Ancient Ancestral Ruins - Chapter 63 The Next Generation of Heads of the House
“The killing of my ancient sect’s disciple is an irreconcilable enmity!”
Within the Qing Shen Ancient Sect, elders were filled with righteous indignation and raging anger. Their bodies were surging with a powerful divine aura, strange phenomena appeared, and the laws were in full swing.
As a top-level religious sect that suppresses a region.
The Qing Shen Ancient Sect had never suffered such a great loss before. Many elders volunteered to lead the sect members to destroy the Lu family of Wangyue City!
The current leader of the Qing Shen Sect also had a gloomy expression. This matter concerned the reputation of the Qing Shen Ancient Sect. If he did not do something, wouldn’t the world laugh at the fact that the Qing Shen Ancient Sect had no one to lead it?
at the same time.
Meanwhile, within the Seven Killings Holy Sect on the other side.
The Seven Killings Saint has returned. He is a man of great fortune. He once accidentally found an ancient ruin and obtained a treasure that could save his life and take his place in a critical moment.
So when the Heavenly Demon went on a killing spree in the Ancient Demon Realm, his protector died, but he survived.
He told the Seven Killers Cult Leader what had happened.
However, when the Seven Killings Sect Leader went to consult the Holy Ancestor, the answer he received was still to wait and see.
This left both the Seven Killings Saint and the Sect Leader somewhat bewildered.
When the Holy Ancestor went to war with the Lu family, how spirited he was!
Why is it that now, after ten thousand years, the Holy Ancestor is so cautious and treads on thin ice when facing the already weak Lu family?
However, no matter how unwilling they were in their hearts.
The Seven Killings Holy Sect was ultimately founded by the Holy Ancestor. Without his permission, neither the Seven Killings Holy Son nor the Sect Leader could act arbitrarily and break the rules.
In comparison.
The ancient Sun family also participated in the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, but the ancient Sun family did not send any important core figures. There was an elder in charge of leading the team, but they were all wiped out in the Ancient Demon Secret Realm.
What the Sun family could not accept was that while all sides suffered heavy losses, the Lu family returned safely, reportedly with an astonishing harvest.
On what grounds?
What qualifications do the small and weak Lu family have?
Do they really think they can be enemies of all the major sects and traditions just because they have someone backing them up?
The ancient Sun family looked down on the Lu family from the bottom of their hearts. After all, even though the Lu family had someone backing them up, they never came to seek justice for Lu Changhe’s matter.
It seems that even the so-called Ninth Elder of the Lu family is wary of our Sun family!
…
In the ancient Xu family.
After Xu Huanhuan returned, she ran to the forbidden area deep within the clan.
This place is heavily protected by array formations, and only core members of the Xu family are qualified to enter. Otherwise, they will be bombarded and killed by countless array formations. Even a true god would not be able to force his way in.
“Grandmother! Grandmother! Do you know a senior named Lu Jiu?”
Xu Huanhuan entered a secret room and met a woman who looked elegant and middle-aged.
This is a grandmother of the Xu family, who is the most senior member of the entire Xu family. She has existed since ancient times, and her cultivation level is at least at the True God realm, and she may even have already embarked on the path to immortality.
“Lu Jiu?”
When Xu’s grandmother saw Xu Huanhuan, a loving smile appeared on her face.
After all, among the many younger generations of the Xu family, Huanhuan was one of her favorites.
As for the name Lu Jiu, she looked puzzled because this name did not exist in her memory.
“Grandmother doesn’t know her? But that Ninth Senior said that he knows Grandmother, and not just any ordinary acquaintance.” Xu Huanhuan also became puzzled.
Although my time with Lu Jiu was short, that senior Lu Jiu doesn’t seem like someone who would lie.
“He really said that?”
Grandmother Xu looked curious and said, “Tell me about this person.”
If we’re talking about a man surnamed Lu, it seems he has a close relationship with her; in her long life of tens of thousands of years, it seems there’s only one person like that.
As Xu Huanhuan narrated, the story unfolded one by one.
The expression on Grandma Xu’s face gradually became slightly melancholy. Fragments of memories from the past years appeared one after another in her mind, but the figure of that person was blurry.
“It’s him who’s back!”
Although I have long forgotten that person’s name and do not remember what he looks like.
But she was certain of it.
The person Huanhuan was talking about was someone she couldn’t remember, yet couldn’t forget.
…
In the deep courtyard of the Lu family home.
Lu Jiu is also cultivating. He obtained a lot of cultivation resources from the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, which he can use for his cultivation in the Qi Refining Realm.
I thought that my trip to the Ancient Demon Realm would allow me to enter the Nascent Soul Realm.
Unexpectedly, he is still in the Qi Refining stage.
As the seventh physique, the Void Devourer consumes far more energy to grow than any of the previous physiques.
It’s not that the seventh physique is more powerful than the other six, but rather that his physical foundation is too strong due to the cultivation of the previous six physiques.
When he was cultivating his first physical body, his foundation was still a small mound of earth.
So when he cultivates the seventh physique, his foundation will be as solid as an ancient divine mountain!
“He’s reached the eighth level of the Qi Refining Realm…”
Much later.
Lu Jiu opened his eyes, a slightly bitter smile appearing on his lips.
There’s nothing I can do; the cultivation speed is just too slow.
Although the resources he possessed were truly astonishing, cultivation is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it ultimately requires a process of accumulation and refinement.
Otherwise, rapid advancement is nothing but a castle in the air, an illusion!
This day.
Lu Jiu called Lu Xingyun over.
“With your intelligence, you must be able to see that I want to groom you to be the next head of the Lu family.”
Lu Jiu got straight to the point and said slowly, “That old bastard Qingyun ultimately lacks potential. Even if he cultivates according to the notes I gave him, he still has a chance to become a true god in the future, but his potential is still too poor.”
“Lu Changhe has more than enough talent, but lacks the mind. He can become a weapon for the Lu family in the future, but the Lu family still needs someone to wield the weapon. You are the most suitable person for that.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xingyun was deeply moved. “Thank you for your kindness, Senior, but the elders may not be willing to let a woman like me become the head of the clan. Moreover, there have been some unpleasant comments about you in the clan recently…”
“Don’t worry about those trivial matters. The future decisions of the Lu family are not up to those old men. Qingyun is the current head of the family, and the head of the Lu family has always had the right to make decisions since ancient times.”
“Alright, let’s not talk about these pointless things anymore.”
Lu Jiu smiled faintly, not taking the so-called rumors about the Lu family to heart at all.
He did not reveal his identity, but maintained a certain mystery to prevent the Lu family from becoming overly dependent on him, and to slowly and gradually break down the Lu family’s enemies, like frogs being boiled in lukewarm water.
“As the next head of the family, although you have some opportunities, they are ultimately shallow. Today I will impart the method to you. If you cultivate it well, your future achievements will not be much worse than your younger brother’s.”
As soon as he finished speaking…
Lu Jiu flicked his finger, and a golden light flashed and disappeared, landing between Lu Xingyun’s eyebrows.
Lu Jiu had no intention of making Lu Xingyun cripple her cultivation and start over.
Instead, it’s about building upon her already decent foundation, allowing her to take it a step further, grow faster, and have even greater potential for growth.
In terms of cultivation techniques, Lu Jiu chose one for her that he obtained from the Primordial Ancestral Ruins.
Although it is not as good as the Primordial Heavenly Art, it still has amazing growth potential. With Lu Xingyun’s potential, there is still hope that he will become a human immortal in the future.
To achieve greater success, one needs more than just the right techniques; one also needs opportunities and the ability to leave this world.
In fact, Lu Jiu had already figured it out long ago after returning to his homeland.
The innate laws of the Azure Realm are incomplete, making it extremely difficult to become an immortal here; becoming a human immortal is very, very difficult.
To become a celestial immortal on the basis of a human immortal is even more difficult.
As for Xuanxian, there is absolutely no possibility of it!
Because the innate laws that the Xuanxian mastered and controlled were more complete than those of this world.
In terms of passing on cultivation techniques, it wasn’t that Lu Jiu was stingy. The reason he didn’t pass on the Primordial Heavenly Technique was because Lu Xingyun’s aptitude wasn’t good enough to cultivate it.
Even if you manage to cultivate successfully, it will be difficult to reach a high level in the future, so it’s not worth the effort.
