Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

Chapter 79 Enticement (Fifth update, please subscribe!)
If it weren't for the presence of those two late-stage Tier 1 Fire-kissed Crocodiles, she wouldn't have suffered such severe injuries last time.

After Zhu Yan finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Lu Cheng'an.

She could roughly guess that the Lu family's current situation wasn't particularly good, and they might even be severely lacking in cultivation resources; otherwise, they wouldn't have cooperated with her so easily.

"One-third of the treasures, excluding the second-tier spiritual veins!"

Lu Cheng'an's mind stirred slightly. He didn't know how many treasures the Fire Crocodile clan possessed, but since they were able to occupy a second-tier spiritual vein, they must have quite a few treasures.

Even if this group doesn't possess any treasures, the corpse of the second-tier fire-kissing crocodile is still extremely valuable.

Lu Cheng'an only thought for a moment before deciding to accept Zhu Yan's invitation.

But his final rationality allowed him to restrain himself.

The journey is fraught with unknown dangers, and he needs to consult with the elders of his clan.

"Please forgive me, senior. I need to consult with the elders of my clan before I can give you an answer!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile.

"My injuries haven't healed yet. You can seriously consider it. I'll come back to you after I've recovered."

Zhu Yan wasn't in a particular hurry. She currently had a second-tier low-grade attack magic weapon that the Lu family had purchased for her. Once she refined this magic weapon, her strength would increase significantly.

Even without Lu Cheng'an's help, she was confident that she could wipe out the Fire Crocodile Clan.

Her invitation to Lu Cheng'an was not only to deepen cooperation with the Lu family, but also to provide more security and minimize losses for their Fire Spider clan.

"Then I wish you a speedy recovery from your injuries, senior!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile.

Zhu Yan did not linger; her body was quickly submerged in the lava and disappeared in an instant.

After Zhu Yan left, Lu Cheng'an took out a communication talisman and sent the message of Zhu Yan's invitation to Lu Wenxing.

A moment later, Lu Wenxing replied to Lu Cheng'an. He did not make a decision for Lu Cheng'an, but simply told him to follow his heart and be careful in everything.

"Following my heart, I will accept Zhu Yan's invitation!"

After reading Lu Wenxing's message, Lu Cheng'an's brow gradually relaxed.

"I still have the clan's second-tier low-grade defensive magic artifact, the Mountain and Water Cloth, on me, and I also have a second-tier low-grade defensive talisman. With these two treasures, my safety is absolutely guaranteed!"

Since the volcano in the Burning Flame Mountains was about to erupt, the underground lava river has become extremely dangerous. The Lu family dared to let Lu Cheng'an continue to cultivate in the lava river because they had prepared enough protective items for him.

After considering the matter in his mind, Lu Cheng'an put it aside for the time being and continued to cultivate diligently on the banks of the lava river.

The Essence-Nourishing Pill had a very good healing effect. After Zhu Yan took the Essence-Nourishing Pill, she successfully recovered from all her injuries in six days.

After that, she spent another eight days refining the newly acquired magical artifact, the Black Crow Heavy Fire Seal.

At this time, all the injured cultivators in the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider Clan had recovered thanks to the healing pills sent by the Lu family.

Some of them even refined the magical artifacts sent by the Lu family, further enhancing their combat abilities.

After successfully refining the Black Crow Heavy Fire Seal, Zhu Yan felt boundless confidence. She believed that she would definitely be able to lead the cultivators of her clan to wipe out the Fire-kissed Crocodiles this time.

However, she did not act immediately. As she had agreed with Lu Cheng'an before, she went to find Lu Cheng'an after refining the Xuan Ya Heavy Fire Seal.

"Lu Cheng'an, have you thought it through? Give me a definite answer!" Zhu Yan didn't waste any words. After finding Lu Cheng'an, she directly pressed him for the result.

“I have already consulted the elders in the clan, and they agree that I should accept the elders’ invitation.”

Lu Cheng'an smiled at Zhu Yan and asked, "Senior, could you tell me the details about the Fire Crocodile group? What do I need to do after accepting your invitation?"

"The Fire-Snout Crocodile pack is about as strong as our Fire-Slaying Earth Spiders. The leader is a second-tier early-stage Fire-Snout Crocodile, which is slightly weaker than me, but..."

Zhu Yan did not hide the situation of the fire crocodile group, and she quickly explained the situation to Lu Cheng'an.

The strength of the Fire-Slaying Spider clan and the Fire-Kissing Crocodile group is not much different, but Zhu Yan's strength is stronger than that Fire-Kissing Crocodile in the early stage of the second tier.

However, there is a significant difference between a first-tier Fire-Slaying Earth Spider and a first-tier Fire-Kissing Crocodile. Previously, Zhu Yan led the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider clan to fight against the Fire-Kissing Crocodile group several times, but because she was distracted by the cultivators in her clan, she was unable to seize the second-tier spiritual vein occupied by the Fire-Kissing Crocodile group.

Zhu Yan was ready to act immediately. After introducing the situation of the fire crocodile group to Lu Cheng'an, she led him to their temporary habitat.

"Our Fire-Slaying Spider clan is temporarily residing here. The environment is rather poor, so please don't mind!" Zhu Yan said with a hint of helplessness.

They originally lived deep within the Burning Flame Mountains, where a second-tier spiritual vein existed.

However, as the Burning Flame Mountains became increasingly chaotic, their homeland was also occupied by other powerful clans, resulting in numerous deaths and injuries among their cultivators.

To reduce such casualties, Zhu Yan led the Fire-Slaying Earth Spiders away from the depths of the Burning Flame Mountains and came to this place.

The Fire-Slaying Earth Spider originally had no enmity with the Fire-Kissing Crocodile group. The enmity between them was instigated by the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider because they wanted to seize the second-tier spiritual vein occupied by the Fire-Kissing Crocodile group.

"Senior is too modest. The environment here is much better than where I cultivate!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile.

He wasn't lying; the Fire-Slaying Spider lived in a relatively narrow section of a lava river, where the riverbanks were quite wide.

Moreover, this riverbank is not a hard rock layer, but a very soft magma soil.

Many fire-attribute spiritual herbs naturally grow in the magma soil. There are many kinds of these fire-attribute spiritual herbs, but they are all still in the seedling stage.

Clearly, all the mature medicinal herbs had already been harvested by the Fire-Repelling Earth Spider.

Zhu Yan didn't know if Lu Cheng'an was telling the truth, but she was still very happy to hear his praise.

"Please wait here for a moment. Once I have gathered all the cultivators in the clan, we will set off for Green Crocodile Island!"

Green Crocodile Island is where the group of Fire Crocodiles live, and there are two second-order spiritual veins on the island.

Green Crocodile Island is located in a wide lava river. The island is not large, but it is quite unique.

The entire island is surrounded by hard lapis lazuli, but the top of the island has a very soft soil layer.

This environment has given rise to a large number of fire-attribute spiritual herbs. However, the Fire-kissed Crocodile is a demon beast, and even a second-tier Fire-kissed Crocodile is not very intelligent.

Apart from those medicinal herbs that are effective against fire-kissed crocodiles, many other medicinal herbs are growing wildly.

However, the environment on Green Crocodile Island is so good that many medicinal herbs still survive.
