Lu Ping appeared in the market place and walked to an inn. He threw out a Core Forging Early Stage Condensing Essence Pill and was led into a quiet room with a faint supply of Spiritual Qi.
Lu Ping swept around with his Divine Sense. He didn't find anything unusual, but Lu Ping still made a few hand signs. Threads of True Essence condensed in the air along with the movement of his fingers. Then, Lu Ping pushed his hands and the threads disappeared into the empty space around the room.
Lu Ping shook his hand and released Lu Xiaohai. He said, "I originally prepared a spirit item for you to advance to the Mid Stage Core Forging Stage. But this time, you got lucky with the Flying Yellow Essence Golden Stone!"
As soon as Lu Xiaohai came out, he held a pair of large copper hammers in his hands. A surging murderous aura pervaded the room. Apparently, he was practicing with the pair of copper hammers in the golden house.
Perhaps it was because he was born in the White Fronted Tiger Clan, but Lu Xiaohai was extremely bloodthirsty. Moreover, he seemed to be born to rush into battle, and he had a keen sense of life and death. With a pair of copper hammers in his hands, if he faced an enemy head-on, ordinary Mid Core Forging Stage cultivators would be beaten to a pulp.
In the previous battles, Lu Xiaohai had smashed the heads of countless Demonic Luos with his copper hammers, and his murderous aura had grown thicker and thicker. But Lu Ping noticed that the thicker Lu Xiaohai's murderous aura, the faster his cultivation base grew, and the stronger his foundation became. He already knew that this was the bloodline inheritance of the Suspended-Eyed White-Fronted Tiger Clan.
Lu Xiaohai giggled foolishly and reached out to grab the stone in Lu Ping's hand. But unexpectedly, Lu Ping put the stone away and said, "With your cultivation base, it'll be difficult for you to smelt a mid-grade Earth-rank spirit item on your first try. You still need to improve your cultivation base, so let me keep this stone for now!"
Lu Xiaohai was very depressed, but he didn't dare to disobey Lu Ping. He could only stand aside dejectedly. He saw that Lu Ping didn't put away the Flying Yellow Essence Golden Stone. Instead, he held it in his hand as if he was thinking about something.
A moment later, Lu Ping's five fingers suddenly shot out a ray of sword energy from each of the Fei Huang adamantine stone's fingers. The sword energy carefully ground against the surface of the adamantine stone, and after an inch, Lu Ping suddenly noticed something. Then, the sword energy was stopped by Lu Ping.
The Sword Qi had shape but not substance. It was originally unpredictable. It was extremely difficult to maintain it. It could not be successful unless one had extremely high control. However, at this time, the Sword Qi that burst out from Lu Ping's fingers was motionless, like a real flying sword.
In Lu Xiaohai's inexplicable eyes, he saw Lu Ping take out a transparent crystal box from his storage device and put it under the stone. Then the Sword Qi suddenly retracted. A thin golden line fell from the inch-deep sword mark and fell into the crystal box, gradually converging into a pool.
Lu Xiaohai's eyes widened and he said in surprise, "What is this?"
Lu Ping was slightly proud and said, "Have you heard of Metal Born Water?"
Lu Xiaohai didn't even think about it and shook his head. Lu Ping said helplessly, "This kind of liquid is a kind of Heaven and Earth Strange Thing. It is often produced in Heaven and Earth Spirit Items of the metal attribute, so it is also called 'Metal Born Water'!"
Lu Xiaohai curled his lips and said, "What's the use of it? Can it be eaten?"
Lu Ping couldn't wait to slap this guy's head. He said angrily, "You only know how to fight and eat. Can't your brain grow anything other than muscles?"
Lu Xiaohai was very innocent. Lu Ping said helplessly, "The inherited memory of your White Forehead Clan is the crystallization of dozens of generations of Tiger Clan's predecessors. If there is a chance, you should calm down and take a good look. Even if there is no explanation of 'Metal Born Water', at least there are a lot of experience of Tiger Clan's predecessors. It will be of great benefit to you."
Lu Xiaohai nodded, but Lu Ping looked at this guy's eyes. It was obviously perfunctory. But Lu Ping was too lazy to say more.
Lu Ping's Three Pure True Pupil had been in a state of stagnation after smelting six kinds of suitable water of the mysterious things. It was not that the Three Pure True Pupil had fallen into a bottleneck, but with the improvement of the Three Pure True Pupil, the grade of the water of the mysterious things needed was getting higher and higher, and it was also getting scarcer and scarcer. Lu Ping had not been able to find a suitable water of the mysterious things.
Of course, this Metal Born Water was naturally a kind of high grade mysterious things, and it was completely compatible with the Three Pure True Pupil. In order to find this kind of mysterious things, the cultivator must first have the ability to see through the metal attribute Heaven and Earth Spirit Items covering its surface.
With this bowl of Metal Born Water, Lu Ping's Three Pure True Pupil would undoubtedly be able to reach a higher level!
Lu Ping was overjoyed. He threw the Flying Yellow Adamantine Ore in his hand to Lu Xiaohai and said, "Forget it, you can keep this item for now. It's better than always thinking about it. But if you don't have full confidence, it's best not to smelt this spiritual item."
Lu Xiaohai happily took the adamantine stone, but when he turned around, he saw Lu Ping pouring a glass of water on the table over his head.
Under Lu Xiaohai's dumbfounded gaze, Lu Ping had completely changed his appearance. He wore a bracelet on his left wrist, and his aura suddenly changed into that of a monster's. He had transformed into the sword cultivator Lu Jiu who saved Chu Hai from the Emerald Sea Spirit Snake Clan in the Fallen Secret Realm.
Without disturbing the people in the inn, Lu Ping threw Lu Xiaohai back into the House of Gold. Then, he quietly left the inn and continued to walk towards the market.
This time, Lu Ping obviously did not have the same luck as before. Although he had found many rare items after walking around for a long time, most of them were extremely expensive, and Lu Ping did not have the chance to pick up the leftovers. In the end, Lu Ping only used some early Core Forging elixirs and high-grade spirit stones to buy as many three-thousand-year spirit herbs as possible as he could, as well as the rarer thousand-year spirit herbs.
Just as Lu Ping was about to return to Spirit-gathering Island after his excitement, Lu Ping's Divine Will moved. He seemed to have discovered a familiar aura flashing past the edge of the area that his Divine Will had covered earlier.
Lu Ping was slightly stunned, but in the end, he still decided to follow and find out what was going on.
An early Dharma adept and a mid Dharma adept walked towards a secluded alley one after another. When they arrived, the mid Dharma adept ordered a pot of spirit tea from the window of a teahouse at the entrance of the alley. Through the window, he could see the surroundings of the alley.
As for the early Dharma adept, he nodded slightly at the adept at the window of the teahouse, then turned and walked into the alley. A green smoke rose from the adept's body. The adept's figure seemed to be in a trance, making it seem as though he was right in front of them, but they could not see him clearly.
In a secret chamber, the pitch-black environment perfectly concealed Zhang Xiyi's somewhat absent-minded expression. At this moment, a sound suddenly came from outside the secret chamber. A sharp look flashed across Zhang Xiyi's eyes, but he quickly hid it and his expression quickly returned to normal.
A secret door in the secret chamber slowly opened, and a practitioner silently appeared in front of Zhang Xiyi.
A low and mocking voice came out of the man's mouth. "This is a good place to kill someone. I didn't expect the Cang Hai Sect to run a place like this in Phantom City. You must have put in a lot of effort, right?"
Zhang Xiyi seemed to have been seen through by this person, but his expression did not change. He said, "Kill someone? Since you dared to come here alone, you must have something up your sleeve. Even if I have the intention, I will not do it at this time! "
The man's laughter seemed to be stuck in his throat. He said, "Talking to a smart person is really refreshing! How is it, have you thought about that matter? "
Zhang Xiyi's cold voice came from the darkness. "Why should I believe you?"
The man seemed to have heard a joke, and his laughter was full of mockery. He said, "I just said that you are a smart person. Why do you ask such a stupid question? Why should I believe you? Isn't Bai Jishan and the Taixuan Sect enough? "
There was silence in the secret chamber. The oppressive atmosphere could completely suffocate an ordinary person. After a long time, Zhang Xiyi finally broke the silence and sighed. "Your strength is not comparable to my Cang Hai Sect. Since you have such great strength that you can make Bai Jishan break his promise and abandon our sect without saying a word, why hide your head and show your tail?"
There was a cold snort in the darkness. "You are not qualified!"
Zhang Xiyi seemed to have already known that this would be the result. Facing such contemptuous words, he did not show the slightest dissatisfaction. Instead, he said quietly, "Tell me, what do you want my sect to do?"
There was a satisfied laugh in the darkness. "Good thing!"
"Good thing?"
Zhang Xiyi's sneer carried a trace of helplessness.
"How about digging spirit stones?"
Lu Ping followed the familiar aura all the way, but suddenly, he felt a strange divine sense hovering around him.
Had he been discovered?
Immediately, Lu Ping realized that this divine sense was very subtle. If not for the fact that Lu Ping's own divine sense had already reached the level of a late Dharma adept, he would not have been able to discover this hidden divine sense. It was clear that the person who was controlling this divine sense was very confident in his own divine sense.
He probably had not been discovered, but was merely monitoring, monitoring any suspicious people who passed by.
Lu Ping turned and entered a wine shop by the side of the road. Similarly, he took a seat near the window. He called for a pot of spirit wine and slowly sipped it. His divine sense, however, was like a silent stream of water, spreading out in all directions. After a while, he discovered that the source of the divine sense that had surrounded him was in the tea shop at the intersection of the road ahead.
It really was him!
"No, absolutely not!"
Zhang Xiyi could no longer maintain his calm. In his agitation, even his voice was a lot louder. "Do you know how many Dharma adepts of the sects are stationed on Yuan Ling Island? Fifteen sects, close to twenty Dharma adepts, and hundreds of other disciples. You are sending us to our deaths! "
