Chapter 294 Breaking through the Nascent Soul
Cultivation resources in the cultivation world are limited, especially for cultivation places like Qingzhou and Hezhou, which are cut off from the outside world.
Even if Nascent Soul sects like the Ancient Desolate Sect possess the methods for tempering the physical body and soul, they will not easily pass these methods on.
Even within the sect, these methods are extremely precious, and only the sect's Nascent Soul seedlings are qualified to cultivate them.
Although Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu came from humble backgrounds, they had good fortune after embarking on their cultivation journey, obtaining techniques such as the Great Sun Soul Refining Technique and the True Yang Body Refining Technique to temper their souls and bodies.
However, this type of method is extremely difficult to practice, and the process is also extremely dangerous.
Lu Cheng'an was only able to successfully cultivate these two techniques because he had an external advantage. He then passed on his experience to Shi Ningyu, allowing her to successfully cultivate these two techniques as well.
The Burning Flame Sect should have these two methods in its lineage, but the missing parts are precisely these two most important aspects.
Lu Cheng'an's physical body, magical power, and divine soul have all reached the peak of the Golden Core realm. If he were to refine the power of the Yin Moon Soul Mushroom, his probability of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm would reach 80% to 90%, or even 100%.
Nearly half a year had passed since Lu Cheng'an began studying the recorded images of the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Ancient Desolate Sect. He then put away all the records and jade slips related to breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, and began to calmly adjust his state to prepare for the breakthrough.
It took Lu Cheng'an two months to adjust his state. When his mind was calm and there were no fluctuations, he took out the Yin Moon Soul Mushroom sealed in the jade box.
Then he refined the Yin Moon Soul Mushroom and began attempting to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
When Lu Cheng'an was practicing the Earth Flame True Scripture, the rich spiritual energy, fire evil, fire essence, and fire poison power emanating from the Five Spirit Lake were all absorbed into his body.
After being refined by the Earth Flame True Scripture, these powers instantly transformed into surging magical energy that entered his dantian.
At this moment, the magical power in Lu Cheng'an's dantian surged like a raging tide, constantly washing over the round, golden elixir.
Under the constant erosion of magical power, the golden elixir suddenly emitted a cracking sound.
In an instant, the golden core shattered completely, but an extremely pure primordial energy surged out from the broken golden core and directly rushed into Lu Cheng'an's sea of consciousness.
This pure primordial energy directly merged with Lu Cheng'an's soul in his sea of consciousness. At this moment, the soul power surged with dark golden light and gradually transformed into a nascent soul.
This process was extremely slow. Lu Cheng'an was completely absorbed in the transformation of his soul into a nascent soul, and completely forgot about the passage of time.
While Lu Cheng'an was focused on breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, apart from Shi Ningyu, who knew about Lu Cheng'an's situation, all the other cultivators in the Lu family remained as usual.
Inside Shi Ningyu's cave, Shi Ningyu's face was full of worry.
Ever since she learned that Lu Cheng'an had begun to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, her emotions had never been at peace.
She was constantly worried about Lu Cheng'an.
Breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm is extremely dangerous for a Golden Core cultivator. A slight mistake can result in the shattering of the Golden Core and the dissipation of the soul.
Meanwhile, in the Yunling Mountains, tens of thousands of miles away, the injuries to the Nascent Soul of True Lord Tianhuang were finally about to heal.
This time, not only has his Nascent Soul injury recovered, but even the Black-Striped Sky Locust he raised at the early stage of the fourth rank is about to recover.
He had already planned that once his Nascent Soul injury was healed and the injuries of the early-stage fourth-order Black-Patterned Locust were healed, he would directly attack the Lu family.
Lu Cheng'an was unaware of these matters, and thus he was now at a crucial moment in his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm.
The power of the core nurtured by Lu Cheng'an's golden core is extremely strong, and his own soul is also extremely powerful. After these two powers are combined, it will be more conducive to the transformation of his soul into a nascent soul.
Lu Cheng'an didn't know how much time had passed; he only felt that his soul and the power of his inner core were rapidly transforming into a nascent soul after they merged.
The nascent soul was the size of an infant, and looked exactly like Lu Cheng'an.
After the nascent soul in Lu Cheng'an's sea of consciousness was fully formed, a pure white flame surged out from inside the nascent soul.
"Pure Yang Fire Calamity!"
This is the tribulation that cultivators must go through to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Only by being tempered by the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation can one truly break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
After the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation, a cultivator's Nascent Soul power will be greatly enhanced, and ordinary flames will hardly be able to harm the Nascent Soul anymore.
In an instant, the pure white flames completely enveloped Lu Cheng'an's nascent soul.
At this moment, Lu Cheng'an felt an indescribable pain, but this pain was not much stronger than the pain he had experienced when he cultivated the Great Sun Soul Refining Technique before, and he could easily endure it.
After a short while, Lu Cheng'an endured the pain brought on by the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation and began to carefully examine the changes in his nascent soul.
He sensed wisps of black mist rising from his nascent soul under the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation. These black mists were instantly burned into nothingness under the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation.
The ancient texts contain detailed records of this power, which is the cold and yin energy contained within a cultivator's nascent soul. The Pure Yang Fire Tribulation aims to refine this cold and yin energy within a cultivator's nascent soul.
This refining process is extremely slow, so every time a Nascent Soul cultivator breaks through a minor realm, they must undergo a pure Yang fire tribulation.
Lu Cheng'an sat motionless, letting the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation continuously burn his nascent soul.
This situation lasted for nearly three days. As the power of the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation slowly dissipated, Lu Cheng'an's Nascent Soul state also underwent significant changes.
Within the sea of consciousness, the infant-sized Nascent Soul sat cross-legged, with three pure white runes appearing at its navel.
These three pure white runes are traces left by the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation. One of the three runes is solid, one is half solid and half illusory, and the other is completely illusory.
For Lu Cheng'an to break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage, in addition to having sufficient magical power, he also needs to completely transform the remaining two illusory runes into solid runes.
Only in this way can one safely survive the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation of the mid-Nascent Soul stage; otherwise, one will be burned to ashes by the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation of the mid-Nascent Soul stage.
"The Pure Yang Fire Tribulation has passed, and I am now a Nascent Soul cultivator!"
Upon sensing the change in his cultivation level, Lu Cheng'an's face immediately lit up with excitement.
In Qingzhou and Hezhou, where the Lu family is located, cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage are already among the most elite.
After his cultivation broke through to the Nascent Soul realm, he finally had some ability to protect himself in the ensuing chaotic battles between the cultivators of Qingzhou, Hezhou, and Taizhou.
Unlike now, when encountering an ordinary early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator like True Monarch Tianhuang, there's no need to worry about the destruction of one's family. Thinking of this, Lu Cheng'an sighed. He couldn't wait to check the changes after his cultivation breakthrough, so he took out his communication artifact and sent a message to Shi Ningyu and Lu Wenxing that his cultivation had successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul realm.
He specifically instructed the two men to only inform a few Golden Core cultivators in the Lu family about his successful breakthrough in cultivation, and not to let too many other cultivators know about it for the time being.
Lu Cheng'an has no plans to return to the Lu family; he intends to continue his secluded cultivation in the Five Spirits Lake.
If True Monarch Tianhuang intends to continue attacking the Lu family, he must take advantage of their unpreparedness and kill True Monarch Tianhuang, a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage, as much as possible.
A moment later, Lu Cheng'an put away the communication artifact and began to examine the changes in his cultivation level after breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.
The first thing he checked was the change in lifespan. When he was in the Golden Core stage, he had a lifespan of three thousand years. Now that his cultivation has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, his lifespan has doubled to seven thousand two hundred years.
Generally, cultivators in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm only have a lifespan of three to five thousand years. After that, for each small breakthrough a Nascent Soul cultivator makes, their lifespan will increase by two to five hundred years.
Once one's cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul stage, their lifespan will be at most eight thousand years.
Lu Cheng'an's cultivation has just broken through to the Nascent Soul realm, but his lifespan has already reached 7,200 years.
It's conceivable that once his cultivation breaks through to the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm, it's not impossible for his lifespan to exceed ten thousand years.
Lu Cheng'an is only 216 years old, which is only a small part of his 7,200-year lifespan. He is still very young.
After examining the changes in his lifespan, Lu Cheng'an became excited once again.
After a while, his excitement subsided, and he began to continue examining the changes in himself.
"His physique is still the Fire Virtue Body, but he has gone from having initial control over flames to having complete control over flames."
Lu Cheng'an frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he left his secluded cave and entered the Five Spirits Lake.
Wuling Lake is a lava lake, and surging crimson flames can be seen everywhere on its surface.
After secretly examining the changes in his body, Lu Cheng'an had a thought, and the flames surging in the Five Spirits Lake quickly converged on his body.
These flames swirled around Lu Cheng'an's body, transforming into various shapes under his control.
A moment later, Lu Chengan returned to his cave.
The experiment just now gave Lu Cheng'an a deeper understanding of the meaning of controlling flames. He is now like a king of fire, able to manipulate flames at will and mobilize their power.
Moreover, his power in using fire-attribute divine abilities such as the Myriad Flames Burning Heaven Palm and the Returning Origin Fire Fiend Seal has been greatly enhanced.
"I wonder if my ability to control flames can weaken attacks of fire attribute power?"
Lu Cheng'an murmured to himself. After thinking for a moment, he suppressed the thought. He couldn't find any Nascent Soul cultivators who also practiced fire-attribute techniques to attack him.
He then checked his cultivation techniques, minor supernatural abilities, and his natal fire.
As his cultivation level improved, the techniques and minor supernatural abilities he practiced also changed.
First, he needs to learn the cultivation method for the Nascent Soul stage of the Earth Flame True Scripture. The jade slip containing the cultivation method is currently stored in his personal storage artifact. He needs to study it before he can begin cultivating.
Secondly, there were the minor supernatural abilities he had previously cultivated, such as the Myriad Flames Burning Heaven Palm, which were all included in the Earth Flame True Scripture.
The minor supernatural abilities attached to the Nascent Soul realm cultivation techniques have also been transformed into supernatural abilities. However, it is not an easy thing to transform these minor supernatural abilities into supernatural abilities.
To transform minor supernatural abilities like the Myriad Flames Burning Heaven Palm into true supernatural abilities, one needs to refine a large amount of fire elemental energy, and also requires some fourth-tier fire-attribute treasures to assist in cultivation.
The underground magma river beneath the Burning Flame Mountains is naturally rich in fire elemental energy. Relying on the fire elemental energy in the underground magma river, Lu Cheng'an can transform all the minor supernatural abilities like the Myriad Flames Burning Heaven Palm into supernatural abilities.
However, what is needed to transform a minor supernatural power into a true supernatural power is not only fire elemental energy, but also a corresponding fourth-tier fire attribute treasure.
After the fourth-order fire vein of the Five Spirits Lake was formed, it also gave birth to several fourth-order fire attribute treasures. Among these fire attribute treasures are fire attribute treasures suitable for cultivating the Myriad Flames Burning Void Palm and the Earth Flame Myriad Manifestations Body.
The Great Sun Soul Refining Technique and the Great Sun Golden Flame are divine soul secret techniques, and Lu Cheng'an can still cultivate these two divine soul secret techniques even after reaching the Nascent Soul realm.
However, at this time, they are no longer refining the cultivator's soul, but rather the cultivator's nascent soul.
The power of the Nascent Soul is naturally greater than that of the Divine Soul, so the Great Sun Soul Refining Technique and the Great Sun Golden Flame have a slightly reduced effect on tempering the Nascent Soul.
Lu Cheng'an's smooth passage through the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation was largely due to his previous cultivation of the Great Sun Soul Refining Technique and the Great Sun Golden Flame, two secret soul techniques.
After surviving the Pure Yang Fire Tribulation, he gained a deeper understanding of these two divine soul techniques. He felt that all he needed to do was patiently deduce them to be able to deduce the Great Sun Soul Refining Technique and the Great Sun Golden Flame Divine Soul Technique, or more precisely, the Nascent Soul Techniques, which were suitable for him to cultivate at the Nascent Soul stage.
Lu Cheng'an naturally didn't have time right now, so after considering it briefly, he kept the matter to himself.
His natal fire is still the Pure Glazed Heavenly Fire, but its power has been greatly enhanced.
If a Nascent Soul cultivator's fourth-tier magic weapon or magic treasure is burned by the Pure Glazed Heavenly Fire, the runes imprinted inside can still be easily destroyed.
If combined with the Minor Divine Power True Fire Spirit-Suppressing Technique, the damage of the Pure Glazed Heavenly Fire to fourth-tier magic weapons and treasures will be greatly increased.
The True Fire Spirit-Suppressing Technique is not a minor supernatural power attached to the Earth Flame True Scripture; this minor supernatural power was obtained by Lu Cheng'an from the Burning Flame Sect's inheritance.
The Burning Flame Sect's lineage also includes the True Fire Spirit-Suppressing Technique, a divine power corresponding to the Nascent Soul realm.
Lu Cheng'an will not cultivate this divine ability for the time being. He needs to first successfully cultivate the two divine abilities, Earth Flame Myriad Forms Body and Myriad Flame Burning Heaven Palm.
Because these two supernatural abilities come from the Earth Flame True Scripture, the cultivation technique he practiced, they are the most suitable supernatural abilities for him, and the power of these two supernatural abilities is also stronger than the True Fire Spirit-Binding Technique.
After examining the changes that his cultivation had brought about after breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, Lu Cheng'an gradually calmed down and began to consolidate his newly achieved cultivation.
At the same time, the Lu family.
Upon receiving Lu Cheng'an's message informing them that Lu Cheng'an had successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul realm, Lu Wenxing and Shi Ningyu were extremely excited. (End of Chapter)
