor, I have nothing much to give but these.”
He then took out two Magic Artifacts from his Storage Bag, a fiery red Flying Sword and an earth-yellow colossal cauldron.
Both Artifacts emitted a rich aura of preciousness, obviously being Top Grade.
“How dare I, a junior, accept ancestors’ own Defensive Magical Artifacts?”
Lu Qingshan looked alarmed.
He recognized the Earth Origin Cauldron, a Defensive Magical Artifact always utilized by the ancestor.
“Take them. You’ve just achieved Foundation Establishment, and without Magic Artifacts, your strength will be significantly weaker. I, the old ancestor, am nearing the end of my life, it’s no use keeping them. The family treasury will now be handed to Lu Li…”
Lu Tiande drank a sip of Spiritual Wine, his face expressing an unrestrained mood.
Hearing this, Lu Qingshan was no longer pretentious, his face full of gratitude: “Junior thanks the ancestor for this treasure.”
At this moment, Lu Li also smiled and handed a Jade Scroll to Lu Qingshan.
“These are some Secret Techniques, see if you can use them.”
Lu Qingshan took the Jade Scroll, looking doubtful.
A sweep of Divine Sense transmitted a large amount of information into his mind, leaving it somewhat clouded.
Moments later, he looked at Lu Li in shock.
“This… Top-tier Demon Secret Skills? The Blood Demon Tome? Blood Jutsu…”
His heart seemed to surge with overwhelming waves, the Secret Techniques were shockingly appropriate as he was in dire need of them.
With them, his chances of survival would greatly increase.
It was not an exaggeration to say that this was akin to a generational teaching.
“Brother, you actually possess such incredible Secret Techniques?”
Lu Li just smiled, offering no explanation.
“They were merely obtained from a slain Demon Cultivator.”
These Secret Techniques were completely obsolete to him, far inferior to his Divine Skills, already thoroughly obsolete.
But they were perfect to compensate for Lu Qingshan’s weaknesses.
“Thank you for the techniques, brother. I toast to you.”
Lu Qingshan was suddenly moved to tears.
He thought that stepping into the Demon Path would cause the ancestor and brother to look upon him differently, but instead, he received such “care,” which deeply moved him at that moment.
“We are brothers who grew up together; let’s not be strangers.”
Lu Li picked up his cup, smiling lightly.
Seeing Lu Li pass on the techniques, Lu Tiande looked very relieved.
“Be it the Demon Path or the Immortal Path, both are pursued for the Path of Immortality. There’s no need to fuss over this.”
“Which of those great abilities of the Demon Path did not emerge from a heap of corpses and a sea of blood, and aren’t they living well?”
“In our cultivation, just like a thousand boats crossing a river, if we do not compete or seize, we’ll just become but a mound of yellow soil. I came to realize this too late…”
“We have learned our lesson.”
Both Lu Li agreed, nodding.
At this moment, Lu Li shifted the topic: “Grandfather, do you know which force is attacking the Lu Family this time?”
Lu Tiande’s expression turned stern: “If I’m not mistaken, it must be the remnants of Zoroastrianism stirring up trouble again. After being destroyed by several Major Sects of the Inner Sea thousands of years ago, they fled to the Outer Sea, forever trying to make a resurgence…”
Lu Li, hearing this, his eyes flashed a chilly light, knowing that with such a force, it was unlikely for the Outer Sea to be peaceful.
But luckily, when the sky falls, there are tall ones who hold it. There was no need to worry too much in the short term.
Then, the three exchanged a few more words before Lu Qingshan stood up and left.
Watching him gradually walking away, Lu Tiande took out a fragment of a Jade Talisman and handed it to Lu Li: “This is the Clan Leader Token, only one-fourth of it. The other three pieces are in the hands of other families.”
“The other families?”
Lu Li looked puzzled, quietly waiting for the ancestor to continue.
“Our Lu Family was originally a Golden Core Family from the Inner Sea of the Sinking Dragon Sea. Hundreds of years ago, after a catastrophe, we fled to the Outer Sea, a secret known only by the current ancestor.”
“There are four branches total, and our first-generation ancestor is just one of them. Once this Jade Talisman is fully assembled, it can open the family treasury; the Golden Core ancestors have made plans long ago.”
Lu Li’s expression shifted, taking the Jade Talisman. Little did he know the Lu Family had such a background.
He had always suspected why top-tier Cultivation Techniques were handed down within the family.
“Using this knowledge, once I grow stronger, I’ll explore more.”
A few hundred years of accumulation by a Golden Core family was still somewhat exciting, especially since he was in great need of Five Elements Spiritual Items for refining Divine Weapons.
Lu Tiande nodded, then spoke solemnly: “Your fortunes are favorable, and having just broken through, your strength is quite robust. Yet, you must not underestimate some Foundation Establishment Experts outside.”
What do you think?
