Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

"Fellow Daoists, breaking through from the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm to the late-stage is not an easy task. Although the cultivation environment of Fire Dao Lake is far superior to other places, Lu Cheng'an has only been in Fire Dao Lake for a year at most," Qingyunzi sighed softly.

When Lu Cheng'an entered the Fire Path Lake, he was not at the critical point of breaking through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. It would probably take him some more time to break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

The Elder of Ten Thousand Corpses and the Venerable Tianyun didn't say much. After exchanging a glance, they both couldn't help but show a bitter smile.

Among the Nascent Soul cultivators present, they knew Lu Cheng'an best. They were also more aware that it was impossible for Lu Cheng'an to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage in a short period of time, since it hadn't been long since Lu Cheng'an's cultivation had reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage.

"Then what do you suggest we do now? The demonic cultivators in Qianyuan Prefecture are acting like madmen. If they continue to launch attacks relentlessly, your Yunhai Sect's protective formation simply won't hold."

"Without the assistance of a fifth-tier top-grade magic array, we are utterly powerless to withstand the attacks of the demonic cultivators from Qian Yuan Prefecture!" the White Wolf King said coldly.

The Nascent Soul cultivators, including the White Wolf Emperor, dared not withdraw from the Cloud Sea Sect, because the demonic cultivators of Qian Yuan Prefecture were the common enemy of the three prefectures.

Once the Yunhai Sect is destroyed, they will be unable to withstand the attacks of the demonic cultivators from Qianyuan Prefecture.

"Why not gather all the fifth-tier spirit array masters from our three states to the Cloud Sea Sect? With so many spirit array masters activating the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array, we might be able to block the attack from the demonic cultivators of Qian Yuan State!" suggested Ancestor Zi Xiao.

"How many fifth-tier spirit array masters do we have in our three states? The one with the highest skill in spirit arrays is still Fellow Daoist Chen Hua of the Cloud Sea Sect. Even if all the fifth-tier spirit array masters from the three states came, I don't think it would be of much use!" the White Wolf Emperor said coldly.

Yunhai Sect's Chen Hua's cultivation level is at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and his mastery of spirit arrays is also just at the mid-grade level of the fifth rank.

The Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array, the protective array of the Cloud Sea Sect, is extremely complex and has reached the fifth-order top grade. Even if Chen Hua fully activates it, he cannot fully unleash the power of the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array.

The restoration of the collapsed array patterns of the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array was extremely difficult, and the attacks from the demonic cultivators of Qian Yuan Prefecture were too frequent. It was precisely because of this that the power of the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array became weaker and weaker.

Because this top-grade fifth-tier magic array has never been completely repaired.

Upon hearing the White Wolf King's voice, Chen Hua couldn't help but feel embarrassed. It was all his fault for being so incompetent; otherwise, their Cloud Sea Sect wouldn't be in such a bad situation now.

While the Nascent Soul cultivators, including the White Wolf Emperor, were still engaged in heated discussions, the Heavenly Cloud Venerable and the Ten Thousand Corpses Elder couldn't help but have their minds wander, as they both thought of Lu Jingkun.

They both knew of Lu Jingkun's existence and that he was at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, a fifth-tier spirit array master.

If Lu Cheng'an was able to refine a high-grade fifth-order magic weapon with a cultivation level of mid-stage Nascent Soul, then Lu Jingkun might also be able to set up a mid-grade fifth-order magic array with a cultivation level of early-stage Nascent Soul.

Chen Hua is a mid-grade fifth-level spirit array master, but he has only just reached the mid-grade level of the fifth level. Perhaps Lu Jingkun's mastery of spirit arrays will surpass Chen Hua's.

After exchanging a glance, Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren instantly understood each other's meaning.

Instead of immediately informing the Nascent Soul cultivators around them about Lu Jingkun, they first took out a communication artifact and sent a message to Shi Ningyu, inquiring about Lu Jingkun's situation.

Both Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren had Shi Ningyu's communication methods, but they had never contacted Shi Ningyu before.

The reason they sent a message to Shi Ningyu to inquire about Lu Jingkun, instead of asking Lu Cheng'an, was because they didn't want to delay Lu Cheng'an's cultivation.

They knew that only if Lu Cheng'an's cultivation successfully broke through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm could the crisis in the three states of Mengyuan Prefecture be resolved.

Enhancing the power of the Cloud Sea Sect's protective mountain array can only slightly delay the situation in the three prefectures of Dreamland, and cannot play a decisive role.

Jinding Mountain.

After Lu Cheng'an left, Shi Ningyu and Lu Jingkun did not go into seclusion to cultivate, but instead focused on preparing to upgrade the Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiend Formation.

Lu Jingkun has a high talent in spirit arrays, and the inheritance of a fifth-level top-grade spirit array master that Lu Chengan purchased from the Demon Hunter List at great cost has a very good effect.

While studying the fifth-tier top-grade spirit array master's inheritance, Lu Jingkun also began to improve the grade of the Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiend Array.

Over the course of a year, Lu Jingkun's mastery of spirit arrays has improved significantly, and he has now just reached the standard of a fifth-grade high-level spirit array master.

However, it is too difficult to upgrade the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation to the fifth-grade upper level. Lu Jingkun has only upgraded the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation to the fifth-grade middle level.

It will take him a long time to upgrade the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation to the fifth-grade superior level.

When Tianyun Shangren sent a message to inquire about Lu Jingkun's level in the art of spirit arrays, he also explained the current situation of the Yunhai Sect to Shi Ningyu.

After seeing the message from Master Tianyun, Shi Ningyu immediately notified Lu Jingkun to go to the small council hall on Jinding Mountain.

"This is a message from Master Tianyun of the Yin Hua Sect. Take a look!"

After Lu Jingkun entered the small council hall, Shi Ningyu immediately handed her communication artifact to Lu Jingkun for inspection.

"I never imagined that the situation at Yunhai Sect would be so critical!"

Upon seeing the message, Lu Jingkun exclaimed in surprise, then said in a deep voice, "Right now, I've only upgraded the mountain-protecting formation to the mid-grade fifth rank. If, after I leave, Golden Cauldron Mountain is attacked by a late-stage Nascent Soul demonic cultivator, the power of the mid-grade fifth-rank Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiend Formation might not be enough to withstand the attack!"

"You don't need to worry too much about that. Master Qinghe and the other nine early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators are still at Golden Cauldron Mountain. If they use the Nine Peaks Divine Strike Combination Divine Power, they should be able to hold off the late-stage Nascent Soul demonic cultivators for a while!"

"And don't forget the Golden-Splitting Divine Arrow in my hand. If I were to unleash its full power, it could severely injure a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage!"

"Currently, the demonic cultivators of Qianyuan Prefecture are launching a full-scale attack on Yunhai Sect, and it may not be possible to spare any more late-stage Nascent Soul demonic cultivators to attack other Nascent Soul forces in the three prefectures of Mengyuan Prefecture."

"The situation at Yunhai Sect is extremely critical. If you agree, I will give Master Tianyun an answer right now, and you will set off for Yunhai Sect immediately," Shi Ningyu said quickly.

"I have no objection, let's listen to Auntie!" Lu Jingkun said.

After Lu Jingkun agreed, Shi Ningyu immediately sent a message to Tianyun Shangren, informing him of Lu Jingkun's current mastery of spirit arrays and that Lu Jingkun had already gone to Yunhai Sect to provide support.

Shi Ningyu moved extremely fast. After she consulted with Lu Jingkun about sending a message to Tianyun Shangren, the discussion among Qingyunzi and others in the Yunhai Sect's council hall had not yet ended.

Upon receiving Shi Ningyu's message, Master Tianyun's face immediately lit up with joy, but he was also quite shocked. According to Shi Ningyu's message, Lu Jingkun had already reached the threshold of a fifth-tier high-grade spirit array master.

Needless to say, such mastery of spirit arrays is definitely superior to that of Chen Hua, a mid-grade fifth-level spirit array master from the Yunhai Sect.

After digesting the message from Shi Ningyu, Tianyun Shangren looked at the White Wolf King and other cultivators who were still arguing fiercely, and then said loudly, "Fellow Daoists, please stop for a moment. I think Fellow Daoist Zixiao's suggestion to invite a spirit array master is excellent. As for the problem that Fellow Daoist Wolf King is worried about, I can solve it. We have a fifth-grade high-level spirit array master in Mengyuan Prefecture!"

"There are fifth-tier high-grade spirit array masters in Mengyuan Prefecture? How come I didn't know that?" Hongying Yuanjun said with a frown.

The Desire Spirit Sect is the most powerful Nascent Soul sect in Dreamland Prefecture, and it is also the most knowledgeable about the situation in Dreamland Prefecture.

But apart from Lu Cheng'an, who was an unexpected case.

Now that Master Tianyun has said that there are fifth-tier high-grade spirit array masters in Mengyuan Prefecture, does that mean there is information about Mengyuan Prefecture that they have not yet grasped?
“Fellow Daoist Tianyun, this is no laughing matter. I wonder who this fifth-tier high-grade spirit array master you mentioned is? And can you invite him here?” the White Wolf Emperor asked in a deep voice.

A fifth-tier superior spirit array master is extremely rare; even the Cloud Sea Sect does not have a spirit array master of this rank.

Moreover, the fifth-tier high-grade spirit array master that Master Tianyun mentioned was someone even Hongying Yuanjun didn't know, so he must be someone who is not easy to get along with.

Such people often have eccentric temperaments and may not be willing to take action.

"You all probably don't recognize this fifth-tier high-grade spirit array master, but you've all met one of his elders. His elder is Lu Cheng'an, and this fifth-tier high-grade spirit array master is named Lu Jingkun. He is a nephew of Lu Cheng'an's clan and has the cultivation of the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage!"

Master Tianyun smiled slightly and said, "I have already contacted Lu Jingkun. He has already set off from the Lu family and should be able to come to Yunhai Sect soon."

"Lu Jingkun is actually Lu Cheng'an's nephew. Just what kind of background does the Lu family have? I don't think I've ever heard of them before?"

…………

Upon hearing about Lu Jingkun's background, the Nascent Soul cultivators, including Hongying Yuanjun, immediately began to discuss among themselves.

They had already witnessed Lu Cheng'an's strength, and one of his nephews was also so talented that he was already a fifth-level high-grade spirit array master with the cultivation of the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Then he's guaranteed to become a top-tier fifth-order spirit array master in the future!
A spirit array master of this rank would hold a very high position not only in a Nascent Soul sect, but also in a Void Refining sect.

After listening to the discussion, Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren did not say anything more.

Because there were still some things they hadn't told Hongying Yuanjun and the others, such as Lu Cheng'an's Daoist partner's early Nascent Soul cultivation level, and that he was a mid-grade fifth-rank alchemist.

Among the Nascent Soul cultivators in the Lu family, there is also a fourth-tier top-grade spirit plant master. As far as they know, that fourth-tier top-grade spirit plant master's cultivation talent is also quite remarkable. He will definitely be able to break through to the Divine Transformation realm in the future, and at that time he will definitely be able to become a fifth-tier spirit plant master.

Of course, the most important thing is some information about Lu Cheng'an, such as that Lu Cheng'an is a fifth-grade high-quality weapon refiner and does not have much hope of becoming a fifth-grade top-quality weapon refiner in a short period of time.

They didn't reveal any of this information. If they had, it would have shocked the Nascent Soul cultivators like Hongying Yuanjun even more.

The two cultivators, Bai Langhuang and Qingyunzi, who were both at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, couldn't think of any particularly good solutions. After discussing it, they decided to wait until Lu Jingkun arrived at the Yunhai Sect and tested his abilities in spirit arrays before making any further decisions.

There are still some damaged array patterns in the Cloud Sea Sect's protective array that haven't been repaired because Chen Hua's abilities are insufficient to repair them.

It is precisely for this reason that the power of the Cloud Sea Sect's protective mountain formation has become weaker and weaker.

Lu Jingkun traveled much slower than Lu Cheng'an, but he had taken a teleportation array when he set off from Jinding Mountain, and continued to use it all the way. By the time he arrived at Yunhai Sect, it hadn't taken too long.

After arriving near the Cloud Sea Sect via a teleportation array, Lu Jingkun did not immediately reveal himself, but instead sent a message to Venerable Tianyun.

The area around Yunhai Sect is extremely dangerous; you might encounter Nascent Soul stage demon cultivators from Qianyuan Prefecture there.

Although Lu Jingkun is highly skilled in spirit arrays, his cultivation level is only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. If he encounters a demonic cultivator at the mid-to-late Nascent Soul realm, he is likely to face mortal danger.

After receiving Lu Jingkun's message, Master Tianyun immediately informed Qingyunzi and the White Wolf Emperor.

Afterwards, the two cultivators at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm secretly left the Yunhai Sect's mountain gate together with Tianyun Shangren and personally brought Lu Jingkun back to the Yunhai Sect.

“Fellow Daoist Lu, this is Chen Hua, a mid-grade fifth-level spirit array master from our Yunhai Sect. He is very familiar with the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array. You should talk to Chen Hua and let him show you the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array.”

"Chen Hua, you will now fully cooperate with Fellow Daoist Lu to restore the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array. You must do your utmost to meet Fellow Daoist Lu's needs!" Qing Yunzi said in a deep voice.

The demonic cultivators of Qianyuan Prefecture are now attacking their Yunhai Sect. Once the sect's gates are breached, their Yunhai Sect will suffer the greatest loss.

"I will obey the Lord's decree!" Chen Hua said respectfully.

Qingyunzi was very anxious. After bringing Lu Jingkun back to Yunhai Sect, he did not let Lu Jingkun meet with the Nascent Soul cultivators like Hongying Yuanjun. Instead, he took Lu Jingkun directly to find Chen Hua.

He hoped that Lu Jingkun could quickly familiarize himself with the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array and then repair the array patterns that had not yet been repaired.

Lu Jingkun had a certain understanding of the current situation of the Yunhai Sect, so he could understand Qingyunzi's actions.

Moreover, he didn't want to waste time on other things; what he wanted most was to study the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array, the protective array of the Cloud Sea Sect.

This formation is of the highest grade, the fifth rank. If he can thoroughly understand this formation, he can greatly shorten the time it takes to become a fifth-rank high-grade spirit formation master.

Lu Jingkun is not yet a fifth-grade high-level spirit array master; he has only just reached the threshold of becoming a fifth-grade high-level spirit array master.

However, Master Tianyun felt that all the cultivators in the Lu family were abnormal. He felt that there was no difference between Lu Jingkun touching the threshold of becoming a fifth-grade high-level spirit array master and already being a fifth-grade high-level spirit array master. Therefore, he directly introduced Lu Jingkun to Qingyunzi and other Nascent Soul cultivators as a fifth-grade extremely high-level spirit array master.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, this is the main array plate controlling the Divine Dawn Cloud Light Array. The jade slip records the array's setup and control methods. Familiarize yourself with this array first. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me," Chen Hua said with a smile. (End of Chapter)
