When unleashed with its full power, the Colorful Petals Art could erase a cultivator's lifespan by 108 years. At that time, although Lu Ping was suddenly attacked by Mu Changsheng and his own strength was at its lowest, even if he used all his strength to resist, he would at most lose 20 to 30 years of his lifespan.
However, the moment Mu Changsheng made his move, Lu Ping already knew that this Mu Changsheng definitely had a backup plan. This person had been planning this for a long time, and certainly did not only have the power for this one attack.
But if Lu Ping used all his strength to block the Colorful Petals Art, he would certainly not have the spare strength to block the attack of the giant tortoise. However, at this time, Lu Ping directly threw out half of the Wonder Dew. After a total of 12 drops of the Wonder Dew were stimulated by the Spirit Explosion Technique, a huge amount of life force spread out, immediately satisfying the absorption of the Colorful Petals Art.
It must be known that each drop of the Wonder Dew could be used as a spirit guide to refine a 30-year Purple Gold Longevity Pill. Although the huge amount of life force contained in it was not comparable to 30 years of lifespan, it was still at least eight to ten years. The 12 drops of the Wonder Dew combined with the Spirit Explosion Technique, a secret technique that maximized the potential of the spiritual materials, emitted a rich life force that was enough to confuse Mu Changsheng's perception.
Fortunately, Lu Ping's method saved him a lot of time. He used a mouthful of True Yuan to regain his composure and immediately launched a head-on attack at the giant tortoise avatar. Meanwhile, the dragon avatar in his heart core space cast a spatial spell. It stretched out its dragon claw from the void and pressed down on Mu Changsheng's giant tortoise avatar. The powerful and mysterious avatar immediately caused Mu Changsheng's giant tortoise avatar to suffer a great loss.
Right after Mu Changsheng and the two great cultivators of the sect left, the nearby space shook, and Xiao Baiyu and the others suddenly appeared nearby. Yuan Pokong immediately exclaimed, "Amazing! This kid was actually able to achieve this. I'm afraid he's not inferior to you, Old Xiao, from all those years ago. I didn't expect that such a monster would appear in the third generation of cultivators!"
Xiao Baiyu's usually calm expression also carried a trace of solemnity as he said, "Perhaps I would have lost to him if I were to risk my life back then!"
Seven Fan Laozu, who rarely spoke, also raised his head in surprise and said, "How could this kid have such strength? Looking at his swordsmanship, I'm afraid it's not as sharp as yours back then! "
Xiao Baiyu nodded and said, "It's true that it's not as sharp, but it's more vigorous. This kid's True Essence is unimaginably rich, and he actually still had the strength to counterattack after being ambushed by two great cultivators!"
"But don't be deceived by this kid. This kid isn't a pure sword cultivator at all!"
"Nonsense!"
Yuan Pokong opened his mouth and said, "Of course I can tell that this kid isn't a pure sword cultivator. A sword cultivator wouldn't use so many Divine Abilities and Spirit Treasures that aren't flying swords. Nowadays, how many people are like all of you who cling to a sword and refuse to let go? It's never bad to have more skills, and there'll always be a time when you learn something else. I heard that this kid is also a rather famous Pill Refinement Grandmaster. At his age, he has such accomplishments in both cultivation and alchemy. You, Xiao Baiyu, are far from being able to reach that level all those years ago."
Xiao Baiyu shook his head and said, "If I'm distracted, I won't be able to reach the supreme realm of 'One Sword to Destroy All Laws'!"
Yuan Pokong sneered and said, "'One Sword to Destroy All Laws'? So what? Jiao Daoren was still suppressed by Peng Daoren for eternity!"
Xiao Baiyu explained, "Although Jiao Daoren left behind the explanation of 'One Sword to Destroy All Laws', in fact, even he himself hadn't really reached such a realm. Otherwise, even if Peng Daoren had the number one divine weapon for opening the world, I'm afraid he would still die under Jiao Daoren's sword!"
Yuan Pokong shouted, "Look, look, even Jiao Daoren himself hasn't mastered 'One Sword to Destroy All Laws'. Do you think you, Xiao Baiyu, can?"
"If you don't have faith, you won't succeed!"
Xiao Baiyu said indifferently. After that, he ignored Yuan Pokong's disapproving look and changed the topic to Lu Ping. He continued, "What I mean is that this kid's trump card is much more brilliant than his swordsmanship. His swordsmanship is just a layer of clothing he uses to conceal his strength."
"Oh!"
This time, not only Yuan Pokong, but also Qi Fan Laozu and Yuwen Xiaotian were a little surprised. Feng Lu, who had been silent all this while, said, "No wonder, so that's how it is!"
"Impossible, this kid's swordsmanship is already so powerful, then what is he hiding?"
Yuwen Xiaotian and Qi Fan Laozu's faces were a little ugly. Obviously, only Xiao Baiyu and Feng Lu could see Lu Ping's true strength, and it seemed that Feng Lu was still a little hesitant. It was only after hearing Xiao Baiyu's words that he finally confirmed it. As for the other three Pure Yang Laozu, they obviously thought that Lu Ping's most powerful magical power was on the flying sword.
Xiao Baiyu shook his head and said, "I'm not too sure about this!"
"Why don't we, Old Yuan, test it out?"
The other Pure Yang Laozu were a little tempted by Yuan Pokong's idea, but Yuan Pokong's motive was probably for fun.
Xiao Baiyu thought about it and finally rejected Yuan Pokong's idea, although he also wanted to know what this young cultivator was hiding. He said, "Let's not pay attention to him for the time being. After all, he can't affect the overall situation now. However, the matter of Wuxing School and the two water veins is imminent. At this time, we must not be distracted!"
At this time, what Lu Ping, Xiao Baiyu, and the others did not know was that Wuxing School had opened up the Green Jade Canal and connected the two water veins while Jiuxuan Tower was besieged by Mara's army.
This news made the whole Wuxing School furious, and it also surprised Xiao Baiyu and the others. People from both sides concluded that this news must have been deliberately released by Lu Tianping. But didn't he know that by doing so, his three followers of the Green Sea Snakes would be killed?
If the Five Elements Sect really killed the three spirits out of humiliation and anger, the Emerald Sea Spirit Snake Clan would certainly seek revenge for the smallest grievance, but they would not be able to do anything to the Five Elements Sect that was far away in the central region. Instead, Lu Tianping would probably have to bear the thunderous wrath of the Emerald Sea Spirit Snake Clan first.
In fact, after the matter of Wuxing School stealing the water vein of Qing Ming River was exposed, Samling was almost killed. But for some reason, he survived and was handed over to Tu Gaoshan, who had the highest cultivation among the Five Great Juzi, to watch over him.
However, the truth of the matter soon came to light. Jiuxuan Tower, which had been besieged by Mara's army for more than ten years, suddenly had two cultivators escape from inside by some unknown means. They brought out the latest news of Jiuxuan Tower and the real strength of Mara's army.
And these two were none other than the first Pure Yang cultivator among the second-generation cultivators of Jiuxuan Tower, Laozu Eighth Sister Zhu, and the first heir of Jiuxuan Tower, Master of Yiyuan Tower, Wei Zhen!
Although only these two people appeared in Jiuxuan Tower at this time, they stood on the highest moral ground. The water vein of Qing Ming River was an important means for Jiuxuan Tower to resist the siege of Mara's army. At this time, because of the interference and weakening of Wuxing School, Jiuxuan Tower's own defense power was greatly reduced, and they had paid a huge price for this.
Wuxing School's move was obviously to take the opportunity to frame Jiuxuan Tower. While the whole cultivation world began to help Jiuxuan Tower, Wuxing School was undoubtedly condoning the disaster of Mara. Even Eighth Sister Zhu said something even more shocking. She said, "With the example of Magic Cloud City, our sect has to make the fastest plan. That is, this great disaster of Mara against Jiuxuan Tower may also be the result of someone's connivance and guidance. But there is no Demon Clan force like Endless Mountain in Central Region for such a large scale of Mara's army to gather!"
Her words directly pointed out that Wuxing School was the driving force behind the siege of Jiuxuan Tower by Mara's army. For a moment, the whole cultivation world was in an uproar. Although Wuxing School strongly denied it, its act of stealing the water vein of Qing Ming River had at least solidified the reputation of taking advantage of the situation.
What's more, the disaster of Mara was the common enemy of the whole cultivation world, including both the human and the demon clans. This time, Wuxing School's behavior was really despicable.
While the whole cultivation world was shocked by Eighth Sister Zhu's accusation of Wuxing School, Skyward Pavilion took the lead in showing solidarity with Jiuxuan Tower. At the same time, they also sent a pure Yang practitioner and three Grand Practitioners up the river to join the rescue of Jiuxuan Tower. This was not only to reinforce Jiuxuan Tower, but also to test the pressure on Wuxing School.
After all, most of the water vein of Qing Ming River had always been divided between Jiuxuan Tower and Skyward Pavilion. This time, Wuxing School's interference was undoubtedly weakening Skyward Pavilion's interests.
Unfortunately, Skyward Pavilion was also in constant trouble at this time. In addition to the areas of influence near the sea and on land that were gradually affected by the Disaster of Mara, the Crystal Palace's infiltration into the mainland of the Central Plains was also a headache for Skyward Pavilion. Heavenly Moon Sect had been forced to withdraw all of their strength from the sea. At this time, it was already commendable that they could send a pure Yang practitioner and three Grand Practitioners to reinforce Jiuxuan Tower.
Originally, Lingyun Valley also had some use for the water vein of Qing Ming River. Unfortunately, Magic Cloud City had been destroyed. At this time, Lingyun Valley was entangled with the Endless Mountains. Although they had shown solidarity, they really could not spare any strength to reinforce Jiuxuan Tower.
At this time, the cultivation world of the Central Plains could not help but look at Zi Yang Palace at the edge of the Western Wilderness. As a Holy Land with the deepest hidden strength among the five Holy Lands of the Central Plains, Zi Yang Palace's attitude was undoubtedly the most important.
However, what was regrettable was that Zi Yang Palace did not have the slightest reaction. Just when the cultivation world was guessing why Zi Yang Palace was acting like this, a shocking news suddenly came from the Western Wilderness: the Pegasus Clan, the Green-eyed Golden Condor Clan, the Koi Clan, and the Rainbow Tiger Clan from the western part of the Northern Ice Plains had joined forces to attack Western Wilderness Palace!
As the only large human sect in Western Wasteland, the Purple Sun Palace's bridgehead had fallen under the joint attack of the four great demon clans. Although the Purple Sun Palace had immediately responded to rescue them, two of the three great cultivators of Western Wasteland Palace had already died. The remaining one had escorted the last of Western Wasteland Palace's elites to the Purple Sun Palace. However, the forces of the Purple Sun Palace and the human race had all retreated from Western Wasteland after this battle.
