Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

Chapter 542 Strength Enhancement, Chu State Recruitment

Upon returning to their respective sects, the weapon refiners of Yin Hua Sect and Tian Shi Sect were immediately summoned by Tian Yun Shangren and Wan Shi Laoren.

The Heavenly Cloud Venerable and the Ten Thousand Corpses Elder mainly wanted to know Lu Cheng'an's current situation.

Not long after Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren sent the weapon refiners from the two sects to the Lu family's mountain gate, they received messages from Nascent Soul cultivators such as Hongying Yuanjun and Qingyunzi.

After the war between the Xuan Chen Realm and the Demon Cultivators broke out, the Nascent Soul cultivators, including Hong Ying Yuanjun and Qing Yunzi, contacted Lu Cheng'an, Tianyun Shangren, and the Ten Thousand Corpses Elder.

At that time, they were still in the endless void, and they learned about Lu Cheng'an and the others' whereabouts from the other Nascent Soul cultivators from the three other families.

This struck Hongying Yuanjun and Qingyunzi, among other Nascent Soul cultivators, as quite strange. They were very puzzled as to why Lu Cheng'an and his group would enter the Endless Void at that time.

After hearing that Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren had returned from the endless void, they immediately sent them a message, inquiring about their current situation.

They particularly inquired about Lu Cheng'an's current situation.

The news that Lu Cheng'an's cultivation had broken through to the Refining Void Realm had not yet been revealed. Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren did not dare to reveal this news casually. Therefore, they consulted the Lu family before sending a reply to Qingyunzi, Hongying Yuanjun, and other Nascent Soul cultivators.

The Lu family is not planning to reveal the news that Lu Cheng'an's cultivation has broken through to the Void Refinement Realm for the time being, mainly because the remaining two Void Refinement Realm cultivators of the Blood River Demon Sect have not yet been killed.

If the news of Lu Cheng'an's breakthrough to the Void Refinement Realm were to leak out at this time, it could potentially put Lu Cheng'an in danger.

However, Lu Cheng'an said there was no need to hide their true purpose for going to the endless void.

After receiving Lu Cheng'an's message, Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren briefly described their situation in the endless void, as Lu Cheng'an had instructed, and also talked about the Golden Spear Dharma Ship.

Qingyunzi and Hongying Yuanjun, along with other Nascent Soul cultivators, were very interested in the Golden Spear Dharma Ship, as it was a treasure capable of withstanding attacks from early-stage Void Refinement cultivators.

Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren did not hide anything; they told Qingyunzi, Hongying Yuanjun, and other Nascent Soul cultivators all the information they knew about the Golden Spear Dharma Ship.

When Tianyun Shangren and Wanshi Laoren learned from their sect's weapon refiners that Lu Cheng'an had successfully refined the Golden Spear Magic Ship, they were both overjoyed.

Lu Cheng'an's cultivation has already broken through to the Void Refinement Realm. In addition, with a Golden Spear Magic Ship comparable to an early Void Refinement Realm cultivator, the Lu family would essentially have two Void Refinement Realm warriors.

They have a close relationship with the Lu family, and the stronger the Lu family becomes, the better it is for them.

During the years that Lu Cheng'an was building the Golden Spear Dharma Ship, the three Void Refinement Realm forces of Lizhou Golden Flame Sect had been searching for the remaining two Void Refinement Realm demon cultivators of Blood River Demon Sect.

However, these two Void Refinement Realm demonic cultivators have never shown themselves, nor have they appeared in other regions of the Xuan Chen Realm. This has made the three Void Refinement Realm forces of the Golden Flame Sect constantly on guard against the two Void Refinement Realm demonic cultivators who have escaped.

The situation of the two Dao Integration Realm sects, Xuanxiao Sect and Zixia Mansion in Chuzhou, has not improved at all. The strength of the Innate Demon Sect is formidable, and the strength of Dao Lord Tianyuan is even more extraordinary.

The Xuanxiao Sect and the Zixia Mansion have consistently been at a disadvantage in their battles against the Xiantian Demon Sect. Over the years, the Zixia Mansion and the Xiantian Demon Sect have even lost cultivators at the Refinement Void Realm, which has made the situation of the Xuanxiao Sect and the Zixia Mansion increasingly worse.

Xuanxiao Sect and Zixia Mansion have begun to mobilize cultivators from other states to support Chuzhou. Lizhou has also sent some cultivators at the Refinement Realm. However, because the two Refinement Realm cultivators from the Blood River Demon Sect have not yet been dealt with, the number of Refinement Realm cultivators sent by Lizhou is still small.

These events did not have a significant impact on the Lu family. While Lu Cheng'an was building the Golden Spear Dharma Ship, the Lu family cultivators were also busy.

While Shi Ningyu was diligently refining the Heavenly Python Pill, Lu Cheng'an successfully refined the Golden Spear Magic Ship. Shi Ningyu also successfully refined the Heavenly Python Pill.

Shi Ningyu first refined a fifth-grade low-level Heavenly Python Pill. This grade of Heavenly Python Pill is relatively easy to refine, and the Lu family has the most cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, so their demand for fifth-grade low-level Heavenly Python Pills is also the greatest.

After these fifth-grade low-level Heavenly Python Pills were refined, they were exchanged by Lu Yonghui and other early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from the Lu family. Some of them had been at the Nascent Soul stage for some years, and with the medicinal power of the Heavenly Python Pills, they would probably be able to break through to the mid-stage Nascent Soul stage in no time.

Over the years, Lu Yonghui also led the Lu family's spiritual plant masters to successfully transplant the fire peach trees that Lu Chengan brought back from the endless void. At the same time, under Lu Chengan's instructions, he also gave several fifth-order fire peach trees to the Yin Hua Sect and the Tian Shi Sect respectively.

After dealing with these matters, he immediately went into seclusion, hoping to raise his cultivation level to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm as soon as possible.

The Lu family now possesses a large number of high-grade trees. Although Lu Yonghui has a high talent for cultivating spiritual plants, he still finds it somewhat difficult to cultivate those high-grade spiritual trees due to the limitations of his cultivation level.

Like Lu Yonghui, Lu Jinglin and other Lu family cultivators also began consuming the Heavenly Python Pill after obtaining it from Shi Ningyu, hoping to quickly raise their cultivation to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

The effects of the Heavenly Python Pill are not much different from those recorded in the classic texts. This kind of pill, which is infused with the power of the Great Dao, has a very significant effect on improving the cultivation level of Nascent Soul cultivators.

After consuming the Heavenly Python Pill for over a decade, Lu Yonghui and other early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from the Lu family successively broke through to the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm.

Meanwhile, after tireless efforts, the three Void Refinement Realm forces of the Golden Flame Sect in Lizhou finally located the remaining two Void Refinement Realm demon cultivators of the Blood River Demon Sect.

The two demonic cultivators at the Void Refinement Realm were in much worse condition than Granny Blackwater, one at the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm and the other at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm.

Even after so many years, neither of them has fully recovered from their injuries.

The reason why the two have not appeared in public for so many years is because they have been focusing on recovering from their injuries.

Upon discovering the whereabouts of the two Void Refinement Realm demonic cultivators, the three forces of the Golden Flame Sect immediately launched a swift and decisive attack, killing the two demonic cultivators.

Thus, the Blood River Demon Sect, a powerful demonic sect at the Void Refinement Realm, was completely annihilated in the Xuan Chen Realm!
The Blood River Demon Sect's influence was mainly limited to the neighboring states of Lizhou. After the Blood River Demon Sect was completely destroyed, those neighboring states of Lizhou would no longer be threatened by the demonic cultivators of the Xuan Chen Realm.

After the three Void Refinement Realm forces of the Golden Flame Sect killed the two Void Refinement Realm demon cultivators of the Blood River Demon Sect, they immediately received a summons from the Xuanxiao Sect.

Xuanxiao Sect ordered the three Void Refinement Realm forces, namely Jinyan Sect, to send their respective Void Refinement Realm cultivators and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to Chuzhou for support.

The number of cultivators at the Refinement Realm from the three families in Lizhou is not small. The Golden Flame Sect, the Spirit Void Sect, and the Jade Hill Hu Clan have a total of thirty-one cultivators at the Refinement Realm.

The Golden Flame Sect currently has eleven cultivators at the Refinement Void Realm, the Spirit Void Sect has fourteen, and the Jade Hill Hu Clan has six.

The three families have a total of eight cultivators at the Refinement Realm guarding the boundary passage: two from the Golden Flame Sect, four from the Spirit Void Sect, and two from the Jade Hill Hu Clan. After destroying the Blood River Demon Sect, the three families sent nine cultivators at the Refinement Realm to Chu Prefecture to provide support.

Excluding the eight people guarding the boundary passage, there are now only fourteen people left in total from the three Void Refinement Realm forces in Lizhou.

This time, the Xuanxiao Sect issued a clear order to the three Void Refinement Realm forces of the Golden Flame Sect, allowing each of them to leave at most two Void Refinement Realm cultivators to guard their mountain gates, while all other Void Refinement Realm cultivators must be conscripted to Chuzhou.

This also includes the eight Void Refinement Realm cultivators guarding the boundary passage!

The Dao Integration Realm cultivators from Xuanxiao Sect and Zixia Mansion have already informed Daoist Qingyuan, who is stationed at the boundary passage, and Daoist Qingyuan has agreed to the requests of the two sects.

Once the three Void Refinement Realm cultivators from the Golden Flame Sect help Chu Zhou deal with the cultivators from the Innate Demon Sect, then let these three Void Refinement Realm cultivators return to Li Town to guard it.

The cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm guarding the boundary passages are completely immobile. This applies not only to the boundary passages in Lizhou, but also to other boundary passages in the Xuanchen Realm.

There are quite a few cultivators guarding the boundary passages in the Xuan Chen Realm, especially in the six towns, where there are also powerful cultivators at the Tribulation Transcending Realm.

If all these cultivators were summoned back to the Xuan Chen Realm to deal with those demonic cultivators, it probably wouldn't take long to completely eliminate them.

The three families of the Golden Flame Sect in Lizhou were somewhat dissatisfied with the orders issued by the Xuanxiao Sect and the Zixia Mansion, because the two sects had ordered them to send out too many cultivators at the Refinement Void Realm.

If too many injuries occur during the battle with the demonic cultivators of the Innate Demonic Sect, it could very likely cause their sect to decline forever.

However, they dared not disobey the orders of the Xuanxiao Sect and the Zixia Mansion, especially at this time.

The three families of the Golden Flame Sect quickly followed the orders of the Xuanxiao Sect and the Zixia Mansion, and began to conscript cultivators at the Refinement Void Realm and the Nascent Soul Realm.

The order to mobilize troops was quickly relayed to the Lu family in the three prefectures of Mengyuan Prefecture and Qianyuan Prefecture.

"Just as Lizhou wiped out the last Void Refinement Realm demon cultivators of the Blood River Demon Sect, the Xuanxiao Sect and Zixia Mansion in Chuzhou issued a conscription order!"

Lu Cheng'an looked at the message from the Golden Flame Sect, sighed softly, and quickly walked out of the cave.

His cultivation level hasn't improved much over the years, but his strength has increased significantly compared to when he first broke through to the Void Refinement Realm.

He deduced the two supernatural powers, the Thousand-Year Seal and the Tranquil Ancient Seal, based on the ideas that came to mind, and even picked some leaves from the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree for this purpose.

Under Lu Yonghui's careful cultivation, the fifth-grade top-quality Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree has been successfully transplanted into the Lu Family Mountain Gate.

When Lu Cheng'an safely brought the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree out of that shattered void, he suspected that the tree's previous grade was likely at the sixth level.

It was only because the environment of that shattered void was too harsh that the ancient tea tree that had attained enlightenment had to drop its grade to the fifth level in order to protect itself.

As it turns out, Lu Cheng'an's conjecture was very likely correct; the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree was planted by Lu Yonghui at the node of the sixth-order spiritual vein.

The fifth-grade, top-quality Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree grew extremely rapidly, thanks to the rich spiritual energy released by the sixth-grade spiritual vein.

It has now fully taken root in the Lu family's mountain gate and has sprouted many new leaves, showing signs of recovering to the sixth rank.

Picking some leaves from the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree now may delay its recovery to level six, but it will not endanger its life.

After learning about the ancient tea tree from Lu Yonghui, Lu Cheng'an asked Lu Yonghui to pick some tea leaves from it.

After that, he used the power of the tea leaves produced by the Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree to begin deducing the two supernatural powers involving the power of time: the Thousand-Year Seal and the Quiet Ancient Seal.

Lu Cheng'an gained a lot from this deduction. He re-fused the Thousand-Year Seal and the Tranquil Ancient Seal into a divine power according to his idea. This divine power was named after its original name, the Thousand-Year Seal!

The Ancient Seal of Ages possesses the power of both the Thousand-Year Seal and the Tranquil Ancient Seal. Moreover, the Ancient Seal of Ages combines the strengths of both the Thousand-Year Seal and the Tranquil Ancient Seal. The power of the Ancient Seal of Ages after fusion is even stronger, making it a power greater than the sum of its parts.

Lu Cheng'an felt that with his current strength, even without sacrificing his own lifespan, he could still have a significant impact on cultivators stronger than him by activating the Ancient Seal.

This surpasses the original Thousand-Year Seal and Quiet Ancient Seal.

Besides the Thousand-Year Seal and the Tranquil Ancient Seal, Lu Cheng'an also conducted in-depth deductions on other supernatural powers such as the Golden Sparrow Born from the Sea of ​​Fire and the Heavenly Fire Seal.

These supernatural powers are much simpler than the Thousand-Year Seal and the Quiet Ancient Seal. Lu Cheng'an deduced that these supernatural powers did not borrow the power of the Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree.

He deduced these supernatural powers relatively smoothly, but these powers were still somewhat inferior to the Sui Gu Seal.

Besides divination of supernatural powers, Lu Cheng'an devoted his energy to cultivating the Crimson Wutong Spirit Wood and Fire Mulberry Spirit Wood in the Dao Domain.

Lu Cheng'an's Dao Domain contains one Crimson Wutong Spirit Wood and two Fire Mulberry Spirit Woods, all of which are of the highest grade of the fifth rank.

After Lu Cheng'an's cultivation broke through to the Refining Void Realm, his Dao Domain power greatly improved, and the three spiritual trees rooted in the Dao Domain also benefited considerably.

It's a pity that these three top-grade fifth-tier spirit trees did not successfully advance to the sixth tier!

After years of continuous efforts, Lu Cheng'an has upgraded the grade of the Crimson Phoenix Spirit Wood and one of the Fire Mulberry Spirit Woods to the sixth grade, lower grade.

The remaining fifth-grade top-quality Fire Mulberry Spirit Wood was slightly lacking in power, but Lu Cheng'an was confident that he could upgrade the remaining Fire Mulberry Spirit Wood to the sixth-grade low-quality in a short period of time.

The upgrade in the grade of the Crimson Phoenix Spirit Wood and the Fire Mulberry Spirit Wood not only enhanced the power of the two divine abilities, the Crimson Phoenix Refining Void Technique and the Fire Mulberry Dao Spirit Technique, but also brought about another very important change: it made Lu Cheng'an's Dao Domain more solid.

These three low-grade sixth-order spiritual trees are rooted in Lu Cheng'an's Dao Domain. Unless these three low-grade sixth-order spiritual trees are completely destroyed, Lu Cheng'an's Dao Domain will not completely collapse. (End of this chapter)
