Chapter 166 Third-Tier Monster Attack (Please Subscribe!)
"Thank you for telling me this information, Fellow Daoist Shi. I will be careful from now on," Lu Cheng'an said in a deep voice.

Shi Ningyu came to the Lu family with Lu Cheng'an not only to help Lu Cheng'an treat Lu Wenhua's injuries, but also to inform Lu Cheng'an of this news.

The loss of Chongxu Zhenren's physical body was a major event for the Tianyan Sect. As Foundation Establishment forces within the Tianyan Sect, the Lu family and Danding Sect were naturally also affected to some extent.

The cultivation forces within the territory of the Tianyan Sect must be even more careful. If they provoke the Tianyan Sect at this time, it is very likely to bring annihilation to their own forces.

The physical body is extremely important to cultivators. Once the physical body is lost, it is very likely to lead to the severance of one's cultivation path.

There are indeed methods for regenerating severed limbs in the cultivation world. However, the limbs that grow back using these methods will be very different from the original limbs, and will still affect the cultivator's future path.

It was for this reason that Master Chongxu used the unorthodox method of life-changing to restore his severed limbs.

Chongxu Zhenren lost his arm in a battle against the demonic beasts of the Hong'e Mountains after being summoned by the Huanggu Sect.

He used the unorthodox method of "Rebirth Technique" to repair his damaged body. Even if the Ancient Desolate Sect knew about it, they would turn a blind eye and not pay much attention to it.

After Shi Ningyu told Lu Cheng'an about these things, Lu Cheng'an arranged for her to stay in the guest cave in Chiyan Mountain.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, Shi Ningyu once again used the Divine Jade Replenishing Technique to treat Lu Wenxing's injuries.

Two days have passed, and although Lu Wenxing still hasn't woken up, his injuries have healed considerably.

After Shi Ningyu used the Divine Jade Replenishing Technique to treat Lu Wenxing's body again, the broken meridians in Lu Wenxing's body were completely restored.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, your uncle should wake up soon. I have some things to take care of, so I'll be leaving now!" Shi Ningyu said with a smile.

Because of the Tianyan Sect, Shi Ningyu now feels a sense of urgency.

She now wants to hurry to the ruins of the Divine Jade Sect so that once she obtains the Nascent Soul inheritance from the Divine Jade Sect, her cultivation will be able to break through to the Golden Core realm.

Even if something happens to the Tianyan Sect, she is confident that she can protect the Dan Ding Sect.

Lu Cheng'an did not try to stop him. After sending Shi Ningyu out of Chiyan Mountain, he immediately turned back to Lu Wenhua's cave.

Now, all the broken tendons in Lu Wenhua's body have been restored, and with the rest of the past two days, his injuries are healing very quickly.

When Lu Cheng'an returned to his uncle's cave, he saw that his uncle, who had been unconscious, had now woken up.

"Uncle, you're awake!"

Lu Cheng'an hurried to his uncle's bedside and asked anxiously, "How are you feeling now? Is there anything that's bothering you?"

"Cheng'an, don't worry, I'm fine now!"

Lu Wenhua smiled and looked at Lu Cheng'an, asking, "What is the current situation at Luofeng Mountain? Besides me, have any other clansmen been injured?"

On the day he saw Yuan Shaoyun kill Lu Wensu, he was so angry that he went to confront Yuan Shaoyun.

Unfortunately, Yuan Shaoyun didn't take Lu Wenhua seriously at all. He directly attacked and severely injured Lu Wenhua, knocking him unconscious.

Lu Wenhua remained unconscious until he woke up now. He had no idea what had happened at Luofeng Mountain after he fell into a coma.

“Uncle, don’t worry. Yuan Shaoyun didn’t go on a killing spree at Luofeng Mountain. After injuring you, he left Luofeng Mountain with the Black Gold Jade Bees!” Lu Cheng’an explained.

There are many cultivators from the Lu family on Luofeng Mountain, as well as numerous ordinary people.

The reason Yuan Shaoyun attacked Lu Wenhua and other Lu family cultivators was mainly because he wanted to seize the rare Black Gold Jade Bee, a type of demonic beast.

After all, he came from a Golden Core sect like the Heavenly Flame Sect, and was not an evil cultivator. After killing Lu Wensu, who was raising Black Gold Jade Bees, and injuring Lu Wenhua, who challenged his authority, he left directly with the Black Gold Jade Bees.

Yuan Shaoyun was not worried about retaliation from the Lu family. The Lu family was just a small Foundation Establishment force living within the territory of the Tianyan Sect, while he was a cultivator of the Tianyan Sect.

If the Lu family dares to attack him, they will surely be wiped out by the Tianyan Sect!

“Your injuries have only just begun to heal, and you are still very weak. Don’t worry about these things. Focus on taking care of yourself and don’t make me worry anymore!” Lu Cheng’an said.

"It's good that the people of Luofeng Mountain are alright!"

Lu Wenhua felt a little relieved. He smiled at Lu Cheng'an and said gently, "Cheng'an, don't worry. I will take care of my health from now on and I definitely won't let you worry anymore."

Lu Cheng'an nodded slightly. He examined his uncle's body again and, after confirming that there were no problems, left his uncle a few second-grade low-level pills to nourish his vital energy, and also gave his uncle some second-grade low-level Yuanhua Pearls.

The Yuanhua Pearl functions similarly to a cultivation aid, but this spiritual object is more potent and has no side effects.

The Spirit Clam Clan doesn't have many Yuanhua Pearls to give away, and Lu Cheng'an originally planned to obtain more Yuanhua Pearls of various grades from the Spirit Clam Clan for his clansmen to use for cultivation.

However, he did not achieve his goal. The Spirit Clam Clan would only support him to become a Golden Core cultivator, but they never said they would support his family.

Lu Cheng'an didn't make too much of a demand, only asking for some second-tier top-grade and second-tier low-grade Yuanhua Pearls.

He had already given the top-grade second-tier Yuanhua Pearl to Shi Ningyu, while these low-grade second-tier Yuanhua Pearls were prepared for his uncle.

Looking at the Yuanhua Pearl in Lu Cheng'an's hand, Lu Wenhua couldn't help but sigh. Ever since his nephew broke through to the Foundation Establishment realm, he had been supported by his nephew.

Unfortunately, his abilities are limited, and he can no longer help his nephew much.

“I will accept these Yuanhua Pearls!” Lu Wenhua did not refuse Lu Chengan’s kindness, because he knew very well that since Lu Chengan had declined, these Yuanhua Pearls would eventually fall into his hands.

"Then Uncle, please rest and recuperate in the clan. I need to focus on my cultivation, so I'll be leaving the clan now!"

According to Lu Cheng'an's original plan, he was to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage directly on Five Spirits Island, and then he would continue to go to the Fire Fiend Cold Wind Cave to temper his body and consolidate his rapidly increasing cultivation.

However, because of his uncle's situation, he had to stop his cultivation and return to his family.

Because of the actions of the Heavenly Flame Sect, Lu Cheng'an's desire to break through to the Golden Core realm has become even stronger. Although the Spirit Clam Clan has said they will support Lu Cheng'an in breaking through to the Golden Core realm, they can only provide him with financial support and cannot directly prepare spiritual items for him to form his Golden Core.

Lu Cheng'an is currently extremely wealthy, and with the support of the Spirit Clam Clan, he has the financial means to purchase Core Formation spiritual items.

However, Core Formation spiritual items are always in short supply. Even if Lu Cheng'an had the ability to buy Core Formation spiritual items, he lacked the channels and resources to acquire them, so he simply couldn't purchase them.

The Spirit Clam Clan has always been holed up in the Burning Flame Mountains, making their access to resources even more limited. Currently, they also lack any treasures that can assist human Golden Core cultivators in forming their cores.

The only channel Lu Cheng'an believed he could obtain a Core Formation Spiritual Object was the Divine Jade Sect, as mentioned by Shi Ningyu. Therefore, even after receiving support from the Spirit Clam Clan, he did not change his mind about joining the Divine Jade Sect.

After speaking with Lu Wenhua, Lu Chengan also told Lu Wenxing, and then headed straight for Wuling Island.

After entering the lava river, Lu Cheng'an made a brief stop on Green Crocodile Island and took the gold coins he had left there with him.

Jin Yuan had entered the lava river with Lu Cheng'an, but because the dangers of Wuling Island were unknown, Lu Cheng'an left Jin Yuan on Qing'e Island.

After that, he devoted himself to cultivation on Wuling Island and did not pay attention to Jin Yuan.

This time, as he passed through Qing'e Island, he planned to take Jin Yuan from Qing'e Island to Wuling Island for cultivation, as the environment on Wuling Island was much better than that on Qing'e Island.

Lu Cheng'an also planned to ask the cultivators of the Spirit Clam Clan if there was any way to quickly improve Jin Yuan's cultivation level.

His cultivation level will soon break through to the Foundation Establishment Perfection realm, at which point he will be fully capable of refining second-tier top-grade magic weapons.

However, Jin Yuan's cultivation level is still at the early stage of the second tier, and he has only recently broken through to the early stage of the second tier.

If Jin Yuan's cultivation level cannot be improved as soon as possible, then Jin Yuan's help to him will become less and less.

The Spirit Clam Clan was originally a spirit race raised by the Burning Flame Sect, so their understanding of the spirit race is definitely much greater than that of the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider.

Lu Cheng'an did not linger on Qing'e Island. After picking up Jin Yuan from Qing'e Island, he continued on to Wuling Island.

The green-skinned toads and other demonic beasts in Five Spirit Lake were indeed raised by the Spirit Clam Clan. These demonic beasts not only provided protection for the Spirit Clam Clan, but also served as their eyes.

As soon as Lu Cheng'an entered the Five Spirits Lake, he was immediately detected by the cultivators of the Spirit Clam Clan.

Therefore, after Lu Cheng'an arrived at Wuling Island, the spirit array on the island opened on its own, allowing Lu Cheng'an to enter smoothly.

"Fellow Daoist Lu looks good, so it seems the matter has been completed!"

After Lu Cheng'an led the group into Wuling Island, Chi Liu quickly appeared beside him.

She still remembered the situation when Lu Cheng'an left Wuling Island. At that time, Lu Cheng'an looked extremely angry, as if he had encountered something that made him extremely angry.

Lu Cheng'an is in much better condition now, which is why Chi Liu said that.

"Thank you for your help, Fellow Daoist Chiliu. My matter has been successfully completed!"

Lu Cheng'an looked at Chi Liu with a serious expression and said, "There is something I think I should tell you, Spirit Clam Clan: the battle between the Ancient Desolate Sect and the Demon King of the Hong'e Mountains has ended, and today, the two Golden Core cultivators, Chongxu and Longshi, from the Tianyan Sect have returned to their sect!"

"I also have some news to tell Fellow Daoist Lu. I already know what you said. Although the Demon King of Hong'e Mountain Range has given up the fight with the Ancient Desolate Sect, he has no intention of letting you human cultivators go."

The Azure Lion Demon King plans to send a group of third-tier demon beasts from the Hong'e Mountains into the Golden Core forces under the jurisdiction of the Ancient Desolate Sect. Third-tier demon beasts will also be coming from the Fen'e Mountains!

At this point, Chiliu's tone became serious.

The demon king of the Hong'e Mountains also launched several attacks on the Ancient Desolate Sect, but their attacks were all blocked by the Ancient Desolate Sect in conjunction with the cultivators within its territory.

After the battle between the demonic beasts of Hong'e Mountain Range and the Ancient Desolate Sect ended, the demon kings of Hong'e Mountain Range, including the Azure Lion Demon King, prepared to slowly erode the power of the Ancient Desolate Sect.

They intend to send third-tier demonic beasts from the Hong'e Mountains into the territory of the Ancient Desolate Sect to continuously erode the strength of the human cultivators within its borders.

There are third-tier spiritual veins in the Burning Flame Mountains, and this area is still occupied by demonic beasts.

If the plan of the Azure Lion Demon King and other fourth-tier demon kings is implemented, then third-tier demon beasts will definitely move into the Burning Flame Mountain Range, and there is a high possibility that there will be more than one third-tier demon beast.

Lu Cheng'an's face showed a look of surprise, and he asked in a deep voice, "Is this news true? How long until third-tier demonic beasts enter the Burning Flame Mountain Range?"

Putting everything else aside, the Crimson Smoke Mountain and the Burning Flame Mountain Range, where the Lu family is located, are extremely close to each other. If a third-tier demon beast from the Hong'e Mountain Range were to move into the Burning Flame Mountain Range, the Lu family would be in danger of being destroyed.

"This is news that we received from the monsters of the Burning Flame Mountain Range. The Golden Flame Centipede, the Mountain Bear of Fire Bamboo Ridge, and the Crimson Horned Python of Lava Lake are three monsters that have the potential to break through to the third rank. They all have the bloodline of the third-rank monsters of the Hong'e Mountain Range. This news came from the mouths of these three monsters."

However, their abilities were limited; they only knew that the demonic beasts of the Hong'e Mountains had this plan, but they were unsure when the demonic beasts of the Hong'e Mountains would arrive!

Chi Liu looked at Lu Cheng'an with a solemn expression: "I have already told my ancestor about this news. My ancestor is preparing to send Fellow Daoist Lu into the Burning Flame Sect ruins ahead of time. According to my ancestor, there is a spirit fire spring in the ruins."

If you cultivate the fourth-tier technique of the Burning Flame Sect, the Earth Flame True Scripture, and cultivate in the Earth Spirit Fire Spring, your cultivation speed will be more than twice as fast as in other places.

However, the ruins of the Burning Flame Sect are extremely dangerous; a slight misstep could be fatal. The Ancestor instructed me to inform you of this, so you can choose for yourself whether or not to enter the Burning Flame Sect ruins now!

Qingyi is now sending Lu Chengan into the ruins of the Burning Flame Sect, but she herself will have to pay a heavy price.

The reason she did this was that she hoped Lu Cheng'an's cultivation would break through to the Golden Core realm as soon as possible.

The main reason why Qingyi was able to survive in the Burning Flame Mountains for so long was that there had never been any cultivators with the strength of the Golden Core Realm in the Burning Flame Mountains.

If the third-tier demonic beasts of the Hong'e Mountains really settle in the Burning Flame Mountains, then Qingyi is very likely to be exposed.

If Qingyi's existence is exposed, it could bring annihilation to the Spirit Clam Clan.

However, if Lu Cheng'an's cultivation successfully breaks through to the Golden Core realm, the situation will change drastically.

At that time, Lu Cheng'an will be able to seize the Burning Flame Mountain Range and, relying on the treasures left behind by the Burning Flame Sect, will be able to completely block the attacks of third-tier demonic beasts!
