Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

The attitudes of True Lord Tianhuo and True Lord Bixiao were quite firm. After exchanging pleasantries with the two, Lu Cheng'an put away the fourth-grade spiritual materials again.

"I urge you two fellow Daoists to keep a close eye on the situation of the Sand Demons in the Vast Sea Desert. If there are any signs of the Sand Demons reviving, please inform me immediately. I will then take action to severely injure them once again!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile.

Lu Cheng'an knew the reason why True Lord Tianhuo had given him so many fourth-tier spiritual items: True Lord Tianhuo and his companion wanted him to completely eliminate the sand demons of the Vast Sea Desert.

What Tianhuo Zhenjun and the other two didn't know was that even if they didn't use these fourth-tier materials, he would eventually defeat the sand demons in the Vast Sea Desert, because that was where his opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul realm lay.

"Please rest assured, Fellow Daoist Lu, we will keep a close eye on the situation of the sand demons in the Vast Sea Desert. If those sand demons make any unusual moves, we will immediately notify you!"

When Tianhuo Zhenjun and the other person heard Lu Cheng'an mention the sand demons of the Han Hai Desert, their faces lit up with joy, and they quickly made a promise to Lu Cheng'an.

"Then I'll have to trouble you two fellow Daoists!"

Lu Cheng'an smiled slightly and said, "I have something to attend to right now and cannot stay in Yanzhou any longer. We'll keep in touch later!"

As soon as Lu Cheng'an finished speaking, the clouds beneath his feet surged, carrying his body as he sped towards the Black Abyss.

"With Lu Cheng'an's assurance, I finally feel a little relieved. I hope he can really get rid of the sand demons in the Vast Desert completely!"

Why would he travel such a long distance to help us get rid of the sand demons in the vast desert? Does he have another purpose?

"You don't need to worry about that. Even if he has ulterior motives, nothing could be worse than the sand demons of the Vast Desert completely invading Yan Province!"

…………

After Lu Cheng'an left, True Lord Tianhuo and True Lord Bixiao had a chat. Although they had some concerns, they were generally happy.

Lu Cheng'an was unaware of the conversation between Tianhuo Zhenjun and the other person. After leaving Yanzhou, he directly returned to his family with the Five Elements Origin Stones and other materials, and then prepared to hand over all these spiritual materials to Lu Jingkun and the other person for processing.

However, after returning to his family, he was told by Lu Wenxing that Lu Jingkun and Lu Jingkun were not in the family at the moment. The two of them had taken some spirit array masters from the Lu family to the Hong'e Mountains.

The Hong'e Mountains cover an extremely vast area, and the Lu family plans to relocate their mountain gate to the Hong'e Mountains.

Before that, they naturally had to choose a suitable relocation site in the Hong'e Mountains and make many arrangements there.

Lu Jingkun and Lu Chengping, two fourth-tier spirit array masters, have made several trips to the Hong'e Mountains and have already chosen a relocation site.

That place was called the Twin Peaks of Sun and Moon, a natural treasure land that gathers the energy of the sun and the moon, and it was very similar to the two spiritual peaks of the moon and the sun in the Lu family's mountain gate.

Lu Jingkun and Lu Chengping have already set up multiple arrays on the Sun and Moon Peaks. Once the Lu family moves its mountain gate, the Sun and Moon Peaks will merge with the Taiyin and Taiyang Peaks.

Lu Jingkun and Lu Chengping are now leading the Lu family's spirit array masters to the Hong'e Mountains to make some further preparations.

After learning about Lu Jingkun and Lu Cheng'an's situation, Lu Cheng'an returned to his cave to continue his cultivation.

He did not consume the Spirit Essence Fire Banana and Golden Flame Fire Peach, because the power contained in these two spiritual fruits was extremely abundant, and it would take him at least two years to refine their power.

Lu Jingkun and his companion would return to their family's mountain gate from the Hong'e Mountains in at most one month.

Time passed slowly, and a month flew by in the blink of an eye.

As instructed, Lu Jingkun and Lu Chengping resolved the matter of Riyue Peak in the Hong'e Mountains within a month and returned to the Lu family's mountain gate in a timely manner.

Lu Cheng'an had been waiting for Lu Jingkun and his companion to return at the Lu family's mountain gate. Therefore, after returning from the Hong'e Mountains, Lu Jingkun and his companion went directly into Lu Cheng'an's cave.

"These are the Five Elements Origin Stones and other spiritual materials you need. How long will it take you to process them?" Lu Cheng'an asked.

A large portion of these spiritual materials need to be refined into array plates, array flags, array beads, and other magical artifacts and treasures required for setting up spiritual arrays. Given Lu Jingkun and his companion's refining skills, they certainly couldn't refine them themselves, so they needed Lu Cheng'an's help to refine them.

However, the methods for refining array flags and array plates are somewhat different from those for normal magical artifacts and treasures. The spiritual materials used to refine such magical artifacts and treasures need to be processed by a spirit array master first.

Of course, this is only necessary for array flags and array plates of the fourth rank and above.

"Don't worry, Uncle Cheng'an, we won't be delayed for too long!"

Lu Jingkun chuckled softly and said, "It will take Cheng'anbo and me at most two months to process all these spiritual materials!"

Lu Cheng'an nodded slightly: "You all need to hurry up and process these spiritual materials. Afterwards, I will refine these spiritual materials into the array flags and array plates needed for setting up the array."

A moment later, Lu Jingkun and his companion left Lu Cheng'an's place with the spiritual materials.

Two months is not a long time, and Lu Cheng'an still has not consumed the two spiritual fruits, Spirit Marrow Fire Banana and Golden Flame Fire Peach.

Lu Jingkun and Lu Chengping probably sensed Lu Chengan's urgency, so they quickened their pace when processing the spiritual materials.

Lu Jingkun originally said it would take two months to process all the spiritual materials, but they completed the process in less than a month and a half.

Afterwards, Lu Jingkun and Lu Cheng'an immediately handed over the processed spiritual materials to Lu Cheng'an. They hoped that Lu Cheng'an could refine the array plates, array flags and array beads needed for setting up the array as soon as possible, so that they could set up the Earth Origin Spirit Moving Mountain Array as soon as possible.

This formation is of a high grade of mid-fourth rank, and it was created jointly by Lu Jingkun and Lu Chengping.

If they successfully set up this formation, it will not only greatly benefit their formation skills, but also help improve their cultivation levels.

Lu Jingkun has been cultivating at the Nascent Soul stage for nearly a hundred years. His talent for cultivation is exceptional, and he is now only half a step away from breaking through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage.

This was only because he devoted a lot of time and energy to array formations after breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm; otherwise, his cultivation might have already broken through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage.

Lu Chengping's original talent was slightly inferior to Lu Jingkun's, but after his cultivation broke through to the Nascent Soul realm, the Heavenly Evolution Technique he cultivated revealed extraordinary power, which greatly accelerated his cultivation progress.

Although it took him as long as Lu Jingkun to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, his cultivation speed was faster. Both of them had a certain estimate of their own cultivation progress. They believed that shortly after relocating their family's mountain gate to the Sun and Moon Peak of the Hong'e Mountains, they would be able to break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage in a very short time.

The news of Shi Ningyu's travels had already reached the other cultivators of the Lu family. Apart from Lu Wenxing, the old patriarch of the Lu family, other Nascent Soul cultivators of the Lu family, such as Lu Jingkun, also had the idea of ​​going on a travels.

After all, they haven't traveled much in recent years, and the three prefectures of Qing, He, and Tai have never been peaceful.

Now, because of Lu Cheng'an, the Lu family has risen above the Nascent Soul sects in the three states of Qing, He, and Tai. Within these three states, there will certainly be no cultivators who would kill a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Lu family.

Therefore, after the news of Shi Ningyu's travels spread, Lu Jinglin, Lu Jingxiu, and other newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivators of the Lu family all had the idea of ​​traveling.

They haven't been at the Nascent Soul stage for very long, and they've only just begun to cultivate the supernatural abilities contained in their cultivation techniques to a minor level or even just the beginning.

However, thanks to the presence of Lu Cheng'an, a fourth-tier top-grade weapon refiner, they completed the refining of their fourth-tier low-grade natal magic weapon quite early on.

They have successfully refined their natal magic treasures, and relying on the power of these treasures, their strength among early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators is still considerable.

Therefore, after informing Lu Cheng'an, Lu Wenxing allowed Lu Jinglin and the others to go on their travels.

This also allows the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators in the family to travel freely and broaden their horizons.

Lu Cheng'an didn't pay much attention to these matters. After receiving the spiritual materials that Lu Jingkun and the other person had finished processing, he returned to his cave to begin refining the array flags and array plates needed for setting up the array.

Prior to this, Lu Cheng'an had already studied the methods of refining array flags and array plates. With his current refining skills, it would be a very simple matter for him to refine these fourth-tier mid-grade array plates and array flags.

However, the Earth Origin Spirit-Nourishing Mountain-Moving Array is an extremely complex array, requiring a relatively large number of array flags and array plates.

Lu Cheng'an only crafted mid-to-low-grade fourth-order array flags and array plates; the array flags and array plates below the fourth order were handed over to Lu Jingchen, Lu Jingyuan, and others for crafting.

Both Lu Jingchen and Lu Jingyuan have broken through to the Golden Core Perfection realm. They are quite talented in cultivation and weapon crafting. If they can obtain spiritual objects that help them condense their Nascent Souls, they still have a good chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.

After spending a year and a half refining the fourth-grade mid-to-low-grade array flags and array plates needed to set up the Earth Origin Spirit Moving Mountain Array, Lu Cheng'an immediately handed them over to Lu Jingkun and Lu Chengping.

He then announced his seclusion and began using the two spiritual fruits, Spirit Marrow Fire Banana and Golden Flame Fire Peach, to improve his cultivation.

Although all the array plates and flags needed to construct the Earth Origin Spirit Moving Mountain Array have been crafted, setting up this grand array is still no easy task.

Lu Jingkun and his companion still need to make many arrangements. It will take them at least four or five years to relocate the Lu family's mountain gate to the Sun and Moon Peak in the Hong'e Mountains.

In the past four or five years, Lu Cheng'an had already refined the power of the two spiritual fruits, Spirit Marrow Fire Banana and Golden Flame Fire Peach.

…………

After entering Yuanzhou as a rogue Nascent Soul cultivator, Shi Ningyu quickly received an invitation from the Qinghe Sect, a Nascent Soul sect in Yuanzhou.

The Qinghe Sect is even stronger than the Tianhuo Sect. Currently, the sect has as many as 25 Nascent Soul cultivators, including 7 Nascent Soul Perfection cultivators.

Another Nascent Soul sect in Yuanzhou is the Tianze Sect, which is also stronger than the Tianhuo Sect.

The Tianze Sect currently has 27 Nascent Soul cultivators, but only 6 of them are at the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, which is one less than the Qinghe Sect.

The reason why the powerful Qinghe Sect invited Shi Ningyu was not only because Shi Ningyu demonstrated her late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, but also because the demonic beasts in the Boundless Black River had recently rioted.

Yuanzhou and Lianzhou are connected, and the vast area to the north of these two prefectures is the boundless Heihe River.

The boundless black river is filled with abundant spiritual energy, but it is not the territory of human cultivators; it has always been occupied by demonic beasts.

The monsters in the boundless Black River are far more powerful than those in the Hong'e Mountains, with more than a handful of them being at the fourth-order perfect realm.

These powerful fourth-order perfect realm demonic beasts frequently launch beast tides to attack cultivators in Lianzhou and Yuanzhou.

Especially in the last hundred years, the concentration of spiritual energy in the boundless Black River has increased, giving birth to a greater number of demonic beasts.

As a result, the beast tides launched by fourth-tier demonic beasts in the boundless black river became more and more frequent.

Fortunately, the cultivation sects in Lianzhou and Yuanzhou were relatively powerful. If the cultivation forces in Qing, He, and Taizhou had faced an invasion of this magnitude, they would probably have been wiped out by the monsters long ago.

Even the formidable Lianzhou and Yuanzhou found themselves struggling after such a long period of frequent battles with the monsters of the boundless Black River.

Shi Ningyu displayed the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul stage, a level of cultivation that is rare even in Lianzhou and Yuanzhou.

Therefore, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Qinghe Sect took the initiative to extend an invitation after witnessing the strength displayed by Shi Ningyu.

Before revealing her true strength, Shi Ningyu had already investigated the situation in Lianzhou and Yuanzhou, and the invitation from Qinghe Sect was within her expectations.

Or perhaps she revealed her true strength to attract the attention of the Qinghe Sect.

Therefore, when the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Qinghe Sect invited Shi Ningyu to join them in resisting the attack of the demonic beasts in the boundless Black River, Shi Ningyu readily agreed.

Afterwards, Shi Ningyu left Yuanzhou with the Nascent Soul cultivators of Qinghe Sect and entered the border area between Lianzhou and the Boundless Black River.

That place was the battlefield between the boundless black river monsters and human cultivators. Countless human cultivators and monsters had shed their blood here, and the soil on the riverbanks had turned blood red from the blood.

Therefore, this place was named Bloodland, but cultivators from Yuanzhou and Lianzhou often refer to it as the Bloodland Battlefield.

The Lotus Flower Sect, the Qinghe Sect, and the Tianze Sect joined forces to build a giant city 500 miles away from the Blood Land Battlefield, which was named Blood Land City.

Blood City exists to defend against the attacks of the monstrous beasts in the boundless Black River! (End of Chapter)
