When a disciple of an unknown sect rushed into the cave, Lu Ping was collecting the 1,000-year-old spiritual herb from the first spiritual herb garden he found. The collection of these spiritual herbs was actually the most time-consuming. Ever since Lu Ping entered Fei Ling Island, he had only encountered seven spiritual herb gardens along the two sides of the stream, and it took him two days to collect them. It could be seen how time-consuming it was to collect spiritual herbs.
There were many things to pay attention to when collecting spiritual herbs. Otherwise, the spiritual herb itself would be damaged, and its effectiveness would be greatly reduced. The higher the grade of the spiritual herb, the more so.
Therefore, when the cultivator came in, Lu Ping had just started to collect the second 1,000-year-old spiritual herb. This was because Lu Ping had casually destroyed a few passages on both sides of the cave.
When the cultivator saw that it was Lu Ping, he obviously hesitated for a moment because Lu Ping had shown his strength in front of everyone a few times, which was really frightening. However, this cultivator still could not resist the temptation of the 30-40 1,000-year-old spiritual herbs in the spiritual herb garden, so he slowly approached the spiritual herb garden with vigilance.
Lu Ping did not stop him and only focused on collecting the third spiritual herb. Finally, the cultivator relaxed and entered the spiritual herb garden to collect. After that, more and more cultivators entered the cave and joined in the fight for the spiritual herbs. At this moment, Lu Ping finally understood the situation at Ling Yao Mountain. In just a moment, the nearly 40 1,000-year-old spiritual herbs and nearly 1,000 500-year-old spiritual herbs in the two-acre spiritual herb garden were all snatched up.
Lu Ping had left long before the spiritual herbs were all collected. He only collected nine 1,000-year-old spiritual herbs and ignored the rest of the 500-year-old spiritual herbs. If he did not come out and wait for the spiritual herb garden to be finished, there would be another chaotic battle. With Lu Ping's strength, he would definitely be the target of everyone's attack.
Following Lu Ping were three Zhenling cultivators. The other true spirit disciples of Yujian School and Chong Ming School had no time to care about them.
At that moment, there were only four to six hours left before the closing of Flying Spirit Island. The cultivators would inevitably fall into a final frenzy and begin a brutal hunt for the resources in their hands. At that moment, only the cultivators of their own sect could be trusted. Thus, the most important thing to do was to gather the disciples of Zhenling.
Through the explanation of a senior disciple, Lu Ping learned that Wei Zi-Heng and Su Zipeng had each taken two or three disciples to the other two passages.
Without another word, Lu Ping led the three of them into a passageway.
This passage was where the cultivators of the cave abode usually concocted pills and crafted weapons. At this time, it was already a mess inside. Lu Ping looked into the cave entrance and saw that Wei Zi-Heng and two other cultivators were being besieged by Xuan Ling Sect's Zhang Weiqing and his group of seven. The situation was extremely precarious, and there were also disciples from other sects fighting with each other.
Zhang Weiqing sneered, "You Zhenling bastards, I'll kill the three of you today, and our Xuan Ling Sect will win before the closing of Flying Spirit Island."
Wei Zi-Heng didn't say anything. He just tried his best to defend against the attacks from the Xuan Ling Sect disciples. The other two disciples cooperated with him, but the three of them were already injured in many places.
The three disciples behind Lu Ping panicked. Just as they were about to call for reinforcements, Lu Ping raised his hand to stop them. He took out his Soaring Sword and launched a sneak attack from the back of the Xuan Ling Sect disciples.
The three disciples were puzzled. They were more than forty feet away from the Xuan Ling Sect disciples, far beyond the range of a Third Layer Blood Condensation Realm disciple's divine sense. How could Lu Ping launch an attack from such a distance?
In the blink of an eye, the Soaring Sword was only twenty feet away from the Xuan Ling Sect disciples. The Xuan Ling Sect disciples' divine sense immediately detected the Soaring Sword's sneak attack. They screamed and tried to defend themselves, but it was already too late. One of the two Xuan Ling Sect disciples was killed, and the other was heavily injured.
Zhang Weiqing turned around and saw Lu Ping and the other three disciples running towards him. He shouted viciously, "It's you again! Let's go! "With that, the remaining six disciples quickly ran to the side.
Wei Zi-Heng shouted, "It's not that easy!" A net-like mystic instrument flew out from his hand and caught the heavily injured Xuan Ling Sect disciple. The other two disciples' mystic instruments had already flown over. Another Xuan Ling Sect disciple was dead.
Wei Zi-Heng and Lu Ping didn't have time to exchange pleasantries. Since the matter was over, the seven of them hurried out of the cave and went to another tunnel to help Su Zi-Peng.
The third tunnel led to the cave abode's study room. This was where the cave abode's master spent his days studying techniques, crafting talismans, and researching array formations.
By the time Lu Ping and the rest arrived, the place was already ransacked. The bookshelves, tables, and chairs in the study room were all smashed to pieces. When they found Su Zi-Peng, he was leading four people in pursuit of a few disciples from a few other sects. The group rushed forward and smashed the four disciples to death with their mystic instruments, scaring the other cultivators in the cave away.
Su Zi-Peng took out a few jade slips from the dead cultivators and said happily, "Damn it, how dare they steal my, Zhenling's, jewels! They deserve to die!"
In this trip to the cave abode, none of the eleven people died. Only Wei Zi-Heng and the other two were seriously injured. Everyone was naturally excited. After leaving the cave abode, they didn't linger. They avoided the peak of Fei Ling Mountain and waited for Fei Ling Island to close and everyone was transported out.
Speaking of the situation in the three passageways, Wei Zi-Heng said, "The most important benefit in the cave I was in should have been obtained by Zhang Weiqing. He was the second to enter and killed a cultivator from the Water Mist Pavilion. He obtained a few bottles of good quality medicinal pills. It was said that they were stored in Jade Crystal bottles, so they should be medicinal pills for the Core Forging Realm. The spiritual herbs, spiritual materials, and magic tools inside were also taken by him. I only took a small part of it and even got into a conflict with him over a mid-grade pill furnace. If Junior Martial Brother Lu didn't come to help, I might have died there. "
Su Zi-Peng also said, "My cave was taken by the Haiyan Sect first, but I went in later and also took a lot of things. Among them was a set of inheritance jade slips about the Chain Formation. A few cultivators from other sects took a few. Yes, they were the unlucky guys we met on our way here. Now this set of inheritance is in our hands."
Lu Ping wanted to ask them if they had jade slips about alchemy and talisman making, but seeing that both of them were looking at him, obviously expecting his harvest, Lu Ping smiled and said, "It's nothing, just a Jade Essence Bottle."
Everyone exclaimed, "It's actually a Jade Essence Bottle?"
"Isn't this …"
Su Zi-Peng lowered his voice, but still couldn't hide the excitement on his face. He said, "It's really a Jade Essence Bottle? According to the legends, only Dharma Phase Ancestors would use the jade essence bottle to refine their pills? "
Lu Ping nodded and said, "It is indeed a Jade Essence Bottle."
Wei Zi-Heng also couldn't wait to ask, "Is it the abode of Dharma Phase Laozu?"
Lu Ping thought for a while and shook his head. He said, "It shouldn't be, but it should be a prominent Core Forging Stage cultivator from Fei Ling Sect."
Everyone obviously didn't believe that it would be the abode of Dharma Phase Laozu, but they quite agreed with Lu Ping's opinion.
At this time, there were only two hours left before Fei Ling Island closed. In order to obtain more resources, the powerful sects began to form gangs to rob the weaker cultivators. The smaller sects didn't show weakness either. When they encountered a powerful group, they would stay far away from it. When they encountered a lone cultivator, no matter which sect he was from, they would kill him without hesitation.
For a moment, Fei Ling Mountain was in chaos again, but this time, the battles seemed a lot more dull. Many battles started very suddenly and ended very quickly. Everyone raised their vigilance, lest the cultivators who heard the news would take advantage of them if they fought for a long time, so they all pursued a one-hit kill.
At this time, Zhenling's group of eleven people was extremely abrupt. They had the most people and were the most powerful, so no cultivators came to provoke them.
What should they do next?
Everyone looked at Wei Zi-Heng, Su Zi-Peng, and Lu Ping.
Wei Zi-Heng pondered for a while and said, "We still need to help Canghai, Yujian, and Chong Ming Sects. After all, we are in an alliance. If we ignore them at the last moment, it won't look good on our sect's Enlightened Masters."
Everyone agreed. At this time, Fei Ling Sect had gained a lot. Compared to Xuan Ling Sect, their chances of winning were not small. The most important thing now was to preserve their strength and survive at the last moment.
Everyone didn't split up. They searched around Fei Ling Mountain and united the cultivators from the other three sects. After a while, six or seven people gathered. The news spread, and another four or five people rushed over.
At this time, Lu Ping and the others found out that Zhang Weiqing and the others from Xuan Ling Sect were killing disciples from other sects on Fei Ling Mountain to gather resources. Obviously, they had realized that they were at a disadvantage in the competition with Zhenling. Now, all the cultivators on Fei Ling Mountain were hiding.
Wei Zi-Heng saw that there were already twenty-two people gathered. This should be a force that could do whatever they wanted on Fei Ling Mountain. He said, "Let's go and find Xuan Ling Sect. We can't let them mess around like this."
More than twenty people from the four sects walked towards the area where the battle was the most intense. Along the way, they found two or three disciples from the other three sects. Two of them had been hiding outside Fei Ling Mountain. It was only because they wanted to teleport out of Fei Ling Island at the last moment that cultivators had to be on Fei Ling Mountain. That was why they entered Fei Ling Mountain at the last moment. They didn't expect to run into so many cultivators going crazy at the last moment.
Along the way, they also killed a few cultivators who didn't know what to do. Suddenly, they saw a cultivator running towards Lu Ping's group in a panic from the back mountain. Three cultivators were chasing after him.
When they got closer, Lu Ping realized that the cultivator running towards them was Ai Shutao, whom he met in the Golden Sand Mine. The three cultivators chasing after him were also disciples from Xuan Ling, Fei Yu, and Ling Gu Sects.
Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road!
Lu Ping turned around and said, "Senior Brothers, the cultivator in front is a friend of mine. Please help me kill the Xuan Ling bastards behind us."
"That's how it should be!"
Several cultivators dashed out from both sides, cutting off the trio's escape route. Lu Ping took the lead and said, "Brother Ai Shutao, come this way." At the same time, the Soaring Wing Sword in his hand was already swinging towards the three cultivators behind him.
Ai Shutao's face lit up when he saw Lu Ping, but when he saw the people behind him, he hesitated. Still, he ran towards Lu Ping and whispered to Lu Ping, "Xuan Ling Sect, Hai Yan Sect, and Shui Yan Pavilion found a Core Forging Cave Abode."
