The appearance of the Sword of the True Spirit caused a commotion in Lu Ping's core space once again.
The Moli Sword was suspended horizontally above the nine-tier white jade lotus. It was as far away from the Genchen formation as it was from the Dragon Dharma Power. However, this time, the Genchen formation did not make any strange movements. In fact, after Lu Ping had used this secret technique that allowed the Sword of the True Spirit to go through the trials at the same time as the treasure, the Sword of the True Spirit could also be considered as one of Lu Ping's personal treasures.
The praying mantis in two raised its head to look at the cold and elegant Lil 'Miss sitting on the Mo Li sword. Its pair of large blades crossed habitually, but it did not come out. Then it turned and entered the scissors.
The Seven Treasures Thunder Calabash was no longer as arrogant as before. At this time, not only was it silent, but it was also much more obedient. It even subtly moved its body back a little. There seemed to be a natural repulsion between it and the Sword of the True Spirit.
The other spirit treasures also submerged their weapon spirits into the body of the spirit treasure. Only Linglong seemed to be a little confused. She patted the cauldron and slowly moved closer to the Moli Sword.
The Tianhua Dew in the air also gradually dissipated. Lu Ping's level of practice had also increased rapidly when he had advanced to the mid Dharma stage. He began to use the Tianhua Dew's influence to stabilize his level of practice.
Lu Ping stretched out his right hand and blue electric arcs flickered all over his body before extending to his right arm. The electric arcs became brighter and brighter, as if all the electric arcs in his body were converging towards his right arm. In the end, all the electric arcs gathered at the tip of his right index finger. The electric arcs were so bright that they almost covered the sun in the sky.
Lu Ping opened a jade essence bottle and placed it under his index finger. The dazzling light dimmed slightly, and when he took a closer look, he saw a drop of lightning liquid falling from his fingertip into the jade essence bottle, creating sparks in the process.
This was a high-grade heaven-level spirit item, the Water of Punishment of Thunder!
After Lu Ping condensed the first lightning tribulation liquid from the remaining lightning tribulation energy in his body, a few more drops of lightning tribulation liquid dripped from his fingertip into the jade essence bottle. After nine drops had dripped into the bottle, the lightning tribulation liquid on his fingertip finally dissipated completely.
Lu Ping put the jade bottle away with some regret. If not for the fact that the Sword of the True Spirit was holding him back this time, Lu Ping was confident that he would have been able to form even more Water of Punishment of Thunder.
Lu Ping stood up and his divine sense swept out in all directions like a raging flood. His divine sense covered a radius of nearly 50 miles, and he was startled as if he had discovered something strange.
Kongming Island was a large island with a radius of nearly 500 miles. Naturally, Lu Ping's Divine Will could not envelop the entire island. However, Lu Ping's Divine Will could instantly come into contact with the protective array that enveloped Kongming Island.
Previously, Lu Ping had used the Three Pure Ones True Eyes to check on the dome of the protective array. However, he did not realize that the protective array could actually connect with Lu Ping's Divine Will.
The moment Lu Ping's Divine Will came into contact with the array, the entire Kongming Ocean, with the nine foundation arrays as the center, extended out from the other nine layers of arrays. In total, the area covered by the ten layers of arrays was all captured by Lu Ping's Divine Will.
This was a huge area, which meant that Lu Ping's Divine Will could observe everything within the area covered by the Kongming Island's array!
At this moment, the cultivators from the South Sea, East Sea, and Middle Earth who had heard the news and rushed over to ambush in the Kongming Array were all under Lu Ping's surveillance.
What a grand scene!
Lu Ping had thought that his Heavenly Tribulation on Kongming Island might attract the attention of those with ulterior motives, but he did not expect that it would attract so many people. This almost put Lu Ping in a desperate situation.
Lu Ping himself did not expect to accumulate such a large number of Heavenly Tribulation phenomena during the year when he was refining the Lone Eagle's bloodline. According to the experience of ordinary cultivators, the Heavenly Tribulation could be summoned at any time. It would only take a few hours to two to three hours for the Heavenly Tribulation to pass. Even if he attracted the attention of those with ulterior motives, Lu Ping was confident that he would be able to escape easily.
According to Lu Ping's rough estimate, there were at least a few hundred cultivators gathered in the Kongming Array. These array masters only made up a small portion of the cultivators. Most of them were obviously here for Lu Ping.
Among the hundreds of arrays that extended from the nine foundation arrays on Kongming Island, besides the nine main arrays, almost all of the other arrays had cultivators guarding them. This meant that no matter which teleporter Lu Ping used to activate from Kongming Island to the outside world, he would encounter cultivators guarding the teleporter. Once the two sides started fighting, Lu Ping would immediately be surrounded by cultivators who rushed over.
At the same time, Lu Ping also understood why these cultivators had gathered together but did not attempt to break the Kongming Array by force. Back then, the Kongming Sect had been destroyed not because the protective array on the island had been broken, but because many Dharma adepts had broken through and entered Kongming Island.
Although the combined forces of the various sects were not as powerful as the one that had destroyed the Kongming Sect, as long as they joined forces and attacked together, it was not impossible to break the array.
However, after the battle that had destroyed the Kongming Sect, the array formation system of the Kongming Array had long been destroyed. Now, it was only relying on the Kongming Island's spirit vein to barely maintain its basic operations. If it were to be forcefully broken again, the nine foundation arrays would not be able to be restored. Once that happened, the hundreds of arrays that extended from the Kongming Array would collapse over time, and this sacred place for array masters would no longer exist. This was also the reason why no one had been able to enter Kongming Island in the thousands of years since the Kongming Sect had been destroyed. It was not because they could not, but because the array masters hidden within the Kongming Array had joined forces to stop them.
Now that someone had been able to enter Kongming Island without breaking the Kongming Array, many array masters quickly thought of the 32 Kongming Essences that the Kongming Sect had obtained. Then, when they thought of entering Kongming Island without breaking the nine foundation arrays, not a single array master could resist the temptation.
Furthermore, the destruction of the Kongming Sect had been done in a hurry. The huge Kongming Island might not have been completely looted. At the very least, the unique Divine Will Sculpting Technique and the nine foundation arrays were still a mystery. If they could obtain these legacies …
As they thought of this, the array masters' hearts burned with eagerness. They could not wait any longer.
Lu Ping waved his hand and a space door immediately formed. Lu Ping took a step forward and when he reappeared, he was already close to Deng Ming and the others.
Deng Ming's hands did not stop moving. On one hand, he made a golden abacus, and on the other hand, he placed black and white chess pieces on the huge chessboard from time to time. Sometimes, he would pick out a few black and white chess pieces from the chessboard. As for the set of calculation tokens that Deng Ming used to calculate the formation, he had already thrown them away.
The golden abacus was the legacy item that Deng Ming had obtained from the remains of the fifth array formation, while the chessboard was one of Wen Yuan's formation setting magic treasures. These two magic treasures were extremely brilliant formation setting magic treasures for array masters. Their value was equivalent to that of a Spirit Treasure for an ordinary cultivator.
With Lu Ping's current knowledge, among all the array-laying treasures he had seen, only the Array-Laying Token made from the Spirit Sealing Wood he gave to Hu Lili had the potential to surpass these two treasures in the future. The other treasures were the Array-Laying Token that Enlightened Master Xuan Chen, who had been an Array Formation Grandmaster for a hundred years. But even the Array-Laying Token was inferior to these two treasures.
At this moment, the two magic treasures were being used by Deng Ming to calculate the array formations at the same time. Even Lu Ping was shocked when he saw this. He could not help but ask, "Setting up a formation and calculating is so complicated. Even if you have two perfect formation setting magic treasures, you don't have to use them at the same time, do you? Don't tell me you can still multitask?"
Although Lu Ping could also control multiple magic treasures at the same time to fight against an enemy, Lu Ping's Divine Will was extremely strong. Moreover, controlling magic treasures was not like setting up a formation. The latter was many times more complicated and could not be done with just a strong Divine Will.
Hearing this, Deng Ming raised his head and looked at Lu Ping. He smiled and said, "Congratulations, Senior Brother, for passing the Thunder Trial and achieving the mid Dharma stage!"
Lu Ping saw that while Deng Ming was talking to him, the two formation setting magic treasures in his hands did not stop. The surprise in Lu Ping's eyes grew stronger. He said, "Do you really have this kind of secret technique that allows you to multitask?"
Deng Ming smiled and said, "It's a secret technique that I inherited from Senior Bi Ran. Oh, that is, from the remains of the senior cultivator that I found in the fifth formation. This secret technique allows me to multitask in a short period of time. It can greatly speed up the calculation of a formation."
Deng Ming paused and continued, "This Senior Bi Ran was the successor of the Ji Ran Sect of the Central Plains. This Ji Ran Sect was also a small sect that was famous for its formations hundreds of years ago in the Central Plains. This secret technique, 'Telekinesis Life', could be said to be the foundation of this sect. Unfortunately, it was coveted in the end, and the entire sect, except for him, was annihilated. After that, Senior Bi Ran did not dare to trust anyone. He could only sneak into the South Sea and hide in this Kongming Formation."
Lu Ping nodded. The reason for the destruction of the Ji Ran Sect was similar to that of the Kongming Sect. The secret technique "Telekinesis Life" was indeed impressive. However, to be able to obtain such a highly effective secret technique in a short period of time, the price must have been very high.
Just as Lu Ping was about to ask, the two magic treasures in Deng Ming's hands suddenly shone brightly. Deng Ming was overjoyed and said, "It's done!"
Immediately after, Deng Ming's complexion quickly turned ashen. Clearly, the side effects of using this secret technique had come. At the same time, the clothes on Deng Ming's left shoulder were already stained with blood.
Lu Ping frowned. Only now did he notice that there were blood stains on Deng Ming's chest and back. Clearly, he had used this "Telekinesis Life" secret technique twice before. Lu Ping asked, "At the cost of self-mutilation?"
Deng Ming smiled in an unconcerned manner. He stretched out his hand and patted his left shoulder. The blood red color that was still spreading immediately stopped. He said, "This is nothing. You should know that Senior has been in closed-door cultivation for more than ten years. With the help of the formation inheritance of these two, I have grasped the arrangement of dozens of exquisite formations and the method to break them. Now, I have also figured out two of the seventh level of the Nether Void Formation. Compared to these achievements, these small injuries are really nothing."
