Having flown away from the territory of Nine Cold Mountain, completely out of the protection range of Elder Jiang, Lu Changfeng became extremely tense all the way.
He kept looking left and right, paying attention to the surrounding conditions, wary of cultivators with ill intentions, doing the dirty work of intercepting and killing halfway.
This kind of thing was not uncommon in the Cultivation Realm of the Chu Kingdom.
Actually, it was no surprise that Lu Changfeng would be so nervous.
Nowadays, after finally obtaining a Foundation Establishment Pill, which is crucial for his future Foundation Establishment, Lu Changfeng now regards this pill as extremely important.
If it weren’t for the poor environment on the Flood Dragon Ship, no supply of abundant Spiritual Qi, and being unsuitable for secluded cultivation, Lu Changfeng really wanted to immediately enter Foundation Establishment to avoid unnecessary prolonged considerations.
"Second brother, after we return, just take this Foundation Establishment Pill and establish your foundation without any worries."
"This time, our Cyan Mountain Sect will have one more Foundation Establishment Cultivator."
On the deck at the front of the Flying Ship, Lu Yuanshan manipulated his Magical Power, steering the Flood Dragon Ship rapidly forward, speaking with a smile.
"Once you complete your Foundation Establishment, it will soon be Nian Chuan and Ming Hui’s turn."
"The Cyan Mountain Sect is getting stronger by the day."
Beneath the Flood Dragon Ship, the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers quickly passed by.
The three siblings were currently uninterested in admiring the scenery, all pondering over the matter of Foundation Establishment.
"Big brother, I do want to establish my foundation early, but we haven’t returned to the sect yet."
"All the way, I keep feeling that we’ve been targeted, a strange sensation in my heart that can’t be described, just very odd."
Lu Changfeng had no intention of jesting, his face was serious.
"Qi Cultivators and Foundation Establishment Cultivators are still manageable, but once one or two Crystallization experts emerge, what would we do?"
"A Crystallization Cultivator can eliminate us with just a flick of a finger."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanshan’s gaze focused, also paying attention to the surroundings, really a bit worried about the concerns Lu Changfeng mentioned.
But after a round of scrutiny, everything seemed normal, with no signs of anything unusual.
"Changfeng, although you’re being a bit overly suspicious, you should still be on alert."
Lu Ping’s communication sounded: "On this return to the sect, we indeed cannot be careless."
Could there really be Crystallization Cultivators considering intercepting us for a Foundation Establishment Pill?
It may not necessarily be the case.
The Crystallization Cultivators attending the Celestial South Exchange Conference are all notable figures, and within their own forces, they’ve already become key individuals.
Take Shenxiao Palace’s Xuu Qingshan, for example.
Ji Family Patriarch Ji Daolin.
Yijian Sect Leader Zhang Yuanqing, among others.
The other Crystallization Loose Cultivators are also formidable.
These Crystallization Cultivators, due to their different social circles, far surpass those in the Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment circles, naturally possessing superior cultivation resources.
A Foundation Establishment Pill, to a Crystallization Cultivator, is really not a rare item. With a bit of effort and finding the right connections, they can easily obtain some Foundation Establishment Pills.
There’s no need to carry out an interception and attack Foundation Establishment Cultivators for a pill, doing such a thing would harm their own reputation.
Many Crystallization Cultivators are also quite proud and won’t lower their status to confront Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
To truly tempt them, it would have to be items like Tier Four Magical Artifacts, elixirs, and so on.
Taking a step back, even Five Elements Crystals like the Li Fire Crystal could pique their interest.
A Foundation Establishment Pill is out of the question.
The temptation really isn’t significant.
"This time at the Trade Conference, there are quite a few mid-stage and late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, making up more than half of the total number, reaching over sixty people."
"None of these people has deliberately concealed their appearance, all showing their true faces. Clearly, they all consider themselves some level of capability, with no need to hide."
"If we were really intercepted halfway, the attackers’ strength would undoubtedly be at least mid-stage Foundation Establishment."
"Cultivators at this level, Yuanshan, you teaming up with Zhiwei should have no problem killing them."
"As for late-stage Foundation Establishment, it would be slightly more tricky."
On the Flood Dragon Ship, Lu Ping spoke gently: "When the soldiers come, block them; when the water comes, cover it with earth. You don’t need to feel too much pressure, your father is here, real danger won’t be ignored."
Even if a Crystallization Cultivator truly does make a move, dropping their dignity to trouble the three juniors, Lu Ping wouldn’t just stand by. Find the newest release on novel⦿fire.net
That "Three-star Resurrection" wouldn’t be something to withhold.
Not to mention Crystallization Cultivators, even if Elder Jiang came personally, Lu Ping would be able to have a fight.
"With father here, we really don’t need to worry."
"Whether there will be an interception is really not worth pondering over."
Lu Yuanshan laughed heartily; thinking Lu Ping was right beside them, he felt much more at ease, even if the sky was falling, there was nothing to fear.
The silent Lu Zhiwei also nodded slightly: "Second brother, you need not worry."
Lu Changfeng nodded emphatically, seeing the sense in it, he then relaxed, closed his eyes, and started to relax, adjusting his state, in preparation for promptly starting Foundation Establishment upon returning to Cyan Lotus Mountain.
Time passed imperceptibly.
After the Flood Dragon Ship continued flying for over three hundred miles towards Cyan Lotus Mountain, when passing a region named Horsehoof Mountain, Lu Yuanshan was the first to notice something was amiss.
From his perspective, he saw two figures emerge from the distant horizon, rapidly flying towards the Flood Dragon Ship in a sword control posture.
Before seeing clearly who was coming, a strand of Sword Qi had already pierced through the sky, slashing straight at Lu Yuanshan.
Witnessing the Sword Qi slash forward, Lu Yuanshan sighed; how could he not realize what was happening, evidently, it was an encounter with someone killing for treasure.
What shouldn’t have come, has come!
It truly verified Lu Changfeng’s suspicion.
Lu Yuanshan was initially not inclined to incite conflict; how great would it be to live in harmony, without disturbing each other.
But having run into such a situation, there’s no choice.
Now, he could only be forced to retaliate.
"Something’s happening."
As Lu Yuanshan discovered the enemy attack, Lu Ping also quickly noticed and immediately communicated with Lu Zhiwei and Lu Changfeng.
"It’s just as Changfeng said."
Lu Changfeng, who had been sitting still, suddenly stood up in a jolt.
"Is there really someone daring to attack us?"
As soon as he spoke, he heard the sound of Sword Qi breaking through the air, looked over in its direction.
The Flood Dragon Ship itself had defensive capabilities but, under Lu Yuanshan’s control, trying to fend off Sword Qi attacks was proving impossible.
The speed at which the Sword Qi slashed was indeed too fast; it had already reached within the Flood Dragon Ship, necessitating a counterattack.
Lu Yuanshan’s eyes turned cold; his second brother’s Foundation Establishment Pill indeed had been targeted by someone.
He dared not be careless, summoning his Qingyin Flying Sword, intercepting the Sword Qi head-on, dispersing it with one strike.
By relying on this strike, Ma Xianming and Woolong naturally wouldn’t assume it would take Lu Yuanshan’s life, preparing for a second strike.
Standing on the Flying Sword, Ma Xianming showed a homicidal intent, poured Magical Power madly into the other Magical Artifact he held, showcasing terrifying prowess in an instant.
