Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

The place Zhou Hongyu mentioned, where the Earthly Fiend Mystic Milk was nurtured, was also in the outer void, even more distant from the boundary passage, and far more dangerous than the Residual Sun Grand Canyon.

Upon learning this news, Lu Cheng'an abandoned his plan to go to the place Zhou Hongyu had mentioned to obtain the Earthly Fiend Mystic Spirit Milk.

Over the years, he had asked Master Tianyun and the other person to collect some Earthly Fiend Mystic Milk. He would continue to collect more slowly, and there was no need to venture into the outer void again.

On their way back, Lu Cheng'an told Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren about this matter and asked them to help him collect some more Di Sha Xuanling Milk.

After examining the materials Lu Chengan had collected for building the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation, a pleased smile immediately appeared on Lu Jingkun's face.

"We don't lack much Earthly Fiend Mystic Milk, so I can slowly build the Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiend Formation now!" Lu Jingkun said with a hint of excitement.

"I'll need you to take care of this matter; I can't offer you much help!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile.

A moment later, Lu Jingkun left with the materials for building the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation, preparing for its construction.

Before he could begin constructing the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation, he needed to use those two fifth-order spiritual vein beads to cultivate two more fifth-order spiritual veins at Golden Cauldron Mountain.

The two fifth-order spirit vein beads were of superior quality, and the fourth-order spirit veins of Jinding Mountain were also of high quality.

It wouldn't be difficult for Lu Jingkun to cultivate two more fifth-order spiritual veins in Jinding Mountain using those two fifth-order spiritual vein beads.

After Lu Cheng'an and Lu Jingkun parted ways, Lu Cheng'an sent a message to Master Qinghe and the others, telling them to hurry up and leave seclusion so he could meet with them.

Since entering Jinding Mountain, the cultivators, including Master Qinghe, who had reached the Nascent Soul stage, had been diligently cultivating in seclusion in their caves, preparing to break through to the Deity Transformation stage.

Originally, Lu Cheng'an only intended to provide these people with spiritual energy to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, and would not provide them with any further assistance.

However, after careful consideration, he realized that Nascent Soul cultivators like Master Qinghe, who had a high chance of breaking through to the Divine Transformation realm, were extremely rare.

If possible, he would try his best to help them break through to the Nascent Soul realm, which is why he purchased three Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pills at the Wanbao Fair in Lingxu City.

After Lu Cheng'an sent a message to Qinghe Shangren and other cultivators at the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, they quickly left their cave and arrived at the council hall of Jinding Mountain.

"Greetings, Senior Lu!"

The people like Master Qinghe were much older than Lu Cheng'an, but Lu Cheng'an's strength far surpassed theirs.

Moreover, they all now make a living under Lu Cheng'an's command, so they are extremely respectful to him.

"Fellow Daoists, please don't be nervous, please have a seat!"

Lu Cheng'an smiled slightly, and after Qinghe Shangren and the others sat down, he asked with a smile, "You have all been in seclusion for the past few years. How are your preparations going? How confident are you of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm?"

"Reporting to Senior Lu, Dao'an, Youlian, and I are ready and can attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul realm at any time!"

“Xuanmiao, Qinglian, and Daocheng are also quite confident in breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm,” Master Qinghe replied with a smile.

Master Qinghe, Daojun Zhenjun, and Youlian Zhenjun are the strongest among these Nascent Soul cultivators; they are all beings who have condensed a Dao Domain.

The talents of Xuanmiao Zhenjun, Qinglian Zhenjun, and Daocheng Zhenjun are relatively inferior to those of Qinghe Shangren and his companions, but they still have a good chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.

All six of them were cultivators from Yuanzhou and Lianzhou.

“Senior Lu, Wenjian and I are also quite confident in breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm!” True Monarch Lieyang followed up.

True Lord Lieyang and True Lord Wenjian are cultivators from Qing and He states, respectively. They have a closer relationship with the Lu family, but their talents are still somewhat inferior to those of cultivators from Yuan and Lian states.

Besides these eight people, there are also many cultivators at the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm.

Although there are some differences among these cultivators at the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, the differences between them are not significant.

Lu Cheng'an scanned the Nascent Soul cultivators, including Master Qinghe, one by one, and then took out the three Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pills from his storage ring.

"This is the Pure Yang Spirit Condensation Pill, which can help cultivators at the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm break through to the Deity Transformation Realm. I currently have three in total, and I intend to give these three Pure Yang Spirit Condensation Pills to you to take!"

The moment Lu Cheng'an's voice fell, apart from Qinghe Shangren, Dao'an Zhenjun, and Youlian Zhenjun, the breathing of the other Nascent Soul cultivators became rapid.

Master Qinghe and the other two already knew about this matter; Lu Cheng'an had asked for their opinions back then.

These three individuals have all condensed their Dao Domains at the Nascent Soul stage. Even without relying on the power of the Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill, they are highly confident that they can break through to the Deity Transformation stage.

Of course, if they break through with the help of the Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill, their chances of becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator will be even greater.

Although the Pure Yang Concentrating Spirit Pill can reduce the risk of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, if they rely on the Pure Yang Concentrating Spirit Pill to break through, it will also have a certain impact on their subsequent strength.

Lu Cheng'an had informed Qinghe Shangren and the other two of this news early on, so that they would seriously consider whether or not to use the Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill to break through. He would respect their choice.

If they choose to use the Pure Yang Concentration Pill to break through, Lu Cheng'an will give them the Pure Yang Concentration Pill first, since their chances of successfully breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm will be greater.

"However, I have one condition: this Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill is extremely precious. After you break through with the help of the Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill, you must serve my Lu family for three thousand years!" Lu Cheng'an said in a deep voice.

The lifespan of a cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm is only eight thousand years, with three thousand years accounting for almost half of their lifespan.

Even without relying on the Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill to break through, one would still need to serve the Lu family free of charge for a thousand years.

After all, it was Lu Cheng'an who led them away from the Burial Ground of Immortals, providing them with the opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Lu Cheng'an had already told them all this before they left, and they had all agreed to it.

As for whether they would dare to break this agreement after breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, Lu Cheng'an felt that they definitely wouldn't.

After all, even if Qinghe Shangren and the others broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, they were still far from being his match.

"You don't need to rush to give me an answer. You can go back and think about it carefully!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile.

"Senior Lu, the three of us do not need to rely on the Pure Yang Spirit Condensation Pill to break through. If Senior Lu allows, we will begin our seclusion now to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm!"

Master Qinghe and the other two stood up from their seats, their faces serious.

They had been considering this for years; this was a decision they had made after careful consideration. "Okay!" Lu Cheng'an chuckled softly.

The cultivators at the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm, including True Lord Lieyang, looked at the three people, Qinghe Shangren, with envy in their eyes.

They also knew about the situation of Master Qinghe and his two companions, and knew the source of their confidence.

However, they are quite different from Master Qinghe. If they do not rely on the Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill to break through, their chances of failing will be very high.

However, Lu Cheng'an only had three Pure Yang Concentrating Spirit Pills, so they had to try their best to obtain them.

Lu Cheng'an ignored them. After informing the Nascent Soul Perfection cultivators, such as True Lord Lieyang, about the Pure Yang Condensing Spirit Pill, he told them to go back and think about it carefully.

The three, including Master Qinghe, returned to their respective caves and began seclusion to adjust their condition and attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

The cave dwellings of Nascent Soul cultivators like Master Qinghe were all built on fifth-order spiritual veins. In particular, the cave dwellings of Master Qinghe and his two companions had extremely rich spiritual energy, which was more than enough for them to break through to the Divine Transformation realm.

After leaving the council hall, Lu Cheng'an went to Shi Ningyu's cave.

"Ningyu, I'm back!"

Lu Cheng'an smiled and looked at Shi Ningyu, and began to tell her about his experience on his trip to Lingxu City.

"This is the essence of the Flame Horned Fire Deer's flesh and blood. However, we are currently lacking the auxiliary materials for refining the Fire Deer Pill. You can study the Fire Deer Pill formula first. The Yin Hua Sect and the Heavenly Corpse Sect are already collecting the auxiliary materials for refining the Fire Deer Pill!"

Shi Ningyu quickly reviewed the jade slip containing the recipe for the Fire Deer Pill. She discovered that this pill was very difficult to refine, and that it would be a considerable challenge for her to refine it with her current alchemy skills.

"I'll give you these three Pure Yang Spirit Condensing Pills. The Blazing Sun True Monarch and the others will definitely agree to the conditions I set. However, there are only three Pure Yang Spirit Condensing Pills. You should give these three Pure Yang Spirit Condensing Pills to the person who has the best chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm!"

After handing the Pure Yang Concentration Pill to Shi Ningyu, Lu Cheng'an continued, "I'm going into seclusion for a while to try and break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm!"

"My lord, you should focus on your breakthrough. Leave these matters to me!" Upon hearing that Lu Cheng'an was about to break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, Shi Ningyu's face immediately lit up with joy.

Not long after, Lu Cheng'an returned to his cave and began to cultivate in seclusion, fusing the antlers of the Flame Horned Deer into his Dao Domain.

Inside the cave, Lu Cheng'an spread out his Dao Domain.

A fiery red spirit tree took root in the Dao Domain. Its branches and leaves swayed, shimmering with fiery red spiritual light, making it look extremely extraordinary.

This is the Crimson Phoenix Spirit Wood. After Lu Cheng'an cultivated the Crimson Phoenix Refining Void Technique to the minor completion level, the Crimson Phoenix Spirit Wood rooted in his Dao Domain grew rapidly.

At this moment, Lu Cheng'an took out the antlers of the Flame Horned Deer from his storage ring.

The antlers of the Flame-Horned Deer are very large, and the base of the antlers is directly connected to its skull, making them impossible to separate.

It was for this reason that Zhou Hongyu directly cut off the head of the Flame Horned Fire Deer and handed it to Lu Cheng'an.

The Flame Horned Deer's antlers and head were currently sealed. After Lu Cheng'an absorbed it into his Dao Domain, he released the seal.

At this moment, a fierce aura surged out from the head of the Flame Horned Fire Deer, causing a slight tremor in Lu Cheng'an's Dao Domain.

Lu Cheng'an let out a cold snort. He quickly cast a spell, and surging fire power rose from his Dao Domain, rapidly engulfing the head of the Flame Horned Fire Deer.

Once the fire energy dissipated from the Flamehorn Fire Deer's head, the ferocious aura emanating from its head completely disappeared.

After sensing this change, Lu Cheng'an exhaled a breath of turbid air, then began to refine the power of the Flame Horn Fire Deer's antlers by performing hand seals.

This process was very slow, and Lu Cheng'an was prepared.

Not long after Lu Cheng'an announced his seclusion, cultivators at the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm, including True Monarch Lieyang, all made their own decisions.

Just as Lu Cheng'an said, they all chose to use the Pure Yang Concentration Pill to break through, even if they had to serve the Lu family for three thousand years without pay after their breakthrough!

Shi Ningyu had a deeper understanding of Nascent Soul cultivators like Lieyang Zhenjun than Lu Cheng'an did, which was one of the reasons why Lu Cheng'an entrusted this matter to Shi Ningyu.

Following Lu Cheng'an's instructions, Shi Ningyu handed over the three Pure Yang Concentrating Spirit Pills to Xuanmiao True Lord, Qinglian True Lord, and Wenjian True Lord respectively.

These three are actually quite similar to True Lord Lieyang and True Lord Daowen. Shi Ningyu chose these three because they have a higher probability of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.

After making her decision, Shi Ningyu handed the three Pure Yang Concentrating Spirit Pills to the three Xuanmiao True Monarchs.

Afterwards, the three of them returned to their respective caves and began attempting to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Even the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm cultivators like True Lord Lieyang and True Lord Daowen did not lose hope, and they returned to their respective caves to continue their dedicated cultivation.

Once the breakthroughs of the six Qinghe Shangren are complete, they will also attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul realm. Even though the chances of them breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm without relying on auxiliary spiritual objects are not high, they will still try.

During this period, Lu Jingkun began to focus all his efforts on cultivating fifth-order spiritual veins in Jinding Mountain using the two fifth-order spiritual vein beads.

Lu Jingkun cultivated the fifth-order spiritual veins very smoothly. He only spent half a year to successfully cultivate two fifth-order spiritual veins.

After these two fifth-order spiritual veins were cultivated, Jin Ding Mountain had the basic conditions to build the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Array.

Although Lu Jingkun is only building a fifth-order low-grade Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiend Array, the setup of this array is extremely difficult.

It will certainly take him a long time to successfully set up this formation.

Because Lu Cheng'an is currently in seclusion, and because he is still lacking some Earthly Fiend Profound Spirit Milk, Lu Jingkun, after cultivating the two fifth-order spiritual veins, simply imprinted array diagrams on various spiritual peaks of Golden Cauldron Mountain.

Once Lu Cheng'an emerges from seclusion and refines the array flags and array plates needed for setting up the formation, he will be able to construct the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Array in a very short time.

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

With a surge of intense spiritual energy, Dao An Zhenjun's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm finally came to fruition; he successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Dao An Zhenjun was the youngest of the three, and also the one with the best cultivation talent. He was also the first among the three to break through to the Nascent Soul realm!
After successfully breaking through, Dao An Zhenjun did not come out of the cave, but continued to consolidate his newly achieved cultivation level within the cave.

His successful breakthrough greatly boosted the confidence of Nascent Soul cultivators like True Monarch Lieyang. (End of Chapter)
