The late Blood Condensation Realm cultivator from the Overflowing Sea Sect looked at the incoming Blood Sacrifice Dharma Artifact and smiled. "I knew you had this trick up your sleeve."
As he said that, he threw a low-grade Dharma Artifact. The low-grade Dharma Artifact filled with magic power collided with the mid-grade Dharma Artifact that Lu Ping had sacrificed. Amidst the loud explosion, a high-grade Dharma Artifact in the shape of a clamshell wrapped around the cultivator. The Overflowing Sea Sect cultivator weaved through the fragments of the Dharma Artifact and chased after Lu Ping.
Lu Ping finished using his Water Escape Talisman. When he jumped out of the sea and looked back, the cultivator was already hot on his heels.
Without another word, Lu Ping used another Water Escape Talisman, which turned into a stream of water and flew forward.
When Lu Ping was in the First Layer of the Blood Condensation Realm, he had managed to escape from a late Blood Condensation Realm cultivator from Xuan Ling Sect. However, at that time, Lu Ping had a high-grade Blood Escape Talisman. Furthermore, the Xuan Ling Sect cultivator who was chasing Lu Ping was not as strong as this Overflowing Sea Sect cultivator. Moreover, Lu Ping was still injured.
When Lu Ping jumped out of the sea again, a clump of seaweed suddenly rose from the sea and wrapped around Lu Ping's body. When he turned around, he realized that the Overflowing Sea Sect cultivator had not been left behind. Instead, he had caught up to Lu Ping by a few dozen feet.
Lu Ping swept the Soaring Wing Sword under his feet and instantly broke free from the shackles on his body. However, this brief moment gave the Overflowing Sea Sect cultivator enough time to catch up to Lu Ping. He placed a shallow plate in front of his mouth and breathed out a mouthful of magic power. The small particles on the plate were immediately blown into the air, transforming into dandelion-like objects that floated towards Lu Ping. Although their speed was slow, the sky full of flying feathers made it impossible for Lu Ping to dodge.
At that moment, Lu Ping's body was wounded and he had exhausted a considerable amount of his magic power. Thus, Lu Ping dared not stop for even a moment. One Soaring Wing Sword was in front of him while the other was behind him. He did his best to block off the omnipresent flying feathers. As for the Magic Cloud Bracelet beneath his feet, he unleashed the Wave Treading Technique and charged out.
Lu Ping gave it his all, but in the end, he was still incapable of dodging the flying feathers. Several of the flying feathers landed on Lu Ping's body. Instantly, countless fine roots extended out to stab into Lu Ping's clothes. Thankfully, Lu Ping had the inner armour on his upper body to protect himself. Thus, most of the flying feathers that landed on his body failed to stab into Lu Ping's skin.
Only two of the flying feathers landed on Lu Ping's arm. Instantly, Lu Ping felt an itch on his arm and the faint magic power within his body was sucked out by the roots that the flying feathers had pierced into his body. At the same time, Lu Ping's body turned sluggish. It felt as though his whole body had sunk into water. Even just walking would require a great deal of effort.
Lu Ping struggled to break free from the flying feathers. Channeling his magic power, he shook off the two flying feathers on his arm. Seeing that the cultivators from Overturned Seas Faction were about to arrive, Lu Ping could no longer care about anything else. He channelled his magic power into his meridians and he coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Using the blood as a guide, Lu Ping utilized the Magic Cloud Bracelet to activate the Wave Treading Technique, transforming it into a Blood Escape Technique. Instantly, Lu Ping's figure disappeared from the surface of the ocean. All that was left in the sky above the ocean was a fading red light.
The cultivator from Overturned Seas Faction's face sank and he swiftly pointed at the surface of the ocean. Next, a wooden boat appeared on the surface of the ocean. The cultivator stepped onto the wooden boat and it transformed into a beam of cyan-coloured light as it flew towards the direction that Lu Ping had gone.
Lu Ping activated the three secret techniques at the same time to cover a distance of tens of li in just one breath's worth of time. When he emerged from the surface of the ocean, Lu Ping, who was grievously wounded, coughed out a second mouthful of blood.
No matter what, this mouthful of blood must not go to waste. For safety's sake, Lu Ping made use of this mouthful of blood to activate the Blood Escape Technique again. This time, however, he did not activate all three techniques at the same time.
Tens of li away, Lu Ping had just stopped on the surface of the ocean when he heard a sharp screech coming from above. It was a flying demonic beast that saw Lu Ping trespassing into its territory. Thus, it flew towards Lu Ping's head and pecked at him.
Lu Ping used his divine sense to scan the demonic beast. It turned out to be a Sixth Layer Blood Condensation Realm demonic beast. When Lu Ping was in good condition, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of it. But now that Lu Ping's injuries had worsened, and the demonic beast had the advantage of flight, he could only turn around and continue fleeing.
Lu Ping ordered the demonic beast to chase him for tens of li before he flapped his wings twice and circled twice in the sky before turning back.
Lu Ping finally had a chance to catch his breath. However, before he could fly for more than a few li, a huge wave soared into the sky, drawing an arc in the air and crashing towards Lu Ping.
A huge fish leaped out of the water. It turned out to be a strange fish with a mouth that occupied half of its body!
Lu Ping moved sideways to avoid the water wave. The big fish emerged from the water and spat out a stream of arcane energy at Lu Ping again. Lu Ping didn't know what to do.
Lu Ping used his divine sense to scan the fish. It turned out to be a Fourth Layer Blood Condensation Realm demonic beast.
Lu Ping was seriously injured. After using the Blood Escape Technique twice, Lu Ping was almost at the end of his rope. He was in a hurry to find a safe place to recuperate. In addition, he was in a dangerous place like the demon territory. He really didn't have the mood to stay and deal with the demonic beasts.
Lu Ping retracted the arcane energy in his body and used his Magic Cloud Circle to avoid the strange fish. He randomly chose a direction and continued fleeing in the demon territory.
Along the way, Lu Ping would be attacked by a Blood Condensation demonic beast every few tens or hundreds of li. The demonic beasts in the Blood Condensation Realm occupied different territories according to their strength.
Lu Ping relied on his large divine sense range and Magic Cloud Circle's speed to dodge the attacks.
Finally, at a place that even Lu Ping didn't know, he encountered a Second Layer Blood Condensation Realm demonic beast.
Lu Ping thought for a while and released Lu Dagui. He used his divine sense to give it a few instructions.
Blood Condensation Realm demonic beasts had already gained sentience. Although they couldn't speak, they could communicate with human cultivators through their divine sense. Moreover, Lu Dagui was Lu Ping's spirit pet, so it obeyed Lu Ping's orders.
Lu Dagui's three-meter-long body floated on the surface of the sea. Its long neck extended out of its shell and it let out a low growl at the crab. This was a challenge horn between demonic beasts.
The crab's cultivation was higher than Lu Dagui's. The only thing it feared was the human cultivator beside it. However, Lu Dagui's provocation had completely angered the crab.
Demonic beasts had a stricter hierarchy than humans. The stronger demonic beasts would always have a higher status than the weaker ones. The law of the jungle was the law of the jungle.
Lu Dagui's provocation was an unforgivable mistake in the crab's eyes. This sea turtle had to pay with its life.
The crab waved its two large pincers. Its three-meter-long body took a few steps on the surface of the sea and arrived in front of Lu Dagui.
One of its pincers swiped at the sea. Lu Dagui only had enough time to use his four limbs to create a wave to block the attack. However, with the protection of Lu Ping's wings, Lu Dagui clearly lacked experience in fighting against demonic beasts. The crab's pincers effortlessly scattered the wave and lifted Lu Dagui up from the surface of the sea.
The crab took another step forward and its other pincer was already aiming for Lu Dagui's neck.
Lu Dagui instinctively pulled his neck back into the shell. At the same time, he threw himself into the sea. The pincers scraped against the shell, creating a grinding sound that made people's teeth hurt.
In just a few rounds, Lu Dagui was forced into the shell by the crab's attacks. No matter how the crab attacked him, he couldn't fight back.
Fortunately, Lu Dagui had a natural technique. The crab couldn't do anything to him.
Lu Ping watched from the side as the two demonic beasts fought. At first, he didn't show any signs of interfering.
In fact, this was Lu Ping deliberately giving Lu Dagui a chance to train. Since he had become Lu Ping's spirit pet, he naturally couldn't just be a mount on the sea. A spirit pet's other identity was to be a cultivator's fighter.
The result of the fight made Lu Ping very dissatisfied. Other than the hard shell, Lu Dagui didn't have any good points.
Of course, this was related to the crab's First Layer Blood Condensation cultivation. However, Lu Dagui's ordinary bloodline was also one of the reasons. His background and talent were far inferior to the three Green Sea Snakes.
Lu Ping reluctantly released the Soaring Winged Swords. The two swords circled around the crab. Before the demonic beast could defend itself, two meter-long pincers were already cut off by Lu Ping. Lu Ping put them away. These two large pincers were the only parts of the crab that could pique Lu Ping's interest.
When Lu Dagui saw its master stepping forward to help, its morale was immediately boosted. The turtle that was hiding on the sea surface was suddenly lifted into the air by a wave. The huge turtle shell immediately spun and slammed into the crab that had its pincers chopped off.
After a loud bang, Lu Dagui smashed into the sea surface and only splashed up a few feet of water. On the other hand, the crab's two eyeballs were smashed by the turtle shell. Blood splattered everywhere.
When Lu Ping saw that the crab couldn't fight back anymore, he released Lu Dabao and the three spirit snakes.
The five demonic beasts worked together and devoured the Second Layer Blood Condensation Realm demonic beast in no time.
At this time, Lu Ping had already found the crab's nest under a coral reef.
Lu Ping cast a spell and cleaned up the lair. He urgently needed a safe place to recuperate from his injuries, which was why he asked Lu Dagui to challenge the crab. This way, after Lu Dagui killed the crab, he would become the little lord of this area. Not only that, with his new identity, he wouldn't attract too much attention from the other monsters. This way, Lu Ping would be able to recuperate without being discovered by the other monsters.
He ordered Lu Dagui to patrol the crab's territory and announce to other demonic beasts that Lu Dagui was the lord of this area. At the same time, he told Lu Dabao and the three spirit snakes not to run around in Lu Dagui's territory. After that, Lu Ping swallowed a high-grade Essence Recovery Pill that was worth nearly a thousand spirit stones and started to recover from his injuries.
