Chapter 777: with translation of chapter title translation

777. Chapter 775 Cannot delay any longer

At the moment when he could no longer bear the pain, Lu Yuan fainted from excessive mental exhaustion.

Seeing this, Hong Lietian quickly employed an assisting immortal technique to help Lu Yuan stabilize the disturbance in his dantian.

After waiting a moment, Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

He felt as if a new energy was flowing within his body, as though connected to the entire universe.

Such power was immense and unparalleled.

"Finally succeeded!"

Hong Lietian said excitedly.

"Yes! This is my destined sword—the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword."

Lu Yuan grasped the sword, which shone with thunder and fire light, filled with joy.

He felt the resonance between the power emanating from the blade and his own heart.

"My destined sword has finally appeared!"

Lu Yuan thought excitedly.

Most members of Lei Huo Dan Ge were in closed-door cultivation, striving to enhance their strength.

At the same time, several late Nascent Soul experts from Bixiao Town, having heard of it, came from afar to Lei Huo Dan Ge to trade immortal treasures.

These experts, with their unique identities and strength, attracted the attention of many treasure enthusiasts.

Lu Yuan did not urgently need the pills they offered, but he was willing to display his outstanding skill in refining immortal treasures.

He believed that through this trade, Lei Huo Dan Ge would gain greater prestige and expand its business scope.

One expert named Zi Cui Ling showed great interest in the treasures Lu Yuan displayed, attempting to exchange them for the rare pills she possessed.

After some discussion, they finally reached an agreement.

Sixty rare pills would be exchanged for Lu Yuan's personally forged Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword, which Zi Cui Ling had long sought but could not obtain.

After the transaction was completed, Zi Cui Ling expressed her desire to visit Lu Yuan's workshop and learn his artifact-forging techniques.

However, Lu Yuan politely refused her request.

He knew well that as an immortal sect, Lei Huo Dan Ge's artifact-forging technique is one of its core secrets, not convenient to display outwardly.

This refusal seemed to cause some dissatisfaction and friction, and the atmosphere grew tense for a moment.

Under these circumstances, both sides remained calm and rational, and eventually reached one of their intentions.

Zi Cui Ling smiled while expressing that her previous remarks had been too radical and that she did not understand Lu Yuan's refusal to tour the workshop.

She affirmed Lei Huo Dan Ge's extraordinary talent in artifact crafting, and she did not insist on probing their cultivation methods.

She even said that, should the opportunity arise in the future, she would be willing to chat and learn together with Lu Yuan.

The mutual apologies and easing of tensions allowed the previously strained atmosphere to subside.

Zi Cui Ling also sensed that there might be internal differences within the relatively secretive Lei Huo Dan Ge, and thus she no longer insisted on opening its secrets.

Lu Yuan, meanwhile, felt a sense of resonance with this expert, and he looked forward to the possibility of more future cooperation and exchange.

Lu Yuan silently gazed upon the prosperous scenery of Bixiao Town, his heart already contemplating what actions to take next.

As the person in charge of Lei Huo Dan Ge, he knew he could no longer delay.

Zi Cui Ling provided the pills as agreed, a kind gesture, but the rare pills she offered were of little significance to Lu Yuan.

He did not need those pills to enhance his own strength, but he also understood that Zi Cui Ling did this hoping to establish more cooperation opportunities with him.

At the same time, Lu Yuan also had to face the matter of Hong Lietian having suffered a minor injury.

While assisting him in refining the treasure, he was accidentally hurt by the flames.

Hong Lietian is one of Lu Yuan's closest friends, which makes him feel extremely guilty and heartbroken.

After briefly settling Hong Lietian, Lu Yuan turned his attention to other important matters.

Recently, signs of an invasion by foreign species have begun to appear around Lei Huo Dan Ge.

These foreign species are numerous and have been gradually approaching Lei Huo Dan Ge.

If not dealt with, the consequences will be very severe.

Lu Yuan unhesitatingly ordered the disciples to organize resistance.

He personally directed, employing various immortal techniques with ease.

Although the foreign species were numerous, Lu Yuan successfully held his position relying on his newly refined treasure and his Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation.

During the battle, Lu Yuan discovered that his disciples' combat strength was still insufficient.

This made him deeply worried, realizing he must improve their combat ability to better protect Lei Huo Dan Ge.

Thus, aside from the battle, Lu Yuan used his Five Elements Escape Technique to guide each disciple and provided them with the immortal techniques he had researched.

Hong Lietian's figure shone like a meteor in the mysterious valley.

His agile body technique and precise swordsmanship made him appear like an unstoppable sword qi.

He unhesitatingly deployed the great power bestowed upon him by the pills provided by Su Liyan, making him extraordinarily valiant in this fierce battle.

Alongside Hong Lietian appearing on the battlefield were Lu Yuan and other disciples of Lei Huo Dan Ge.

They stood tightly united, defending the stronghold of Lei Huo Dan Ge.

Lu Yuan stood at the forefront, leading everyone to resist the invasion of the foreign species.

Seeing Hong Lietian's valiant performance, Lu Yuan felt both relieved and worried.

His relief came from Hong Lietian's displayed strength satisfying him greatly, indicating that his guidance and training of Hong Lietian had begun to take effect.

But his worry also arose because Hong Lietian was overly impulsive at the moment, placing himself in greater danger during the battle.

"Hong Lietian! Be careful!"

Lu Yuan hurriedly shouted a reminder.

Hong Lietian was startled by Lu Yuan's shout, he turned his head to look at Lu Yuan, and a hint of apology showed in his eyes.

He knew he had just been a bit impulsive, but facing this group of crazy aberrant creatures, he could not control his emotions.

"Thank you for your concern! I'll be careful!"

Hong Lietian replied, and immediately restrained his impulsive assault, beginning to adopt a more stable tactic.

He used Necromancy to protect his fellow disciples, and with his unique ability quickly crafted several low-grade Fobao named "Ghost Sword".

These Fobao not only helped relieve pressure on his fellow disciples, but also strengthened Lei Huo Dan Ge's defense as a stronghold.

But just as the battle reached white-hot intensity, a sudden change made the situation even more chaotic.

A reinforcement from the Black Flame Sect suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

They brought immensely powerful flame power, instantly repelling several aberrant creatures.

Lu Yuan and Hong Lietian both felt somewhat surprised, because they had not expected the Black Flame Sect to send reinforcements.

However, faced with this surprise, they did not stop.

On the contrary, they actively cooperated with the Black Flame Sect's experts to jointly deal with those crazy aberrant creatures.

The situation on the battlefield became even more bewildering. (End of chapter)
