Before the four of them left, Lu Ping waved his hand and brought the heavily injured and unconscious Hong Ye Laozu into the Golden House. Then, he transmitted a message to Samling to guard him.
Even though Hong Ye Laozu was a Dharma cultivator, he was still an alchemist who could even plot against his own sect's disciple. With Samling's current cultivation, not to mention that he was heavily injured, even if he fully recovered, he might not be a match for Samling.
When Tian Xue Laozu saw how Lu Ping was acting, she couldn't help but grumble, "What's the point of bringing him along? This fellow is a diehard member of the Northern Alliance. When the time comes, it's fine if he doesn't submit to our sect. But if everyone knows about it, our sect won't be able to bear the consequences."
Lu Ping replied, "Grand Uncle might not know this, but when I participated in the Northern Alliance's Elixir Gathering back then, it could be said that I received this person's grace. Furthermore, this person is the chief alchemist of the Northern Alliance. There's no harm in saving him."
As he spoke, Lu Ping took Immortal Qin's storage artifact from the ground and used his divine sense to scan the artifact. After that, he took out a high-grade alchemy furnace and said, "Not bad!"
Tian Xue Laozu recalled that the old man was an alchemist grandmaster. Looking at the high-grade alchemy furnace in Lu Ping's hand, she said, "Since that's the case, bring him away first. If he doesn't submit, we can only kill him. Leaving him alive will bring disaster to the sect sooner or later!"
Gui Ye Laozu had perished in the Northern Alliance's most important inheritance secret land, Qianyuan Cave. He had also perished in the explosion of his Second Tribulation Spiritual Treasure. In the end, when he tried to destroy the giant spiritual vein on Qianyuan Island, he was finally surrounded and killed by the great cultivators of the various sects.
However, even so, it was enough for all the sects to fly into a rage.
This time, the various sects had come to divide up the Northern Alliance. From their point of view, everything in the Northern Alliance no longer belonged to the Northern Alliance. Instead, it was the private property of the various sects. The destruction of the Qian Yuan Cave, the explosion of the Second Tribulation Spirit Treasure, the self-destruction of Gui Ye Laozu did not damage the giant spirit vein on Qian Yuan Island, but it had caused the spirit vein to leak. In addition, Gui Ye Laozu had suffered heavy injuries and fallen cultivators during his self-destruction. This greatly reduced the benefits that the various sects had imagined.
In their eyes, Gui Ye Laozu's actions were akin to cutting their flesh!
Therefore, when they suddenly discovered that outside of their tacit agreement, there was actually a group of people who had actually evaded their control and snatched a treasure from Qian Yuan Island, these people were furious!
There was someone who wanted to be the oriole behind the various sects of the human and demon races. What guts he had!
More and more cultivators headed towards the Poison Fog Swamp. Fortunately, The Friar had been heavily injured by the four of them previously. At this moment, he no longer dared to follow them. Furthermore, the soaring spiritual Qi light pillar had attracted the attention of many people. Therefore, when the four of them quietly flew out of the Poison Fog Swamp, they did not attract the attention of others.
At this moment, Jiang Tianlin Laozu suddenly said, "That's not right. At this moment, everyone is heading towards the Poison Fog Swamp. Only the four of us are heading outwards. It's very easy for others to notice us."
Tian Xue Laozu said, "Then, should we head back?"
Tian Fan Laozu said, "The risk is too high. Let's change our direction and split into two groups. One group will be in front while the other group will be behind. Just now, we met The Friar. He will definitely leak our information. Our group of four will be noticed immediately."
Just as Tian Fan Laozu's voice faded, they suddenly heard someone shouting from behind, "Over here! Someone come quickly!"
The four of them were instantly startled. The Wind Snow Fans, the wooden block, and the Formless Water Nether Sword, these four Rank 1 Spiritual Treasures simultaneously shot towards the source of the voice.
The person in the darkness originally had an extremely powerful Stealth Secret Technique. However, a single sentence from him had exposed his location. Seeing four rays of light flickering with intense spiritual fluctuations shooting towards him, the person only had time to say, "Four Spiritual Treasures? What kind of joke is this?!"
Following which, after a loud explosion, there was no more sound.
The four of them didn't dare to speak anymore. The Cloudy Mist Vase returned to Tian Xue Laozu's hands. Tian Xue and Tian Fan Laozu took the lead to change their direction and began to sneak out of the island. As for Lu Ping and Jiang Tianlin, they followed the general direction of the two of them.
Right at this moment, in the northwest direction of Qian Yuan Island, there was a sudden tremor. When Lu Ping and Jiang Tianlin looked towards the direction where the sound came from, they saw a soaring light flame lighting up in the northwest direction. Intense waves of spiritual Qi fluctuated in all directions from the flickering light flame. Obviously, there were people fighting there.
Lu Ping and Jiang Tianlin looked at each other. Both of them could see a trace of rejoicing in each other's eyes. Obviously, the battle happening there would greatly reduce the possibility of Lu Ping and the others being discovered.
However, before the two of them could finish rejoicing, a series of loud sounds rang out from the surroundings of Qian Yuan Island. The sounds of fighting, killing, cursing, and miserable shrieks filled the sky. The entire Qian Yuan Island, which had originally sunk into a strange silence, suddenly flared up.
Due to fighting over everything left behind by the Northern Alliance on Qian Yuan Island, the various powers of the human and demon races had finally lost control. The greed in their hearts caused the different powers to start fighting over one or more treasures. Furthermore, due to the arrival of reinforcements from both sides, the fighting escalated to the point of killing each other for treasures.
The entire Qian Yuan Island instantly became lively. As one of the few large sects in the overseas region, although the inheritance system of the Northern Alliance had various drawbacks, the overall strength of the Northern Alliance over the past thousands of years was unquestionable. Therefore, the thousands of years of foundation and accumulation of management inevitably caused Qian Yuan Island, the headquarters of the Northern Alliance, to hide too many treasures of the Northern Alliance.
The human and demon races may have a tacit understanding with each other in certain areas, such as the Northern Alliance's famous inheritance treasures, or Qianyuan City, and so on. But other areas, they couldn't be involved in all aspects, and it was impossible for them to be involved in all aspects.
This was also the reason why Lu Ping's group was able to sneak into Qian Yuan Island so easily. Even if they were discovered, they were still able to shake off their pursuers. The greater cultivators and the more important mid-stage cultivators had already gathered at the most important locations in the North Alliance. They were discussing how to divide the spoils among themselves. They couldn't care less about the leftovers.
The chaos on Qian Yuan Island also gave Lu Ping and the others a chance to regroup and break out of Qian Yuan Island. After all, at this time, no one had time to care about the four of them. As long as the four of them were careful and did not participate in the battle for treasures, no one would find trouble with the four of them for no reason.
However, the four of them carefully stayed away from the whirlpool of fighting, but it did not mean that the battle would not come to them.
Two streaks of light came towards the four of them one after the other. It was obvious that the first group was fleeing, while the second group was chasing.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Jiang Tianlin shouted anxiously, "Quickly dodge!"
The four of them immediately dodged the two streaks of light. The first group of streaks of light passed by the four of them, while the second group was about to catch up. However, an item was suddenly thrown out from the first group of people, landing on Lu Ping and the others.
Among the streaks of light in front, one of them cried out in surprise, "Senior brothers and sisters, we will lure them away. You all can bring this item back to the sect!"
Lu Ping and the others hastily retreated. Tian Fan Laozu said anxiously, "This item has nothing to do with us. Whoever wants it, just take it!"
However, it was already too late. A few people separated from the last group of people and rushed towards the four of them without any explanation. At the same time, two more people jumped out from the streaks of light and tried to snatch the item that had just landed.
Tian Xue Laozu scolded, "Are you guys stupid? Didn't you hear us say that this item has nothing to do with us? Can't you see through such a simple trick to sow discord?"
However, the four of them had no choice but to retaliate. In order to not escalate the conflict, the four of them used hand gestures and were suppressed by the six cultivators in front of them.
However, very quickly, Lu Ping and the others discovered that the situation was not as they had imagined. After the six people in front of them snatched the item that had been thrown out by the first group of people, not only did they not retreat, they even increased their attacks because of the four of them's passive resistance. This was akin to treating the four of them as fat sheep, wanting to reap some benefits from them!
Tian Xue Laozu's anger was overflowing. Seeing that the group of people had already chased after the first group of people, and there was no one else in the surroundings, she immediately said, "This old lady has had enough. You three men still want to continue acting?"
Just as she finished speaking, Jiang Tianlin Laozu had already taken the initiative to attack. However, even though he was fast, Lu Ping was even faster. The cultivator who was fighting with Lu Ping saw that Lu Ping's cultivation was the lowest. Thus, he used the attitude of a cat toying with a mouse to fight with Lu Ping. Lu Ping had long been suppressing his anger. Furthermore, he had already set up a death trap for the people in front of him.
Just as Jiang Tianlin Laozu took the initiative to attack, Lu Ping's Thin Flowing Water Sword suddenly increased in brightness. Under the panicked gaze of the cultivator in front of him, he counterattacked.
Just as The Friar was clumsily blocking Lu Ping's attack, which had suddenly increased in power by several times, before he could recover from his shock, the Spectral Aqua Sword had already silently neared his neck.
The person in front of him was after all a mid Dharma adept. His intuition, honed by life and death situations, quickly detected the danger. His body abruptly leaned to the side, and the Spectral Aqua Sword slashed across, creating an extremely deep wound on the cultivator's shoulder.
However, who was Lu Ping? He was someone who could seriously injure the Jade Shura in a head-on battle. Since when would he take a mid Dharma adept seriously?
Just as the cultivator dodged to the side, a small person about a foot tall appeared in front of him. The person's facial features actually bore some resemblance to the early Dharma adept that he had fought with earlier.
External Incarnation!
Just as this thought flashed across the cultivator's mind, the small person in front of him wielded a small sword, piercing through the cultivator's eyes!
Ah —
A scream could be heard, giving the other five a shock. When they turned to look, they saw Lu Ping use the Blood Orange Sword to break through the heavily injured cultivator's defense and pierce through his core space!
