Chapter 237 Beast Tide
Now, Lu Chengping and Lu Jingkun have also set up a large number of second-level spiritual formations on the Suixing Peak and other spiritual peaks. These second-level spiritual formations are all sub-formations of the Jiuyao Xinglei Shenlian Great Formation.
Each sub-formation has extraordinary power. The power of these sub-formations can be condensed together, and the power of these sub-formations will double.
The second-level formations cannot show the power of the Jiuyao Xinglei Shenlian Great Formation. Only when it reaches the third level, the horror of this formation will slowly reveal itself.
However, the third-level formations need third-level spiritual veins to provide enough power for their operation. This is why Lu Chengan first asked Lu Chengping to set up third-level spirit gathering formations and spirit nurturing formations on Suixing Peak and other spiritual peaks.
They need to set up third-level spiritual veins on these spiritual peaks first.
After Lu Chengan returned to his cave with the method of refining the Tianyan Divine Plate, Lu Chengping took Lu Jingkun to set up spirit formations and cultivate third-level spiritual veins on Suixing Peak and other spiritual peaks.
Lu Jingkun is more talented than Lu Chengping, whether in cultivation or spiritual formation.
But Lu Chengping's cultivation is higher than Lu Jingkun, and his current ability is still stronger than Lu Jingkun's.
This time, Lu Jingkun followed Lu Chengping to set up the spiritual formation, and learned a lot from Lu Chengping, which was of great help to the improvement of his spiritual formation skills.
After Lu Jingkun followed Lu Chengping to set up the third-level spiritual formation, the task of taking care of the blood-essence rice fell entirely on Lu Jingtong.
This time, Lu Chengping came back from the Linggu Sect and saw the Lu family's cultivation of blood-essence rice.
The blood-essence rice transplanted by the Lu family grew much better than that of the Linggu Sect, but the method of cultivating blood-essence rice in the Linggu Sect also had some exquisite features.
Lu Chengping's heart was naturally on the side of the Lu family, so he told Lu Jingtong and Lu Jingkun all the methods of cultivating blood-essence rice developed by the Linggu Sect.
Lu Jingtong and Lu Jingkun studied it carefully and extracted useful points from it.
However, these methods have little effect on blood-essence rice. If you want to ensure that the grade of blood-essence rice does not drop, or to improve the grade of blood-essence rice, you still have to find fertilizers suitable for the growth of blood-essence rice.
Lu Jingtong has been studying this matter for a while, and has consulted a lot of spiritual plant masters' inheritance books.
After Lu Chengan provided him with ideas, and with his accumulation during this period, he finally got a feasible method.
The flesh and blood of the green-horned antelope is indeed useful for the growth of blood-essence rice.
However, to get the best effect, other auxiliary materials and various proportions are needed.
During this period, Lu Jingtong also asked Qinghong to take him to the Burning Flame Mountains to capture monsters. These monsters are not limited to any type, and Lu Jingtong asked Qinghong to capture some.
After that, he used the flesh and blood bones of these monsters to compare and match with those of the green-horned antelope, and for this purpose, he asked Qinghong to slaughter some more green-horned antelopes.
After Lu Jingtong determined that the green-horned antelope was useful for the growth of blood-essence rice, he told Lu Chengan about this.
After that, with the support of Lu Chengan, the Lu family began to vigorously cultivate the demon beasts such as the green-horned antelope.
Lu Chengan brought back two hundred green-horned antelopes from the ruins of the Wanling Sect, and these green-horned antelopes were in their prime.
In order to make these green-horned antelopes reproduce quickly, Lu Jingtong also went to find Lu Chengyao and asked him to help.
Lu Chengyao's cultivation also broke through to the foundation-building realm. He is also a second-level beastmaster, who is specifically responsible for the Lu family's cultivation of demon beasts.
There are many ways to breed demon beasts, which require the help of various secret techniques and elixirs.
The simplest one is to cultivate with elixirs, such as the mother-child elixir, aphrodisiac powder, etc.
There are not many alchemists in the Lu family, and all the elixirs needed by the Lu family are purchased from the Danding Sect.
After receiving Lu Jingkun's invitation, Lu Chengyao entered the Suixing Peak and began to try to cultivate those green-horned antelopes so that they could breed more cubs as soon as possible.
Now it has achieved initial results. Many ewes have become pregnant. If all of these ewes give birth, at least 200 green-horned antelopes can be added.
Of course, if the green-horned antelope cubs want to become demon beasts, the Lu family needs to spend a lot of resources to cultivate them.
Lu Jingtong thinks that the blood and flesh of the green-horned antelope are the main materials for cultivating blood-essence rice. Now the number of green-horned antelopes in the Lu family is not enough, so his current research is quite cautious and he dare not kill too many green-horned antelopes for research.
Lu Jingtong has a good talent in spiritual plants. In addition, he already has a research direction and has the inheritance of a high-level spiritual plant master as a foundation. As long as he is given enough time, he will definitely be able to research fertilizers suitable for cultivating blood-essence rice.
Lu Chengan did not have the energy to pay attention to these things. After he returned to the cave with the jade slip of the method of refining the Tianyan Divine Plate, he began to concentrate on studying the method of refining this magic weapon.
This is a magic weapon he has never touched before. If he can successfully refine the Tianyan Divine Plate, his refining skills will definitely be greatly improved.
Time passed slowly, and more than two months had passed in a flash.
After studying the method of refining the Tianyan Divine Plate for such a long time, Lu Chengan finally had the confidence to refine this magic weapon.
At this time, he sent a message to Lu Chengping, asking Lu Chengping to stop arranging the spirit array for the time being and refine the Tianyan Divine Plate with him.
In the past two months, Lu Chengping and Lu Jingkun have arranged a large number of spirit arrays. The spirit peaks such as Suixing Peak have all arranged third-level spirit gathering arrays and spirit nurturing arrays. The Lu family has begun to arrange third-level spirit veins on these spirit peaks.
However, Lu Chengping and Lu Jingkun mainly arranged the sub-arrays of the Nine Stars Thunder Refining God Array. Even after such a long time, they still have not completed the arrangement of all the sub-arrays.
During the period of arranging the array, Lu Chengping and his companions' understanding of the array method has improved a lot, and their skills in arranging the spiritual array are rapidly improving.
After receiving the news from Lu Chengan, Lu Chengping explained to Lu Jingkun, and then immediately rushed to Lu Chengan's cave.
"Brother Chengping, you first sacrifice and refine the main materials for refining the Tianyan Divine Plate, and then listen to my instructions later, we will start refining the Tianyan Divine Plate!" Lu Chengan said with a smile.
This is not the first time Lu Chengan has done such a thing. He has helped Shi Ningyu refine his life magic weapon, the Divine Jade Linglong Tower, and now he has enough experience.
After Lu Chengping took the materials from Lu Chengan, he immediately began to sacrifice and refine them.
These materials have been tempered by Lu Chengan, and their grades are all at the third level.
A large amount of first- and second-level materials needed to refine the Tianyan Divine Plate were given to Jin Yuan for tempering.
It took a long time for Jin Yuan to break through to the late stage of foundation building. He relied on the treasure Earth Marrow Mother Stone that Lu Chengan helped him find to practice, and now his cultivation is improving much faster than before.
After a few more years, his cultivation will be able to break through to the second-level perfection.
However, his bloodline talent is not high, and it is not easy to break through from the second-level perfection to the third level, unless he can get a treasure that helps him change his bloodline.
Blood Essence Rice does have this effect, but this effect is only applicable to babies that have not yet been conceived.
If Jin Yuan eats Blood Essence Rice, it will be of no use to him, only to his offspring.
As Jin Yuan's cultivation continues to improve, his speed of tempering first- and second-level materials is getting faster and faster, and the quality of the refined minerals is also improving.
After Lu Chengping spent three days refining the main materials for refining the Tianyan Divine Plate, Lu Chengan did not delay any more time and soon began to refine the Tianyan Divine Plate.
The Tianyan Divine Plate consists of two parts, one is the Tianyan Divine Plate, and the other is the Tianyan Orb suspended on the Tianyan Divine Plate.
Both parts are very difficult to refine.
Lu Chengan first refined the Tianyan Divine Plate. He first refined the embryo of the Tianyan Divine Plate, and there were no problems in the process.
Then he branded a large number of talismans on the embryo of the Tianyan Divine Plate, as well as the Tianyan Divine Transformation Heaven-trapping Array.
"Brother Chengping, follow my instructions and start branding the Tianyan Divine Transformation Heaven-trapping Array!"
After Lu Chengan branded a large number of talismans on the embryo of the Tianyan Divine Plate, he suddenly asked Lu Chengping to start branding the Tianyan Divine Transformation Heaven-trapping Array.
Lu Chengping has been paying attention to Lu Chengan's refining of the Tianyan Divine Plate. After hearing Lu Chengan's voice, he did not hesitate at all and immediately followed Lu Chengan's instructions to brand the Tianyan Divine Transformation Heaven-trapping Array.
The Tianyan Divine Transformation Heaven-trapping Array is very complicated for Lu Chengan, but it is very simple in Lu Chengping's eyes.
In addition to the fact that Lu Chengping was a third-level spiritual formation master, it was also related to the Tianyan Jue, the technique he practiced.
The Tianyan Shenbian Kuntian Array had a lot to do with the technique Lu Chengping practiced.
When Lu Chengping branded the Tianyan Shenbian Kuntian Array on the embryo, Lu Chengan stopped branding the talisman array.
He had been paying attention to the situation of the embryo of the Tianyan Shenpan, worrying about any problems.
Fortunately, Lu Chengping knew a lot about the Tianyan Shenbian Kuntian Array. After spending eight days, he successfully branded the five Tianyan Shenbian Kuntian Arrays.
Lu Chengan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the Tianyan Shenbian Kuntian Array was successfully branded, it meant that the refining of the Tianyan Shenpan was half successful.
Without any hesitation, he continued to brand the talisman array around the five Tianyan Shenbian Kuntian Arrays.
After more than half a month, Lu Chengan finally completed the branding of all the talisman arrays.
At this time, he took out the Tianyan Divine Plate from the refining furnace, took a ball of spring water from the Five Elements Spring beside him, and then wrapped the entire Tianyan Divine Plate in it.
Accompanied by a hissing sound, the Five Elements Spring water immediately released rolling white mist.
Stimulated by the spring water, the Tianyan Divine Plate also reacted violently, and the talisman array imprinted by Lu Chengan and the Tianyan Divine Transformation Confining Heaven Array arranged by Lu Chengping had significant problems.
After this violent reaction stopped, Lu Chengan quickly played a few spiritual spells with his hands, and then put the Tianyan Divine Plate back into the refining furnace for refining.
Next, he and Lu Chengping needed to repair the damaged talisman array, and after several temperings, the Tianyan Divine Plate was successfully refined.
The subsequent refining difficulty was much smaller, and there were no problems.
It took Lu Chengan another two months to completely refine the Tianyan Divine Plate.
If the time he spent on research is added, he spent nearly half a year to refine the Tianyan Divine Plate.
During the refining process, Lu Chengping also followed Lu Chengan's instructions and refined his own blood essence and soul essence. When the Tianyan Divine Plate was successfully refined, he immediately put it into his Dantian for warming.
As soon as Lu Chengan sent Lu Chengping out of his cave, he saw Lu Wenxing who was waiting anxiously outside his cave.
"Chengan, Chengping, the third-level monsters such as the Blue Flame Fire Lion in the Fenyan Mountains have launched a beast tide!" Lu Wenxing said with a worried look on his face.
"What is the specific situation now? In addition to the third-level monsters we know, are there any new third-level monsters in the Fenyan Mountains?" Lu Chengan asked quickly.
"Now there are only first- and second-level monsters invading, but the number of those first- and second-level monsters is too large, and they have not gathered into one group, but have dispersed into the human territory around the Fenyan Mountains. It is a very troublesome thing to clean them all up!"
"The third-level monsters in the Fenyan Mountains have not taken action yet, but Qinghong and Queyun reported that the third-level monsters in the Fenyan Mountains have not changed. There are still only third-level monsters such as the Qingyan Fire Lion!"
Lu Wenxing quickly told Lu Chengan and the others about the beast tide.
"Then mobilize the cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment realms in the territory to kill those first- and second-level monsters with all their strength. I will let Lingxuan and Chiliu assist from the side..."
Lu Chengan made arrangements quickly, and at the same time sent messages to the nearby Danding Sect and Tianyan Sect, asking them to organize cultivators to kill those first- and second-level monsters.
Lu Chengan was not prepared to let the Jindan realm cultivators intervene too much in this matter. There were many cultivators trained by the Lu family in these years.
However, these cultivators had not experienced any dangerous situations, which led to their lack of combat experience.
This time, the third-level monsters such as the Blue Flame Fire Lion launched a beast tide, and the monsters dispatched were all first- and second-level monsters, which just gave the Lu family's Qi Refining and Foundation Building realm cultivators an opportunity to exercise.
If the cultivators performed well in the beast tide, they could also get generous rewards and the family's focus on training in the future.
After Lu Chengan made the arrangement, Lu Wenxing's heart was immediately settled. He immediately followed Lu Chengan's instructions and began to organize the family's cultivators to deal with the attack of the beast tide.
It may be because the Lu family's Qi Refining and Foundation Building realm cultivators are aware of the current strength of the family. After they knew that the third-level monsters such as the Blue Flame Fire Lion launched a beast tide attack, they did not feel panic.
Moreover, after knowing that the family wanted to use this beast tide to test their abilities and set generous rewards, all the Lu family cultivators were eager to show themselves in the next battle.
The Lu family and the surrounding immortal cultivation forces had already been preparing for this incident. After the third-level monsters such as the Blue Flame Fire Lion launched a beast tide, the immortal cultivation forces headed by the Lu family immediately responded and began to encircle and suppress the monsters that entered the human territory.
