Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

Chapter 74 A New Genius (Please subscribe and vote!)

Tier 1 minerals are not rare in the Burning Flame Mountains, but the unique environment of the Burning Flame Mountains has given birth to a large number of Tier 1 minerals.

Even races like the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider, which live deep within the Burning Flame Mountains, don't consider these Tier 1 minerals as treasures.

Therefore, when Zhu Yan heard that the Lu family needed first-tier minerals that she considered worthless, she prepared a lot for them during their last transaction.

Lu Cheng'an selected the first-tier minerals that Zhu Yan brought out, as the materials for refining the Xuanhuo Seal were among these minerals.

Lu Cheng'an has already maxed out his first-tier weapon crafting progress. Due to the limitations of his cultivation level, he cannot become a second-tier weapon crafter at this time, so the progress for becoming a second-tier weapon crafter on his panel will not start.

However, the first-tier refining progress at the maximum level is still of great help to Lu Cheng'an. It can greatly increase Lu Cheng'an's success rate in refining magical artifacts and also make the magical artifacts he refines of higher quality.

At the same time, Lu Cheng'an also receives certain bonuses when refining new types of magical artifacts.

The Xu family's weapon-refining heritage includes methods for refining Xuanhuo Seals ranging from low-grade to high-grade. Considering the strength of the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider, Lu Cheng'an did not start refining from the high-grade Xuanhuo Seal, but from the low-grade one.

The Xuanhuo Seal is also a fire-attribute magic weapon, and is equally suitable for cultivators of the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider clan to refine and use.

For Lu Cheng'an, refining a low-grade first-order magic weapon was a very simple matter, even for the Xuanhuo Seal, a low-grade first-order magic weapon that he had never refined before.

After spending two days, Lu Cheng'an successfully refined the first-grade low-rank Xuanhuo Seal.

For the next two weeks, apart from his daily cultivation, he spent the rest of his time refining magical artifacts.

During this period, he did not only refine the Xuanhuo Seal, but also tried to refine another new type of magic weapon, the Yunhuo Robe.

The Cloudfire Robe is a defensive magical artifact, and it is much more difficult to forge than the Mysterious Fire Seal.

Fortunately, Lu Cheng'an's crafting skills are quite advanced now, and the first thing he crafted was a low-grade first-tier Cloud Fire Robe; otherwise, he would very likely have failed.

"It's time to activate the spirits of the younger generation of the family again!" Upon seeing the message from the clan leader on the communication talisman, Lu Cheng'an immediately stood up from the lava riverbank.

He had previously awakened the spirit of a younger member of the family once, when he had just turned seventeen and had recently broken through to the fifth level of Qi Refining.

He is now almost twenty-one years old, and his cultivation is about to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Almost four years have passed since then. At that time, he selected five cultivators for the family. Now, all five of them, including Lu Chenglin, have become Qi Refining cultivators. The one with the best talent has now broken through to the second level of Qi Refining.

"It's been almost four years. I wonder how many immortal cultivation seeds we can select for the family this time?" Lu Cheng'an sighed softly and quickly left the underground lava river.

Lu Cheng'an still requires ordinary people of the appropriate age who have the bloodline of the Lu family to awaken their spiritual power. As for those ordinary people who do not have the bloodline of the Lu family, even if they have the talent to cultivate immortality, the Lu family will not allow them to embark on the path of cultivation.

This is because these mortals come from the bandit cultivators of Black Pine Mountain and the Xu family. They not only have no feelings for the Lu family, but also have a deep-seated grudge against them.

There are very few eligible mortals with the bloodline of the Lu family. Lu Cheng'an already has experience in awakening the spirit of a mortal in his family once. In addition, now that his cultivation has broken through to the eighth level of Qi Refining, it will be easier for him to do this again, and it will take less time.

Otherwise, Lu Wenxing wouldn't have entrusted this matter to Lu Cheng'an, as Lu Wenxing feared that family affairs would affect Lu Cheng'an's cultivation.

Lu Cheng'an soon returned to the Lu family.

Currently, only Lu Wenhua and Lu Wenmei remain as late-stage Qi Refining cultivators from the Lu family stationed at Chiyan Mountain. The other late-stage Qi Refining cultivators from the Lu family have been assigned to guard the locations of the Lu family's properties. It is precisely because the Lu family is currently so short-handed that Lu Wenxing is constantly using family affairs to interfere with Lu Cheng'an's cultivation.

After checking that there were no problems with the Spirit Awakening Disc, Lu Cheng'an went to talk to his uncle.

Lu Cheng'an and Lu Wenhua, uncle and nephew, had a deep relationship, but after Lu Cheng'an awakened his control panel, the time they spent communicating gradually decreased.

The reason for this is that Lu Cheng'an has devoted more of his time to cultivation.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Cheng'an had a conversation with his uncle and learned some information about the mortals who were of suitable age for spiritual awakening.

The next morning, Lu Cheng'an descended from Chiyan Mountain with the Spirit Awakening Disc. He first awakened the spirits of the eligible mortals at the foot of Chiyan Mountain.

The area at the foot of Chiyan Mountain is home to the largest number of mortals from the Lu family, but the number of mortals of the right age to awaken their spiritual powers is currently small, with only twelve in total.

Moreover, two of these twelve people are the grandson and granddaughter of Lu Wensheng, the eldest elder of the Lu family.

The two are Lu Lin and Lu Xiu, who are twins.

Lu Lin and Lu Xiu were both gifted from a young age. Their parents and grandfather were all Qi Refining cultivators, so they were no strangers to the path of cultivation.

The parents of Lu Lin and his sister also died in the previous calamity of the Lu family, and the two siblings lived with the Grand Elder in Chiyan Mountain.

It is because the day for the family's eligible mortals to awaken their spirits is approaching that they have come down from Chiyan Mountain in advance to wait with the eligible mortals below Chiyan Mountain for Lu Cheng'an to awaken their spirits.

Lu Cheng'an descended from Chiyan Mountain with the Qi Ling Disc. Before even entering the village where the mortals lived, he saw the mortal clansmen waiting there.

After a brief exchange with them, Lu Cheng'an didn't waste any time and soon met the mortal clansmen of the right age to awaken their spiritual powers at the foot of Chiyan Mountain.

Lu Cheng'an smiled and exchanged glances with Lu Lin and his sister. Then he took out the Spirit Awakening Disc, quickly cast a spell, and the Spirit Awakening Disc released rays of spiritual light, which soon enveloped the twelve mortal children.

Because of Lu Cheng'an's improved cultivation, he found it much easier to awaken the spiritual energy of his family's mortal realm this time.

After Lu Cheng'an activated the Spirit Awakening Disc to create a special field for nearly a quarter of an hour, he felt the Spirit Awakening Disc react.

His gaze swept over the twelve mortals, and he quickly identified the mortal who had triggered the reaction of the Spirit Awakening Disc.

"If the Grand Elder knew this news, he would probably be laughing in his sleep!"

Lu Cheng'an flicked his finger, bringing Lu Lin and Lu Xiu to his side, and then continued to manipulate the Spirit Awakening Disc to awaken the spirits of the remaining ten mortal clansmen.

The remaining ten mortals all came from mortal villages at the foot of Red Smoke Mountain. They were all mortal children who had followed the Lu family when they encountered trouble.

There aren't many ordinary people in this age group, and in a few more years, the number of ordinary members of the Lu family who are of the right age to awaken their spiritual powers will become increasingly smaller.

Because many young mortal infants died among the migrating tribes, but if they can survive this period, the number of mortal tribesmen of the Lu family who are of the right age to awaken their spirits will greatly increase.
