Ten Thousand Years of Cultivation! Feeding the Karmic Fire Red Lotus! (4K)

Unbeknownst to them, ten thousand years had passed since Tang Ling’er arrived at the Taihua Sacred Ground.

With the protection of the Taihua Sacred Ground, Lu Changsheng and the others were able to cultivate in peace, since no one dared to attack the Taihua Sacred Ground.

With the Immortal Pill provided by Lu Changsheng, Zhao Wuyan successfully advanced from the Earth Immortal Realm to the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Not only Zhao Wuyan, but also Daoist Tuquan became Heavenly Immortal.

As the saying goes, "When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."

Lu Changsheng's seclusion lasted for a month.

When Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, his aura had become much stronger, and he had entered the Nine-Layer Golden Immortal.

Only now has Lu Changsheng caught up with World-Overturning King in terms of cultivation level, but Lu Changsheng's strength has far surpassed that of World-Overturning King.

"Upon cultivating the 'Azure Emperor Longevity Art' to the Seventh Layer and undergoing the eighth Body Tempering, only the final Body Tempering is needed to perfect the Seventh Layer, resulting in a physique comparable to Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact."

Lu Changsheng arranged dozens of heavenly materials and earthly treasures and refined them into a Body Tempering Medicinal Pool, where he underwent the ninth Body Tempering on the Seventh Layer.

In these ten thousand years, he has cultivated the "Azure Emperor Longevity Art" to the Seventh Layer and is about to cultivate it to the Eighth Layer.

Starting from the Eighth Layer, Body Tempering becomes much more complex.

The Eighth Layer requires the equivalent of 50 grade Seventeenth Grade Immortal Pill pills to Body Tempering each time.

The Ninth Layer requires the equivalent of 100 Seventeenth Grade Immortal Pill pills to Body Tempering each time.

The Tenth Layer requires the equivalent of 10 grade Eighteenth-Grade Immortal Pill pills to Body Tempering each time.

Without a substantial family fortune, it's truly impossible to cultivate the "Azure Emperor Longevity Art."

Lu Changsheng also needs to provide Cultivation Resources for several disciples and the Sects.

Fortunately, with the increase in the number of Golden Immortal disciples, the probability of the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator returning Seventeenth Grade treasures has increased significantly.

Rumble...

Yuntai Peak trembled, and all things grew, full of vitality.

Lu Changsheng mastered the Seventh Layer the "Azure Emperor Longevity Art," and the azure light illuminated the four directions of heaven and earth, even affecting the growth of all things on the mountain peaks.

"A bamboo plant has taken human form."

Shangguan Zhao'er discovered that some bamboo in the Bamboo Grove, influenced by the azure light, had transformed into human form and become bamboo demons at the Golden Core Realm.

There was also a crane that had lived on Yuntai Peak for many years and thus attained enlightenment, successfully transforming into human form.

These Demon Race who took human form on Yuntai Peak became Servants of Yuntai Peak.

They are already honored to have taken human form and cultivated in the Taihua Sacred Ground; they dare not aspire to become disciples of the Holy Son Candidate.

"The Top-Grade Emperor-Grade Body Tempering Method, 'Azure Emperor Longevity Art,' has thirteen levels, and I have mastered the Seventh Layer."

"The Middle-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method, 'Eternal Sacred Canon,' has Seventeenth Stage, and I've mastered the Sixth Layer. Although it's Middle-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method Cultivation Method, it involves the most difficult Time Dao, which can't be forcibly overcome with heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Therefore, my progress is not as good as 'Azure Emperor Longevity Art.' Fortunately, I have Lin Xuantong guiding my cultivation; otherwise, my progress would be even slower."

"The Emperor-Grade low-grade Swordsmanship, 'The Divine King Sword Scripture,' is divided into Nine Layers of sword intent. I have a deep understanding of Sword Dao, and with Lin Xuantong's guidance and Xia Ningxue's feedback on Sword Dao Comprehension, my progress in this Cultivation Method has been rapid. I have already comprehended the Eighth Layer of sword intent, and it won't be long before I comprehend the final layer."

"The 'Positive Yang Fire Essence Art' of the Taihua Sacred Ground is Emperor-Grade internal skill. It allows one to cultivate Positive Yang Fire Essence True Qi, which can suppress cold air, demonic Devil Cultivation Method, and evil thoughts. The power of this Cultivation Method is stacked when multiple people use it simultaneously. Although the 'Positive Yang Fire Essence Art' is not the strongest Cultivation Method of the Taihua Sacred Ground, it is undoubtedly its Taihua Sacred Ground's Secret Art. All past Saint, Saintess, Holy Son Candidates, Saintess Candidates, and Grand Supreme Elders have cultivated this Cultivation Method. If dozens of Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Emperors use the 'Positive Yang Fire Essence Art' simultaneously, its power is terrifying."

"The Positive Yang Fire Essence Art also has Nine Layers, corresponding to the number nine Yang. The difficulty increases exponentially with each level. I have cultivated to the Sixth Layer."

Lu Changsheng took stock of the students' mastery of each Cultivation Method technique.

He still needs to accumulate experience before he can break through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm. (33novel. com)

The gap between Immortal Emperor and Great Luo Golden Immortal is enormous. When Lu Changsheng encountered the Great Freedom Buddha, who was at the Buddha Realm, he was once Great Freedom Buddha.

"It's time to stock up at the Treasure Pavilion."

Lu Changsheng needed a lot of Sixteenth Grade and Seventeenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures to cultivate the Eighth Layer the "Azure Emperor Longevity Art," so he went to the Treasure Pavilion to exchange for a batch of low-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures and Medicinal Pills.

As Holy Son Candidate, Lu Changsheng could get a 50% discount when exchanging heavenly materials and earthly treasures, so he practically treated the Treasure Pavilion as his backyard, going there anytime to exchange for good things.

"Longevity Daoist, you've arrived? Our Treasure Pavilion recently acquired a batch of fine items, which we specially reserved for you."

When the Elder of the Treasure Pavilion saw Lu Changsheng arrive, he rubbed his hands together ingratiatingly.

Lu Changsheng provided the Treasure Pavilion with many high-level treasures, and he was also Personal Disciple of the Sacred Lord Lin Xuantong. Ingratiating oneself with Lu Changsheng might bring future benefits.

"What good stuff?"

Lu Changsheng knew that many Immortal Gate were working for the Taihua Sacred Ground, such as Sage-Proving Mountain and Wind Sword Sect. These Sects would offer various treasures every once in a while in order to obtain the protection of the Taihua Sacred Ground and Taihua Sacred Ground unique treasure, "Enlightenment Tea".

The Taihua Divine Domain is managed by the Taihua Sacred Ground, and most of the Cultivation Resources in the Taihua Divine Domain flow into the Taihua Sacred Ground.

"Does the Longevity Daoist remember that you once exchanged the Fourteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures 'Myriad Beast Spirit Flame' at the Treasure Pavilion? At that time, you also told us to keep an eye out for any wandering Spirit Fires in the world and to inform you immediately."

"Let me see."

Lu Changsheng did indeed give an account of it.

His disciple, Xiao Fan, possesses Fire Spirit Root, allowing him to absorb various Spirit Fire to strengthen his True Qi.

"The Worship Fire Sect, which is affiliated with us, found a large number of Spirit Fire gathered together in the magma of a Forbidden Grounds area. They offered some of the Spirit Fire as tribute in exchange for some treasures in our Treasure Pavilion."

The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion led Lu Changsheng to a private room.

Worship Fire Sect?

Lu Changsheng knew about this Sects.

This Sects consists entirely of cultivators who practice Mysterious Fire True Qi, and they search far and wide for Spirit Fire and Fire Attribute heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

The strength of the Worship Fire Sect is no less than that of the Sage-Proving Mountain.

Given their Sects's Secret Art, it's not surprising that they could find free-floating Spirit Fire in underground magma.

The Treasure Pavilion bought the Spirit Fire from the Worship Fire Sect at a low price and then sold it to Lu Changsheng at a high price. If it weren't for Lu Changsheng's 50% discount as Holy Son Candidate, he would have been ripped off again.

However, Lu Changsheng didn't mind; they each got what they wanted.

There were more than a dozen purple-gold gourds in the room, each containing a ball of Spirit Fire.

"Thirteenth Grade Spirit Fire, Bloodrock Poison Fire."

"Thirteenth Grade Spirit Fire, Qianlan Ice Flame."

"Fourteenth Grade Spirit Fire, the Demon Fox Cold Flame."

"Fourteenth Grade Spirit Fire, the Fallen Star Spirit Flame."

The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion introduced each of these Spirit Fire one by one.

"The last one is Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire, the Four Symbols Formless Flame, which is also the highest-grade Spirit Fire offered as tribute by the Worship Fire Sect. Once one absorbs the root of this Spirit Fire, even Great Luo Golden Immortal will experience a tremendous improvement. As for the price..."

"I want them all."

Lu Changsheng doesn't need to struggle; only children make choices. He wants it all.

"Good, that's great."

The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion accepted Lu Changsheng's token, deducted some contribution points, and gave Lu Changsheng fifteen purple-gold gourds.

Both were very happy with the deal.

You might make a small profit, but I'll never lose money.

Lu Changsheng returned to Yuntai Peak and summoned his seventh disciple, Xiao Fan, to impart Spirit Fire to him.

Over the course of ten thousand years, several of his disciples successively reached the Golden Immortal Realm.

Not only these Disciples, but even Tang Ling’er, because she was constantly hunted down by the Evil Extremity Sect and escaped death many times, gained more insights. After being able to cultivate in peace, her cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and she successfully became Golden Immortal.

Now that Xiao Fan has reached the Golden Immortal Realm, he can be rewarded with Fifteenth Grade Spirit Fire.

However, as was customary, Lu Changsheng began bestowing rewards starting with Thirteenth Grade Spirit Fire.

"This is Bloodrock Poison Fire. After consuming it, your True Qi will be imbued with Fire Poison."

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xiao Fan the Thirteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Bloodrock Poison Fire," and have received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: the Fourteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Earth-Core Poison Fire."]

"This is a higher-level Earth-Core Poison Fire, with the same effects as Bloodrock Poison Fire. You should refine it as well."

Lu Changsheng then bestowed the Spirit Fire that had just been returned upon Xiao Fan.

Thirteenth Grade and Fourteenth Grade Spirit Fire are not what Lu Changsheng wants.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xiao Fan the Fourteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Earth-Core Poison Fire," and have received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward: the Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Netherworld Jade Flame."]

That's right, this time it's Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire being returned.

Although it's still not perfect, we can't bestow Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire yet, so we have to stop here.

Xiao Fan is refining Bloodrock Poison Fire and Earth-Core Poison Fire. In this way, his Flame True Qi will contain Fire Poison, making him even more troublesome for his enemies.

"Yawn, Master, is there anything good to eat?"

Lu Qinglian had just woken up and walked over from her cave abode. Still half asleep, she noticed that her junior brother seemed to be refining something good, and her eyes lit up immediately.

"This is Spirit Fire that roams freely between heaven and earth; it is not something to be eaten."

Lu Changsheng rolled his eyes. Why did this Disciple want to eat everything?

"Oh, oh, oh."

Lu Qinglian took out a Peach of Immortality, sat on the futon, and treated the precious Peach of Immortality as a snack while watching Xiao Fan refine the Spirit Fire with curiosity.

Suddenly, Lu Qinglian felt a heat in her chest, Top-Grade Supreme Treasure Karmic Fire Red Lotus, emerged from her body, actually beginning to absorb the Earth-Core Poison Fire Xiao Fan had not yet had time to refine.

"Um?"

Lu Changsheng immediately used his True Qi to separate the Earth-Core Poison Fire and the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, to prevent the Karmic Fire Red Lotus from interfering with Xiao Fan's cultivation and causing Xiao Fan to Qi Deviation.

"Hey, you idiot, why don't you listen to me!"

Upon discovering that the Karmic Fire Red Lotus had acted without authorization, Lu Qinglian immediately enveloped it with her Phoenix Fire Lotus True Qi, suppressing the restless Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

The spirit of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus was scolded by its master and symbolically resisted for a moment, but soon returned to Lu Qinglian's palm dejectedly, like a pet dog.

This Law Treasure is something else.

Lu Changsheng saw it all.

The Merit Golden Lotus, the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, and the World-Destroying Black Lotus do not seem to be ordinary Law Treasures.

Like the Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, the Merit Golden Lotus is a merit-based Merit Law Treasure with a very high upper limit.

The World-Destroying Black Lotus can devour Fortune, Demon Qi, and Devil Qi.

The Karmic Fire Red Lotus's actions just now clearly indicated that it wanted to devour the Spirit Fire.

Could absorbing Spirit Fire allow the Karmic Fire Red Lotus to grow?

Lu Changsheng had a bold idea.

After a brief hesitation, he took out the Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire, "Netherworld Jade Flame".

Lu Changsheng opened the Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd, and a ball of emerald green Spirit Fire appeared. As this ball of Spirit Fire appeared, the temperature inside the cave abode suddenly rose, accompanied by a chilling shriek from the abyss, as if countless souls were struggling.

"You consumed this ball of Spirit Fire."

Lu Changsheng knew that the spirit of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus had developed basic consciousness, so he took the initiative to feed the Karmic Fire Red Lotus with Spirit Fire.

The Karmic Fire Red Lotus cautiously rubbed against Lu Qinglian's palm, as if seeking its master's permission before daring to devour the Netherworld Jade Flame.

After Lu Qinglian nodded, the Karmic Fire Red Lotus excitedly absorbed the Netherworld Jade Flame.

The endless Karmic Fire purified the countless resentments contained within the Netherworld Jade Flame, and the primordial fire root was absorbed by the Karmic Fire Red Lotus.

The Karmic Fire Red Lotus slowly grew two new petals, increasing its total number of petals from eighteen to twenty, and its quality changed from Top-Grade Supreme Treasure to Lower-Grade Sacred Artifact.

"That's amazing."

Lu Changsheng was secretly amazed to discover that the Karmic Fire Red Lotus could indeed grow.

If we keep feeding the Karmic Fire Red Lotus with Spirit Fire, wouldn't it be able to grow indefinitely?

Unfortunately, Spirit Fire is extremely rare.

Spirit Fire the Thirteenth Grade and Fourteenth Grades offer only minor improvements to Great Luo Golden Immortals and are not highly valued, but they are indeed rare.

If it weren't for eccentric Sects like the Worship Fire Sect searching for Spirit Fire, even the Taihua Sacred Ground wouldn't specifically collect this kind of Cultivation Resources.

The Spirit Fire travels between Heaven and Earth in search of other Spirit Fires; without Secret Art, this would take far too long.

After Xiao Fan refined the Bloodrock Poison Fire and the Earth-Core Poison Fire, Lu Changsheng Xiao Fan bestowed upon him two more Spirit Fires.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xiao Fan the Thirteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Qianlan Ice Flame," and have received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward mentoring: the Fifteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Sea-Heart Flame."]

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xiao Fan the Fourteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Demon Fox Cold Flame," and have received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward mentoring: the Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire "Demon Dragon Black Flame."]

Xiao Fan was already a first-level Golden Immortal. The Qianlan Ice Flame and the Demon Fox Cold Flame did not significantly improve him, but they did provide some boost. Xiao Fan accepted them all and refined them.

Lu Changsheng finally began to bestow Fifteenth Grade Spirit Fire as a reward.

Fifteenth Grade Spirit Fire can significantly enhance the abilities of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire can enhance the power of Quasi-Emperor.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xiao Fan Fifteenth Grade Spirit Fire, "Sea-Heart Flame," and have received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: Sixteenth Grade Spirit Fire, "Deep-Sea Ice Flame."]

Xiao Fan refined the Sea-Heart Flame and fused it with other Spirit Fire to make his True Qi even stronger.

Lu Changsheng fed the returned Demon Dragon Black Flame and Deep-Sea Ice Flame to the Karmic Fire Red Lotus as if feeding a pet, wanting to see if the Karmic Fire Red Lotus could grow indefinitely.

The Karmic Fire Red Lotus excitedly devoured the two powerful Spirit Fire.

Two more petals have grown out.

The Karmic Fire Red Lotus now has twenty-two lotus petals, and its quality has been upgraded to Middle-Grade Sacred Artifact.

Lu Changsheng's guess was correct; the Karmic Fire Red Lotus indeed had enormous growth potential.

However, the Karmic Fire Red Lotus is also a bottomless pit.

It devoured the Netherworld Jade Flame, transforming from Top-Grade Supreme Treasure into Lower-Grade Sacred Artifact. Only after devouring the Demon Dragon Black Flame and the Deep-Sea Ice Flame did it become Middle-Grade Sacred Artifact.

It seems necessary to instruct the Treasure Pavilion collect more Spirit Fire.

If the Karmic Fire Red Lotus were to devour all sorts of Spirit Fires from the Immortal Realm, Lu Changsheng couldn't say for sure how far this treasure could grow.

Some people died, but they weren't completely dead...
