Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

After learning about the family's current situation from Lu Wenxing, Lu Cheng'an returned directly to his cave dwelling to prepare for seclusion and cultivation, to digest the gains he had made over the years.

However, not long after he entered the cave, Shi Ningyu went directly into his cave.

“Brother An, my cultivation has broken through to the late stage of Nascent Soul, and I have some understanding of the matter of condensing a domain. However, I always feel that something is missing. I would like to try dual cultivation with you and see if I can gain any insights from it!”

Shi Ningyu frowned slightly. She originally wanted to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage after cultivating with Lu Cheng'an.

At that time, Lu Cheng'an was still in the Sacred Heart Sect, and the opportunity for her to break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm arrived at that time, so she followed her heart and broke through directly to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

After Shi Ningyu's cultivation broke through to the late Nascent Soul stage, her strength in all aspects improved significantly.

She gained a deeper understanding, especially in terms of condensing domains, but she was still just a little short of being able to condense her domains.

After receiving Lu Cheng'an's message, she was somewhat anxious. Instead of waiting for Lu Cheng'an to emerge from seclusion, she entered Lu Cheng'an's cave before he went into seclusion.

Lu Cheng'an naturally had to fulfill Shi Ningyu's request.

In fact, during his dual cultivation with Shi Ningyu, he could also digest the gains of the past years and improve his cultivation level.

After Lu Cheng'an agreed, he carried Shi Ningyu directly into the cave and began their dual cultivation life.

Over the years, Lu Cheng'an has studied various classic texts about the Nascent Soul realm in sects such as Haoyang Sect. The greatest gain he has made is his understanding of the Nascent Soul realm, which is also the main reason why his Nascent Soul realm has now expanded to twenty-four zhang.

The scriptures on the Nascent Soul realm that he read were not limited to the fire-attribute Nascent Soul realm, but also included other types of Nascent Soul realms.

During his dual cultivation with Shi Ningyu, Lu Cheng'an focused on transmitting his insights into the realm of metal.

Although Lu Cheng'an's domain is Fire Domain, he has studied various classic texts related to the Nascent Soul realm over the years and has gained a deep understanding of the Dao of Space, the Dao of Metal, and the Dao of Wood.

Moreover, according to the scriptures he had read about the Nascent Soul realm, the domain condensed by a Nascent Soul cultivator needs to be based on a power of the Great Dao. The stronger this power of the Great Dao, the more powerful the domain condensed by the Nascent Soul cultivator will be.

In addition to enhancing the power of the main Dao, the power of other Daos can also be added to the domain. As long as they are integrated with the power of the main Dao, the power of the domain can be enhanced again.

The fire domain that Lu Cheng'an has now condensed contains not only the power of the Great Dao of Fire, but also the power of the Great Dao of Space. These two powers are the fundamental forces for condensing the fire domain.

Over the years, Lu Cheng'an has also condensed the power of the Dao of Time and the Dao of Metal within the Fire Domain, which has greatly enhanced the power of the Fire Domain.

The cultivation method practiced by Shi Ningyu is the Divine Jade True Scripture, which is a metal-attribute cultivation method.

Lu Cheng'an's understanding of the Great Dao of Metal far surpasses that of Shi Ningyu. If Shi Ningyu's understanding of the Great Dao of Metal were to reach his level, she could successfully condense the prototype of the Golden Domain.

The reason it is only a prototype of the Golden Domain, and not the real Golden Domain, is because Shi Ningyu's understanding of the Dao of Space is insufficient.

Only when Shi Ningyu's understanding of the Dao of Space reaches a certain level can she completely condense the Golden Domain.

Lu Cheng'an couldn't let Shi Ningyu read the Suspended Mirror Sect's books on the Dao of Space, but when he cultivated with Shi Ningyu, he imparted his own understanding of the Dao of Space to her without reservation, which was more useful than reading the books.

Time passed slowly, and more than half a year went by in the blink of an eye.

Only then did Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu end their dual cultivation.

At this moment, Shi Ningyu sat cross-legged in Lu Cheng'an's cave. Golden light emanated from her body, which slowly spread outwards and stopped after reaching a range of two zhang.

This is the prototype of the golden domain that Shi Ningyu has condensed.

The two-zhang-wide nascent golden domain could not compare to Lu Cheng'an's twenty-zhang-wide fire domain, but even so, the formation of this two-zhang-wide nascent golden domain greatly enhanced Shi Ningyu's strength.

“Ningyu, you have now condensed the prototype of the Golden Domain. Next, you need to carefully study the Dao of Space and condense the Golden Domain into its complete form as soon as possible. At that time, the scope of the Golden Domain will expand considerably, and your strength will definitely improve even more!” Lu Chengan said with a smile.

Shi Ningyu's cultivation has now broken through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and she has now condensed a golden domain with a range of two zhang. Her strength is no weaker than that of a cultivator at the perfect Nascent Soul realm.

With him and Shi Ningyu in the Lu family, there is no one in this cultivation world who can threaten their family.

"Don't worry, Brother An, I've gained some understanding of the Dao of Space, and I should be able to meet the requirements for condensing the Golden Domain soon!" Shi Ningyu said with a hint of excitement.

Lu Cheng'an nodded slightly and said with a smile, "You don't need to worry. If there is no progress for a long time, I will take you to the spatial rift controlled by the three sects of Haoyang Sect. You can feel the power of space up close, which should be of great benefit to your improvement of the Dao of Space."

The spatial energy around that spatial rift fluctuated violently, and it was not yet the right time to enter it. If they went there now, they would have to bear certain risks.

Therefore, Lu Cheng'an allowed Shi Ningyu to comprehend it on her own. If she could not meet the requirements for condensing the Golden Domain by relying on her own strength, he would then take Shi Ningyu to the location of the spatial rift.

After Lu Cheng'an gave Shi Ningyu some instructions, Shi Ningyu left Lu Cheng'an's cave and returned to her own cave to digest the gains from her dual cultivation with Lu Cheng'an.

After Shi Ningyu left, Lu Cheng'an also entered the meditation room inside the cave to digest the gains from this dual cultivation.

Lu Cheng'an gained even more from this dual cultivation.

Because during his dual cultivation, he organized what he had learned from reading the classics over the years, and truly transformed that knowledge into his own power.

Of course, he had read far too many books over the past decades, and the knowledge contained in those books was not enough to be fully digested by relying solely on dual cultivation for half a year.

Lu Cheng'an's seclusion this time was relatively long. In addition to digesting the gains from this dual cultivation, he was also working hard to improve his cultivation level.

During this period, he took a fourth-grade high-quality Fire Element Yang-Boosting Pill, a type of pill that is only suitable for fire-attribute cultivators.

The Fire Essence Nourishing Yang Pill had already been refined by the Old Man of Ten Thousand Medicines when Lu Cheng'an borrowed books from the Haoyang Sect.

At that time, the alchemy skills of the Old Man of Ten Thousand Medicines far surpassed those of Shi Ningyu. Fourth-grade high-quality alchemy materials were quite rare, so Shi Ningyu did not refine them herself, but asked the Old Man of Ten Thousand Medicines to help her.

In addition to the Fire Essence Nourishing Yang Pill, Shi Ningyu also asked the Old Man of Ten Thousand Medicines to refine the fourth-grade superior Golden Jade Treasure Pill.

Like the Fire Essence Nourishing Yang Pill, the Golden Jade Treasure Pill is a pill used to assist late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators in improving their cultivation; the only difference is the nature of the pills.

Although it took Lu Cheng'an several decades to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, he had spent those decades studying various classic texts, so his cultivation level hadn't improved much.

Having diligently cultivated for fifteen years with the help of the Fire Essence Nourishing Yang Pill, his cultivation has improved considerably, but he is still quite far from breaking through to the Nascent Soul Perfection stage.

After fifteen years of secluded cultivation, Lu Cheng'an did not emerge from his cave. Instead, he began refining the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell and the Seven Birds Divine Fire Fan, two magical treasures. In fact, he had long been capable of upgrading these two treasures to the fourth-tier high-grade, but he had been delayed by other matters.

Both of these were Lu Cheng'an's own magical treasures, and he was very familiar with them.

Moreover, his crafting skills have now reached the top-tier fourth level, and he is capable of crafting top-tier fourth-level magic weapons and treasures. For him, crafting a high-grade fourth-level magic treasure is an extremely simple matter.

After spending more than half a year, Lu Cheng'an successfully upgraded the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell and the Seven Birds Divine Fire Fan to the fourth-grade superior quality.

He then spent more than a year upgrading the two magical treasures to the highest grade of the fourth tier.

After killing the Butterfly Demon King, he gained immense benefits from it.

Over the years, he borrowed books from sects such as the Heavenly Sword Sect and exchanged all the useless spiritual items he obtained from the Butterfly Demon King for them. He had long since collected enough materials to upgrade the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell and the Seven Birds Divine Fire Fan to the fourth-grade top quality.

After Lu Cheng'an upgraded the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell and other magic treasures to the fourth-tier top-grade, he sent a message to Shi Ningyu, saying that he planned to help Shi Ningyu upgrade the grade of her natal magic treasure to the fourth-tier upper-grade or fourth-tier top-grade.

Over the years, Shi Ningyu has been in seclusion, cultivating diligently. Through her own efforts, she has deepened her understanding of the Dao of Space and successfully condensed a true Golden Domain.

Shi Ningyu's golden domain power has now reached a range of six zhang!
With the blessing of the Golden Domain's power, Shi Ningyu's current strength completely surpasses that of the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm True Monarch Lieyang and True Monarch Tianjian.

After receiving Lu Cheng'an's message, Shi Ningyu quickly arrived at Lu Cheng'an's cave.

Lu Cheng'an did not directly help Shi Ningyu upgrade the grade of her natal magic treasure, the Divine Jade Exquisite Pagoda. Instead, he first exchanged some of his cultivation gains.

After that, Lu Cheng'an didn't waste any more time and began to help Shi Ningyu improve the grade of her natal magic weapon.

Lu Cheng'an was also very familiar with the Divine Jade Exquisite Pagoda. He did not encounter any problems in the process of upgrading the Divine Jade Exquisite Pagoda to the fourth-grade top quality.

After Lu Cheng'an successfully upgraded the Divine Jade Exquisite Pagoda to the fourth-tier top-grade, Shi Ningyu left Lu Cheng'an's cave and returned to her own cave to begin refining her natal magic weapon.

After that, Lu Cheng'an began to send messages to the newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivators of the Lu family, asking them to bring the prepared refining materials to him one by one to refine their natal magic weapons.

During the more than ten years that Lu Cheng'an was in seclusion, no new Nascent Soul cultivators were born in the Lu family.

Lu Wenxing, Lu Jinglin, and Lu Jingxiu have successfully consolidated their cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage. Moreover, the three of them rely on the Lu family, which is currently at its peak, and have long prepared the materials to upgrade their natal magic treasures to the fourth-grade low-level.

However, Lu Cheng'an was in seclusion and cultivating, so they didn't dare to disturb him.

After receiving Lu Cheng'an's message, the three of them briefly discussed it, and in the end, Lu Wenxing, as the elder, went to Lu Cheng'an's cave first.

Lu Wenxing's cultivation technique is the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Technique, which is of the wood attribute. His natal magic weapon is the Azure Emperor Divine Staff, which is carried within the technique.

The Azure Emperor's Staff was not particularly difficult to forge, and it was only a low-grade fourth-order item. Lu Cheng'an successfully forged the Azure Emperor's Staff in just two months.

Afterwards, Lu Cheng'an helped Lu Jinglin and Lu Jingxiu, the two siblings, refine their natal magic weapons.

Lu Jinglin cultivates the Taiyuan Sword Scripture, and the natal magic weapon carried in this technique is called the Taiyuan Gengjin Sword.

The cultivation technique Lu Jingxiu practiced was the Phoenix Breath Divine Illumination Scripture, and the natal magic treasure carried by this technique was the Phoenix Breath Divine Illumination Diagram.

The Taiyuan Gengjin Sword was not difficult to forge, and Lu Cheng'an successfully forged it in two months.

The Phoenix Breath Divine Illumination Diagram is relatively difficult to refine. It is a fire-attribute magic weapon with numerous fire-attribute magic arrays imprinted within it.

After activating these formations, the Phoenix Breath Divine Fire can be condensed. This fire is extremely powerful and can destroy a cultivator's nascent soul.

The flames also contain divine light, which specifically destroys the physical body of cultivators.

Lu Cheng'an also cultivated a fire-attribute technique, which made him even more adept at refining the Phoenix Breath Divine Illumination Diagram. The Phoenix Breath Divine Illumination Diagram he refined was also more powerful than those recorded in the classic texts.

After Lu Cheng'an helped Lu Wenxing and the other two refine the magic weapon, he made a special trip to see his uncle, Lu Wenhua.

Since getting married and having children, Lu Wenhua has gradually reduced the time he spends on cultivation, focusing his attention on teaching his children.

Over the years, he married several more wives and had even more children.

Lu Wenhua now has as many as 104 children, among whom Lu Chengzhuo is the most talented.

He cultivates the metal-attribute technique, the Golden Spirit Divine Light Secret Manual, which comes from the Butterfly Transformation Demon King.

Although the Butterfly Demon King was born as a demon beast, she had collected many cultivation techniques from human cultivators.

The Golden Spirit Divine Light Secret Manual is a fifth-order cultivation technique that can be cultivated directly to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. It is in no way inferior to the Heavenly Sword Manual of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Among Lu Wenhua's 104 offspring, besides Lu Chengzhuo who was exceptionally talented, Lu Chengmian was even more talented.

Among the remaining offspring, some were talented, but compared to Lu Chengzhuo and Lu Chengmian, they were far inferior.

Lu Chengzhuo was one of Lu Wenhua's earliest descendants. He is now nearly a hundred years old and his cultivation has reached the early stage of the Golden Core realm.

Lu Chengmian is much younger than Lu Chengzhuo, and his cultivation level is currently still at the Foundation Establishment stage.

She cultivates the Yuanhua Five Thunder Scripture, a thunder-attribute cultivation technique. This technique comes from the Haoyang Sect and was specially obtained by Lu Jingkun from the Haoyang Sect.

The reason for this is that there are relatively few lightning-attribute cultivation techniques.

Haoyang Sect only collected the cultivation methods from the Yuanhua Five Thunder Scripture to the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage.

However, according to Haoyang Sect, the Yuanhua Five Thunder Scripture originated from the Five Thunder Sect, an extremely powerful sect, and this technique is the Five Thunder Sect's inherited technique.

A complete set of the Yuanhua Five Thunder Scripture can be cultivated directly to the Refinement of Emptiness realm.

When Lu Cheng'an found Lu Wenhua, Lu Wenhua was holding her five-month-old son. (End of Chapter)
