Lu Changsheng felt a burst of excitement.
Even the Spiritual Fires that drifted between heaven and earth could be rewarded by the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator.
Lu Changsheng obtained a seventeenth-grade Spiritual Fire, which also had other uses.
Lu Qinglian possessed a special magical artifact called the “Nirvana Flames Red Lotus”.
The Nirvana Flames Red Lotus could grow by devouring various kinds of Spiritual Fires.
Currently, the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus was a superior Holy Artifact with twenty-four lotus petals, far from its limit.
Lu Changsheng then summoned Lu Qinglian, instructed her to bring out the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, and first fed it with the seventeenth-grade Spiritual Fire “Void Black Flame”.
The Void Black Flame was densely covered in eerie black runes, resembling a black hole and exuding a terrifying swallowing force.
For even an Immortal Emperor, such a high-level Spiritual Fire posed a threat.
Feeling the aura of the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, the Void Black Flame seemed to be afraid and actually attempted to return to the black gourd.
However, it was too late.
The Nirvana Flames Red Lotus burst into a radiant red light, forcibly absorbing the struggling Void Black Flame!
In front of the superior Holy Artifact-grade Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, the seventeenth-grade Spiritual Fire had no power to fight back and could only become nourishment for the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus.
After devouring the Void Black Flame, the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus grew the twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth petals in succession.
The aura of the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus surged, and its quality reached the level of a lower-grade Emperor Soldier!
“Wow, this is great!”
Lu Qinglian excitedly cradled the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus in her arms.
She really liked this magical artifact, but previously the grade of the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus could not keep up with her cultivation, so she rarely used it.
Now that the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus had become a lower-grade Emperor Soldier, Lu Qinglian was able to use this magical artifact once again.
“Wait, there are still two types of Spiritual Fire.”
Lu Changsheng thought for a moment and decided to feed the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus with two top-grade Spiritual Fires, the Nether Sea Flame and the Black Dragon King Flame.
As neither of these Spiritual Fires were unique, and the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator could return them the first time, it could do so again; therefore, Lu Changsheng used them without hesitation.
The Nether Sea Flame was a dark blue flame but appeared like thick deep sea water. Although it was flame, it weighed tens of thousands of pounds.
Yet the Nether Sea Flame still couldn’t escape the devourment of the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus.
After absorbing the Nether Sea Flame, the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus grew the twenty-seventh petal, and the twenty-eighth petal only emerged a tiny bit.
Clearly, the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus after devouring the Nether Sea Flame was still a bit away from becoming a mid-grade Emperor Soldier.
Luckily, Lu Changsheng still had the eighteenth-grade Black Dragon King Flame.
The moment the bottle cork was opened, a terrifying dragon chant erupted, startling the Nine Heavens!
The Black Dragon King Flame was the innate divine flame of a Dragon King-level World-Ending Black Dragon, retaining the dragon’s breath of the World-Ending Black Dragon, and was extremely formidable.
At its peak, the World-Ending Black Dragon was a match for the progenitor Candle Dragon and the Ancient Thunder Dragon, both Dragon King-level supreme beings within the Dragon Clan.
The innate divine flame of the World-Ending Black Dragon was an eighteenth-grade Spiritual Fire, evidencing its immense power.
Sensing that it was about to be devoured by the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, the Black Dragon King Flame tried to resist, and the black flame transformed into a thousands-feet-long black dragon, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws!
The entire black dragon was composed of roaring black dragon flames, encircling Yuntai Peak, and let out an angry roar to the heavens.
A mere cultivator from the human race actually wanted to use it to nourish a magical artifact?
It was a part of the innate divine flame of the World-Ending Black Dragon, and yet the other party did not even intend to refine it personally, instead wanting to use it as mere nourishment for a magical artifact?
It could not accept this.
The menials of Yuntai Peak were all stunned.
Where did this black flame dragon come from?
Not just the menials of Yuntai Peak, even the Elders and Disciples of the other mountains within the Tai Hua Holy Land were disturbed.
What was happening at Yuntai Peak again?
It seemed that every few days, there would be commotion at Yuntai Peak.
People could only say they were no longer surprised.
“An eighteenth-grade Spiritual Fire is indeed extraordinary; it’s almost developed spiritual intelligence.”
“Ten Directions Immortal Emperor Formation, arise!”
Not long ago, Lu Changsheng had set up ten Ten Directions Immortal Emperor Daoist Banners around Yuntai Peak, just right to suppress the out-of-control Black Dragon King Flame.
Once the ten Daoist Banners were activated, ten different colored beams of light soared into the sky, the sea of clouds trembled, and the sight was incredibly dazzling.
Ten Immortal Emperor phantoms emerged, distributed in ten different positions. These Immortal Emperor phantoms held a variety of magical artifacts and suppressed the Black Dragon King Flame simultaneously.
“`
The Black Dragon King Flame struggled fiercely, and the Ten Directions Immortal Emperor Formation vibrated intensely, yet it found it difficult to completely subdue the Black Dragon King Flame.
The Ten Directions Immortal Emperor Formation was a great formation set up by treasures of middle Emperor Soldier grade, and its power also depended on the True Qi provided by Lu Changsheng.

As a third layer Immortal Emperor, Lu Changsheng found it somewhat challenging to suppress the Black Dragon King Flame.
However, all Lu Changsheng needed to do was suppress the Black Dragon King Flame slightly, and that would be enough.
Lu Qinglian spurred the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, striking at the Black Dragon King Flame.
The Black Dragon King Flame let out terrified shrieks, as its black flames were continuously swallowed by the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus.
The Nirvana Flames Red Lotus was like the center of a whirlpool, while the body of the Black Dragon King Flame turned into black currents.
As one diminished and the other grew, the Black Dragon King Flame was devoured inch by inch.
The Nirvana Flames Red Lotus grew the complete twenty-eighth petal, officially becoming a middle-grade Emperor Soldier.
Not only that, but the twenty-ninth petal and thirtieth petal also emerged, making a full thirty petals!
The current Nirvana Flames Red Lotus flowed with firelight, extremely majestic.
The Nirvana Flames Red Lotus became a top-grade Emperor Soldier level treasure, and even among the top-grade Emperor Soldiers, it was considered a first-class treasure.
“The Black Dragon King Flame truly lives up to its reputation as an Eighteenth Grade Spiritual Fire, turning the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus directly into a top-grade Emperor Soldier.”
Lu Changsheng now realized just how formidable an Eighteenth Grade Spiritual Fire could be.
The growth method for the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus was simple; as long as it continued to devour various Spiritual Fires, it could grow.
After completely devouring the Black Dragon King Flame, the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus returned to Lu Qinglian’s hands.
Lu Qinglian, a Quasi-Emperor, had directly received a top-grade Emperor Soldier due to Lu Changsheng’s indulgence.
How many geniuses from Holy Lands and Prestigious Families dreamed of such an occurrence?
It wasn’t that the great Holy Lands and Prestigious Families couldn’t produce top-grade Emperor Soldiers, but these powers needed to consider the interests of the entire Holy Land or family.
Top-grade Emperor Soldiers required time to accumulate, and to give one to a Quasi-Emperor, would it not be a waste if it were lost?
Besides, a Quasi-Emperor realm couldn’t possibly wield the full power of a top-grade Emperor Soldier.
“You should consider the uses of this treasure thoroughly.”
Lu Changsheng, just like in his childhood days, patted Lu Qinglian’s head, then went on to nurture his next disciple.
For his disciples to grow, Lu Changsheng truly exhausted much effort.
“Master.”
Dugu Aotian, who was cultivating in his own cave dwelling, saw Lu Changsheng’s arrival and hurriedly got to his feet.
Lu Changsheng took out three drops of Demon Marshal’s Blood, bestowing them all to Dugu Aotian.
He was curious to see what the system would reward for bestowing three drops of Demon Marshal’s Blood.
[Ding, you bestowed your disciple Dugu Aotian with “Demon Marshal’s Blood,” and the reward for the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator has failed.]
[Ding, you bestowed your disciple Dugu Aotian with “Demon Marshal’s Blood,” and the reward for the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator has failed.]
[Ding, you bestowed your disciple Dugu Aotian with “Demon Marshal’s Blood,” and the reward for the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator has failed.]
This…
Lu Changsheng felt frustrated.
All failures?
Lu Changsheng no longer had any Demon Marshal’s Blood to bestow upon Dugu Aotian.
This kind of treasure was quite important for Dugu Aotian, as it could stimulate the potential of the Demonic Ancestor Body.
The key point was, Lu Changsheng was curious about what treasures could be returned for bestowing Demon Marshal’s Blood.
Generally speaking, the more precious the treasure, the lower the chance of return, such as the Taiyin Goddess Talisman or the Ginseng Fruit Ancestral Tree.
By bestowing the Disciple Blood Stone, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator could return Demon Marshal’s Blood.
The Disciple Blood Stone was a stone contaminated with a drop of an Ancient Great Demon’s blood, found only in the Nine Nether Domain.
When Lu Changsheng was still an Earth Immortal, he had once entered the forbidden lands of the Nine Nether.
Now that Lu Changsheng was a third layer Immortal Emperor, he might personally travel to the forbidden lands of the Nine Nether in search of the Demon Blood Stone.
If he could find several hundred Demon Blood Stones, Lu Changsheng pondered that he might be able to draw out even higher-level treasures.
“The reason why the Nine Nether Domain is a forbidden land, aside from being infested with demons and wraiths, there is another crucial reason—the Nine Nether is the passage between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm.”
Only after joining the Tai Hua Holy Land and delving into the Scripture Pavilion did Lu Changsheng discover this secret.
In the heart of the Nine Nether, there is an abyss, a deep space trench that leads to the Demon Realm.
On this trip to the Nine Nether Domain, one must not easily approach the abyss; Lu Changsheng’s sole purpose was to search for the Demon Blood Stone.
