A long time ago, Lu Ping discovered the task of dealing with the group of rogue cultivators at Shuangjiao Mountain, which Lu Changfeng then led a team to complete. It was completed very successfully. Lu Yuanshan recalled the time when Lu Changfeng led the mission to clear out the rogue cultivators at Shuangjiao Mountain. He wasn’t too worried about Lu Changfeng handling things outside the mountains. His only concern was the presence of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator among those rogue cultivators. For Lu Yuanshan, someone at the First Layer of Foundation Establishment was insignificant. Even if he was only two or three small realms higher, being at the Fourth Layer of Foundation Establishment, he could easily kill the opponent. But that’s from his own perspective. His second brother, however, was only at the First Layer of Foundation Establishment, lacking somewhat in strength. "For this mission to eradicate the rogue cultivators at Dan Cloud Mountain, it’s fine for you to go." "But since you’ve just entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, it might be unwise to face a cultivator of the same level alone. Why not have Zhiwei accompany you?" Lu Yuanshan suggested thoughtfully. As he had to manage door affairs, he preferred not to leave if possible. Within the sect, Zhiwei could also easily handle this task. "That’s not appropriate." Lu Changfeng shook his head, looking serious. "Little sister has her own matters to tend to. I’ve noticed she’s been focusing on learning the Artifact Refining Dao lately, rarely showing herself. How could she find time to accompany me to Dan Cloud Mountain?" "Is she in secluded cultivation again?" "Seems like it, haven’t seen her for days, she must be in short-term secluded cultivation." "A few days ago, she told me she had reached the threshold of a Tier Three Middle Grade Artifact Refiner. With hard work, promoting officially might not be difficult." This text is hosted at NoveIＦire.net Lu Yuanshan nodded slightly. Busy with sect affairs recently, he hadn’t paid much attention to Lu Zhiwei’s situation. If the little sister could further enhance her Artifact Refining Mastery and advance to a Tier Three Middle Grade Artifact Refiner, it would be beneficial not only for herself but also for the Cyan Mountain Sect. Considering this, it indeed seemed inappropriate to disturb the little sister. Thinking of this, Lu Yuanshan asked casually. "By the way, second brother, how is your learning of the Path of Array under father’s guidance going so far?" "I haven’t seen you create any arrays. You can’t slack off in this area, or father might scold you." Hearing Lu Yuanshan mention this, Lu Changfeng scratched his head, slightly embarrassed. Progress in learning arrays lately hadn’t been significant, as the Path of Array was not easy to master. "In this regard, don’t be in a rush. Give me about half a year, and I estimate I’ll become an official Tier One Lower-Grade Array Master. Hahaha..." As he spoke, Lu Changfeng started laughing at the end. Lu Yuanshan couldn’t say much in response. He had an interest in the Path of Array himself, occasionally tinkering with it, understanding that it indeed wasn’t easy to learn. If it were, he would have already become a Tier One Lower-Grade Array Master, instead of just knowing the basics, not even stepping through the formal doors. "Don’t worry about the array matter, eldest brother. I’ll head down the mountain to clear out those rogue cultivators at Dan Cloud Mountain first!" "After returning in triumph, I’ll dedicate myself to secluded cultivation and enter the realm of an Array Mage as soon as possible." "By the way, on this trip down the mountain, I need to go to the market to purchase some Array Materials for my learning." "So you have such plans." Upon hearing Lu Changfeng’s intention to visit the Cultivation Market, Lu Yuanshan didn’t refuse his request. "Second brother, concerning Dan Cloud Mountain, should I ask father if he permits you to go alone..." "Why do I need to ask father! It’s all First-Layer Foundation Establishment, no big problem if a fight breaks out. If it really can’t be won, can’t I just run?" Lu Changfeng said anxiously, "Do I have to stay under your protection all the time?" "Hehe, brother, I’m just worried about you." After some conversation, Lu Yuanshan didn’t insist further and instead took Lu Changfeng to the cave mansion at the rear mountain to inquire Lu Ping’s opinion. "If you want to go, then go." Lu Ping responded with just one sentence. "I have something for you, for self-defense." He instructed casually, opening the System Mall. In the mall, he found the Three-star Tribulation Thunder Talisman, spending 200 Reputation to exchange for it. The talisman’s effect was to directly slay Foundation Establishment Cultivators, possessing formidable power. If the First-Layer Foundation Establishment rogue cultivator was well-equipped and experienced, even if Lu Changfeng couldn’t beat him, this talisman was enough for self-defense. With a good execution, it could even kill enemies in a single strike. Lu Ping materialized the Three-star Tribulation Thunder Talisman and handed it to Lu Changfeng, saying no more. Giving a final piece of advice, he turned to leave with both brothers. The brothers left together. Soon, Lu Yuanshan formally entrusted the task of eradicating the rogue cultivators at Dan Cloud Mountain to Lu Changfeng alone. After half a day’s preparation, Lu Changfeng set off, flying by sword towards Jiangzhou County in the afternoon. Jiangzhou County, located in the eastern part of Lushan County, was the largest county within the Chu Kingdom and bordered the sea to its east. The sea it bordered was the Qingli Sea. As he had just recently reached the Foundation Establishment Stage and learned Sword Control Skill, it was his first long trip. Thus, Lu Changfeng’s speed couldn’t match the Sword Flight speed of Lu Yuanshan or Lu Zhiwei. However, riding the Tier Three Blazing Heaven Sword, his flight speed wasn’t slow, far exceeding that of Qi Cultivators, capable of covering ten thousand miles in a day. He reached Dan Cloud Mountain in Jiangzhou County by dusk the same day. To maintain peak combat power and to face the rogue cultivators in full readiness, he didn’t act immediately upon reaching Dan Cloud Mountain. He established a cave mansion nearby, rested a little, and began discreet reconnaissance of Dan Cloud Mountain’s situation. According to the information provided by Lu Yuanshan, there were a total of nine rogue cultivators. Finding this group at Dan Cloud Mountain wasn’t hard. The rogue cultivators were highly overbearing in their actions, speaking with fierce words and heavy with killing intent. After two hours, Lu Changfeng successfully located the rogue cultivators, led by the one at the First Layer of Foundation Establishment. This person appeared to be in their forties, a man dressed in black, with a volatile and prickly character, hard to handle. His name was Chen Xianhe, who intercepted and killed a team from a cultivation clan over three months ago, lucking into obtaining a Foundation Establishment Pill. With that pill, Chen Xianhe managed to reach Foundation Establishment. He had stagnated at Qi Cultivation Great Perfection for over thirty years, nearing the age limit for the best time for Foundation Establishment. After succeeding in Foundation Establishment, he naturally led the rogue cultivator team. As the strongest in the group, Chen Xianhe was naturally Lu Changfeng’s first target.
