"Um?"
"Your ancestors..."
"This..."
Li Yuanchao was clearly stunned.
Unexpectedly, Lu Li would ask such a question, and he immediately looked at Lu Dahai, who was listening attentively to the side.
"Our home?"
"My ancestors?... I don't think so..."
Lu Dahai was also taken aback for a moment, his tone uncertain as if he were recalling something.
" Lu Li's grandfather farmed his whole life; he was just an ordinary person."
"As for my grandfather... he was also a farmer, and my great-grandfather probably was too..."
"My great-grandfather..."
Lu Dahai carefully recalled the history of his ancestors as recorded in his Lineage.
Finally, a conclusion was reached.
"Well, my Old Lu has been farmers for generations. We really don't have any particularly remarkable figures in our family."
"I seem to have heard that during the late Ming Dynasty, one of my ancestors followed Li Zicheng for a period of time..."
Lu Dahai's rambling words made Li Yuanchao's lips twitch violently.
The others couldn't help but rub their foreheads as well.
Lu Li regretted asking that question.
However, it wasn't a whim.
In the Imprisoned Dragon Realm, there is indeed a saying that cultivating one's bloodline greatly increases the chances of producing a genius.
His family has two cultivators, and Lu Yao is no ordinary person either.
Therefore, if it weren't for the fact that some powerful figure's bloodline had been passed down from his ancestors, Lu Li wouldn't know how to explain it.
"Never mind, Director Li, this was just my casual guess."
"I do not know the secret of the jade pendant now. In the future, when my cultivation is more advanced, I may try to find its origin."
Lu Li shook his head, ending the conversation.
With his current level of cultivation, he clearly cannot access the realm depicted in the jade pendant.
Overthinking is pointless; it's better to focus on solving the immediate problem.
"Yes, Comrade Lu Li, you're right."
"Now that you have successfully Foundation Establishment, let's discuss your future plans."
Li Yuanchao responded.
As Lu Li's cultivation level improved, his mind and knowledge became richer, and he gained more and more insights into the formulation of strategic goals.
It is no longer simply a matter of national analysis and designation.
Instead, it was formulated only after both parties discussed, supplemented, and confirmed that there were no errors.
After all, it's your own life, and as the person involved, you should know better and more accurately how to live it.
" Director Li, I have already Foundation Establishment. According to the Azure Pool tradition, I will soon be promoted to the Inner Sect."
"Besides, I am now a master weapon refiner, so joining the Supreme Refinement Peak is no problem."
"Also, I should have agreed to Ye Chenfeng's request to repair my sword sooner; he'll probably be looking for me in the next few days."
As Lu Li spoke, the strategic team members on the other end of the jade pendant took notes and analyzed the information.
Finally, after considering the current situation of Azure Pool and Lu Li's personal circumstances, a new strategic report was produced.
The report was not particularly novel or special, and followed the original plan.
Ascend to the Supreme Refinement Peak, cultivate steadily, and continue on a prudent path of cultivation until major changes occur in Azure Pool.
At the same time, he taught his disciples to maximize their gains by relying on the innate characteristic of Changming and Changye.
Be wary of the hidden threat Upper White Peak, and repair the sword for Ye Chenfeng, eliminating this unstable factor as early as possible.
As for the Spirit Vein and mineral deposit outside the sect that is still immature and in the process of nurturing, it cannot be moved or mined and can remain hidden.
The nurturing Spirit Vein dissipate as soon as they are disturbed, and they cannot be transmitted back to the Great Xia.
However, it can be reserved as a strategic resource for future use, to be developed and operated to maximize its benefits when the opportunity arises.
There are no major flaws in confirming the future strategic direction.
Lu Li felt slightly relieved.
I sent back another batch of my recent insights and Spirit Stone resources.
At the same time, it also accepted some new research on the Great Xia Spirit Machinery Law Artifact.
Only then did he hurriedly hang up the jade pendant.
Logically speaking, he should have also taken the opportunity to teach and guide Xu Mu and the others on their cultivation questions.
However, the rental period for the cave abode has now expired.
It was getting late, and he still had to go back and deal with Ye Chenfeng's matter.
We'll have to talk about it another time.
Lu Li straight for his cave abode.
As Foundation Establishment, he possesses abundant Spiritual Power.
The Cultivation Method that it would only take a cup of tea to return to the cave abode.
It's more than ten times faster than when we came.
Before he even approached the cave abode, his newly formed Divine Sense suddenly sensed a familiar presence...
"Uncle Ye, please have some tea. My master went to discuss some matters with Uncle Xu."
"They'll probably be back in... a little while..."
Lu Changming's intermittent voice reached Lu Li's ears.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Li lowered his body and descended towards the cave abode.
"Bang!"
With a soft sound, the cave entrance swung open.
Ye Chenfeng stood up early.
" Junior Brother Lu! You're finally back!"
"Huh... wait... your cultivation level..."
Upon seeing Lu Li's return, he paused in his speech.
Lu Li landed gracefully, his Spiritual Qi energy as deep as the ocean.
His already handsome features gained an even more ethereal quality, and his dark hair moved without wind.
The skin has a subtle, luminous sheen.
Although the spiritual pressure after Foundation Establishment was deliberately restrained, it still made Lu Changming beside him feel slightly suffocated.
"Are you going to Foundation Establishment today?"
"That's right, Senior Brother. I went to rent cave abode today to prepare for Foundation Establishment."
Lu Li clasped his hands in a fist salute and stepped inside.
Not much was explained.
On the contrary, Elder Jian found Lu Li, who had broken through to the Foundation Establishment, increasingly pleasing to the eye.
His Divine Soul was in constant turmoil.
The voice entered Ye Chenfeng's mind.
"Tsk tsk, this kid Lu is too cautious."
Although he is a bit timid, his cultivation has progressed steadily, and he is proficient in many arts.
"Wonderful, wonderful! People used to say that of all the paths in the world, the Sword Dao is supreme, but after seeing this young Lu..."
"Sometimes I even think that not engaging in fighting and killing, but simply cultivating peacefully, might not be such a bad thing in life."
Elder Jian's tone was slightly complicated.
Hearing Elder Jian sigh, Ye Chenfeng was secretly shocked. When had he ever seen this stubborn old monster show such a gentle side?
Extremely rare.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Li spoke first.
" Senior Brother Ye, I have now successfully Foundation Establishment, and I have also made some progress in the art of Dao of Artifact Refinement."
"If you wish to cultivate your sword, senior brother, you may retrieve it now."
"Sword cultivation?"
"That's right, didn't my senior brother and I make a promise years ago that there was a top-tier second-tier broken sword that needed repairing?"
"Oh, right, right, junior brother, you're already a grandmaster of weapon crafting?"
"Hmm... I was originally a first-tier Grandmaster, and now that I've successfully Foundation Establishment, as long as I familiarize myself with it, crafting a top-tier second-tier Law Artifact shouldn't be a problem."
Hearing Lu Li acknowledge his status as a Grandmaster.
Ye Chenfeng and Elder Jian were both startled.
Before Elder Jian could speak, Ye Chenfeng waved his hand and said.
"No rush, no rush. Now that you've Foundation Establishment, Junior Brother, you can familiarize yourself with second-tier artifacts first."
There's no need to rush the sword repair.
"Hmm? You're not in a rush anymore... Okay then."
He thought the other party didn't trust him, after all, he had only just broken through to the Foundation Establishment.
I don't know much about second-order artifacts, so I definitely need to familiarize myself with them.
Lu Li didn't think much of it.
Ye Chenfeng, however, hesitated slightly upon seeing Lu Li's powerful Foundation Establishment aura.
After consulting with the Elder Jian, he cast a soundproof Secret Method and spoke in a low voice.
" Junior Brother Lu, now that you have Foundation Establishment, you will soon be joining one of the Four Peaks... There is something you must be careful about."
Looking at Ye Chenfeng's cautious demeanor.
Lu Li was slightly taken aback, and asked, "Senior brother, what do you mean...?"
" Hastening the Seedlings to Immortal Ascension!"
