"F * ck, old fart, this has nothing to do with you. Move aside."
Lu Cheng's expression was very black. He didn't want these few outstanding disciples to be snatched away.
"Aiya, Old Lu, you're treating me like an outsider. Who doesn't know that we're sworn brothers? Your words really hurt my heart." The yellow-clothed old man didn't care about Lu Cheng's attitude at all. He stared at Jiang Yaru and the others and his eyes immediately lit up.
"Not bad, not bad. As expected, they are good seedlings. They actually have the luck to bathe in dragon blood and increase their aptitude. This is very rare. Seems like the quality of the dragon blood is also very high. One look and I know they are fated with me. "
His eyes shone brightly. Clearly, he also instantly checked the aptitude of Jiang Yaru and the others. He also cherished talent.
"Fate my ass. Get out of here for this old man."
Lu Cheng gritted his teeth. "These are the disciples I just accepted. You don't have a share. Don't be a hindrance here." He had the urge to chase this shameless old man out.
Wanting to snatch away his genius disciples the moment he entered? Wasn't this just looking for trouble?!
"Old Lu, it's better to have everyone happy than to be happy alone. There's no future if you eat alone. Also, you're just one person. Can you teach so many disciples?" The yellow-clothed old man said, "Why don't you share some of the pressure with me?"
"Scram, I like to eat alone. Not to mention a few disciples, even teaching a few hundred is easy." Lu Cheng gritted his teeth and glared at the yellow-clothed old man.
Sou sou sou!!!
Just as he finished speaking, many old men with powerful auras flew in. There were both men and women. They were all at least in the Transcendence Realm. They were all Heaven and Earth Sect's elders.
"Oh, Old Liu, you just said that a few genius disciples suddenly appeared at Old Lu's place. Is that true?"
"Eh? They indeed have good aptitude and are full of spirituality. They even bathed in dragon blood and have a trace of dragon nature in their bodies. They even have a trace of hope to become a sage. "
"Thank you, Old Lu. What a coincidence. I just happen to be lacking a few outstanding female disciples. Truly, it takes no effort to search for them."
A group of old men and women barged in, completely treating this courtyard as their own home.
"Liu Dong!"
Lu Cheng was infuriated as he glared at the yellow-clothed old man. Without a doubt, this group of elders was called over by this bastard in order to put pressure on him.
The yellow-robed old man, Liu Dong, was immensely proud of himself. If there weren't other elders to share the pressure, he wouldn't be able to stop Lu Cheng. Now that the matter had blown up, he would at least be able to get a genius disciple.
Jiang Yaru and the rest stood to the side, not daring to even breathe loudly. They could only obediently obey.
Xia Ping was very satisfied. It seemed that Jiang Yaru and the others' aptitude was quite good. If so many elders wanted to take them as disciples, they would probably have no worries in the Qiankun Faction in the future.
Although Feng Hetang's strength and aptitude were a little lacking, Xia Ping had given him a few bottles of dragon blood on the flying ship, improving his aptitude. Even if he couldn't be considered a peerless genius, he could still enter the ranks of geniuses.
At the very least, he wouldn't have to worry about anything if he joined the Heaven and Earth Faction.
…
An hour later, Xia Ping returned to Flameyellow Peak. Jiang Yaru and the others had already been selected by a few elders to become inner disciples. Even Feng Hetang had caught the eye of an elder.
Hence, there was no need for him to stay here. He returned to Flameyellow Peak. As for the following matters, Jiang Yaru and the others would handle them themselves. There was no need for him to point fingers at them.
Another day passed.
Xia Ping stayed in Flameyellow Peak and cultivated in peace. At noon, he ended his cultivation and immediately discovered that there were people looking for him.
It wasn't just one person, but three or four. They were the number one ranked new student, Lu Wenhou, number five Li Hu, number ten Ba Tu, and the 18th prince of the Loki Kingdom, Ku Er.
They came together to discuss some matters with Xia Ping.
"Mhm?!"
Xia Ping's brows twitched. He could sense that Lu Wenhou and the others' strength had undergone a huge change compared to before. They had actually advanced to the initial phase of the Treasure-Refining Realm. Although it hadn't been long since they broke through, they could be considered to have stepped into the Treasure-Refining Realm.
Clearly, he wasn't the only one working hard during this period of time. After Lu Wenhou and the others lost to him, they worked even harder. In addition to the resources of the Heaven and Earth Sect and the families behind them, their cultivation increased by leaps and bounds. They quickly broke through to the Treasure-Refining Realm.
Of course, when they joined the Heaven and Earth Sect, they were already at the peak of the Fulfillment Realm. All of them had astonishing talent. After a year and a half, it wouldn't be difficult for them to advance to the Treasure-Refining Realm.
"Brother Xia, although I've heard that you easily defeated Bian Haifan of the Soaring Cloud Sect, I didn't expect you to advance to the middle phase of the Treasure-Refining Realm. Your progress is really too fast."
Ku Er was amazed. He thought that he had cultivated hard enough, and he had the support of the Loki Kingdom and countless spiritual medicines. He didn't expect that he still couldn't compare to Xia Ping's cultivation speed.
Although he was improving at a godly speed now, the more he cultivated, the slower his cultivation speed would become.
Lu Wenhou and the others were also very shocked. However, when they thought of the battle with Xia Ping before, they also knew that this kid was simply a monster. The shock in their hearts also decreased a lot.
"Alright, there's no need to flatter me. Since you all came together, you must have something important to discuss with me. What exactly is it?" Xia Ping went straight to the point, asking directly.
Ku Er smiled faintly and said, "Indeed, it is Brother Xia. You are really straightforward. In that case, I'll get straight to the point. I wonder if Brother Xia has heard of the Fiendish Demon Battlefield?"
"Fiendish Demon Battlefield?"
Xia Ping blinked, indicating that he did not know much about it.
"It looks like Brother Xia is not very familiar with it. However, it doesn't matter. I can explain in detail."
Ku Er said sullenly, "The so-called Fiendish Demons are the common enemy of all the races in the universe. They are born in the deep abyss of the universe and are formed from dark energy. They are an extremely strong lifeform.
"They are naturally ferocious and feed on all the races in the universe. They have long lifespans and practically no bottlenecks in their cultivation. As long as the Fiendish Demons can consume enough lifeforms, they can grow infinitely stronger.
"In the Ancient Era, these Fiendish Demons came out of the deep abyss of the universe, causing a boundless massacre. That was the dark epoch of the entire universe. Countless lifeforms died. Even the Sages fell.
"Fortunately, our predecessors did not fear death. They defeated the Fiendish Demons and sealed the deep abyss of the universe, chasing the Fiendish Demons back to their home. Otherwise, the entire universe would have turned dead. The Fiendish Demons would have killed all the lifeforms of all the races in the universe."
Xia Ping asked carefully. The so-called deep abyss of the universe was actually called the dark universe. It was another special space in the universe, the reverse side of the current universe.
The dark universe gathered boundless Demonic Qi, resentment, evil Qi, ferocious Qi, Fiendish Qi, Yin Qi, and many other negative energies. These negative energies were boundless, and the Fiendish Demons were the strong lifeforms born from these negative energies.
Originally, the dark universe and the normal universe had nothing to do with each other, just like parallel planes.
However, in the Ancient Era, the Sages fought without any reservations. In the end, spatial tears appeared everywhere in the universe. Some of the tears healed quickly, but some were permanent.
In the end, these tears connected to the deep abyss of the universe. Those Fiendish Demons charged out of the deep abyss and swept through the entire universe, causing a boundless massacre. Even countless Sages fell.
