Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

After Geng Muhua left, Hongying Yuanjun did not linger at Jinding Mountain.

After sending a message to Master Tianyun, she rushed back to the Yuling Sect from Jinding Mountain.

"The purification magic array at Jinding Mountain has been completed. This is the method to activate the purification magic array. If you have any questions, you can send me a message."

After returning to the Desire Spirit Sect, Hongying Yuanjun handed over the manual on controlling the purification magic array left by Geng Muhua to Lu Cheng'an.

"After completing the purification magic array, Geng Muhua left Mengyuan Prefecture directly. He left his communication method. If you want to build a fifth-order spirit array, you can add his communication method, but the price will definitely not be cheap."

This was what Geng Muhua told Hongying Yuanjun in a joking tone when he left.

The Desire Spirit Sect already has a fifth-tier low-grade spirit array master, so they certainly wouldn't ask Geng Muhua to build a fifth-tier spirit array.

She believed that Lu Cheng'an and the cultivators of Yin Hua Sect would not seek Geng Muhua to build a fifth-order spirit array, since the price he set was too high, even their Yu Ling Sect could not afford it.

"Our Yin Hua Sect does not currently need to build a fifth-order spirit array, nor can we afford such a high construction cost!"

Master Tianyun chuckled softly and said, "Now that the teleportation array for Jinding Mountain has been completed, I will take Fellow Daoist Lu and his wife to Jinding Mountain. If there are any deficiencies at Jinding Mountain, we may need to ask Sect Master Yun for help!"

Not long after, Master Tianyun led Lu Cheng'an and his wife away from the Yuling Sect and sped off towards Jinding Mountain.

"Golden Cauldron Mountain currently only has a mid-grade fifth-order purification magic array, without any protective facilities."

“Zhao Yunqiu of the Desire Spirit Sect is a fifth-order low-grade spirit array master, skilled in building defensive spirit arrays. If you need one, I can help you find Zhao Yunqiu to build a fifth-order low-grade defensive spirit array at Golden Cauldron Mountain. Her construction fee will definitely not be as high as Geng Muhua’s!” Master Tianyun said with a smile.

Jinding Mountain covers a large area and is not just a single peak, but a continuous mountain range.

This place used to be the territory of the Wang family, a powerful clan that had transformed into a demonic god.

Since Lu Cheng'an and his wife were originally independent cultivators, they had already spent a great deal of money to build a mid-grade fifth-order purification magic array on Jin Ding Mountain, so it would be acceptable for them to spend some more money to build a defensive spirit array.

"Thank you for considering our needs, Sect Master. However, I feel that building a defensive spirit array is not urgent. Let's wait until the demonic energy of Golden Cauldron Mountain is completely purified before making a decision!" Lu Cheng'an replied.

“What you said makes sense. If we build a defensive spirit array now, we would need to invest spirit pearls to maintain the array’s operation, which is indeed not worthwhile.”

Master Tianyun nodded slightly and said, "Just remember this. If you need anything, just let me know."

Master Tianyun is now being quite polite to Lu Cheng'an; he doesn't want to see anything happen to Lu Cheng'an.

After all, Lu Cheng'an is now capable of helping their Yin Hua Sect refine the fifth-grade low-level magic treasure, the Gathering Yin Pool, and the Seven Elements Nourishing Spirit Flag. If something were to happen to Lu Cheng'an at this time, it would definitely not be a good thing for their Yin Hua Sect.

Lu Cheng'an and Master Tianyun talked all the way, discussing many things.

Lu Cheng'an also took the opportunity to inquire about some matters concerning the Burial Ground for Immortals.

Lu Cheng'an claimed that he was from Yunzhou, which was very close to the Burial Ground of Immortals. His inquiry to Master Tianyun about the Burial Ground of Immortals did not arouse Master Tianyun's suspicion.

However, Mengyuan Prefecture and the Burial Immortal Land are too far apart, and the Yin Hua Sect is not considered particularly powerful in the Xuan Chen Realm, so he doesn't know much about the Burial Immortal Land.

However, Master Tianyun knew much more than Lu Cheng'an.

The Burial Ground of Immortals did indeed bury many cultivators whose lifespans were about to end; these cultivators were at least at the Nascent Soul stage.

Deep within the Burial Grounds of Immortals, it is said that old monsters at the Tribulation Transcending Realm still exist.

They seemed to be waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to revitalize their lives.

This opportunity led to a great loss in the Xuan Chen Realm. As a result, the cultivators outside the Burial Ground sealed off the entire Burial Ground to prevent the cultivators buried inside from reviving.

Lu Cheng'an also mentioned the destruction of the Jiaolong Palace in the Black River and how some of its cultivators escaped into the Burial Immortal Land.

Master Tianyun offered Lu Cheng'an an explanation, but it was mostly speculation.

The sealing of the Burial Grounds will weaken the power of cultivators outside, and it only prevents cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above from entering.

If someone is below the Nascent Soul realm and is an outsider who wants to enter the Burial Ground of Immortals, there is indeed a certain chance of success.

However, cultivators inside the Burial Ground have virtually no chance of escaping.

According to Master Tianyun's speculation, when the Burial Ground of Immortals was sealed off, a group of cultivators were also sealed off in the outer area of ​​the Burial Ground of Immortals to maintain the operation of the seal.

The seal within the Burial Ground of Immortals has existed for countless years. The cultivators who were sealed in the outer area of ​​the Burial Ground of Immortals may have left behind their descendants, but they may have forgotten their origins.

The information speculated by Master Tianyun differed greatly from the information passed down by sects such as the Ancient Desolate Sect. As for what happened in between, Lu Cheng'an had no way of knowing.

However, the information about the Burial Ground of Immortals that Master Tianyun told Lu Cheng'an was still very helpful to him.

Lu Cheng'an and Master Tianyun arrived at Jinding Mountain while they were talking.

The purification magic array at Jinding Mountain was only recently completed. Although the array is of mid-grade fifth rank, the mountain is still filled with demonic energy and is not suitable for normal cultivators.

After Tianyun Shangren and Lu Cheng'an and his wife arrived at Jinding Mountain, he gave Lu Cheng'an some more instructions, telling him to send him a message immediately if he encountered any difficulties, and that he would definitely provide him with assistance.

However, Master Tianyun did not stay at Jinding Mountain for too long. After giving Lu Cheng'an some instructions, he left Jinding Mountain with the two mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from Yinhua Sect and Tianshi Sect who were originally stationed there.

Lu Cheng'an has just crafted the fifth-grade low-rank magic treasures, the Gathering Yin Pool, the Golden Mother Yuan Plate, and the Seven Elements Nourishing Spirit Flag, for the Yin Hua Sect and the Heavenly Corpse Sect.

Both sects are now working hard to refine these three magic treasures, hoping to cultivate new cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible using their power.

After Master Tianyun and the other two left, only Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu remained on the vast Golden Cauldron Mountain.

Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu first carefully inspected Jin Ding Mountain, and then went together to the core area of ​​the purification magic array.

Jin Ding Mountain has four fifth-order demonic veins. The ends of these four fifth-order demonic veins are connected to form a demonic spring with surging demonic energy.

The water of the Demon Spring is formed from the liquefaction of pure demonic energy.

Every so often, a demonic orb similar to the spirit orb will be born in the demonic spring.

Geng Muhua then placed the core of the purification magic array into this magic spring.

The dense demonic energy within the demonic spring has now dissipated considerably, showing signs of transforming back into spiritual energy. After arriving at the demonic spring, Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu retrieved the jade slip left by Geng Muhua to activate the purification magic array.

“Ningyu, let’s work together to activate the purification magic array and rely on the power of the spirit pearl to purify the demonic energy in this demonic spring as soon as possible. Only then will we have a place to rest on Golden Cauldron Mountain!” Lu Cheng’an said with a smile.

This demonic spring is the most difficult to purify, but if it can be successfully purified, the time required to purify the demonic energy of Golden Cauldron Mountain can be greatly shortened.

After Lu Cheng'an taught Shi Ningyu the method to activate the purification magic array, the two of them activated the purification magic array together.

With a loud roar, the demonic liquid transformed from pure demonic energy in the demonic spring immediately boiled.

These magical liquids vibrated violently and were transformed back into demonic energy.

After this situation continued for five days, Lu Cheng'an stopped activating the purification magic array and quickly took out five thousand spirit beads from his storage ring and threw them into the magic spring.

At this time, more than half of the demonic liquid in the demonic spring had been converted back into demonic energy. After the five thousand spirit orbs were thrown into the demonic spring, they were instantly shattered by Lu Cheng'an.

A rich spiritual energy emanated from the shattered spirit pearl, instantly covering the entire demonic spring.

At this moment, the remaining half of the demonic liquid in the demonic spring was instantly transformed into demonic energy, and then, under the impact of the dense spiritual energy and the transformation of the purification magic array, it was transformed back into spiritual energy.

After Lu Cheng'an shattered all five thousand spirit beads, he immediately worked with Shi Ningyu to activate the purification magic array.

With the power of these five thousand spirit orbs, the demonic energy surging in the demonic spring quickly disappeared.

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

At this moment, Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu stopped activating the purification magic array and relied solely on the array's own operation to purify the surging demonic energy of Jinding Mountain.

"The demonic energy in the Demon Spring has been completely transformed into spiritual energy. The spiritual energy transformed in this area is now sufficient for our cultivation."

"However, we should still rely on the Spirit Pearl for cultivation and try not to deplete the demonic energy of Golden Cauldron Mountain, as this will slow down the conversion speed of the purification magic array on the demonic energy of Golden Cauldron Mountain!"

Looking at the surging spiritual energy in the demonic spring before him, Lu Cheng'an couldn't help but smile faintly.

It's no longer appropriate to call it the Demon Spring, as there's no longer any demonic energy in it. It would be more suitable to call it the Spirit Pool.

The spiritual energy surging in the spiritual energy pool was extremely dense. If it weren't for the purification magic array constantly consuming the spiritual energy in the pool to transform the demonic energy of the entire Golden Cauldron Mountain, the dense spiritual energy in the pool would have condensed into spiritual liquid in no time, and the spiritual energy pool would have turned into a spiritual spring.

"I plan to try refining a Pure Yang Elixir, which shouldn't require too much spiritual energy," Shi Ningyu said with a smile.

"Keep these five thousand spirit pearls safe, just in case!"

Lu Cheng'an still has more than 20,000 spirit pearls on him. After he gives 5,000 spirit pearls to Shi Ningyu, he will still have more than 20,000 spirit pearls left.

Shi Ningyu didn't stand on ceremony with Lu Cheng'an. After accepting the five thousand spirit pearls, she found a suitable spot next to the spirit pool and prepared to try refining a pure yang elixir.

Pure Yang Elixir is a commonly used elixir for Nascent Soul cultivators, and its refining difficulty is not particularly high.

Shi Ningyu has a great talent for alchemy, and she has studied the method of refining Pure Yang Elixir for a long time. She is quite confident that she can refine Pure Yang Elixir.

Lu Cheng'an also stayed next to the spiritual energy pool, meditating and refining the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual pearl.

He had previously used his Demon Hunter Points to exchange for two cultivation aids: the Spirit Nourishing Fruit and the Immortal Spirit Nourishing Pill. Their effects were even stronger than those of the Void Divine Fruit.

Lu Cheng'an had exchanged for these two spiritual items some time ago, but he had not yet used them.

He no longer uses these two spiritual items to aid his cultivation, mainly because Jin Ding Mountain is no longer a safe place for focused cultivation.

Lu Cheng'an felt that Wang Yuhua would definitely not give up Jinding Mountain easily. Even if he knew that a Nascent Soul cultivator had occupied Jinding Mountain, he would try his best to destroy it.

Previously, the two cultivators at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm from the Heavenly Corpse Sect and the Yin Hua Sect were in charge of guarding Jin Ding Mountain. Even if Wang Yuhua had this idea, she certainly wouldn't dare to take action.

After all, the presence of two mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators guarding Golden Cauldron Mountain is an extremely formidable force.

To forcefully suppress two mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, at least three mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators would be needed.

Of course, this excludes cultivators like Lu Cheng'an who are nearly invincible among those of the same level.

The two mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from the Heavenly Corpse Sect and the Yinhua Sect have only recently left, so Wang Yuhua may not have received the news yet.

However, once Wang Yuhua finds out that Lu Chengan is currently at Jinding Mountain, she will definitely take action.

At that time, Wang Yuhua not only wanted to take back Jinding Mountain, but also wanted to take revenge on Lu Cheng'an!
Because the three Nascent Soul cultivators who died in the Wang family were all killed by Lu Cheng'an!

As Lu Chengan had predicted, Wang Yuhua had indeed been keeping a close eye on the situation at Jinding Mountain.

After discovering that the demonic energy of Jinding Mountain had not dissipated, he knew that no cultivator had yet occupied Jinding Mountain.

This discovery put him at ease, because if a cultivator occupied Golden Cauldron Mountain and transformed its demonic veins back into spiritual veins, then even if he reclaimed Golden Cauldron Mountain, it would be of no use.

During this time, he kept trying to persuade the Nascent Soul demon cultivators he was on good terms with to join him in reclaiming Golden Cauldron Mountain, but unfortunately no Nascent Soul demon cultivator agreed.

They learned that the two Nascent Soul cultivators currently stationed at Golden Cauldron Mountain were mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, from the Yin Hua Sect and the Heavenly Corpse Sect respectively.

Both sects are quite powerful, with their sect leaders both possessing cultivation levels in the late Nascent Soul stage.

If they were to anger these two sects, it could provoke their retaliation.

Although Wang Yuhua had not been able to find any help, he never gave up on the matter.

In addition, Wang Yuhua is also dedicated to cultivating a Nascent Soul cultivator in the Wang family, hoping to produce another Deity Transformation cultivator in the Wang family.

The Wang family's strength is not weak in Qianyuan Prefecture. This time, the Wang family directly lost three cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, and they also had some connection with the Blood Sun Demon Lord of the Yuanshui Demon Sect.

After the cultivators from Yunhai Sect and Mingyue Mountain withdrew from Qianyuan Prefecture, Yuanshui Demon Sect provided some appeasement and compensation to the demonic forces that suffered significant losses in Qianyuan Prefecture.

The Wang family lost three Nascent Soul cultivators, but obtained a Yin Water Demon Transformation Pill from the Yuan Shui Demon Sect to aid in breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm. This was an extremely high-grade pill for assisting Nascent Soul demon cultivators in breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm. (End of Chapter)
