Ancestor Above

88 Chapter 87-Morning Glory

The base of the Gongsun family was in Liao County. The other small and medium-sized families in Liao County were essentially their vassals. The Qiao family of Xinfu mountain was no different.

The Qiao clan had two foundation building cultivators, so they could occupy a level-three spirit vein with the support of the gong sun clan.

Now that Gongsun Shi had agreed to help, the others had no right to say anything.

Of course, the Lu family would have to pay a price.

Mrs. Qiao could be considered to have suffered a great disaster, almost exterminated. However, there were still hundreds of clansmen. Although most of them were mortals, there were also some young cultivators who were used as the fire seed.

The Gongsun clan had said that Lu chaoxi wanted to borrow the spirit vein of new Fortune Mountain for a month. That was no problem. After all, the Qiao clan had no use for it now. But they had to leave 500 merit points to Mrs. Qiao as rent and help.

It was a bit expensive to rent it for a month, but it was already good enough that the Gongsun family could help. Moreover, the Qiao clan had just encountered a great disaster, so it was reasonable for a fellow Daoist to help them. It would also be a good name if it spread out.

Most importantly, it was really difficult to find a suitable and usable level three spirit vein nearby other than Xinfu mountain.

Moreover, the Lu clan had earned 18000 merit points from this.

It’s only 500 yuan, it’s nothing.

……

When Lu chaoxi tried to make a breakthrough, Lu Qing had naturally exchanged for the [ breakthrough bottleneck (three-star rare) ] item for him.

Once he had spent the 400 karma, the karma he had on hand returned to the 1000 mark.

Based on his own experience, Lu Qing judged that Lu chaoxi’s chances of breaking through were very, very high. Even though he did not have a treasure like the divine lightning wood to protect him, his talent as a dual spiritual root owner and his own experience had increased his chances of breaking through.

Most importantly, Lu Qing had spent the “power of initial enlightenment” and “breaking through bottlenecks” on him. These two things added up to 750 karma.

But even so, as his father, Lu Qing could not avoid being confused by his concern.

He stood guard outside, constantly paying attention to the situation in the quiet room.

The commotion caused by breaking through initial enlightenment was much greater than breaking through to Foundation establishment.

Most of the spirit Qi produced by the level-three spirit vein was directed by Lu chaoxi and gathered around the quiet room.

Fortunately, there were not many cultivators on Xinfu mountain. There was no problem of fighting over the spirit Qi. Lu chaoxi could enjoy the baptism of spirit Qi in peace.

Breaking through from the foundation establishment stage to the initial enlightenment stage was the sublimation of the soul. With the spiritual power of the body as the source, the spiritual Qi from the outside world would be guided to continuously baptize the spirit. If one succeeded, they would naturally become an initial enlightenment cultivator. If he failed, his soul would be severely injured.

Different from the Foundation Stage, the most difficult and dangerous part of this process was after seven days of preparation, when the spiritual energy was drawn in and the soul began to completely sublimate. That was around the seventh to fifteenth day.

After the first seven days had passed, the spiritual Qi surrounding the quiet room had become even denser. The spiritual Qi even formed a thin mist that covered the entire room.

Lu Qing became even more nervous.

Another seven days passed. Lu chaoxi did not fail.

As the days passed, Lu Qing gradually felt more at ease.

The most dangerous obstacle had passed. What was left was to gather Ling power and stabilize the realm.

On the 23rd day of Lu chaoxi’s closed-door cultivation, the mist formed by spiritual Qi that had filled the surroundings of the quiet room suddenly shrank. There was only some left a few meters above the quiet room. Lightning and thunder suddenly burst out from the mist.

Don’t misunderstand. This was not heavenly lightning. It was a sign of Lu chaoxi’s lightning-attribute cultivation technique. This meant that Lu chaoxi had already completed his breakthrough.

His figure, riding on a flying sword, slowly approached under the Golden lightning.

Ten cultivators of the Lu clan were gathered outside his door. Upon seeing this, Lu ranting, Lu tingyuan, and Lu Tingzhou knelt down and kowtowed.

“Congratulations to the clan leader for achieving initial enlightenment!”

The joy in everyone’s hearts was extremely sincere.

Lu chaoxi’s success in Qiming would be of great help to the future of the Lu clan!

The first 50 years of the Lu clan’s 100-year history was nothing much to say. At that time, there were not many people in the Lu family. Even the generation with the “ting” character was still young. The Lu clan was equivalent to Lu Qing.

After Lu Qing was seriously injured and began to go into seclusion, he encountered a few more disasters. The Lu clan, which was almost at the top of the Feiyun state when it was just born, suddenly realized that without their ancestor, they were nothing. With the help of the great ancestor, the Lu clan had nurtured several foundation building cultivators in just a few decades. Their Foundation was much better than that of ordinary cultivator clans. However, compared to some of the truly famous sects, the gap in their heritage could not be erased.

If the clan only had one initial enlightenment cultivator back then, would they have ended up in this state?

In recent years, the clan had been developing better and better, and it seemed like it would rise again in 15 years. However, there was no powerful cultivator in the house, which made people feel very uneasy. They felt that all this development was just a reflection of the water in the mirror.

Golden core was hard to come by, but there had to be one Qiming.

Now, the clan leader, who was said to be seriously injured and had difficulty even fighting more than ten years ago, had not only recovered from his injuries, but he had also displayed his prowess in the previous battle and killed a level three white ghost. He had even broken through to become an initial enlightenment cultivator!

This was a joyous matter! It meant that the foundation of the family had truly been stabilized.

An initial enlightenment cultivator had a lifespan of 280 years!

Lu chaoxi was only 124 years old this year. He was not considered old even for a foundation building cultivator, let alone Qiming. If there were no accidents, Lu chaoxi could protect the clan for at least a hundred years!

For the next 100 years, the Lu family would not have to worry about the problem of experts.

In the entire Feiyun state, an initial enlightenment cultivator was definitely considered a top figure. There were only 24 initial enlightenment cultivators in the Qingfeng sect. There were less than 30 of them in the Feiyun state. Lu chaoxi was one of them. What was there to fear?

The mortal enemy of the Lu clan, the Zhao clan of peace, was only at the first enlightenment seventh Foundation establishment stage.

Although the number of foundation building cultivators was still far from enough, at least the combat power of the top level was impressive.

Uh, the Zhao family’s Zhao zhengzha is at the fifth level of the initial enlightenment stage, so there’s still a bit of a difference.

But at least it wasn’t too far off from the main stage!

Lu chaoxi was still young. He would continue to cultivate steadily in the future. He might not be at the Golden core stage, but it would not be too much of a problem for him to reach the seventh or eighth level of the initial enlightenment stage.

Furthermore, their other senior, Lu mingchao’s performance in recent years had also been extremely eye-catching. With her talent as a three-spiritual root owner, she was able to raise her cultivation level by one level in two to three years at the foundation establishment stage.

Perhaps, there was hope for her future.

Of course, the Qi refining cultivators in the clan did not know that Lu mingchao already had double spiritual roots. Otherwise, they would have been even more confident.

There was hope for the Lu family’s revival!
