"You've done very well."
"Not enough." Lu Jingzhi paused for a moment, "Mom, how long has it been since I tried to break through?"
"Four full days have passed."
"During this period of time, I have completely taken care of the Niu Tian Sect."
"Not only that, your grandfather will personally build a space channel later, the purpose of which is to connect the Niu Tian Sect and the family clan."
After hearing this, Lu Jingzhi frowned tightly and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he raised his head, looked at Mu Jin, and said worriedly.
"Mother, if this space channel is really built, doesn't it mean that our family's location will be completely exposed?"
"Will this bring unexpected danger to the family?"
Mu Jin shook her head gently and patted Lu Jingzhi on the shoulder, "Don't worry."
"In fact, your great-grandmother has already considered this issue."
"After she learned about your specific situation, she immediately called together all the elders of the tribe for a meeting."
Having said this, Mu Jin paused for a moment, then continued, "After some discussion and deliberation, they finally unanimously decided to assist you at all costs."
"Not only will I help you successfully break through the bottleneck of your cultivation, but I will also fight against the demon clan and the evil soul clan together with you."
"But your great-grandmother has one condition."
Lu Jingzhi's originally tense heartstrings relaxed a little, but when he heard what Mu Jin said next, the hint of joy that had just appeared on his face instantly froze again.
He looked at his mother with a puzzled look on his face and asked impatiently, "Mom, you said that great-grandmother had another condition. What was it?"
Mu Jin took a deep breath and looked at Lu Jingzhi seriously, "This is the condition your great-grandmother proposed."
"I hope you can lead our entire family to stand upright and honorably again in this Profound Sky Continent."
After hearing this, Lu Jingzhi was stunned.
He stared blankly at his mother in front of him, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.
I never expected that Old Lady Mu would place such high hopes on me...
Seeing him in a daze, Mu Jin thought to herself that maybe the kid was frightened, so she hurried forward, reached out and gently held his arm.
"Jingzhi, are you willing to agree to this?"
Then he added: "If you don't want to, we will never force you."
Lu Jingzhi smiled, "Mom, don't worry, I'm absolutely willing!"
"If the family can regain its former glory and stand tall on this vast continent once again, it will surely be my solid backing."
After a pause, he continued, "Not to mention that with the help of my family, my chances of success in going to the ancestral realm and taking Yan An to inherit the mantle of Suzaku will definitely increase greatly."
Hearing his son's words, Mu Jin nodded slightly, "That's great, but don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Well, don't worry, mom. I'm fine."
"Then we will set off to return to the Lu Mansion tomorrow, and then go to the Tiansha Holy Palace together."
However, before Mu Jin could finish his words, a black lightning suddenly streaked across the sky and finally landed steadily next to the mother and son.
As the black lightning gradually dissipated, an elder with a thin figure, an old face but still bright eyes appeared before his eyes.
The elder clasped his fists and bowed to Lu Jingzhi, saying respectfully, "Congratulations, Sect Master, on your successful breakthrough!"
Lu Jingzhi waved his hand and said, "You're too kind. I've only made a small progress. It's a pity that I haven't been able to break through to the Sky-stepping Realm in one fell swoop."
The corner of his mouth twitched, [You still want to break through to the Sky Realm? Are you going to let us live?]
Although he was complaining in his heart, he still maintained a respectful expression on his face.
"Master, our Xuanlei Pagoda... No, it should be said that the entire Niutian Sect."
"Most of the disciples nowadays are thunder cultivators."
"In the past, in this Xuanlei Pagoda, whether they were disciples or elders, everyone would use this purple lightning bead to draw the power of thunder and lightning to accelerate their own cultivation progress."
Every time lightning is injected into the tower again, it is like adding wings to a tiger and icing on the cake for those who mainly practice thunder-based skills.
But now, the purple light thunder bead has been completely absorbed by Lu Jingzhi.
Hearing the elder's complaints and concerns, Lu Jingzhi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
After pondering for a while, he suddenly had an idea. He closed his eyes and began to mobilize the elemental power in his body.
"Xiao Lei, come out quickly."
Not long after, a dazzling flash of lightning flashed by.
A small and exquisite thunder elf, emitting purple electric light all over its body, appeared in front of everyone.
"Xiao Lei, you ate the sect's purple lightning bead."
"In that case, you must give an explanation."
"How about this, you quickly give birth to a new lotus for me to compensate them."
However, faced with Lu Jingzhi's request, the thunder elf seemed somewhat reluctant.
It first blinked its big round eyes, and then kept babbling, as if expressing its dissatisfaction and protest.
