Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

The Lu family, from which Lu Cheng'an came, was a cultivation force within the territory of the Ancient Desolate Sect. Before Lu Cheng'an broke through to the Nascent Soul realm and killed the Heavenly Locust True Monarch, the Lu family was a very ordinary cultivation force.

It was only when Lu Cheng'an's cultivation broke through to the Golden Core realm that he attracted the attention of the Ancient Desolate Sect because he had killed three-tiered demonic beasts in succession, and the Ancient Desolate Sect was somewhat wary of him.

However, the Ancient Desolate Sect's fear of Lu Cheng'an gradually lessened, and because of the Sacred Heart Sect and the demonic beasts of the Hong'e Mountains, the Ancient Desolate Sect did nothing more to Lu Cheng'an.

Previously, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Desolate Ancient Sect held sermons with the aim of rapidly improving the strength of cultivators within their territory, and ideally, producing some Nascent Soul cultivators.

However, the Ancient Desolate Sect also knew that this was just their wishful thinking. It was an extremely difficult thing for a Golden Core cultivator to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Moreover, Lu Cheng'an's cultivation had only recently broken through to the Golden Core realm, and they never imagined that he could break through to the Nascent Soul realm at this time.

Because of Master Kushui, the Sacred Heart Sect only knew of Lu Cheng'an's existence and had some impression of him.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of the Sacred Heart Sect also sent a message to True Lord Tianhuang, urging him to keep a close eye on Lu Cheng'an and, ideally, bring him back to the Sacred Heart Sect alive.

However, not only did True Monarch Tianhuang fail to bring Lu Cheng'an back to the Sacred Heart Sect alive, but True Monarch Tianhuang was also killed by Lu Cheng'an, who had broken through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Upon receiving this news, the Sacred Heart Sect developed an overwhelming desire to kill Lu Cheng'an.

Such a powerful young Nascent Soul cultivator has a very high probability of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Perfection realm in the future. If he is not killed now, he will definitely become a major threat to the Sacred Heart Sect in the future.

However, the attitudes of the cultivators of the Sacred Heart Sect towards Lu Cheng'an were not unified. Only a small number of cultivators in the Sacred Heart Sect regarded Lu Cheng'an as a threat, while most Nascent Soul cultivators did not take Lu Cheng'an seriously.

This is mainly related to what the Sacred Heart Sect is doing now.

The Sacred Heart Sect is now launching attacks on Nascent Soul sects such as the Ancient Desolate Sect, mainly to plunder the cultivation resources of Qingzhou and Hezhou. The Sacred Heart Ancestor wants to gather the resources of the three states and break through to the Divine Transformation Realm in one fell swoop.

If they fail, it will be irrelevant whether Lu Cheng'an will pose a threat to the Sacred Heart Sect.

If the Holy Heart Ancestor successfully breaks through to the Nascent Soul realm, then Lu Cheng'an will become even less of a threat.

Even if Lu Cheng'an breaks through to the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm in the future, he will definitely not be a match for a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Another very important reason is that the Sacred Heart Sect is also under great pressure.

Although the Sacred Heart Sect is extremely powerful, it is currently waging war against all the cultivation sects in Qingzhou and Hezhou, and cannot mobilize too many forces to kill Lu Cheng'an.

After some debate, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Sacred Heart Sect finally decided to leave Lu Cheng'an alone and wait until the battles between them and the cultivation sects of Qingzhou and Hezhou were over before making any further decisions.

The Ancient Desolate Sect was the first to receive news that Lu Cheng'an's cultivation had broken through to the Nascent Soul realm; this news was essentially told to the Ancient Desolate Sect by the Lu family themselves.

After killing the Heavenly Locust True Monarch, Lu Cheng'an had Lu Wenxing send a message to Lu Chengyue informing him that his cultivation had broken through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Lu Chengyue then relayed this news to the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

Lu Cheng'an believed that the Ancient Desolate Sect must have been paying close attention to the situation of the Heavenly Locust True Monarch in the Yunling Mountains.

The Heavenly Locust True Monarch died at his hands. Even if he didn't actively tell the Desolate Ancient Sect about this, it wouldn't be long before the Desolate Ancient Sect was able to find out.

Rather than waiting for the Ancient Desolate Sect to find out, it would be better for him to take the initiative to tell the Ancient Desolate Sect the news.

Lu Chengyue was extremely shocked after receiving Lu Wenxing's message, and she even suspected that there was a mistake in the message conveyed by her family.

However, she quickly calmed down and realized that the news couldn't be false; their Lu family's Supreme Elder had indeed broken through to the Nascent Soul realm.

The news exploded in her mind, leaving her unable to calm down for a long time.

Once she calmed down, she immediately told her master, Kushi Zhenjun, the news.

Ku Shi Zhenjun was also extremely shocked, but he quickly calmed down and asked Lu Chengyue to contact the family and tell them that he would personally visit the Lu family next.

Afterwards, True Monarch Kushi immediately went to find the other three Nascent Soul cultivators of the Desolate Ancient Sect to discuss with them the matter of Lu Cheng'an's cultivation breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Lu Cheng'an's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm has had a significant impact on the Ancient Desolate Sect. Now, the Ancient Desolate Sect harbors no hostility towards Lu Cheng'an and wants to cooperate with him.

This is because the Ancient Desolate Sect is the weakest among the Nascent Soul sects in Qingzhou and Hezhou. If they cooperate with Lu Cheng'an, it will undoubtedly strengthen the Ancient Desolate Sect.

After discussing with the other Nascent Soul cultivators of the Desolate Ancient Sect, True Monarch Kushi agreed with True Monarch Kushi's proposal to win over Lu Cheng'an and cooperate with the Lu family.

When Lu Chengyue relayed this news to Lu Wenxing, Lu Chengan had already gone into seclusion with Shi Ningyu for dual cultivation, cutting off all contact with the outside world.

Lu Wenxing naturally couldn't make the decision himself, so he could only truthfully tell Lu Chengyue that Lu Cheng'an was currently in seclusion and cultivating, and ask Lu Chengyue to tell the news to True Lord Kushi.

When Ku Shi Zhenjun learned of this news, he was not angry. He simply told Lu Chengyue to tell Lu Chengan the news as soon as he came out of seclusion.

Ku Shi Zhenjun knew that the battle between Lu Cheng'an and Tianhuang Zhenjun had just ended.

He had fought with Ku Shi Zhenjun before and knew how strong Ku Shi Zhenjun was.

Lu Cheng'an's cultivation has just broken through to the Nascent Soul realm. Even though he is powerful, he will definitely have to pay a considerable price to kill Ku Shi Zhenjun, who is also at the Nascent Soul realm.

Therefore, when Ku Shi Zhenjun learned that Lu Cheng'an was currently in seclusion, he naturally assumed that Lu Cheng'an was in seclusion to heal his injuries.

Soon after, Haoyang Sect and Xuanjing Sect also began to inquire about Lu Cheng'an and the Lu family.

They wanted to know just how powerful this cultivator, who had just broken through to the Nascent Soul realm and was able to kill the Heavenly Locust True Monarch of the same realm, truly was.

Fortunately, they didn't know that Lu Cheng'an had also killed a fourth-tier early-stage Black-Striped Sky Locust that had recovered. Otherwise, if they had known this, they would have been even more surprised.

The Ancient Desolate Sect also inquired about the situation of Lu Cheng'an, a cultivator from the Golden Origin Sect, and the Lu family. Geng Qiuhuai and other Golden Origin Sect cultivators were grateful to the Lu family. They did not reveal much information about the Lu family, only mentioning the information that the Lu family had released voluntarily.

The Ancient Desolate Sect did not press them for details, nor did they believe that the cultivators of the Golden Origin Sect knew the Lu family's secrets.

The cultivators from the Jinyuan Sect and Danding Sect have now moved away from the Lu family.

The situation at Dan Ding Sect was still good. After Shi Mingxin and other cultivators from Dan Ding Sect left the Lu family, Lu Jingkun, following Lu Cheng'an's instructions, moved all the spiritual peaks of Dan Ding Sect back to Dan Ding Sect intact.

However, the situation of the Golden Origin Sect is much worse. The sect's mountain gate and spiritual land have been completely destroyed. Moreover, in recent years, the cultivators of the Golden Origin Sect have been depleting the sect's resources in the Lu family, with no income whatsoever. It is unknown how long it will take for them to restore the Golden Origin Sect to its former glory.

Besides the loss of the sacred mountain gate, the vast number of ordinary people trained by the Jinyuan Sect also died out.

Ordinary people are the foundation of a cultivation force. Without a large number of ordinary people as support, even the most powerful cultivation force will not last long.

Therefore, in addition to restoring the sacred mountain gate, the Jin Yuan Sect also needs to cultivate mortals again, which is not an easy task.

The low-level cultivators and mortals near the Lu family and Dan Ding Sect were also affected to some extent, but their losses were not significant.

Before the attack by evil cultivators such as Tianhuang Zhenjun, Lu Cheng'an ordered all mortals and low-level cultivators in the territory to be gathered near the Lu family's mountain gate.

The Nine Luminaries Star Thunder Refining God Array covers a very wide area, and those mortals and low-level cultivators are protected by the power of the Nine Luminaries Star Thunder Refining God Array and have not suffered much damage.

As the cultivators from the Jin Yuan Sect and Dan Ding Sect moved out of the Lu family's mountain gate, these low-level cultivators and mortals also left the Lu family one by one.

The Lu family cultivators also sent some of the mortals living in the mountain gate out to live in the Lu family's territory.

The Lu family's current mountain gate is extremely large, indeed enough to accommodate a large number of ordinary people.

However, the Lu Family Mountain Gate is, after all, the place where Lu Family cultivators live. A small number of mortals living in the Lu Family Mountain Gate will not affect the cultivators, but if a large number of mortals live in the mountain gate, it will definitely affect the cultivators in the mountain gate.

After these mortals left the Lu family's mountain gate, Lu Wenxing began to organize the Lu family's cultivators to build a celestial city a hundred miles away from the Lu family's mountain gate.

In fact, after Lu Cheng'an's cultivation advanced to the Golden Core realm, the Lu family had the idea of ​​building an immortal city.

However, ever since Lu Cheng'an broke through to the Golden Core realm, the Lu family and the Desolate Ancient Sect have been plagued by all sorts of troubles.

Even though the Lu family's strength increased greatly because Lu Cheng'an's cultivation broke through to the Golden Core realm, they still had to shrink their power, so the idea of ​​building the Immortal City was temporarily shelved.

Although the cultivation world, including Qingzhou, is still rife with conflict, with Lu Cheng'an's cultivation breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, the Lu family still possesses the power to protect itself even amidst such strife. Thus, Lu Wenxing once again brought up the plan to build an immortal city.

The area where the Lu family built the Immortal City was a hundred miles away from the Lu family's mountain gate, which is not considered far.

Next, the power of the Lu family's protective mountain array, the Nine Luminaries Star Thunder Refining God Array, will continue to expand until it covers the newly built immortal city.

Lu Chengping's cultivation has now broken through to the late Golden Core stage. He and Lu Jingkun can work together to set up the Nine Luminaries Star Thunder Refining God Array, which can further enhance the power of the array.

If either of the two were to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, the Nine Luminaries Star Thunder Refining God Array would be upgraded to the fourth rank.

At that time, the safety of the Lu family will truly be guaranteed.

After Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu finished their dual cultivation, Lu Cheng'an left the cave, while Shi Ningyu continued her seclusion to digest the insights gained from this dual cultivation.

After Lu Cheng'an came out of his cave, he went directly to Lu Wenxing's cave to ask him what happened after he killed the Heavenly Locust True Monarch.

Lu Wenxing recounted in great detail what had happened after Lu Chengan went into seclusion, emphasizing the fact that True Lord Kushi was coming to visit.

“I understand about this matter. I will personally go to the Desolate Ancient Sect next.” Lu Cheng’an nodded slightly and said in a deep voice.

Although his cultivation had broken through to the Nascent Soul realm, compared to the ancient and long-established Desolate Ancient Sect, his strength was nothing.

He naturally couldn't let True Monarch Kushi come to the Lu family to find him; instead, he had to take the initiative to visit the Ancient Desolate Sect.

He doesn't yet know the situation of Nascent Soul cultivators in Qingzhou, Hezhou, and Taizhou. He'll definitely find out the answer when he goes to the Desolate Ancient Sect.

After learning about the recent situation from Lu Wenxing, Lu Cheng'an personally delivered a message to Lu Chengyue, and then set off from the Lu family, speeding towards the Desolate Ancient Sect.

During his journey to the Yunling Mountains, he made a point of observing the situation in the area north of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

Although he had killed the evil cultivators, including the Heavenly Locust True Monarch, the damage they caused had not yet been repaired, and the area remained extremely desolate.

Lu Cheng'an also made a special trip to the site of the Jin Yuan Sect's mountain gate, where Geng Qiuhuai and other Jin Yuan Sect cultivators were working hard to restore it to its original state.

However, the Jin Yuan Sect's mountain gate was damaged too severely, and it is unknown how long it will take to restore it to its former glory.

Lu Cheng'an did not stop and sped along, soon arriving at the Desolate Ancient Immortal City.

The Ancient City is not far from the Ancient Sect's mountain gate; the two places are less than 500 miles apart.

This distance is something a Nascent Soul cultivator can reach in an instant.

After entering the Desolate Ancient Immortal City, Lu Cheng'an sent a message to Lu Chengyue, telling her that he had entered the Desolate Ancient Immortal City and that he would visit the Desolate Ancient Sect True Monarch Kushi the next day.

After receiving Lu Cheng'an's message, Lu Chengyue immediately told her master, Kushi Zhenjun, the news.

Afterwards, True Monarch Kushi informed the other three Nascent Soul cultivators of the Ancient Desolate Immortal City of Lu Cheng'an's arrival, and then waited for Lu Cheng'an's arrival at the mountain gate.

A day passed in the blink of an eye, and at the stroke of midnight on the second day, Lu Cheng'an appeared outside the gate of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

At this moment, Lu Chengyue was waiting for Lu Chengan to arrive outside the gate of the Desolate Ancient Sect, while True Lord Kushi was waiting at the Guest-Welcoming Peak of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

"Congratulations to the Supreme Elder on breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm! May your future path be smooth and your longevity be within reach!"

Upon seeing Lu Cheng'an, Lu Chengyue immediately bowed respectfully and then offered his congratulations.

Although she has now joined the Ancient Desolate Sect, she is still from the Lu family.

The fact that the Lu family produced a Nascent Soul cultivator greatly enhanced her status within the Ancient Desolate Sect.

"My master is currently at Welcoming Guest Peak. I will take you to find my master now!"

Lu Cheng'an nodded slightly, and under Lu Chengyue's guidance, they soon entered the Welcoming Peak of the Ancient Desolate Sect.

On the Guest-Welcoming Peak of the Ancient Desolate Sect, there is also a fourth-order spiritual vein, with extremely rich spiritual energy and a large number of rare and exotic herbs planted there. Furthermore, a jade-like waterfall cascades down from the peak, creating a scene resembling a fairyland. (End of Chapter)
