The five Dharma adepts of Zhenling now had close to 20 pieces of the Sound Breaking Stone in their hands. If this news were to be leaked, it would probably cause a commotion in the world of the Dao Altar.
However, the number of Sound Breaking Stone in their hands was not important. What was important was that the adept could suppress the will of the Seventh Patriarch within the stone and obtain the mantra of the Seventh Patriarch within it.
For tens of thousands of years in the world of cultivation, it was not that there were no outstanding adepts who could suppress the will of the Seventh Patriarch within the Sound Breaking Stone with absolute power in the world of the Dao Altar. However, none of them had obtained the mantra of the Seventh Patriarch within it.
However, for someone like Lu Ping to be able to suppress the will of the Sound Breaking Stone with such ease and obtain the mantra of the Seventh Patriarch within it was not easy.
It was said that Xiao Baiyu had taken advantage of the opening of the Dao Altar between the Endless Mountain and the Western Wilderness Demon Clan to forcefully enter the world of the Dao Altar as a human adept. In the Dao Altar, he had obtained 12 pieces of Sound Breaking Stone in a row and suppressed the will within seven of them with his tyrannical power. In the end, he had completely erased the protective will within four of them. At that time, many demon adepts had already been shocked by this feat and no one dared to cause trouble for Xiao Baiyu in the Dao Altar anymore. Furthermore, Xiao Baiyu had also used this ability to subdue many demon adepts from the Endless Mountain. It was at that time that the younger brother of the Peacock King, Yang Shouchang, became the best friend of Xiao Baiyu.
One had to know that Xiao Baiyu was already a late Dharma adept at that time. He had just killed the Pure Yang Sword Celestial Lv Taiqing in the Zi Yang Palace and was at the peak of his fame. However, what was Lu Ping's current level of cultivation?
The mid Dharma stage!
Could it be that Lu Ping's current level of cultivation at the mid Dharma stage was already comparable to that of Xiao Baiyu, who was at the late Dharma stage? Didn't that mean that he now had the strength to kill a Pure Yang Cultivator?
At this time, the four Zhenling Dharma adepts watched as Lu Ping suppressed the protective will piece by piece, drawing out the Seventh Patriarch's mantra one by one for the others to comprehend. The few of them had long become numb to it.
What's more, as long as someone could perceive each of these mantras, it would take at least four to six hours to comprehend. If it took too long, it might take ten to ten hours or even a whole day to understand the mysteries of the Seventh Patriarch's mantra. They really didn't have the time to figure out to what extent Lu Ping's true strength had improved.
Lu Ping naturally knew that his own strength was not at such an unimaginable level yet. The reason why he could easily suppress and even erase the protective will in the rubble was not only because his own strength was comparable to that of a late Dharma adept, but also because of his Dharma Power of the Dragon, as well as the Triple Light Divine Water that he had just learned. He could use his own Ethereal Force to condense the True Qi into Triple Light Divine Water.
The former could easily suppress any protective will belonging to Laozu in the stone fragments, while the latter could completely erase any protective will belonging to Laozu.
However, after Lu Ping had consecutively erased the protective will in three of the stone fragments, Tiancheng Laozu suddenly thought of something and hurriedly stopped Lu Ping. He said, "Disciple Lu, can you erase the protective will in all of these stone fragments?"
Lu Ping was a little confused, but he still said, "I should be able to most of them!"
Of course, he would not say everything, but this was enough. Tiancheng Laozu looked at the three stone fragments that had their protective will erased and regretted it. He said, "Sigh, what a pity, what a pity. You just have to suppress the protective will in the next stone fragments and draw out the mantra. Don't erase the protective will in them yet."
"Why?" Before Lu Ping could ask, Sixth Brother Lei, who was beside him, asked, "Aren't we going to bring these stone fragments out? If we don't erase the protective will, how are we going to bring them out?"
Tiancheng Laozu pointed at Sixth Brother Lei and said bluntly, "Are you stupid? As long as we don't erase the protective will in these stone fragments, the mantra of the Seventh Patriarch can be kept. We can totally exchange the stone fragments with other sects and then listen to the mantra through Disciple Lu."
Tiancheng Laozu and Sixth Brother Lei got along well. Although they had not known each other for a long time, they had a good relationship and did not stand on ceremony when they joked with each other.
However, Tiancheng Laozu's idea made everyone's eyes light up. The mantra of the Seventh Patriarch in the stone fragments depended on luck for most cultivators. Not to mention the fact that it was impossible to erase the protective will, even if they could only suppress the protective will and draw out the contents of the mantra, those great cultivators could only do it from time to time. Moreover, most of the time, it did not work!
There were even many cultivators who found that they could not draw out the mantra of the Seventh Patriarch after obtaining a stone fragment, so they threw it back. Since they could not bring it out, what was the point of keeping it? If they forgot to put it in their storage artifact and the world of the dao altar suddenly opened again to summon everyone back, wouldn't their storage artifact explode?
This was also why the cultivators in the dao altar world would usually put the Chiming Crushed Stone in their pockets instead of putting it in their storage magic artefact.
Zhen Ling Sect had obtained nearly twenty pieces of Sound Shattering Stones from the Dao Altar World. Other sects like Heavenly Profound Sect and Heavenly Moon Sect who were on good terms with Zhen Ling Sect might not have as many as Zhen Ling Sect, but they would still be able to obtain seven or eight pieces. As long as Zhen Ling Sect could pick out an equal number of Sound Shattering Stones to exchange with these people, the other sects would naturally not let go of this opportunity.
Since it was all about luck, the more the better. The other sects naturally had no reason to refuse. However, what they did not know was that Zhenling had a freak like Lu Ping. In the eyes of others, it was a matter of luck, but for Zhenling, it became a matter of luck. In this way, didn't it mean that the five of them could always listen to the teachings of the Seventh Patriarch, and Zhenling could also obtain many of the contents of the mantra and their own insights?
With this thought in mind, everyone became excited. Even Lu Ping regretted not doing this earlier. There were only 40 to 50 days left before the altar's closing. Even if they didn't sleep or rest, it would still take them six to five hours to comprehend each mantra. How many mantras would they be able to comprehend in the future?
Moreover, although it was not difficult for Lu Ping to suppress the intent of the crushed stones, it was still a matter that consumed a lot of True Essence and Divine Sense. Moreover, Lu Ping still had to use some time to erase the protective intent of the crushed stones in order to smoothly bring these crushed stones out of the dao altar world.
By the time Lu Ping had guided the mantras contained in nearly 20 pieces of Musical Crushed Stones, half a month had already passed. Other than Lu Ping who could sense all the mantras that he guided out, the one who could sense the most mantras was actually Sixth Lei. This guy had obtained a total of 11 mantras, while Yin Tianchu had only sensed ten. Tian Cheng Laozu had obtained eight, and Liu Tianyuan had only obtained seven.
Even so, this was already a storm of mantras for the four of them!
Everyone spent three days to carefully organize the insights that they had obtained from the crushed stones. Then, they hurried back to the Profound Sky Sect and the Heavenly Moon Sect's encampment with more than 10 pieces of Musical Crushed Stones, preparing to exchange with the crushed stones that the two sects had obtained.
