At the entrance of the Stormy Ocean of the Heavenly Moon Sect's sea region, the confrontation with the Crystal Palace's treasured ship caused the alliance of the five sects to become closer.
When Xiao Baiyu proposed the plan to wipe out the Crystal Palace's forces in the central sea region, Lu Ping also asked for Jiang Tianlin's opinion. However, Jiang Tianlin did not hesitate like Lu Ping and readily agreed to this request.
Lu Ping also asked for the reason, and Jiang Tianlin's explanation was very simple. Zhenling could not be trapped in the North Sea and not make any progress. However, if it really wanted to leave the North Sea, it would inevitably disrupt the original power structure, and it was only a matter of time before it made enemies with others.
Since it was inevitable to offend people, why would they go and provoke others? They might as well offend the people they already had enmity with even more.
In the process of Zhenling's rise, it had encountered the Crystal Palace's obstruction, whether overt or covert. The two sides had already formed enmity. Even if Zhenling did not provoke the Crystal Palace, the Crystal Palace would not allow Zhenling to dominate the North Sea. The Fei Ling Sect four thousand years ago was a good example.
Now, it was just making this enmity deeper. Moreover, Zhenling was not fighting alone. This choice allowed Zhenling to gain four powerful allies outside of the North Sea, so why not?
Back then, Lu Ping could also hear Zhenling's ambition from Jiang Tianlin's words. However, this ambition was exactly what Lu Ping was happy to see.
On the central square of Tianxuan City, the huge teleportation array had already reached the final stage. After Zhenling's array master and Tianxuan Sect's array master worked together to incorporate the teleportation array into Tianxuan City's defense system, Zhenling's ultra-long distance large-scale teleportation array was finally successfully set up. This also meant that the last link on the surface for Zhenling to become a large sect had been completed.
This large-scale teleportation array was connected to the North Sea's Tianling Mountain and could teleport twenty people at once. On the teleportation array, there were four hundred and four indentations for spirit stones. The four indentations on the four sides were separated from the four indentations in the center.
In other words, each activation of the teleportation array required 400 high-grade spirit stones or four top-grade spirit stones. The cost wasn't low, but Lu Ping recalled the small teleportation array that led directly to Ying Shan Side Courtyard. Not only could it only teleport one person at a time, but it also required a top-grade spirit stone to activate.
Even after Spiritual Master Xuan Chen modified the teleportation array, it could only teleport two or three people at a time. Compared to that, the teleportation array could only teleport one person at a time, and each activation required one high quality spirit stone.
Not long after the ultra-long distance teleportation array was successfully set up, the entire teleportation array suddenly flashed with a dazzling white light. This was a sign that the teleportation array had been activated.
At this time, the cultivators from Tianxuan Sect who came to watch the show realized that there were many high level cultivators from Tianxuan Sect. Qing Li Laozu, Lian Nan Laozu, Wu Liu Laozu, and others who were rarely seen gathered in front of the teleportation array. It seemed like they were waiting for someone.
Finally, after the light flashed, Zhenling's group of twenty people appeared on the teleportation array in Tianxuan City under the lead of Sect Master Liu Tianling.
Qing Li Laozu suddenly laughed and said, "Welcome, Sect Master Zhenling, Tianxuan Sect has failed to welcome you!"
It was only then that the cultivators of Tianxuan City who came to watch the show realized that this graceful middle-aged woman was actually the Sect Leader of Zhen Ling Sect, the famous North Sea Water Sword Immortal, Lu Tianping's Master.
Lu Ping hurriedly introduced everyone from Tianxuan Sect to his master. Liu Tianling smiled and said, "Thank you seniors for waiting, Junior Liu Tianling has been impolite!"
Qing Li Laozu said, "Sect Master Liu is too polite. Now that our two sects have formed an alliance, we should be close to each other. Sect Master is too polite!"
Liu Tianling also smiled and said, "Then I am too polite!"
Qing Li Laozu laughed and said, "Sect Master Liu, please!"
"Senior, please!"
The Profound Sky Sect clearly attached great importance to the visit of Zhen Ling Sect's sect master. Aside from a few great cultivators who personally went to the teleportation array to welcome him, when Liu Tianling arrived at the dojo of the Profound Sky Sect, Old Ancestor Seven Fans was already waiting outside the dojo. No matter how magnanimous Liu Tianling was, he still felt somewhat flattered.
After the leaders of the two sects had a secret discussion, Zhenling officially announced to the cultivation world that he had become a large sect.
Lu Ping originally thought that this was the end of the sect's business. The remaining matters might be complicated, but he didn't need to worry about them. Just as he was thinking about where to bring Chi Lianying to have fun, Liu Tianling unexpectedly told him to accompany her to visit Tianxuan Sect. Only then did Lu Ping know that Zhenling was going to set up two super long distance teleportation arrays in the Middle Earth, and the other one was in Chanjuan City of Tianxuan Sect.
There were one small matter and two big matters to attend to in this trip to the Heavenly Moon Sect. The small matter concerned the marriage between Liu Tianyuan and the third generation direct disciple of the Heavenly Moon Sect, Chan Xiang. Behind this matter was naturally the maintenance of the alliance between the two sects. Liu Tianling personally went to propose, which also showed the respect and importance that the Zhen Ling Sect placed on the Heavenly Moon Sect.
However, Lu Ping was secretly ridiculing him. He knew that although this Senior Liu seemed to be an honest person, in reality, not only was he in love with Senior Chan Xiang from the Heavenly Moon Sect, he also seemed to be exchanging flirtatious glances with Senior Chan Yue. Moreover, what made Lu Ping even more amazed was that these two senior sisters seemed to have taken a liking to his Senior Liu at the same time. Moreover, from the beginning to the end, these two sisters had never gotten into any romantic disputes because they liked the same person. Lu Ping couldn't help but fiercely ridicule behind his back. Could it be that they wanted to kill two birds with one stone?
Unfortunately, only one of the two could become Liu Tianyuan's Dao Companion. Tianxuan Sect definitely wouldn't give their two direct disciples to one person as Dao Companions, and Zhenling also couldn't disregard the dignity of Tianxuan Sect.
However, he didn't know how his Senior Liu would choose. Could it be that he was really going to take one away and leave the other heartbroken?
Secretly, Lu Ping was already extremely jealous. Now that he saw Senior Liu frowning all day long, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. Who asked you to be fickle? This time, you've gone too far!
However, he didn't realize that he also had a Black Fox at home, yet he brought Chi Lianying everywhere to play outside. Compared to his Senior Liu, he was probably even worse.
The second important matter was that the leaders of the five sects would take this opportunity to hold an alliance meeting in Tianxuan Sect. They would announce to the cultivation world that the five sects had successfully formed an alliance. They would rise or fall together. In reality, it was an alliance to attack and defend against the Crystal Palace.
The third matter was to discuss the distribution of the various cultivation resources on the treasured island discovered in Tianxuan Sect's sea region.
After knowing the third matter, Lu Ping already knew why his teacher had asked him to accompany him to Tianxuan Sect. He wanted to bring him there to demonstrate!
Although the five sects were equal, in reality, they still had to be ranked. In terms of time, Zhenling was the last to be established and had the weakest foundation. Naturally, it should be ranked last among the sects without a sect.
However, in terms of the number of Dharma adepts and high level battle power, Zhenling was completely above Xiao Yao Pavilion. Even when compared to Tianxuan Sect, they were almost on par. As for Skyrend, if it wasn't for Xiao Baiyu, with Zhenling's current strength, even Skyrend would be inferior to it.
However, Zhenling looked at the other four sects in this way. In reality, when the other four sects looked at Zhenling, they were also at a loss!
If it was only based on the cultivation of the various sects' high level cultivators, Zhenling's current strength was above Xiao Yao Pavilion, and it was ranked fourth among the five sects.
However, Zhenling had produced Lu Tianping, a freak who was even more monstrous than Xiao Baiyu!
Before the conclusion of Yan Jiuxiao's death had yet to be determined, this guy had already crossed the Ocean of Storms with his physical body. Just when the cultivation world was exclaiming in shock that the Northern Sea Water Sword Immortal was about to become a Pure Yang cultivator, this guy had actually single-handedly defeated a Heavenly Devil in the sea region of the Heavenly Profound Sect, and he himself was completely unharmed!
This was not something that a quasi-pure Yang cultivator could do. This was simply a genuine Pure Yang cultivator!
Thinking back to the time when Eighth Sister Zhu of the Nine Profound Tower had narrowly escaped death to assassinate a Heavenly Demon, even though Eighth Sister Zhu had not only faced a Heavenly Demon, she had used assassination, and not a face-to-face battle like Lu Ping. Moreover, after successfully assassinating the Heavenly Demon, Eighth Sister Zhu had also been heavily injured, and even when the Nine Profound Tower announced that they were sealing off the mountain, her condition did not improve.
With Lu Ping around, how would the status of the five sects be determined?
The astute Liu Tianling was naturally aware of this, so she had strictly ordered Lu Ping to follow her to the Heavenly Moon Sect this time, in order to clear Zhenling's name.
This kind of matter was related to the status of the sects, and it might even affect the distribution of resources on the island. Naturally, Lu Ping would not refuse, and could only helplessly let Chi Lianying wait in Tianxuan City for a period of time.
In reality, after the Heavenly Moon Sect's Alliance Meeting, the people in charge of the five sects did not give in to each other regarding the allocation of cultivation resources on the island. Although they had formed an alliance, this did not mean that they would easily give up on their own benefits.
Lu Ping had participated in the entire negotiation process from beginning to end. Even though he was dizzy from all the arguments and was confused by all kinds of sharp words, he had no choice but to force himself to be entangled with the crafty old foxes of the various sects.
In the end, the various sects finally reached an agreement. The Heavenly Profound Sect was the sect with the most profound strength and resources among the five sects, and the island was within the sea region under their jurisdiction. They could roughly get about a quarter of the entire island's cultivation resources, but the Heavenly Profound Sect also had to fulfill the responsibility of providing the main protection for the entire island.
As the discoverer of the island, Zhenling drove away the Heavenly Demon entrenched on the island, preventing the loss of the large Spirit Stone Vein on the island. However, he also paid the price of not a small number of cultivators from the sect. Furthermore, he generously reported the situation of the island to the other sects, so each sect more or less owed him. In addition, Zhenling had displayed a strength that made people wholeheartedly submit to him, and in the end, he was able to get a quarter of the island's cultivation resources.
Originally, Liu Tianling even took the initiative to propose to share the defense of the island with the Heavenly Profound Sect, but it was rejected by Qing Li Laozu without even thinking.
What a joke, the Crystal Palace had tried every possible way to send their strength deep into the Middle Earth, but to no avail. Zhenling was able to so easily send his strength deep into the Heavenly Profound Sect's sea region, and he still had to carry the good reputation of risking his life for his allies?
The good things in the world could not be completely monopolized by the Zhenling family.
