Family Cultivation: I Farm and Raise Fish under the Sea-Chapter 58 - : Annihilating the Pursuers
Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Annihilating the Pursuers
The loft at the summit of Spirit Crane Island.
Lu Li opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a turbid breath.
Feeling the mana within him advance slightly, he couldn’t help but reveal a smile; the daily intake of Spirit Rice was continuously improving his cultivation.
He got up and walked towards the outside of the loft, ready to collect the ores mined in the past few days.
Soon, he reached the pavilion at the foot of the mountain.
The surrounding miners knelt down in fright upon seeing him.

Lu Li waved his hand and gathered a pile of ore into his Storage Bag, about to turn away.
Suddenly, the Array vibrated violently, with waves of light rippling like water across the screen, flickering in and out.
“Not good, we’re under attack!”
At that moment, Yan Muyun flew down quickly towards the foot of the mountain, shouting loudly on his way, his sonorous voice echoing all around.
It didn’t take long before he arrived near Lu Li, his face full of vigilance as he looked outside the Array.
Lu Li had already reacted the instant the Array fluctuated.
He immediately took out the control Token and rapidly cast spell after spell, quickly stabilizing the Array somewhat.
Yan Muyun, who was beside him, did not dare to delay either, quickly taking out his Token to stabilize the Array.
“Mr. Lu, we must go to the center of the island and meet up with the other Cultivators to see who dares to attack our Array.”
His expression was icy.
Lu Li nodded and then the two of them flew towards the center of the island.
It didn’t take long before they arrived at an open ground in the center of the island.
By now, the Cultivators of various families had already gathered, led by Wang Siping, all watchfully eyeing the area beyond the Array.
Looking in the direction of their gaze, Lu Li was instantly alarmed.
He saw a large group of Cultivators standing densely outside the Array, all in black robes, exuding an oppressive aura.
He scanned them and noticed there were four Cultivators at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm and more than a dozen in the late stages.
The man at the forefront had an ominously cold aura with a sinister face.
“If you know what’s good for you, open the Array quickly and leave your Storage Bags behind, and I will let you go without harm.”
The sinister man spoke very arrogantly.
“Hmph! Dream on, you Demon Path filth!”
Wang Siping sneered disdainfully; he didn’t believe the enemy’s lies. If they opened the Array, their lives would be in jeopardy.
Then he said to Lu Li and the others nearby, “Fellow Cultivators, do not panic. I have sent out a distress signal; we only need to hold on for half an hour.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Chen Tianqi, however, wore a somewhat strange expression.
Outside the Array, the sinister man did not get angry upon hearing this, but instead showed a mysterious smile.
“I’ve already given you a chance. Now, don’t bother begging for mercy.”
“Attack!”
Following the lead man’s command, the Demon Cultivators each brought out their Magic Artifacts to attack the Array, and all at once demonic smoke billowed and malevolent auras wildly sprayed everywhere.
“I implore all Cultivators to stabilize the Array immediately; reinforcement will soon arrive.”
Wang Siping shouted loudly, then sent spell after spell into the control Token.
The Token then emitted dazzling light and surged towards the Array.
The others, not daring to neglect, quickly followed suit, except for Chen Tianqi, who remained still.
Lu Li, controlling the Array Formation Token, looked at Chen Tianqi with a calm expression, his gaze resembling that of looking at a dead man.
He had not found an opportunity to kill this man until now, but with the situation at hand, it was like deliverance had come to him.
Blaming everything on the Demon Path villains seemed just perfect.
“Chen Tianqi, what are you doing!”
Seeing him motionless, Wang Siping shouted angrily; with one less gate, the Eight Gates Locking Sky Array’s power was greatly diminished, and it would likely not hold up for long against the Demon Cultivators.
Even another Cultivator from the Chen Family looked puzzled.
With a pained expression, Chen Tianqi said, “Fellow Cultivators, an old injury of mine has resurfaced, and there seems to be a problem with my Cultivation Technique; I can hardly mobilize any mana…”
Everyone exchanged uneasy glances, their eyes starting to flicker.
None of them were fools; whether Chen Tianqi’s words were true no longer mattered. The breach of the Array seemed inevitable, and they needed to consider how to break out of the encirclement.
Seeing Chen Tianqi’s explanation, Lu Li sneered repeatedly in his heart.
Yan Muyun also wore a look of fear; with his low cultivation, it seemed unlikely he would be able to escape.
Just then, the Array started shaking violently, clearly nearing its limit with one gate missing.
Outside, the group of Demon Cultivators looked at the group inside with crazed, murderous intent.
“Fellow Cultivators, take care!”
Wang Siping, realizing that the Array could not sustain much longer, openly said his farewells to the group.
He then coldly looked at Chen Tianqi, “I will report this matter to the family, and justice will be served in time.”
Chen Tianqi’s expression remained very calm, his mind already filled with towering killing intent.
He had no regrets for embracing the ways of demon cultivation, as long as he could eliminate his arch-enemy, everything was worth it.
At that moment, as everyone had their own thoughts, the demon cultivators outside the array were preparing to give the array one final strike.
“Kill!”
The sinister-looking man led the attack, and suddenly a soul banner shaped magical artifact appeared in his hand.
With mana unleashed, countless yin spirits flew out from the magical artifact, rolling menacingly towards the array.
“BOOM…”
A massive collision sounded through the skies, various magical artifacts instantly slammed into the array light screen, causing the array to violently shake, its light dimming drastically.
“Zzz…”
After holding up for only a few breaths, the array was finally breached.
“Go!”
In the instant the array was broken, Wang Siping immediately took off in a tunneling light towards the southeast, as fast as lightning, showing great expertise.
The rest did not fall short, each finding their direction and fleeing in all directions.
“Send a few to loot this place, the rest follow me in pursuit.”
The sinister-looking man issued the command, and then led a group of cultivators in the chase.
Lu Li rode his tunneling light, speeding towards the northwest.
Looking in Chen Tianqi’s direction, which wasn’t far to the true north, he solemnly settled on a plan in his mind.
He could feel the three late-stage Qi Refinement and one peak Qi Refinement demon cultivators pursuing him from behind, but he wasn’t in a hurry, just leading them on, continuing his flight.
After fleeing for about another ten miles or so, Lu Li suddenly stopped, standing quietly above the sea surface, watching the group of demon cultivators approaching from behind.
A moment later, the four stopped nearby, surrounding Lu Li completely.
The leader at peak Qi Refinement Realm had a chilling face: “Kid, you can’t escape, give up the resistance, and I’ll grant you a swift end. Otherwise, you’ll get to taste my Fire Refining Demon Soul…”
The other three demon cultivators also sneered, as if they were looking at a corpse.
Lu Li wasted no more words, directly summoning the Aminokaze sword.
“Cling…”
With mana activated, the flying sword exuded fiercely sharp Sword Qi, carrying a powerful aura as it lunged at the demon cultivators ahead.
At the same time, he slapped the Spiritual Beast Bag and released Iron Pillar.
The several zhang long serpent appeared instantly on the sea surface, radiating astonishing killing energy.
All this happened in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, the leading demon cultivator’s face changed dramatically.
“Damn it, this guy is at peak Qi Refinement!”
He hurriedly summoned his Defensive Magical Artifact to guard, while the other three demon cultivators were also shocked, their breaths stifled by the overwhelming spiritual pressure.
Even the giant serpent demon beast radiated an imposing aura, making everyone feel an irresistible force.
“BOOM…”
In an instant, the Aminokaze sword reached the leading demon cultivator, and with a loud noise, the opponent’s shield artifact was swept away.
The man immediately felt an overwhelming force, as if his chest was pressed by a huge boulder.
“Not good!”
He looked terrified, the depth of this person’s mana was rarely seen in his life, comparable to a True Disciple of the Demon Sect.
He hurriedly circulated his mana, preparing to stabilize his Defensive Magical Artifact.
After one strike from Lu Li, the opponent was already struggling to fend off, Lu Li once again fully operated the flying sword, activating a secret technique, and a huge sword light appeared on the sword body.
Then, as quick as lightning, it struck towards the leader of the demon cultivators’ head.
“Ah…”
With a scream, the man was split in two amidst fear, his blood dyeing the small patch of sea below red.
All of this happened in an instant.
The other three demon cultivators saw their leader couldn’t even withstand a single move and were instantly terrified.
“Run!”
The three of them shouted.
But before they could react, the Aminokaze sword instantly transformed, turning into numerous enormous sword shadows that enveloped the three demon cultivators.
“This is… Sword Array!”
The three men were scared pale, their voices trembling.
They had ambushed countless Qi Refinement cultivators, but this was the first time they encountered such a terrifying figure, perhaps even a True Disciple of the Demon Sect was no match.
Lu Li didn’t waste time, directly drove the Sword Array, countless sharp Sword Qi whirling through the void at the enemies, the killing aura within the array rolling like smoke.
The three desperately operated their Defensive Magical Artifacts, but in a moment, they were churned into pieces by the Sword Qi.
Lu Li collected their Storage Bags, activated the Hidden Spirit Technique, morphed into a man with a gloomy face, then changed into a black robe, his entire presence growing eerily ghostly.
After doing all this, he turned and pursued in Chen Tianqi’s direction.
In a few breaths, he disappeared above the sea.
