Looking at Yuan Long's receding figure, Linglong, who was behind Lu Ping, couldn't help asking, "Brother, is the pagoda that the big monkey mentioned to help Linglong suppress and condense the spiritual vein Bajing Tower?"
Lu Ping spread his hands and said, "How do I know? I just learned today that there is a suppressing treasure in the Treasure Cauldron of Heaven and Earth. Bajing Tower is just a guess. Even if it is true, how can Bajing Tower help you suppress the spiritual vein? I don't know whether your body and Bajing Tower are one or not."
Linglong looked very frustrated and said, "Well, I'm afraid the thunder punishment will be delayed again!"
Lu Ping knocked her head and said with a smile, "Don't be discontented. This is a good thing. If you can really figure out the secret of the Treasure Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, you will get a great deal."
Although Lu Ping comforted Ling Long, he wasn't sure if Eight Scenic Pavilion had anything to do with Ling Long. At the very least, the two didn't seem to have anything to do with each other. However, Lu Ping felt that it was too much of a coincidence that they both came from Ying Tian Dojo at the same time.
After putting away Linglong, Lu Ping said goodbye to Black Tortoise and continued to go upstream along the Qingming River. At this time, he was in the Central Region, so it was impossible for him to go back to Beihai to see what the relationship between Bajing Tower and Linglong's wine cauldron was.
Regardless of whether or not he could find the connection between the two, even if he could, the Bajing Tower was now one of the most important treasures of Zhen Ling Sect. It was the most important training ground for Zhen Ling Sect's disciples. At the same time, it was also the place where disciples who made mistakes would be punished. Thus, it could not be touched easily.
As the longest river in the Central Region, the Qingming River happened to be the section from Jiuxuan Tower to Magic Cloud City. After several years, Lu Ping was finally closer to the starting point of the middle section of the Qingming River.
Although the Qingming River was long, it was not so long that it took Black Tortoise several years to finish it. It was because Lu Ping was hindered by various unexpected accidents on the way that he finally entered the territory of Jiuxuan Tower.
Since leaving the Magic Cloud City, Lu Ping had been through a series of battles and drifted on the Qing Ming River for a period of time. He had already gained a new understanding of the "Great River East Sword Technique". Now, he was practicing swordsmanship on the back of the Black Tortoise, trying to separate a brand-new set of swordsmanship from the general principle of the "Great River East Sword Technique".
However, Lu Ping's luck was clearly not very good. Just as he was concentrating on practicing his swordsmanship, a beam of light fell from the Nine Heavens and grabbed at Lu Ping's head!
Lu Ping's expression did not change. The Dual Flying Swords in his hands suddenly made a "Milky Way Surging", which seemed to roll up the Milky Way. Even the water of the Qingming River under his feet flowed against the current for dozens of feet, colliding with the current surging upstream and splashing in all directions.
The falling light was immediately submerged by the surging sword light. However, this sudden attack was obviously premeditated for a long time. Naturally, it would not only have this method. At the moment when the light was submerged, a crimson light had already slashed horizontally from dozens of feet in front of Lu Ping, aiming at Lu Ping's neck.
"Bang!"
A stream of sparks suddenly exploded in front of Lu Ping. Unknowingly, the Invisible Water Sword had already appeared in front of Lu Ping, blocking the horizontal slash of the crimson light. When the crimson light dissipated, it was actually a wing blade covered in feathers.
However, at the moment when Lu Ping blocked these two attacks, a golden claw suddenly broke through the space behind Lu Ping, directly grabbing at Lu Ping's back.
This claw could be said to have come without a sound. Obviously, this was a premeditated attack by the sneak attacker. This was the real killer move!
If it were an ordinary cultivator, they would probably not be able to withstand this series of sneak attacks. However, how could Lu Ping be so easily schemed against?
Just as the claw broke through the space behind Lu Ping, Lu Ping's tyrannical divine sense had already detected an extremely subtle spatial fluctuation. This was obviously an expert who was extremely proficient in the art of sneak attacks!
Unknowingly, Lu Ping's body had suddenly turned around. The attack aimed at Lu Ping's back was now right in front of Lu Ping.
Lu Ping's left arm moved forward, and the index finger of his left hand pointed out, colliding with the golden claw!
There wasn't the slightest sound or movement, it was just a silent collision. Then, the giant golden claw abruptly retreated, and a drop of blood oozed out from where Lu Ping's index finger had touched it. Then, an angry cry came from the sky.
When Lu Ping looked up, he saw the spiritual energy in the sky rapidly converging. The phantom of a majestic giant eagle appeared above Lu Ping's head. The giant eagle's head poked down, and its hook-like beak pecked at the top of his head.
Lu Ping was furious. He shouted, "Are you done yet?"
As he spoke, Lu Ping suddenly waved his right arm with his sleeve. The spiritual energy in the sky suddenly became chaotic. The spiritual energy giant eagle could no longer maintain its form and immediately collapsed in mid-air.
"Lu Tianping of the North Sea!"
The spiritual energy giant eagle was dispersed by Lu Ping with a wave of his sleeve. Suddenly, two figures appeared in the sky. One of them was obviously within Lu Ping's expectations, but the other person made Lu Ping slightly surprised.
The other person was none other than the First Princess of the Peacock royalty, Yang Huajun. The other person was a young man with a cold expression and a sharp face. He was slightly thin and had broad shoulders.
This person was the one who shouted "Lu Tianping of the North Sea" just now. He was also the Lone Eagle who failed to kill Lu Qin-er in Magic Cloud City that day and suffered a loss under Lu Ping's hands.
Lu Ping ignored the Lone Eagle youth's clamor. He slowly floated up and said to Yang Huajun, "So it's Fellow Daoist Yang. I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect to meet you here."
When the Lone Eagle youth saw that Lu Ping didn't pay attention to him at all, a fierce look flashed in his eyes. However, his face was still indifferent as if he didn't notice that Lu Ping ignored his existence.
The Golden Peacock Yang Huajun also had a cold expression. When he heard Lu Ping's greeting, he twitched the corner of his mouth and said in a crisp voice, "I was passing by here and saw Lu Daoyou practicing swordsmanship. My hands were itchy and I wanted to spar with Fellow Daoyou. I hope Fellow Daoyou won't blame me for offending you!"
Ying Ao was naturally the Lone Eagle youth next to Yang Huajun. However, his previous attacks were all aimed at Lu Ping's vital points. Moreover, his moves were sinister and vicious. Lu Ping really couldn't see that this Lone Eagle Clan cultivator wanted to spar with him. It was clear that he wanted to kill him.
Lu Ping nodded with a smile and said, "Since I'm passing by, I won't bother Fellow Daoist any longer. If you have time in the future, Fellow Daoist Yang can come to the North Sea as a guest. This Lu will definitely welcome you!"
From beginning to end, Lu Ping didn't even look at Ying Ao.
Yang Huajun naturally noticed the subtle difference between the two and quickly said, "I've caused trouble for Fellow Daoist. See you later!"
Lu Ping also smiled and said, "See you later!"
The escape light under Yang Huajun's feet flickered. Obviously, he was about to leave. Unexpectedly, the escape light dimmed. Yang Huajun couldn't help but frown and look back. Obviously, Ying Ao had stopped Yang Huajun from leaving. Lu Ping was still watching with a smile on his face.
Yang Huajun said in a deep voice, "Brother Ao!"
Ying Ao ignored Yang Huajun's words of dissuasion. Instead, he stared at Lu Ping and said, "On the day of the battle of Qing Ming River, Lu Daoyou was also watching from the side, right?"
This was not a secret. That day, Lu Ping, Liu Tianyuan, and Tian Tian did not hide their tracks on the lonely hill on the south bank of Qing Ming River. Not to mention that they had fought with the direct descendants of Nine Profound Tower, Skyward Pavilion, and Purple Sun Palace before. Many people knew that Lu Ping was nearby.
Lu Ping inadvertently glanced at Ying Ao and said, "Whether I was near Qing Ming River that day, shouldn't Fellow Daoist Ying know better?"
For some reason, Yang Huajun naturally looked at Ying Ao with a face full of doubt. However, he saw a flash of anger on Ying Ao's face. He was an outstanding cultivator among the young generation of Lone Eagle. Even among the third generation of cultivators in the entire cultivation world, there were few who could rival him. He had always thought highly of himself, but he didn't expect that he would accidentally suffer a loss from Boss Lu Ping outside Qing Ming River that day. This matter had always been bothering him.
Previously, when they were flying over Qing Ming River, Ying Ao suddenly discovered that Lu Ping was practicing swordsmanship in Qing Ming River, so he immediately used sparring as an excuse to sneak an attack on Lu Ping, but the method he used was to kill.
He naturally knew the news of Lu Ping defeating Ma Si The Great, but this Ying Ao was already brooding over his defeat at the hands of Lu Ping, and the news of Lu Ping defeating a late Dharma adept made him even angrier. The Lone Eagle's temperament was originally extreme and stubborn, and this Ying Ao thought highly of himself. This time, when he was traveling with Yang Huajun, Yang Huajun insisted on traveling along Qing Ming River, and at the same time, he realized why Yang Huajun wanted to travel along Qing Ming River. Naturally, he wanted to kill Lu Ping.
However, the attack was easily blocked by Lu Ping, and after Ying Ao suffered a loss again, he saw Lu Ping and Yang Huajun talking as if he was nothing, which made Ying Ao burn with jealousy, and he immediately had other thoughts.
Lu Ping's mockery made Ying Ao hate him even more, and he said in a cold voice, "So you're also one of the suspects?"
This sentence was directed at Yang Huajun, but Lu Ping was confused, but he understood in his heart that this Ying Ao obviously wanted to smear his name.
Yang Huajun immediately frowned and said unhappily, "Brother Ying, please be careful with your words. Uncle Jichang died because he was surrounded, and it has nothing to do with Lu Daoyou."
Ying Ao laughed coldly. "That day, he also had two brothers with him. Don't forget that this person could even defeat a late Dharma adept. It's not impossible for him to join forces with his two brothers to kill Senior Jichang and take his Natal Feather …"
"Enough!"
Yang Huajun interrupted Ying Ao's words coldly and said, "Brother Ying, you've lost your composure. Some things can't be said casually."
Ying Ao didn't expect Yang Huajun to be so protective of the human adept in front of him, and his expression instantly became even more gloomy. Yang Huajun apologized to Lu Ping, "Hua Jun is really ashamed about what happened today. If I've offended you, Lu Daoyou, please don't blame me. In the future, Hua Jun will definitely apologize to you personally. I'll take my leave now."
With that, the conveyance light under Yang Huajun's feet flashed again. This time, Ying Ao didn't stop him, and the two disappeared in mid-air together.
