Sitting in the main hall, Liu Mufeng and his family were chatting together.
“Father, Dad has been in seclusion for fifty years and is about to come out, right?” Liu Xuan asked as he looked at his Father.
“En, it should be soon. 50 years outside, 500 years in the dimension.”XiaoXu had good cultivation qualifications, and in addition, he had prepared enough treasures this time, including immortal crystals, spiritual water, and pills. He thought he was about to pass the level.
“I don’t know if it’s possible to encounter lightning strikes here.” Thinking of this, Shi Lian couldn’t help but frown.
“I hope so, then my Dad can become a level nine cultivator!. Liu Xuan was happy to think that one of his Fathers would soon become a level nine cultivator.
“Alas, 50 years have passed, and almost all the gifts from the first level of survival of the fittest have been taken away.” Speaking of this, Xiaoyuan sighed repeatedly. Now, Boss Jiang, Bai Shu, Xiaoxiao, and Pangpang were all in seclusion, and the good opportunities that his Master had obtained were all given to them. She was afraid there’s no point in advancing to level nine on her own.
“Don’t worry Xiaoyuan, if we can win the next level of the Alchemy Arts competition in the hundreth year, I think you can also get an opportunity. Then, that will be left for you to advance to level nine.” Liu Mufeng said as he looked at his beast pet.
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyuan couldn’t help but frown. “But Master, you haven’t advanced to level nine yet.”
“I’m not in a hurry, you guys can advance first. I also have to participate in the Alchemy Art Competition and Poison Art Competition. I don’t have time to go into seclusion.” Liu Mufeng smiled and responded.
The first stage was the ‘survival of the fittest’, where every Palace was either filled with toxins, mechanisms, and puppets, and each was fraught with great danger. Moreover, the cultivators were like wolves and tigers.XiaoXu had already gone into seclusion. If he, as the Head of the family, also went into seclusion, wouldn’t the family be in chaos? So, in the first stage, he could not go into seclusion for any reason. The second stage was the Alchemy Art Competition, and he could not be absent. The third stage was the Poison Art Competition, and he could not be absent as well, so he was destined not to go into seclusion for the first three hundred years. He could only wait until the final stage, which was the Crafting Art Competition.
“Oh!” Upon hearing her Master say so, Xiaoyuan nodded.
“This Child is incompetent, unable to share Father’s worries, unable to let his Father have peace and go into seclusion.” Speaking of this, Liu Xuan felt very guilty. He felt that if he could handle it alone, then his Father would be able to seclude himself with peace of mind. However, he did not have such skills, and he did not even know the ancient seal script. He was really feeling useless.
“No, Son, don’t say that, you’re already great.” Liu Mufeng smiled and encouraged him. Xuanxuan was a diligent and studious child. At a young age, he was already a level eight alchemist and a level eight poison refining master. Although his alchemy and poison techniques were not as good as his own, he had already done very well. As a Father, he was very, very satisfied with his Son.
“Yeah, you’re very good. Don’t always say you’re not good, I don’t like listening to it.” Xiaoyue said, dissatisfied as he rubbed against his lover’s embrace.

“En, killings have occurred frequently in the past fifty years. Over a thousand people have now turned into hundreds. Half of them have died, and those who haven’t died are naturally very cautious.” Liu Mufeng nodded and expressed understanding.

“We won’t mind them, they can fight as much as they like, and make as much noise as they like.But if you want to kill us, you must pay the price.” Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but squint his eyes.
To be honest, Liu Mufeng came here to find opportunities, not to kill. So, he never thought of killing people in the same yard to get an opportunity. But while he didn’t think so, others did. Like the Yu family. Liu Mufeng has encountered many people in the past fifty years, unfortunately, these people who wanted to kill them were ultimately killed by Liu Mufeng and his group.
“Father is right. Just because we don’t kill doesn’t mean we’re easy to bully. If anyone dares to come and die, they won’t be spared.” Nodding, Liu Xuan also said the same. They would not cause trouble, but they were not afraid of it either.
“I don’t think anyone dares to come to us. We’ve been killing those troublemakers for fifty years. Ordinary people dare not come.” Xiaoyue snorted contemptuously. Those people used to see that Mufeng and his companions were all level eight cultivators, so they thought they were soft persimmons and always wanted to pinch them. However, later on, everyone who came to them was wiped out by them, so no one dared to come.
“Yeah, they know we have poison and dare not come.” Xiaoyuan nodded and said the same.
“It would be nice if they came, we could kill them and get some resources. I can advance to the second level of the Void Immortal.” Jin Xiao sighed lightly. After calculating, he has advanced to level nine for a hundred years already, but no matter how hard he cultivated, his strength was still stuck at the first level of the Void Immortal, which made him very frustrated.
“Don’t worry, cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight.” Liu Mufeng said helplessly as he looked at Jin Xiao on his shoulder.
“Hmm!” Jin Xiao nodded but still felt that he should kill more people to gain some opportunities. Compared to hard work, he naturally advanced faster through organic opportunities.
Everyone was speaking when Liu Mufeng received a message from his lover that he had passed the level and was coming out. Upon receiving this message, Liu Mufeng was very happy and directly released his wife.
“XiaoXu, how do you feel?” Liu Mufeng smiled as he looked at his wife standing in front of him.
“En, I feel great.” Jiang Xu smiled and said everything was fine.
“Dad, you’re out of seclusion.” Liu Xuan quickly stood up and saluted his Father, whose breath was fluctuating and he was on the verge of promotion.
“En.” Jiang Xu nodded and looked at his lover. “Mufeng, I think I’m going to advance, but here…”
Before Jiang Xu could finish speaking, his whole person was jerked into the air, tearing apart the barrier set up by Liu Mufeng, Jin Xiao, and Xiaoyue, and flew out of the palace.
“XiaoXu!” With a startled cry, Liu Mufeng quickly chased his wife out of the palace. Others also hurriedly flew out to follow.
Entering the courtyard, everyone saw that Jiang Xu was like a kite with a broken string, flying above the Palace, more than thirty meters away from the Palace below and was floating unsteadily in mid air.
“XiaoXu!” Leaping forward, Liu Mufeng flew directly over, but only after leaving the ground ten meters, he was directly hit back by the protective formation outside the Palace.
“This…” Liu Mufeng looked depressed as he fell to the ground. Before they could fly over again, Jiang Xu’s lightning tribulation had already arrived.
Because it was deep in the sea, no one could see the thunderclouds, but everyone could see the lightning strikes. Moreover, everyone could hear the deafening thunder clearly.
“It’s lightning, Daddy’s lightning tribulation!” Liu Xuan couldn’t help but frown as he looked at his Daddy in mid air.
“Nine lightning tribulations, I hopeXiaoXu can pass them smoothly.” Looking at Jiang Xu in the middle of the sky, Xiaoyue silently prayed for him to pass the tribulation smoothly.
“Surprisingly, it was a lightning tribulation. No wonder Boss Jiang was pulled out of the protective barrier.” Xiaoyuan expressed understanding.
Looking at his lover crossing the tribulation in mid air, Liu Mufeng frowned deeply and his heart was also very anxious. To advance to the realm of Void Immortal, one needed to go through nine lightning tribulations. When Xiaoyue and Jin Xiao advanced, half of their lives were almost robbed because of the intensity. This lightning tribulation was very difficult to handle. He just hopedXiaoXu could be safe and sound.
Jiang Xu’s advancement was not insignificant, and soon attracted other cultivators. However, when everyone arrived at the Palace gate, they saw Liu Mufeng and his group, and none of them dared to break in.
After fifty years of hard work, Liu Mufeng and his group had long been renowned. Many people knew that among the competitors this time, there was a Father and Son duo who were both alchemists and poison masters, who were very difficult to provoke.
“It’s a member of Dong Feipeng’s family who has advanced.” (Dong Feipeng was a fake name for Liu Mufeng and many people knew that Liu Mufeng was called this name.)
“It’s a promotion to Void Immortal, and not a promotion to Immortal King. It’s no big deal.”
“That’s right, the Father and Son of Dong Feipeng are so amazing. It’s not surprising that they can get the opportunity to help their partner advance.”
“Hmm, yes, yes!”
Standing in the crowd, watching Jiang Xu advance, Xiao Yi couldn’t help but squint his eyes. Fifty years ago, Dong Feipeng’s companion was only at the peak of level eight strength. He never expected him to advance to level nine in just fifty years. The luck of Dong Feipeng’s family was really good.
“Third Brother, that Jiang Xu has advanced.” Xiao Wen said sourly as he watched Jiang Xu advance.
“En, he has advanced, it’s quite fast.” Xiao Yi nodded and felt that Dong Feipeng and his group were quite impressive.
“There’s nothing remarkable about it, it’s just a pile of opportunities.”
“Yeah, it must have been built by opportunities.”
Upon hearing the sour words of two eighth level cultivators beside her, Xiao Fangfang couldn’t help but narrow her eyes. She thought:These people, if they can’t eat grapes, they say grapes are sour. Fifty years ago, Jiang Xu was indeed at the peak of Level 8 strength, but his strength did not reach great perfection. It is reasonable to say that he should not have advanced to Level 9 so quickly! Is the other party’s cultivation qualification so good?
Seeing Jiang Xu, who had only advanced to level nine in fifty years, and thinking about the difficult days their siblings had lived over the past fifty years, Xiao Fangfang felt somewhat jealous of those people.
