Lu Ping was taken aback for a moment, but then he smiled and said, "Indeed, there were too many unexpected things just now, and I was distracted. Fortunately, we were in the encampment. If we were in the wild, we might have been ambushed successfully."
Lu Ping invited Yin Tianchu into the training room and said, "Junior, why are you looking for me?"
Yin Tianchu said, "If we work together, how confident are we of killing an Asura?"
Lu Ping did not expect Yin Tianchu to ask such a question. After a moment of silence, he said, "Junior, I have not seen you in action since you entered the mid Dharma stage. However, if you were to face an Asura at full strength, if you go all out, I think you should have at least a fifty percent chance of success."
Yin Tianchu nodded and said, "Then I would like to try out the War Credits List. I want to see how big the gap is between us and the other sects of the cultivation world!"
Lu Ping was overjoyed and said, "How about you and I work together?"
"That's exactly what I was thinking!"
On the second day after Zhenling's reinforcements arrived, the Zhenling practitioners were mobilized. The Dharma adepts of the third generation disciples were all out. At the same time, there were also Tian Cheng Laozu, Qin Yu, Qin Gang, Lei Laoliu, Lu Qin-er, Lu Hai, and others.
Among them were Li Tianru and Ji Tianxuan, led by Liu Tianyuan; Lu Qin-er and Lu Hai, led by Tian Feng; Laozu, led by Tian Cheng Laozu; Qin Yu and Qin Gang, led by Lei Laoliu; Qing Hu and Qing Lang, led by Qing Hu. They were divided into five groups, and each group did their best to assist the leader in killing Mara and snatching the war credits.
As for Lu Ping and Yin Tianchu, they had left the encampment at some point. No one knew where they had gone. Of course, Lin Yu Laozu might know, but he would not spread the news.
Originally, Zhenling had wanted to help Laozu of Tianshan ascend to the mid Dharma stage. Zhenling's original plan was to have Tian Cheng Laozu and Laozu support Laozu to ascend to the battle credits list.
However, after Lu Ping told Tian Cheng Laozu a piece of news yesterday, Tianshan and Tian Qin Laozu immediately changed their minds and wanted to support Laozu to ascend to the early Dharma stage.
The news that Lu Ping told Tian Cheng Laozu was simple: the Samling Five Elements Leaf was about to grow its seventh leaf in Lu Ping's hands. Once it was successful, Tian Cheng Laozu's core, which had already been severely damaged, would be able to recover, and Tian Cheng Laozu himself would once again have the hope of advancing to the mid Dharma stage.
It was because of this news that Tian Cheng Laozu thought that instead of supporting himself to ascend to the mid Dharma stage, it would be better to support Tian Cheng Laozu to ascend to the early Dharma stage.
Although there were more early Dharma adepts and the competition for the battle credits list was more intense, with the help of two mid Dharma adepts, it would be easier to obtain battle credits for early Dharma adepts. Furthermore, after Tian Cheng Laozu had lost all hope of advancing, he had put all his energy into training the supreme spell formation, "Inferno Heavens."
When Scarlet Mist Island had first appeared in the North Sea, Lu Ping had obtained a mid-Heaven-level "Earth Core Fire" from the island. This spirit fire could be divided into a low-Heaven-level mother fire, three mid-Earth-level second generation fires, and a high-Dark-level third generation fire.
A total of 13 spirit fires were interconnected and were the best treasures for training the supreme spell formation, "Inferno Heavens." After Tian Cheng Laozu had obtained this spirit fire and successfully trained this spell formation, he could be said to be one of the top early Dharma adepts. Even the current Liu Tianyuan might not be a match for Tian Cheng Laozu.
Although the Sky Mountain Elder had the Second Tribulation Spirit Treasure, the Mountain Splitting Axe, and was not considered weak among the mid Dharma adepts, one only needed to take a look at the people on the Mid Dharma battle credits leaderboard to know that this leaderboard was basically a competition between the top third generation disciples of the various sects.
It was not that Tian Cheng Laozu could not bring himself to compete with the third generation disciples, and there were indeed second generation adepts on the battle credits list. For example, Yu Ziqing from the Amulet Pavilion, who was previously ranked third, was also a second generation adept. It was simply because Tian Cheng Laozu did not have much confidence in himself.
In today's world of training, the second generation adepts who were still at the mid Dharma stage had mostly lost the qualification to advance to the late Dharma stage. Or perhaps they still had hope of advancing to the late Dharma stage, but they could only be considered as the most outstanding among the second generation adepts.
Compared to the top group of third generation adepts, although these people had the same level of training, and the second generation adepts had trained for a longer period of time, at the same time, it also meant that the third generation adepts were generally more talented than the second generation adepts and even the first generation adepts who were still stuck at the mid Dharma stage. Compared to them, the third generation adepts were undoubtedly the cream of the crop of their respective sects. They were more valued by their sects and were more likely to receive the full support of their sects. Their inherited spells were more powerful, and the treasures they possessed were of higher quality. At the same time, they could also increase the persuasiveness of the sects in terms of strength.
Furthermore, although the competition for the mid Dharma stage was not as intense as the early Dharma stage, the difference in points on the list was even more despairing. After all, most of the people who could make it onto the list were the third generation disciples of various famous sects in the world of training.
In contrast, at this time, Great Ancestor Tiancheng did not have this problem. At this time, the third-generation disciples who were stuck at the early Dharma stage could only be regarded as the second echelon among the third-generation disciples in terms of aptitude and strength. This echelon was actually the same as Great Ancestor Tianshan and the others, who could only become second-generation practitioners.
Tiancheng Laozu himself should have originally been in the second tier of talent and strength. It was only because of the damage to his core that he had been forced to stay at the early Dharma stage. Compared to these second generation disciples who were in the second tier, he did not have the slightest disadvantage at all. On the contrary, he had the extra hundreds of years of training time and the willing assistance of two mid Dharma adepts.
The possibility of Tiancheng Laozu being able to enter the early Dharma stage was far greater than that of Tianshan Laozu himself.
After everyone left, only Lin Yu Laozu, Xiang Lou Laozu, and Tianshan Laozu were left in Zhenling's base to hold the fort. Lin Yu Laozu was an outsider after all, and Xiang Lou Laozu was also an outer sect elder who did not participate in the sect's affairs. In this way, Tianshan Laozu had to stay in the base to deal with daily matters and deal with sudden incidents.
At this time, the battlefield closest to Zhenling's base was Ziyang Palace, which was guarding the exit of the valley in the northwest.
To the northwest of Jiuxuan Tower was a mountain range called the Zephyr Mountain Range. This mountain range could be seen as the dividing line between the northwest and central regions of Central Plains. In the middle of this mountain range, there was a gap in the valley that was several miles wide. This mountain pass was the only way to enter and exit the northwest from the central regions of Central Plains.
Now, Ziyang Palace's base was in the middle of this mountain pass, firmly blocking the only way to enter and exit the northwest from the central regions of Central Plains. On the cliffs on both sides of the mountain pass, Ziyang Palace had also set up two camps, one on the left and one on the right, to protect the base.
Thirty miles away from Ziyang Palace was an open area where Mara's army had gathered and dispersed. At this time, Mara's army had split into three groups to attack. Other than the most powerful central group attacking Ziyang Palace's base, the left and right flanks were attacking the two camps on the cliffs on both sides of the mountain pass.
Xie Tianyang was currently in the camp on the west side of the mountain pass. Looking at the Mara's army that was charging towards his camp like a tidal wave, Xie Tianyang used his finger to lightly tap the Blazing Sky Sun Sword in his hand. His eyes flashed with excitement as he muttered to himself, "Come on, if we can defeat this wave of attack, our battle points should be able to enter the top five!"
At this time, on the mid Dharma stage battle points rankings, Xie Tianyang's battle points had already reached 86 points, but he was still ranked seventh. However, he was only two points away from the Tianxuan Sect's first direct disciple, Cao Jianping, who was ranked sixth.
And in first place on the battle points rankings was still Lu Ping's unmoving 111 points. However, in second place, the second direct disciple of Ziyang Palace, Little Shang Sword Fan Mingjie's battle points had already risen to 105 points. He was only two Blood Shura away from Lu Ping.
Xie Tianyang laughed as he scolded, "This fellow is really patient. He still hasn't made a move. If he doesn't make a move soon, I'm afraid that Second Senior Brother will surpass him in first place. Even the top three will not be guaranteed."
Beside him, Su Jin laughed when he heard this. "A few days ago, you were hoping that Lu Daoyou wouldn't be in a hurry to make a move, but now you're worried about him, worried that someone else will surpass him. What exactly are you thinking?"
Xie Tianyang replied in a huff, "I just want to make the ranking list more competitive, so that everyone can compete with their true abilities. If the ranking list is given to us by others, what's the point?"
Su Jin nodded and said, "That's true!"
He opened the Imaging Stone in his hand and looked at it. Currently, Su Jin's points had reached 74 points, but his ranking had dropped from eleventh to twelfth. The Nine Mystical Tower's Wei Zhen, who was still ahead of Su Jin yesterday, had now fallen to thirteenth place behind Su Jin. Of the two cultivators who were newly ahead of Su Jin, the tenth was Wuxing School's Huo Wuliang, while the eleventh was Spirit Beast Sect's Empyrean Walker, Feng Qilang!
The battle cries of Mara's army were getting closer and closer. Finally, with a loud boom, they collided with the Protective Formation of Ziyang Palace's encampment. At the same time, the two camps on the cliffs on either side of the encampment were also attacked.
Looking at the frenzied attacks of Mara's army outside the encampment's protective shield, the Blazing Celestial Sun Sword slashed across Xie Tianyang's body. Streaks of flowing flames almost burned through the surrounding void.
"Let's get to work, let's get to work. This time, we must suppress both Cao Jianping and Yuwen Feixiang!"
Xie Tianyang pointed with his flying sword and was about to rush out of the encampment. He had just discovered a Blood Demon hiding among Mara's army and was only five hundred feet away from the encampment's protective shield.
Unexpectedly, before he could rush out, Su Jin cursed. When Xie Tianyang turned around in surprise, he saw Su Jin staring fixedly at the Psychic Jade Tablet in the center of the encampment. In an instant, the number one, North Sea Zhenling Lu Tianping's points had suddenly increased by fifteen points!
