After Lu Ming's group entered, the Lu Family's core elders and the various lineages' leaders followed closely behind.
The various lineages' leaders secretly rejoiced that Lu Yunxiong had failed to kill Lu Ming. Otherwise, the Lu Family wouldn't be where it was today.
The stronger the Lu Family was, the more benefits they would reap.
Now, as a mere lineage's leader, they had more authority than some of the major city's city lords. Those city lords had to listen to them, which made them extremely happy. Naturally, they treated Lu Ming, Lu Yuntian, and the others with even more respect.
The group arrived at the Lu Family's courtyard. There were already dozens of banquet tables in the courtyard. Everyone invited Lu Ming, Lu Yuntian, and Li Ping to the highest table.
"Everyone, thank you for coming. This Lu hasn't been back for many years. Now, let me propose a toast to everyone!"
Lu Yuntian raised his wine cup and said loudly.
Back then, Lu Yuntian had been quite famous in many major cities. Many of his old friends were present as well.
"Brother Yuntian, it's been many years. I didn't expect to see you again!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
Lu Yuntian looked over and his eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, haha, I trust you've been well since we last met!"
Lu Ming also looked over and a smile appeared on his face.
The person who spoke just now was actually Zhou Linshan.
Lu Ming still remembered clearly that when he first joined the Mystic Essence Sword Sect, he met Zhou Linshan on his first mission. It was also from Zhou Linshan that he learned that Lu Yuntian was still alive.
"Uncle Zhou, please take a seat!"
Lu Ming also stood up and cupped his fists.
"Champion King, there's no need to be so polite. I don't dare, I don't dare!"
Zhou Linshan quickly waved his hand.
His heart was filled with complicated emotions as he sighed inwardly.
When he first met Lu Ming, Lu Ming was only a little guy in the Martial Master realm. In just a few years, Lu Ming had already become a King whose name shook the world.
That was a King! Just thinking of that word made his heart tremble.
"Brother Zhou, there's no need to be so polite. Come!"
Lu Yuntian waved his hand.
Back then, Lu Yuntian had entrusted the Heavenly Star Sword and two other important items to Zhou Linshan. This was enough to show their relationship.
Lu Yuntian was overjoyed to see his old friend again.
At this time, Zhou Linshan did not decline and walked towards Lu Ming and the others' seats.
"Haha, Brother Zhou, long time no see. You and I have both aged. Come, let's drink three big bowls!"
Lu Yuntian laughed heartily. Instead of using cups, he poured two bowls full of wine.
"Haha, good!"
Infected by Lu Yuntian's heroic spirit, Zhou Linshan also let loose. Laughing heartily, he downed three bowls of wine with Lu Yuntian.
The surrounding Castellans and aristocratic families' Patriarchs cast envious gazes at Zhou Linshan.
Zhou Linshan was actually on such good terms with the Lu Clan? What kind of honor was it to be able to sit at the same table as Lu Ming and Lu Yuntian?
Many people were even thinking about building a good relationship with Zhou Linshan in the future.
Immediately, Lu Ming also toasted Zhou Linshan.
After three rounds of wine, Lu Ming, Lu Yuntian, and Li Ping retreated.
The others continued to drink.
In the next few days, people came to the Lu Clan to congratulate them. Lu Ming did not meet any of them as he focused on cultivating.
As for Lu Yuntian, he met some of his acquaintances.
Time slowly passed, and Lu Ming's comprehension of concept grew deeper.
However, there was still a long way to go before he could condense concept runes for his wind and fire concept.
On the other hand, due to the existence of the lightning cauldron, his lightning concept improved at lightning speed, advancing by leaps and bounds every day.
As for the Three Ultimates of the Dragon God, they had completely stabilized at the third level.
However, in order to reach the fourth level, he needed to condense concept runes for all three concepts.
Soon, more than ten days passed.
At this time, the Lu Clan's people were preparing to depart for the Capital City.
The Lu Clan was an important guest this time.
Lu Ming, Li Ping, and Lu Yuntian arrived at the Capital City one step ahead of them.
On the second day in the Capital City, Lu Ming went to the Hall of General and headed towards the Earth Essence Cave.
During this time, the Hall of General had started operating again. Some of the students who did not die in battle had also returned to the Hall of General.
In the Blazing Sun Empire, the only thing that Lu Ming was curious about was the Earth Essence Cave.
The Earth Essence Cave had a total of thirteen levels. It was said that it was opened by the former King of the Royal Family. It was said that only Kings could enter the twelfth and thirteenth levels.
Moreover, there was another saying that the thirteenth level opened by the King of the Royal Family was not the limit. Because, because with that King's strength, he could only open up the thirteenth level. Beyond that, even the King could not do it.
Soon, Lu Ming arrived at the entrance of the Earth Essence Cave.
Champion … "
The few burly men guarding the door were shocked at the sight of Lu Ming. They stuttered for a long time and could not utter a complete sentence.
Lu Ming smiled and walked in without consulting anyone.
Only then did the guards realize what was going on.
"Nestle, who is that? He actually walked in just like that. He seems very arrogant. "
There were some other young men around. A young man with an arrogant face said indignantly.
"Are you f * cking blind? That is Lu Ming, the Champion King. Don't you know him? Are you a new student who just joined? "
Someone at the side said with disdain.
"What? That is Lu Ming? No, that is the Champion King? My idol, my idol. Why didn't you say so earlier? Oh my god, I missed my idol just like that. No, I will wait for him here. "
The arrogance on the face of the arrogant young man disappeared. It was replaced by admiration.
The news of Lu Ming's arrival at the Earth Essence Cave spread throughout the Hall of General. Countless people gathered around the Earth Essence Cave. Some of the young men who were in closed-door training also ended their training and rushed to the Earth Essence Cave when they heard the news.
Among them, the majority were girls.
Lu Ming had reached the Martial King Realm before the age of twenty. Not to mention the Blazing Sun Empire, he was unprecedented even in the Cloud Empire's thirty-six countries.
Young girls worshipped heroes and loved geniuses. Lu Ming was such a peerless genius. Naturally, there were many girls who adored and loved him.
Countless people gathered outside the Earth Essence Cave and waited.
Lu Ming naturally did not know how big of a commotion he had caused. He went all the way down and did not stop.
Soon, Lu Ming arrived at the ninth floor.
At this point, the Spiritual Qi of Fire was extremely dense and violent.
Ordinary people could not cultivate here at all. The violent Fire Spiritual Qi would burn their meridians and damage them.
However, to Lu Ming, the Fire Spiritual Qi was like a spring breeze. He did not feel anything.
He continued going down.
When he arrived at the tenth floor, he felt that the Fire Spiritual Qi on the tenth floor was several times richer and more violent than the ninth floor.
Lu Ming did not stop and continued going down.
Eleventh floor, twelfth floor.
When Lu Ming arrived at the twelfth floor, his expression changed slightly.
The Fire Spiritual Qi here had reached an exaggerated level.
Endless Fire Spiritual Qi was incomparably violent, wantonly ravaging everything.
The surrounding walls were completely crystallized and were extremely hard.
Lu Ming felt that even if a half-step king were to cultivate here, he would be killed by the fire spirit energy here.
