Chapter 229: 119: The New Foundation Building Great Cultivator, To Battle!_2
Or it could be said that most cultivators did not like to venture outside.
People kept arriving one after another.
After about a quarter of an hour, nearly everyone had arrived.
In the plaza, many people were whispering amongst themselves.
Speculating about why the family had summoned everyone here.
But none knew what the matter was.
It was at this time.
Two surging and majestic auras of spiritual pressure burst forth.
Everyone looked up.
They immediately saw an elder with the appearance of a young boy despite his white hair, wearing a Qingzhu robe and with a dignified face, flying through the air.
Next to this elder, there was a scholarly-looking middle-aged man dressed in a blue robe, about forty years old.
To everyone’s surprise, this middle-aged man, just like the Lu Family Ancestor, was exuding a terrifying aura of spiritual pressure.
And he was also flying through the air.
“We pay our respects to the Ancestor!”
“We pay our respects to the Ancestor!”
“We pay our respects to the Ancestor!”
At this moment, everyone shouted in unison, bowing in salute.
“Flying through the air!?”
“Has the Lu Family brought forth a new Foundation Building Great Cultivator!?”
Seeing this scene, Lu Changsheng was also astonished and bowed in salute.
Flying through the air was something only achievable after breaking through to Foundation Establishment.
It was also a symbol and characteristic of a Foundation Building Great Cultivator.
This scholarly man who was flying next to the Lu Family Ancestor was indicating that he was a Foundation Building Great Cultivator.
“Silence!”
The Lu Family Ancestor spoke indifferently, quieting the clamor in the plaza.
Then, he swept his gaze over everyone and said.
“Today, I have an announcement to make.”
“As you all can see, Yuan Zhong has broken through to Foundation Establishment.”
The aged voice of the Lu Family Ancestor was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone’s ears.
“We pay respects to Ancestor Yuan Zhong!”
“We pay respects to Ancestor Yuan Zhong!”
“We pay respects to Ancestor Yuan Zhong!”
Upon hearing the words of the Lu Family Ancestor.
Confirming that Lu Yuanzhong had become a Foundation Building Great Cultivator.
All the Lu Family disciples were overcome with excitement and fervor.
The Lu Family members, who had felt a bit repressed during this period, suddenly swept away all traces of gloom.
With their emotions surging like a tidal wave, they shouted together.
“Lu Yuanzhong, the Lu Family has actually brought forth a new Foundation Building Great Cultivator!”
Lu Changsheng, hearing these words, was also thrilled inside.
After all, the emergence of a new Foundation Building Great Cultivator in the Lu Family meant that the crisis at Qingzhu Mountain would be resolved.
He no longer needed to worry about the need to flee with his wives and children.
He could continue to live in Qingzhu Mountain peacefully and steadily.
Because, unless it was absolutely necessary, Lu Changsheng really did not want to reveal his true strength.
In the eyes of others, he was only a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root.
Exposing too much strength would easily draw attention and make him a target.
It was bound to bring about many unnecessary troubles.
“By the way, the Family Head, the Second Elder and the others, could they have already known about this Ancestor Yuan Zhong of the Lu Family?”
Lu Changsheng looked at the Lu Family Ancestor and Lu Yuanzhong on the high platform and suddenly thought to himself.
He recalled Lu Yuanding and the Second Elder’s reassurances that the Lu Family had a hidden depth.
Moreover, Lu Changsheng knew that breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage would provoke the spirit energy of heaven and earth, causing a significant disturbance.
In those three months, he had always been in Qingzhu.
And he hadn’t sensed any signs of someone breaking through to Foundation Establishment.
This indicated that Ancestor Yuan Zhong might not have achieved his breakthrough in this period.
Of course, it was also possible that the Lu Family had used some means to conceal the signs and phenomena of the breakthrough.
“The Chen Family has bullied us Lu Family too far; today, with my achievement of Foundation Establishment, is also the day for our Lu Family to counterattack!”
“The Ancestor has already formed an alliance with Hundred Birds Lake Bai Family and intends to march to Red Leaf Valley today to destroy the Chen Family, eradicating Red Leaf Valley Chen Family from the Cultivation World!”
At this moment, Lu Yuanzhong, the newly promoted Foundation Establishment Ancestor of the Lu family, looked at everyone and declared with a resonant voice.
The simple words set the blood of all Lu Family disciples boiling.
For these past few months, or even years, every member of the Lu Family had been harboring a sense of frustration.
Their hatred for the Red Leaf Valley Chen Family had accumulated for over a decade.
Now that the Lu Family had given birth to their second Foundation Building Great Cultivator and was preparing to counterattack the Chen Family,
How could they not be excited and moved?
They felt as if they were invigorated with renewed energy, their hearts tumultuous with excitement.
They could hardly wait to follow the two Ancestors and make their move against the Chen Family.
“So urgent? It seems that Ancestor Yuan Zhong broke through to Foundation Establishment a long time ago, but kept it a secret, consolidating his Cultivation Realm or waiting for the right moment.”
“No wonder the Family Head has been urging me to make more talismans all this past year. During this period, the family has also been covertly acquiring talismans, elixir medicines, puppets, and other treasures. It appears it was all in preparation for this battle.”
Lu Changsheng, hearing Lu Yuanzhong’s words, had a sudden realization.
He finally understood why the Lu Family had called all their family disciples back.
It was all in preparation for this moment.
The Chen Family wanted to devour and take over the Lu Family.
But similarly,
The Lu Family also wanted to take down the Chen Family and advance further.
With the Lu Family Ancestor’s grand birthday approaching, it seemed that they wanted to use this opportunity to give their last bit of strength to the Lu Family.
“With two Foundation Building Great Cultivators, allied with Hundred Birds Lake Bai Family, that makes three Foundation Building Great Cultivators.”
“True, although the Chen Family has only one Foundation Establishment Ancestor, Red Leaf Valley is also protected by a formation.”
“If there were only two Foundation Building Great Cultivators, it still might not be enough to break through.”
“And even if the Lu family did conquer the Chen Family, there would be significant casualties.”
“Relying solely on the Lu Family would make it difficult to take over the Spirit Vein of Red Leaf Valley, hence why they brought in the Hundred Birds Lake Bai Family who has had good relations with the Lu Family for generations.”
“With the addition of the Bai Family Ancestor, with three Foundation Building Great Cultivators, this battle should be nearly certain.”
“Even if the Chen Family seeks reinforcements from Wugong Ridge Zheng Family, the Zheng Family would not be able to assist in time.”
