Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog

In the days that followed, Lu Nanxi found herself becoming increasingly dependent on the "Curse Fire Double Wheel Ascension Technique".

This cultivation technique is so perfectly suited to her bloodline.

Each time she activated it, it purified her Heavenly Blazing Fire True Blood by one point, and her cultivation level increased several times faster than simply cultivating the "Heavenly Blazing Fire True Explanation".

As she deepened her cultivation of the technique, the bloodline resonance between her and Wu Tian grew stronger and stronger.

Sometimes she would just sit in her room handling business, with Wu Tian lying at her feet. Even without any physical contact, the true blood in her body would spontaneously become active, subtly resonating with Wu Tian's bloodline.

Sometimes when she was cultivating late at night, Wu Tian would be beside her, breathing in and out fire elemental energy. She could clearly feel that her efficiency in absorbing fire elemental energy had increased by at least 50%.

What made it even more embarrassing for her was that, as the resonance deepened, she began to have some strange dreams.

In her dream, she was no longer in human form, but transformed into a burning flame.

The flames drifted in the void, searching for another flame that could merge with her.

When she finds a red hound engulfed in flames, she will rush towards it with unparalleled ferocity, merging with it and burning even more intensely and purely...

Every time Lu Nanxi woke up from such a dream, she would find herself covered in sweat, her cheeks burning, her internal blood unusually active, and she would feel an indescribable emptiness.

She knew it was a primal, blood-related desire.

"We can't go on like this..."

Looking at her flushed face and lustful eyes in the mirror, Lu Nanxi felt a wave of panic.

Wu Tian lay in the corner of the room, seemingly asleep, but in reality, he was constantly watching Lu Nanxi's condition.

He could sense that desire was gradually growing within the woman.

This is a normal effect of the "Double Wheel of Cursed Fire Ascension Technique"; bloodline resonance will trigger the body's instinctive desires.

The more Lu Nanxi resisted, the stronger that desire became.

All Wu Tian needed to do was wait patiently for the moment she completely let down her guard.

She realized that her attitude towards Wu Tian was undergoing a dangerous change.

Before, I just treated him as a pet that I casually kept, but now I find myself paying attention to his every move, my heart races when he gets close, and I feel lost when he leaves...

"This must be the effect of the cultivation technique!"

Lu Nanxi forced herself to calm down and began to consciously reduce her contact with Wu Tian, ​​and tried to avoid him as much as possible when cultivating.

But she soon discovered that without Wu Tian by her side, her cultivation speed would drop significantly, and the operation of the "Curse Fire Double Wheel Ascension Technique" would also become much more sluggish.

Moreover, that deep-seated emptiness in her blood would grow stronger over time, even affecting her mind and making it difficult for her to concentrate on her work during the day.

"how so……"

Lu Nanxi struggled.

Just as she was struggling with this internal conflict, news arrived from the mountain city that Lu Jiuchuan would arrive at Flaming Mountain in three days.

……

Under a sky ablaze with crimson clouds, three crimson flying boats swooped down like burning dragons and hovered above the Flaming Mountain City.

The fiery emblem branded on the hull shimmered in the sunlight, a symbol passed down through the Lu family for millennia.

When the airship's cabin door opened, twelve Xuanjia cultivators stepped out first.

These cultivators were tall and straight, their armor covered with intricate runes, and a faint aura of malevolence emanated from them as they walked.

After landing, they quickly lined up in two rows, their movements perfectly synchronized, clearly indicating that they were well-trained battle formation cultivators.

Each of them exuded an aura as solid as iron, all of them being cultivators at the Refinement Realm. The three leaders, in particular, had already reached the peak of the Refinement Realm, just one step away from condensing their magical power.

Then, the person in question appeared.

As Lu Jiuchuan slowly stepped out of the main ship, everyone in the mountain city square was drawn to his presence.

He wore a brocade red robe, embroidered with a pattern of twelve pillars supporting the blue sky in gold thread, which shone brightly under the glow of the red sunset.

Wearing a crown, with three crimson gems shimmering with golden light, hanging down like a necklace, he appeared even more heroic.

Lu Jiuchuan's face could be described as handsome, with a high nose bridge and thin, pale lips, but his slightly upturned eyes carried the arrogance and scrutiny unique to scions of noble families.

What is most striking about him are his eyes, with dark red flame marks deep in his pupils, and it seems as if magma flows in his eyes as they open and close.

This is a sign that the "True Explanation of the Blazing Fire of the Capital" has reached the ninth peak, the bloodline is highly awakened, and the ancestral blood is about to be condensed.

Lu Jiuchuan stood on the gangway of the flying boat, his gaze slowly sweeping over the crowd in the square, finally settling on Lu Nanxi, who was standing at the very front.

Wu Tian leaned against the windowsill of Lu Nanxi's room, gazing at the scene in the square. His eyesight was excellent, and he could clearly see Lu Jiuchuan's appearance and expression.

This is a typical eldest son of a noble family: arrogant, conceited, and disdainful of everyone.

Wu Tian could sense that Lu Jiuchuan's true blood of the Heavenly Blazing Fire was purer than Lu Nanxi's, and his cultivation level was indeed higher.

However, apart from Lu Nanxi, none of the other Lu family cultivators, regardless of gender, gave him that kind of intense blood rush that made him want to cultivate together.

"finally come……"

Lu Jiuchuan's arrival will put enormous pressure on Lu Nanxi, which is exactly what Wu Tian wants.

Today, Lu Nanxi was dressed in the everyday clothes of the direct descendants of the Lu family: a moon-white long dress embroidered with gold flame patterns, with a light red gauze shawl over it, and her long hair was simply tied up with a red jade hairpin.

She stood tall and her face was calm, but her slightly pursed lips and her right hand, hanging by her side and quietly clenched into a fist, betrayed her inner turmoil.

Wu Tian's gaze fell on Lu Nanxi.

This moon-white long dress perfectly accentuated her cool and elegant temperament, while the light red tulle shawl added a touch of softness to her look.

The long dress was perfectly tailored, showcasing her stunning figure. Her high breasts filled out the dress with a beautiful curve, her slender waist was incredibly thin, and her rounded hips were faintly visible beneath the hem.

Her face remained calm, but Wu Tian could sense the tension and unease within her.

This is normal. Lu Jiuchuan's arrival means that all her efforts during this period may have been in vain.

"Second sister, it's been a long time."

Lu Jiuchuan stepped down the gangway, his voice gentle yet carrying a hint of condescending intimacy.

He walked up to Lu Nanxi, reached out as if to pat her shoulder, the movement natural and casual, as if it were just a normal greeting between siblings.

But Lu Nanxi subtly took a half step back and bowed slightly: "Brother, you've come from afar, you must be tired."

The hand that was hanging in mid-air paused for a moment. A hint of displeasure flashed in Lu Jiuchuan's eyes, but he quickly withdrew his hand with a smile: "Working for the family, what's the hardship?"

He turned to face the cultivators bowing in the square, and his voice suddenly rose: "Everyone, by order of the Ancestor, from this day forward, all affairs of Flame Mountain will be taken over by me, Lu Jiuchuan."

"With my second sister Lu Nanxi assisting me, I hope everyone will work together to help the Lu family expand its territory here!"

After he finished speaking, the square fell silent.

Many cultivators subconsciously looked at Lu Nanxi, the second young lady of the Lu family who had led them in building cities and formations in the desolate mountains, fighting against demons, and engaging in open and covert struggles with outside cultivators for the past three months.

Her eyes were slightly lowered, her long eyelashes casting a faint shadow on her cheeks. Her face was expressionless, but the hem of her moon-white dress trembled almost imperceptibly.

"What?" Lu Jiuchuan's voice turned cold. "Do any of you have any objections?" "We dare not!" The two guards standing behind Lu Nanxi, Lu Qingshuang and Lu Hongshang, actually bowed first in response.

To some extent, both of these individuals were pawns and eyes for the Lu family to control and monitor their direct descendants.

Lu Qingshuang looked to be only in her early thirties with delicate features. She wore a light blue outfit and stood tall and straight like a pine tree.

Lu Hongshang was a bit older, a voluptuous and beautiful woman, wearing a fiery red dress, with a hint of shrewishness in her eyes.

They were all guards trained by the Lu family. They barely broke through to the Refining Law Realm by burning their lifespan and potential. Their path to immortality was over, and their only mission was to protect the direct bloodline.

The two men bowed their heads and spoke respectfully.

Logically speaking, they were both Lu Nanxi's guards. Before their mistress could even speak, the two of them actually bowed down, which was blatant betrayal.

Lu Nanxi suppressed the gloom in her eyes and smiled slightly: "Brother is joking. Since it is the family's order, we naturally have no objection."

"I will obey the young master's command!"

The monks in the square responded in unison, their voices echoing through the valley.

Lu Jiuchuan nodded expressionlessly, then looked at Lu Nanxi: "Second sister, take me to see the defenses of the mountain city, as well as the mining operations and the operation of the magic array. I also need to understand those."

He paused, a glint of light flashing in his eyes: "By the way, I heard you discovered an ancient, exotic demon? Tell me more about it."

"……Yes."

Lu Nanxi took a deep breath, turned around and led the way.

She walked steadily, her back straight, her moon-white dress shimmering faintly in the crimson glow of the sunset, like a white lotus growing in flames.

But only she knew that at this moment, the heart in her chest was sinking little by little, sinking into a cold abyss.

Wu Tian watched this scene from afar at the window of the Jade Pavilion, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.

As expected, the eldest son of the Lu family came with ill intentions. As soon as he arrived in Lu Family Mountain City, he couldn't wait to take over the power, which was a huge blow to Lu Nanxi.

But for Wu Tian, ​​it was an excellent opportunity.

Lu Nanxi is now isolated and helpless. The only thing she can rely on is the increase in strength brought about by the "Curse Fire Double Wheel Ascension Technique".

To quickly improve one's strength, one must engage in deeper bloodline resonance and dual cultivation with him.

Wu Tian could already foresee that it wouldn't be long before Lu Nanxi would completely give out.

……

As Wu Tian had predicted, the changes in Lujia Mountain City in the following period of time were indeed as Wu Tian had expected.

The process of Lu Jiuchuan, the eldest son of the Lu family, taking over the mountain city was breathtakingly fast.

Upon his arrival, he summoned all the cultivators above the rank of manager in the mountain city and inquired about their responsibilities, accounts, and personnel arrangements one by one.

Lu Nanxi sat beside him, watching her former subordinates who had once treated her with utmost respect now trembling and speaking sagely before Lu Jiuchuan. A surge of indescribable anger and chill rose in her heart.

The following day, the twelve red-armored cultivators brought by Lu Jiuchuan were assigned to various key positions, including mine supervision, magic array maintenance, warehouse management, and patrol dispatch...

On the third day, Lu Jiuchuan issued a series of new regulations under the pretext of "rectifying the atmosphere in the mountain city".

One of the regulations stipulated that all resource allocation, task assignment, and access permits must be approved by his confidant, the Xuanjia Commander named Lu Chongshan, who was at the peak of the Refinement Realm.

Lu Chongshan is only responsible to Lu Jiuchuan.

This means that Lu Nanxi's actual control over the mountain city has been completely stripped away.

Several days later, in the evening, Lu Nanxi received three of her trusted confidants in her study.

These three mine managers, whom she had personally promoted, were all reliable and knowledgeable cultivators from the side branches of the Flaming Mountain ley lines.

Wu Tian was lying down next to Lu Nanxi's chair.

Today, the woman wore a dark blue long dress. The dress had a simple cut, but it accentuated her voluptuous figure, making her even more alluring. Her high breasts rose and fell under the tight-fitting dress, and a silver belt cinched her slender waist. Her rounded hips outlined a perfect curve under the hem of the dress.

She didn't dare to hug Wu Tian easily during this time, for fear of embarrassing herself, but she couldn't bear to let him leave her side, so she always let him follow her.

"Didn't I tell you not to move around easily during this period, and not to come looking for me unless there are special circumstances?"

"Why did you suddenly come over at this time?"

Upon hearing this, the three cultivators standing opposite her all wore bitter expressions.

The leader sighed and took out a transfer order. "Second Miss, you'll understand once you see this transfer order."

The other two also took out the transfer orders they had prepared beforehand and presented them to the higher-ups.

Lu Nanxi glanced at it, her eyes flashing with anger, her face instantly turning frosty. "You may all leave now. I will take care of this matter for you. Wait for my news."

The three exchanged a glance, as if they wanted to say something, but in the end they could only sigh and turn away.

Before leaving, the leader turned back and advised, "Second Miss, you can't fight city hall. If it really doesn't work out, just let it go!"

"It's nothing for us to suffer for a while."

“It would probably not be a good thing to go head-to-head with the eldest son at this time.”

After saying this, he bowed again before turning and leaving.

After the three left, Lu Nanxi could no longer contain her anger. She smashed the table to pieces with one blow, causing the teapot on the table to shatter and scatter ceramic shards and tea all over the floor.

With a single transfer order, Lu Jiuchuan reassigned all three of her trusted confidants to patrol posts on the outermost outskirts of the mountain city, where the vital energy was at its lowest.

It was a tough job, requiring daily patrols on the edge of the mountain city, dealing with demons and visiting cultivators, and there was almost no profit to be made.

Not content with seizing power in the mountain city in just a few days, Lu Jiuchuan is now going to take action against her confidants.

In fact, this is not the first time. Many cultivators that Lu Nanxi promoted have either been transferred to unimportant sinecure positions or have been marginalized.

She had repeatedly yielded, unwilling to confront Lu Jiuchuan directly, but he was relentlessly aggressive, determined to wipe out all her people in one fell swoop.

"We can no longer sit idly by and wait to die!"

"You little troublemaker, come with me!"

She stood up, gave an order, and strode towards the door.

"Little troublemaker" is what she calls Wu Tian, ​​partly because of their bloodline, and partly because she both loves and hates this little guy.

Wu Tian could sense Lu Nanxi's anger.

Her usually cold and aloof face was now slightly flushed with anger, adding to her beauty.

Wu Tian's blood was surging. He could smell the faint fragrance emanating from Lu Nanxi, which, mixed with his anger, made him feel incredibly tempted.

"Wang Wang~"

After the dog barked once, he quickly followed.

"Lu Jiuchuan, don't let me down..." (End of Chapter)
