Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

Chapter 129 Monster Invasion
"The family is currently in a good situation, but quite a few first-tier demonic beasts have already fled from the depths of the Burning Flame Mountains and entered the family's territory."

Lu Wenxing frowned deeply, as only the Earth Flame Python and the Fire Bone Lizard were just about to break through to the third tier.

Once they successfully break through to the third tier, the situation in the Burning Flame Mountains will definitely become more chaotic, and at that time, more demonic beasts will surely rush out from the depths of the Burning Flame Mountains.

These demonic beasts may all be of the first rank, but their sheer number will still pose a significant threat to the Lu family.

“I have now gathered all the mortals of the clan to Crimson Smoke Mountain, and you have also returned with the cultivators from Azure Spirit Market. Now all the clan’s strength has been gathered at Crimson Smoke Mountain.”

Lu Wenxing sighed softly and continued, "Next, we must be on high alert and defend Chiyan Mountain!"

"The clan leader can rest assured. With the power of the second-tier superior-grade Purple Smoke Serpent Formation, even a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would find it difficult to break through the defenses of Crimson Smoke Mountain!" Lu Chengping said with a smile.

Lu Cheng'an didn't say much. After discussing it for a while, the three Foundation Establishment cultivators returned to their respective caves.

After returning to his cave, Lu Cheng'an suppressed his anxiety, made some adjustments, and continued to cultivate diligently in his cave.

Lu Cheng'an knew very well that apart from cultivation level and strength, everything else was illusory.

If the Lu family were strong enough, they wouldn't have to worry about the family's annihilation during this volcanic eruption in the Burning Flame Mountains.

Instead, they would act like sects such as the Heavenly Flame Sect, plundering cultivation resources from the eruptions of volcanoes in the Burning Flame Mountains.

Lu Cheng'an did not cultivate for very long. Five days after he led Lu Wensheng and others back to the family, a group of red-tailed wolf demons rushed to the outside of Chiyan Mountain.

This group of red-tailed wolf demons numbered nearly a hundred, and the wolf king, who was the leader, had even reached the mid-stage of the second rank.

Besides the wolf king, who was at the mid-stage of the second tier, there were three other wolf demons in the large wolf pack whose cultivation had reached the second tier.

The target of this group of red-tailed wolf demons seems to be the Lu family's Crimson Smoke Mountain. As soon as they appeared outside Crimson Smoke Mountain, they launched a fierce attack on it.

"How did such a powerful pack of wolf demons manage to break out of the Burning Flame Mountains?!"

Lu Wenxing's face was full of solemnity, because according to Zhu Yan, the demonic beasts and spirits in the Burning Flame Mountains had been recruited by the Earth Flame Python and the Fire Bone Lizard and sent into the depths of the Burning Flame Mountains.

This group of red-tailed wolf demons is much stronger than the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider clan, and since they are demon beasts, they should not be appearing outside Crimson Smoke Mountain.

The formation in Crimson Smoke Mountain was always in a semi-open state. Although the group of red-tailed wolf demons launched a surprise attack on Crimson Smoke Mountain, they failed to break through its defenses.

"Zhu Yan just sent me a message that the Fire Bone Lizard, who successfully broke through to the third rank, has been killed by True Person Xuan Kong. This happened two days ago!"

A solemn expression appeared on Lu Cheng'an's face. He said in a deep voice, "The spirit race and demon beasts summoned by the Fire Bone Lizard have scattered and escaped. This group of Red-tailed Wolf Demons may be the demon beasts that were summoned by the Fire Bone Lizard before!"

"Master Xuankong's strength is so formidable!" Lu Wenxing and Lu Chengping looked astonished, clearly this news was far beyond their expectations.

After all, they had only recently received news that the Flame Python and the Fire Bone Lizard were about to break through to the third level. They never expected that only a few days later, the Fire Bone Lizard's cultivation had already successfully broken through to the third level and died at the hands of True Person Xuan Kong.

"Clan Chief, Cheng'an, how should we deal with those red-tailed wolf demons outside the mountain gate?"

After suppressing his shock, Lu Chengping said in a deep voice, "More and more demonic beasts may rush out of the Burning Flame Mountains in the future. I think it's best to deal with this group of Red-tailed Wolf Demons as soon as possible!"

The wolf pack includes one mid-stage Tier 2 and three early-stage Tier 2 red-tailed wolves, whose strength far surpasses that of the Lu family.

However, the Lu family has the advantage of location. Crimson Smoke Mountain has the second-tier superior Purple Smoke Mystic Serpent Formation. If the four second-tier Red-tailed wolves enter the designated area, Lu Chengping is very confident that he can use the power of the formation to suppress and kill all four second-tier wolf demons.

As long as these four second-tier wolf demons are dead, no matter how many first-tier wolf demons there are, they will no longer be able to pose a threat to the Lu family.

"Brother Chengping is right, we really need to deal with these red-tailed wolf demons as soon as possible!"

A solemn expression appeared on Lu Cheng'an's face: "I also received a message from Xu Shao that the evil cultivators who entered the territory of Tianyan Sect may know that Xuan Kong Zhenren of Tianyan Sect is about to return to the sect."

Therefore, they are now more openly attacking the cultivation forces within the Tianyan Sect. Currently, five Foundation Establishment forces within the Tianyan Sect have been wiped out by those evil cultivators!

"Those heretical bandits are now approaching our area. Xu Shao warned us to be extra careful to avoid them breaching our mountain gate."

Normally, evil cultivators wouldn't dare to be so rampant. The main reason they dared to cause trouble while the Tianyan Sect was vulnerable was that all three of the Tianyan Sect's Golden Core cultivators had their powers restrained.

Because of the chaos caused by the Azure Lion Demon King in the Hong'e Mountains, there are signs of unrest throughout the cultivation world within the entire Desolate Ancient Sect territory.

These evil cultivators, who were originally hiding in the shadows, wanted to take advantage of the situation to cause chaos, quickly plunder cultivation resources, and improve their cultivation and strength!
"Then attack the Red-tailed Wolf pack immediately!"

Lu Wenxing's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly made a decision.

He glanced at Lu Chengping and Lu Chengan and said in a deep voice, "Chengping, you stay in the mountain gate to control the spirit array. Chengan and I will attract the attention of those four red-tailed wolves and lure them into the array's attack range. At that time, Chengping, you must seize the opportunity and quickly kill those four second-tier red-tailed wolves!"

There aren't many Qi Refining cultivators in the Lu family, and the pack of red-tailed wolves came on strong. At this time, the Qi Refining cultivators of the Lu family couldn't play much of a role at all.

To avoid casualties, Lu Wenxing did not make any specific arrangements for them, but only instructed Lu Chengping to mobilize Qi Refining cultivators such as Lu Wensheng at any time to assist Lu Chengping in maintaining the operation of the Chiyan Mountain formation.

"I will obey the clan chief's orders!"

After Lu Cheng'an and Lu Chengping responded, Lu Wenxing didn't waste any more time and immediately led Lu Cheng'an to speed down Chiyan Mountain.

At this moment, the Red-tailed Wolf Pack had already appeared halfway up Crimson Smoke Mountain. The Red-tailed Wolf King, a mid-stage second-tier wolf, let out a high-pitched howl the moment it sensed the presence of Lu Cheng'an and the other person, and then sped up, rushing towards Lu Cheng'an and the other person.

The physical bodies of human cultivators are extremely valuable medicines for demonic beasts to enhance their cultivation. The reason why this pack of red-tailed wolves appeared in Crimson Smoke Mountain was because they sensed the aura of human cultivators in the mountain.

"Chief, leave this mid-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf to me!"

Lu Cheng'an's gaze fell on the mid-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf. He quickly cast a spell, and the Fire Fiend Sword transformed into a streak of crimson light, stabbing towards the red-tailed wolf's waist and abdomen like lightning.

Almost simultaneously, Lu Cheng'an unleashed the Cave Fire Finger technique, attacking the head of the mid-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf.

Lu Cheng'an had cultivated both the Cave Fire Finger and Cloud Shadow Sword Technique to perfection. This was the first time he had used these two techniques in combat after achieving perfection. The Red-Tailed Wolf, at the mid-stage of the second tier, immediately stopped its charge after sensing the terrifying power contained in the fiery red finger imprint and the magic sword.

It let out an angry roar, and a blinding blood-red light emanated from its massive wolf body.

The blood-red light transformed into a ferocious wolf head, which directly bit the Fiery Sword that was thrusting towards its waist and abdomen!

With a clang of metal striking metal, the Fire Fiend Sword made a crisp sound as it collided with the Crimson Wolf Head.

Lu Cheng'an quickly cast a spell, at which point the Fire Fiend Sword trembled violently, its sharp sword energy surging, instantly splitting into several sword shadows that continued to stab at the body of the second-tier Red-tailed Wolf Demon.

This change was unexpected for the second-tier red-tailed wolf demon, and what surprised it even more was the fiery red finger mark.

The finger mark formed by the Cave Fire Finger was placed on the back of the second-tier Red-tailed Wolf. The power of the Cave Fire Finger at its perfect state was extremely terrifying.

Although the Red-Tailed Wolf Demon's cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the second tier and its physical strength was extremely formidable, its spine broke directly after being attacked by the Cave Fire Finger Seal.

Intense pain instantly spread throughout the red-tailed wolf's body. It let out an angry roar, and then a blood-red wolf fang shot out from its mouth.

The wolf fangs emitted a dense, bloody light, like a blood moon!
A serious expression appeared on Lu Cheng'an's face. He immediately cast the defensive spell Fire Dragon Seal, and a dark golden fire dragon emerged around him.

A dark golden fire dragon coiled around Lu Cheng'an's body, completely covering him.

At this moment, the blood-red wolf fang struck Lu Cheng'an's body, and the terrifying power surging from the wolf fang erupted, instantly causing countless cracks to appear in the fire dragon surrounding Lu Cheng'an's body.

"Cheng'an, watch out!"

Lu Wenxing shouted loudly. He was in a similarly difficult situation, as the remaining three early-stage second-tier red-tailed wolves were attacking him.

He only managed to avoid injury thanks to the power of the defensive talisman; otherwise, his injuries would certainly be much more severe now.

With a cracking sound, the dark golden fire dragon formed by the Fire Dragon Seal collapsed.

However, the instant the fire dragon shattered, Lu Cheng'an instantly conjured a new fire dragon to protect himself.

This is the terrifying aspect of perfected techniques; Lu Cheng'an was able to unleash the Fire Dragon Seal in the blink of an eye.

Lu Cheng'an currently cultivates three techniques that have reached the pinnacle of perfection!

After he reconstituted a fire dragon to protect himself, he simultaneously used the Cave Fire Finger and Cloud Shadow Sword Technique to continue attacking the mid-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf.

Although the cultivation level of that mid-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf was one level higher than that of Lu Cheng'an, its strength was very ordinary among demonic beasts of the same level.

Faced with Lu Cheng'an's fierce attacks, its injuries became very serious after fighting Lu Cheng'an for a quarter of an hour.

At Crimson Smoke Mountain, the Lu family cultivators, protected by the spirit array, were constantly watching the battle between Lu Cheng'an and Lu Wenxing and the red-tailed wolves outside the array.

"I'm not seeing things, am I? The one fighting the Supreme Elder is the Red-Tailed Wolf King at the mid-stage of the second tier, right? The Red-Tailed Wolf King is being suppressed by the Supreme Elder!"

…………

The Lu family cultivators on Red Smoke Mountain watched this scene in shock. They were now unsure whether the Red-Tailed Wolf King was too weak or Lu Cheng'an was too powerful.

However, when they saw their clan leader struggling against the three early-stage second-tier red-tailed wolves, they knew it was because Lu Cheng'an's strength was too formidable.

Lu Cheng'an did not notice the gazes of the cultivators in his clan. After figuring out the strength of the second-tier Red-tailed Wolf King, he was confident that he could kill it with his own strength!

"Chieftain, please hold on a little longer. Once I've slain this Red-tailed Wolf King, I'll come to your aid!"

Lu Cheng'an shouted, controlling the Fire Fiend Sword to continuously stab at the Red-Tailed Wolf King's body with the Cloud Shadow Sword Technique, while simultaneously using the Cave Fire Finger to attack the Red-Tailed Wolf King.

After noticing the situation outside the formation, Lu Chengping gave instructions to Lu Wensheng and the others, and then immediately joined the battle against the second-tier red-tailed wolves.

After Lu Chengping joined the battle, the pressure on Lu Wenxing was greatly reduced.

However, killing those three early-stage second-tier red-tailed wolves was by no means an easy task for them.

The key to breaking the deadlock lies with Lu Cheng'an. As long as Lu Cheng'an kills the mid-stage second-tier Red-tailed Wolf King, the pack of Red-tailed wolves will no longer pose any threat to the Lu family.

Lu Cheng'an's attack was extremely fierce. When the mid-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf king roared in anger, it was summoning its pack to attack Lu Cheng'an together.

Unfortunately, the three early-stage second-tier red-tailed wolves were entangled by Lu Wenxing and his companion. Although there were many first-tier red-tailed wolves, they were too weak to pose any threat to Lu Chengan.

After exchanging blows with the Red-Tailed Wolf King for a moment, Lu Cheng'an simultaneously struck the Red-Tailed Wolf's body with the Fire Fiend Sword and the Cave Fire Finger Seal.

The Red Wolf King let out a painful howl, its massive body slumped to the ground, and after giving Lu Cheng'an a resentful look, it lost all life.

After collecting the corpse of the Red-tailed Wolf King, Lu Cheng'an immediately attacked the three early-stage second-tier Red-tailed wolves.

The strength of these three early-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf demons was far inferior to that of Lu Cheng'an. In just a short while, one of the early-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf demons died at Lu Cheng'an's hands.

The remaining two early-stage second-tier red-tailed wolf demons were completely powerless against the combined attack of the three Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Lu family. In just a short while, they were all killed by the three Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Lu family.

"Elder, lead the clan's cultivators out of the mountain to hunt down those first-tier red-tailed wolf demons!" Lu Wenxing shouted.

At his command, Lu Wensheng and the other Qi Refining cultivators rushed out from within the array and quickly attacked the first-tier red-tailed wolf demons.

Lu Chengan and Lu Chengping exchanged a glance and instantly understood the clan leader's purpose.
