Family Cultivation: I Farm and Raise Fish under the Sea

Chapter 135: Chapter 99: Congratulations from All Directions! Dominating the Crowd!_2

The Chen Family and the Wang Family both possessed two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and the ones who came today were those very individuals and Wang Lin.

Both were at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuanli led a group of people to their seats around the case table.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became somewhat eerie.

All the cultivators below sensed something was amiss, and the arena fell silent as if frozen by a chill, everyone terribly afraid of being caught up in the grand battle of Foundation Establishment.

Lu Yuting and the members of the Lu Family all had a chill in their expressions, anger stirring in their hearts.

Ye Yuchan’s face looked displeased; today was the celebration of her son’s Foundation Establishment, and these people clearly had ill intentions.

Lu Tiande felt extremely displeased, suppressing his rising fury.

He thought to himself, should the situation change, even if it meant resorting to Forbidden Techniques, he would kill one of them, as the intent to kill began to boil within.

In terms of Lu Li’s strength, he was quite confident.

Just as the members of the Lu Family were bottling up their anger, a change swiftly took place in the arena.

Chen Yuanli suddenly stood up and calmly said to Lu Li, “Fellow Daoist is undergoing Foundation Establishment today, I especially came to exchange a few pointers with you, may I?”

“Yes.”

Lu Li nodded, his expression cold.

He couldn’t refuse under these circumstances, or it would undermine the reputation of the Lu Family.

Such “sparring” had become quite common throughout the Outer Seas, yet this person clearly had ulterior motives.

He scoffed inwardly; outside, this sort of trash would be annihilated with a single axe strike. Today, he had to play along in this farce, which felt somewhat tasteless.

Seeing that Lu Li had agreed, Chen Yuanli was inwardly pleased, though his expression remained unchanged.

He swiftly flew towards the back platform and in an instant stood at the center of the platform, as if afraid Lu Li would suddenly change his mind.

Lu Li also swiftly flew to one side of the platform and stood firm, an air of elegance and detachment naturally arising around him.

Some nearby cultivators quickly scattered, looking down on the newly appointed ancestor of the Lu Family.

After all, the Chen Family Ancestor, as a seasoned cultivator, had a reputation that had thundered across the nearby seas for over a hundred years and was deeply rooted in people’s hearts.

“It seems the Chen Family Ancestor has some ‘intentions’ this time.”

The crowd wasn’t foolish; they saw through the old man’s intentions, probably wanting to “accidentally” kill the newly appointed ancestor of the Lu Family.

Even a number of the Lu Family’s outer members began to worry, with a heavy look on their faces.

Contrastingly, Ye Yuchan and Lu Yuting remained calm, which puzzled those around them.

Although there were rumors that the new Lu Family Ancestor had slain several Demon Cultivators, many believed this was due to their carelessness, not being prepared for a Body Cultivator’s close-quarters combat.

Lu Tiande remained composed, sitting in place and watching Chen Yuanli with a cold gaze.

The atmosphere grew even more strange, leaving some in the Lu Family confused.

Just as the crowd had different thoughts, a sudden change erupted in the arena.

“Buzz…”

Two auras violently collided, the strength immense, immediately whipping up fierce winds and stirring up clouds of dust all around.

The spectators felt as though a giant mountain was pressing on their chests, breathing becoming somewhat difficult.

Seeing that the Lu Family Ancestor didn’t fall back, they were all surprised.

On the platform, Chen Yuanli’s momentum gradually built, but he felt the other’s aura was as deep as the ocean, shocking him to his core.

He could no longer care about his dignity and made the first move.

A golden Flying Sword instantly appeared in the void, with a pale Sword Qi surging around its body, and then fiercely slashed towards Lu Li.

Lu Li’s face was calm, always keeping his momentum on par with the opponent, which seemed somewhat “straining.”

He summoned the Aminokaze, the Sword Qi cutting through the void, harshly slashing towards the opponent’s Flying Sword.

“Boom…”

A violent collision sound thundered to the sky, a massive wave spreading out, stirring up ferocious winds.

The two Flying Swords were sent flying backwards.

In this clash, the Chen Family Ancestor only had a slight advantage.

The group stood dumbstruck on the spot.

This Chen Family Ancestor was a renowned mid-stage Foundation Establishment powerhouse.

For a newly appointed ancestor to only be slightly disadvantaged was already astonishing.

Some uninformed members of the Lu Family were thrilled, clenching their fists, their hearts surging with excitement.

Meanwhile, Ye Yuchan and others remained unfazed, as though they had expected this, which greatly surprised the others.

A few Foundation Establishment Cultivators were astonished; the new Lu Family Ancestor had such a profound foundation, comparable to a direct disciple of the Purple Mansion.

The difference in strength after a Major Sect’s direct disciple breaks through Foundation Establishment depended on their own foundation.

Like the top prodigy of each generation of the Heavenly Demon Sect, who mastered Divine Skills, one who just broke through was beyond their ability to confront.

“The Lu Family Ancestor has kept a deep secret, having such a figure yet hiding it.”

A few laughed and said to Lu Tian.

Lu Tian smiled slightly, offering no explanation, looking as if basking in the glory.

The Ye Family Ancestor was also utterly shocked; this strength already had a hint of the Purple Mansion’s touch.

Far beyond their comparison.

If the new Lu Family Ancestor continued to cultivate for a few more decades, reaching the rankings of the Heavenly Ranking List was hopeful.

As for the thought of the Earth and Heavenly Ranking Lists, everyone dared not even consider it.

In the Outer Seas, countless Foundation Establishment Cultivators—combined, the Earth and Heavenly Ranking Lists totaled only one hundred and ten individuals, most of whom had mastered Divine Skills, extremely terrifying.

A Heavenly Ranking List powerhouse alone could sweep away their group, almost having the might of a true Purple Mansion being.

Just as everyone had different thoughts, the battle on the stage resumed.

Chen Wuli, infuriated with embarrassment, made a full effort to activate his Flying Sword, its enormous Sword Qi seeming to pierce the void, fiercely slashing towards Lu Li.

Lu Li’s expression remained unchanged, and he also stimulated the Aminokaze, quickly like a bolt of thunder, charging towards the incoming Flying Sword.

“Boom…”

Another loud noise came forth, the fierce Sword Qi freely scattering, carving countless sword marks on the ground, leaving chaos in its wake.

The spectating Qi Refinement cultivators, even from a distance, felt the Gang Wind on their faces, somewhat stinging.
