The four major fire cultivator families occupy the four directions of the Fire Bird Realm: southeast, northwest, and there is a circular area of 200,000 miles in the middle, which is left for the casual cultivators to settle and practice.
In this central area, there are still people who have established sects to seize the fire veins and fairy fire.
There are constant killings between different sects, and this kind of killing is what the four major families are very willing to see.
When there is killing, the immortals will fall, and when the immortals fall, the black and yellow energy will escape.
Therefore, the four major families are sitting back and enjoying their success, why not?
The town where Lu Chan and Qingmei lived was a corner of the central area.
Although this place belongs to the fairy world, it only has fairy energy. Not everyone is a fairy. There are also mortals and low-level cultivators here, including Jindan, Yuanying, Buxu, and Hedao.
In the early years, when the emperor ascended from the lower world, he often brought hundreds of thousands of slaves and family members with him. None of those slaves had ever practiced cultivation, and those family members also had some low-level monks.
Even children born between immortals and immortals only have a better foundation in cultivating immortals. They also have to advance step by step from low-level monks. If they don't work hard, they may become mortals.
A hundred miles away from this small town, there is a small fire vein. The residents in the town can breathe the fire spirit and practice basic fire heart skills. Only after reaching the Nascent Soul level can they capture the spiritual fire and energy in the fire vein. Immortal fire, and then swallow it into your belly, continue to practice, and continue to advance.
Lu Chan is considered a half-fire cultivator, having practiced Zhu Rong's Stone Tomb Illustration, swallowed fire talismans to practice fire techniques, and mastered some fire laws; Qingmei is a pure wood cultivator, so her skills are greatly suppressed.
Now that they are here, they must practice fire-based mind skills and make up for the missing fire-based laws. Otherwise, they will not be able to restore their skills, let alone improve their realm.
****
Modern world, Chang'an City.
After Huang Juan and Lu Chongyang got married in 3100, they gave birth to a son in 3102, named "Lu Dengtang". As of 3119, he was 17 years old.
Lu Dengtang is the 20th generation of the direct branch of the Lu family. At this time, the side branches had reached the 45th generation. So in terms of seniority, he has a very high seniority since he was born. Some gray-haired old guys even call him ancestor!
Relationships between people will become very strange once the fifth server is released and the elders die. Even if they are brothers and sisters of the same mother, it is difficult to get together again.
But the Lu family is different. The Lu family is a family of immortal cultivators, and all the ancestors above are still alive! Since the ancestor is alive, the descendants below will not be separated. The ancestor's skill was so great that he was like a big tree that could protect future generations from wind and rain.
Moreover, the Lu family has a wealth of three hundred billion, shining like a majestic golden mountain. How can those descendants be willing to leave?
Lu Dengtang began to polish his body since he was a child. He started reciting Confucian classics with the old man Lu Yideng at the age of seven. Three years later, he was sent to the foot of Yuxu Peak and followed several old men in rotation. After he was 14 years old, he went to the East China Sea and entered the military camp with his father. .
He stayed in the army for three years. When he turned 17, he returned to Chang'an and entered a key high school to review his lessons.
He joined the class at the beginning of his third year of high school, and his first test scores were almost at the bottom.
After all, I spent too much time on cultivation. I have almost forgotten the elementary and junior high school courses I took before, and I have never studied the high school courses systematically.
But Lu Dengtang was born with innate intelligence at the age of 6. He spent ten years studying runes and now has mastered 13,000 runes, which is more than many elders of the Lu family!
Moreover, his body was polished, with strong bones, well-proportioned muscles, and handsome appearance. Therefore, as soon as he entered middle school, although his grades were poor at first, many girls came to join him and competed to make up lessons for him.
Girls aged sixteen or seventeen are all in bloom, singing and dancing, with faces like peach blossoms and mouths like candied fruit.
Lu Dentang has followed his elders since he was a child and stayed in the army for two years. He has never seen such a posture!
Even though his mother had warned him not to be a prostitute outside, not to fall in love before the age of 20, and not to fall in love with ordinary women, he was still shaken in his heart and almost agreed.
In the end, the girl sitting in the front row couldn't bear the noise, so she turned around and gave him a blank look, which made him startled and he came to his senses.
When he calmed down, he realized that the real class beauty was sitting in front of him!
This class beauty's name is "Chu Yu". She has jade bones and ice muscles, is tall and graceful, has a cold personality and is unsmiling.
Every time Lu Dentang looked at her, his heart would become peaceful. It was a strange feeling, something strange to him.
Although he advanced to the innate level, he did not open his heavenly eye.
As a witch cultivator, you can open one of the six magical powers at will, which may be random. The magical power he opened belongs to the destiny power. He has just started and his skills are too shallow to see Chu Yu's past and present lives.
Most people's past life imprints are very dull. Unless they were a big shot in their previous lives, they may leave deep imprints.
Only deep marks could be seen by Lu Dengtang.
Chu Yu's grades were very good. In the previous exams, she ranked first every time, and her total score was much higher than the second place.
Lu Dentang thought to himself: "She may be gifted and have superior intelligence, or she may be a disciple of the Immortality Sect and have opened up her brain."
He did not deliberately investigate the origin of the other party because he was too young to go to the Immortality Gate to investigate alone. It would be easy for his parents and elders to know.
Lu Dengtang studied his homework carefully, watched the high school course from beginning to end twice, and quickly completed the knowledge points.
So in the second exam, his scores improved by leaps and bounds, and he suddenly jumped to second place.
One year has passed by in a hurry.
In the summer of 3120, Lu Dengtang was admitted to the "Wood Technology Major of Chang'an Forestry University" with excellent results.
This is an inconspicuous university with a low standard, so when the news came out, the classmates were surprised.
"Chang'an Forestry University? I've never heard of it."
"What kind of major is this?"
"Wood craftsmanship, is it carpentry?"
"Lu Dengtang's college entrance examination score is ten points higher than Chu Yu's. Why does he want to be a carpenter?"
"It is not just a carpenter. It is based on wood science and applies theories and methods in physics, chemistry, biology, mechanical engineering, thermal engineering and other fields. It is a comprehensive discipline that intersects multiple majors."
Discussions like this quickly died down. The classmates went their separate ways as soon as they graduated, and there were not many opportunities to meet each other.
In the blink of an eye, seven years later, Lu Dengtang received his PhD in "Wood Science and Technology" and then worked at the "Chang'an Wood Research Institute". He observed and studied in many departments of the institute and became familiar with all the steps of wood processing. After another five years, in the spring of 3110, he founded his own Spiritual Wood Artifact Research Institute and named it "Lu's Spiritual Wood" .
The research on spiritual wood artifacts is one of the key projects identified by the ancestor Lu Cheng. Therefore, it is easy for Lu Dentang to obtain billions of funds to purchase equipment and hire scientific researchers.
"Lu's Spiritual Wood" is not pure wood processing, but a combination of modern wood craftsmanship and witchcraft craftsmanship, following the old path of making porcelain made by the fourth-generation grandmother Yuan Qingyue.
Therefore, in addition to those who have mastered modern craftsmanship, Lu Dengtang also hired some people from the Lu family's side branches and posted recruitment information within the Changsheng Sect.
"We are looking for researchers who have mastered basic runes. There is no age limit and no time limit. They can be full-time or part-time. They are well-paid. In addition to high salaries, they will also provide the elixirs needed for practice."
Later, many people came to apply, most of them came for the elixir.
