#503 - Fire Lake Training

"We were lucky. The Green-Faced Ghost Emperor and I were the first to discover the Fire Dao Spirit when we entered the Five Elements Secret Realm. There were no other cultivators present at the time, and we successfully obtained the Fire Dao Spirit without any trouble." Lu Cheng'an explained with a smile.

Lu Chengan did not explain why the Fire Dao Spirit was attracted here on its own initiative. It was not because Lu Chengan did not trust Shi Ningyu, but because this matter was too surprising, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

"The Green-Faced Ghost Emperor encountered some troubles when he tried to snatch the Wood Dao Spirit, but fortunately he succeeded in the end. Now he has returned. I think with the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor's ability, once he refines the power of the Wood Dao Spirit, it shouldn't take long for him to break through to the sixth level!"

The highest level of cultivation among cultivators in the Netherworld is only the seventh level. If the Green-Faced Ghost King can break through to the sixth level, he will be one of the top cultivators in the Netherworld.

Lu Cheng'an and the Green-faced Ghost King have a very close relationship. The stronger the Green-faced Ghost King is, the better it is for Lu Cheng'an.

This is also the reason why Lu Chengan spared no effort to help the Green-faced Ghost King seize the Wood Dao Spirit.

"I will go to the Jinyan Sect later and use the Jinyan Sect's Fire Lake to concentrate on my cultivation. I hope to break through to the perfect state of transformation as soon as possible!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile.

This was the plan he had come up with after obtaining the Fire Dao Spirit.

The Fire Dao Spirit that he obtained was somewhat special, not only did the Fire Dao Spirit enter his Dao Domain, but also the Fire Dao Spirit's companion beast.

This meant that he could not forcibly refine the Fire Dao Spirit, and he wanted to rely on the power of the Fire Dao Spirit to quickly improve his cultivation, and it would be more suitable to do this in an environment like the Fire Dao Lake.

"Husband, just focus on your cultivation. I will take care of the clan's affairs for you!"

Shi Ningyu smiled slightly and said, "During this period of time, Jingkun and Brother Chengping have been setting up a magic purification array at the gate of Yuanshui Demon Sect. Now, two fifth-level top-grade magic purification arrays have been fully set up. They reported that in fifteen years at most, they will be able to purify all the demonic energy in the gate of Yuanshui Demon Sect!"

The demonic energy inside the mountain gate of the Yuanshui Demon Sect is too dense. Even if fifth-level spirit array masters such as Lu Jingkun rely on the power of the fifth-level magic purification array to purify the demonic energy there, it will still take a long time.

“Fifteen years is not too long. I will strive to break through to the perfection of the Spirit Transformation within fifteen years. Then I will rush back and work with the cultivators in my clan to move the family gate to the gate of the Yuanshui Demon Sect.” Lu Chengan said with a smile.

Lu Cheng'an did not stay in Jinding Mountain for too long. After talking to Shi Ningyu, he set out directly from Jinding Mountain and headed towards Jinyan Sect.

The Jinyan Sect is ruled by a cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm. Even though Lu Chengan is very powerful now, there is still a huge gap between him and the Jinyan Sect.

However, because Lu Chengan had previously demonstrated his talent and strength to the cultivators of the Golden Flame Sect at Huodao Lake, and because it was because of Lu Chengan that the demon cultivators of Qianyuan Prefecture were completely destroyed, Lu Chengan is now highly valued by the Golden Flame Sect.

The Jinyan Sect also hopes that Lu Chengan's cultivation can break through to the realm of refining emptiness. The stronger Lu Chengan's strength is, the more he can relieve the pressure on the Jinyan Sect.

Therefore, after Lu Cheng'an sent a message to the cultivators of Jinyan Sect saying that he wanted to enter Huodao Lake to practice in seclusion for a period of time, he quickly obtained the consent of Jinyan Sect.

Lizhou, where the Jinyan Sect is located, is not far from Mengyuanzhou. The speed at which Lu Chengan uses the space folding magic is faster than the speed of riding the teleportation spirit array. Therefore, after leaving Jinding Mountain, he did not choose to ride the teleportation spirit array, but directly traveled through the space folding magic.

Lu Cheng'an had already made arrangements with the cultivators of the Golden Flame Sect before setting off, so he did not rush to the Golden Flame Sect's mountain gate, but went directly to Huodao Lake.

"I haven't seen Fellow Daoist Lu for a long time. I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Lu's cultivation will not be far from breaking through to the perfect realm of Spirit Transformation!" Elder Xinyan said with a smile.

"Some time ago, I traveled to the Endless Void and obtained a spiritual object that could improve my cultivation. This allowed me to rapidly improve my cultivation in a short period of time."

Lu Chengan smiled slightly and said, "Thank you Elder Xinyan for your help, which allowed me to enter the Fire Dao Lake to practice."

The only person Lu Chengan had contact with in the Jinyan Sect was Elder Xinyan, a cultivator who had reached the perfect state of Spirit Transformation. He had asked Elder Xinyan for help so that he could enter the Fire Dao Lake to practice so smoothly.

"Brother Daoist Lu is too polite. You previously led the cultivators from the three states of Mengyuan to destroy the demon cultivators from Qianyuan State, and you also provided great help to my Jinyan Sect!"

"Besides, you also paid a fee to enter the Fire Lake for training this time. I didn't actually help you much!"

Elder Xinyan looked at Lu Chengan with a smile and said, "Daoyou Lu, the Xuanchen Realm may not be peaceful from now on. You should work hard to improve your cultivation!"

"May I ask Elder Xinyan what might happen in the Xuanchen Realm next?" Lu Chengan asked quickly.

"The information I know is not particularly clear, but I heard from the sect's Grand Elder that the demon cultivators in the Xuanchen Realm might make unusual moves in the future!"

Elder Xinyan frowned and said, "Daoyou Lu, you have an outstanding talent for cultivation and are strong enough. I hope that your cultivation can be further improved. This will not only greatly enhance your ability to protect yourself, but also provide more help to our Jinyan Sect."

The Jinyan Sect fully recognized Lu Chengan's strength. After all, Lu Chengan had previously destroyed the demon cultivators in Qianyuan Prefecture with his cultivation in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

If Lu Chengan's cultivation breaks through to the perfection of the Spirit Transformation Realm, then there may be no cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm who can be his opponent.

The demon sect that the Golden Flame Sect faces is the Blood River Demon Sect, which is more powerful than the Golden Flame Sect.

If the demon cultivators in the Xuanchen Realm really show any unusual movements in the future, the Jinyan Sect will also face a great threat.

Lu Cheng'an's strength is extremely powerful. If his cultivation can successfully break through to the Perfection of the Spirit Transformation Realm, then with his strength he can indeed provide help to the Golden Flame Sect.

"I still have matters to deal with in the sect, so I can't stay in Huodao Lake for too long. I have already made arrangements with the cultivators in the sect who are guarding Huodao Lake. Fellow Daoist Lu, please go directly into Huodao Lake to practice now!" Elder Xinyan said with a smile.

Elder Xinyan came to Huodao Lake mainly for Lu Chengan.

He was not lying now. He did have to deal with some sect affairs next and could not stay here for too long.

"Elder Xinyan is so thoughtful. I'm grateful to you for making a special trip for me!"

Lu Cheng'an looked at Elder Xinyan's leaving back, then turned and entered the Fire Lake.

Elder Xinyan had already made arrangements. After Lu Chengan entered the Fire Lake, he was taken by the cultivators arranged by Elder Xinyan to a fire spring with extremely strong fire power. This was the place of practice arranged by Elder Xinyan for Lu Chengan.

“Ever since I got the Fire Dao Spirit in the secret realm, I haven’t had the chance to carefully observe what’s so special about this Fire Dao Spirit. Now I finally have the time!”

Lu Cheng'an sat cross-legged next to the fire spring. He formed a seal in his hand and his mind quickly immersed in the realm of Tao.

In the Dao Realm, the Fire Dao Spirit is still entrenched on the fifth-grade top-grade Chiwu Spirit Tree. In fact, whether it is the Fire Dao Spirit or the Chiwu Spirit Tree, they all naturally carry the power of Fire.

The Fire Dao Spirit in his Dao Realm is not just a Fire Dao Spirit, it also has its own powerful companion beast.

If the Fire Dao Spirit resists, then its companion beast will surely launch a desperate attack.

With Lu Chengan's current strength, it is not a particularly difficult task to forcibly suppress the companion beast of the Fire Dao Spirit.

But Lu Chengan didn't want to do that, because he wanted to try whether he could make the Fire Dao Spirit's companion beast act according to its instructions.

If he could do this, he would have an extra powerful fighter in his hands.

Lu Cheng'an is not working towards this goal now. He is simply observing the power of fire contained in the fire spirit, hoping to quickly improve his understanding of fire.

Time does not exist in cultivation, and five years passed in the blink of an eye.

Huodao Lake, next to the fire spring where Lu Chengan practiced.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"I have been studying the Fire Dao Spirit for the past five years. It turned out to be the right decision for me not to forcibly refine the Fire Dao Spirit before. Now the Fire Dao Spirit has merged with my Dao Domain."

"This fire Dao spirit is in my Dao domain, constantly improving the power of my Dao domain, and it can also improve my perception of the power of the Fire Dao."

"The range of the Dao Domain has now reached 1,996 feet, and it only needs another 4 feet to reach 2,000 feet!"

The range of the Dao Domain of two thousand feet is a hurdle. Generally, only when a cultivator’s cultivation breaks through to the realm of refining emptiness can the cultivator’s Dao Domain cross this limit.

Of course, this only applies to ordinary cultivators. Cultivators with outstanding talents can often cross this boundary at the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Jiang Li, whom Lu Chengan had met before in the endless void, was in the perfect state of transformation of the spirit and had a Dao domain of more than 2,300 feet.

"This four-zhang range is not that large, but it will be extremely difficult to expand it again. It is very likely that only by raising my cultivation to the perfect state of transformation can I complete this breakthrough!"

Lu Cheng'an sighed lightly. In the past five years, he had relied on the power of the Fire Dao Spirit to expand his Dao domain at a relatively fast speed.

But now it seems to have reached a limit. Even with the power of the Fire Dao Spirit, it is now difficult for him to increase the scope of his own Dao domain.

"If I try harder, if I can expand the range of the Dao Domain to two thousand feet before my cultivation breaks through to the Perfect Spiritualization stage, then when my cultivation breaks through to the Perfect Spiritualization stage, my comprehension of the Dao of Fire and the range of the Dao Domain will definitely be even greater."

After Lu Cheng'an thought about it in his mind, he suppressed the thought of improving his cultivation and continued to comprehend the power of the Fire Dao Spirit.

Time flies, and five years have passed quickly.

"The range of the Dao Domain has finally successfully reached two thousand feet!"

Next to the fire spring, Lu Chengan's face showed an obvious look of joy. It took him five years to increase the range of the fire area by four meters.

However, after he felt the changes brought about after the scope of the Dao Domain reached two thousand feet, he felt that all the efforts of the previous five years were worth it.

“No wonder many cultivators can only break through the two thousand feet barrier after reaching the Dao domain of the Refining Void Realm. Because the two thousand feet Dao domain not only requires the cultivator to have a deep enough comprehension of the power of the Great Dao, but also requires the cultivator to have the power to control such a large area of ​​the Dao domain!”

Lu Cheng'an can now feel the powerful force contained in his own Dao domain, but now such a powerful Dao domain has brought him some burden.

If he were to mobilize the power of the Dao Realm to fight the enemy now, it would cause great exhaustion to him.

With his current cultivation level, he can't sustain fighting for too long.

Of course, if he pushed the power of the Dao realm to the extreme and fought with others, although he could not fight for too long, there would only be a very small number of cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Realm who could defeat him.

"The range of the Dao Realm has now reached two thousand feet. From now on, there is no need to continue to worry about increasing the power of the Dao Realm. I need to work hard to improve my cultivation to the perfection of the Spiritual Transformation!"

During these ten years, Lu Chengan's cultivation level did not improve much, but his comprehension of the Dao of Fire had deepened a lot, and even allowed the scope of his Dao domain to reach the level of two thousand feet.

This would be extremely helpful for him to break through to the perfect state of transformation of spirit.

It can be said that the barrier that has blocked Lu Chengan's cultivation from the late stage of the Spirit Transformation to the perfect stage of the Spirit Transformation has been completely broken. Lu Chengan only needs to practice step by step, and his cultivation will be able to break through to the perfect stage of the Spirit Transformation soon.

After Lu Cheng'an thought about it in his mind, he took out a pill from the storage ring, swallowed it, and began to work hard to improve his cultivation.

The elixir that Lu Cheng'an took was of the fifth-grade top grade, which was specially used to assist cultivators who had reached the perfect state of transformation of the spirit to improve their cultivation, and its medicinal properties were relatively strong.

This kind of elixir is very difficult to refine. Although Shi Ningyu's alchemy skills have now reached the fifth level, she is still unable to refine elixirs of this level.

The pills that Lu Chengan is taking now were obtained from the Demon Hunting List using his Demon Hunting Points.

The Fire Lake is not only filled with the power of fire, but also has extremely rich spiritual energy. Such an environment is very suitable for cultivators to practice.

Time does not exist in cultivation, and seven years passed in the blink of an eye.

Lu Cheng'an has been practicing in Huodao Lake for seventeen years, but his cultivation has not yet reached the level of Perfect Spirit Transformation, which is somewhat different from the time Lu Cheng'an originally estimated.

At the same time, Golden Flame Sect.

"Grand Elder, you were joking, right? You asked me to notify the monks of the Lu family to move out of the gate of the Yuanshui Demon Sect?" Elder Xinyan said in shock. (End of this chapter)
