Lu Ping's return made the entire Zhen Ling Sect overjoyed. With Zhen Ling Sect's tacit approval, the news of Lu Ping and Yang Lan's battle in the North Ice Field for two days and two nights quickly spread throughout the cultivation world. In the end, Yang Lan was forced to use his True Spirit Energy with all his might. In the end, he triggered Tian Fa and escaped into the North Ice Field's grand array formation.
Now that escaping into the passageway formation meant death, it meant that Lu Ping had used his Pure Yang Energy to force Laozu, who had achieved Celestial Force, to die!
For a time, the entire cultivation world was once again stirred up by Lu Tianping. However, the majority of people were skeptical.
The various powers in the cultivation world were originally dissatisfied with Zhenling's forceful intervention in the division of the Spirit Mine in Shang Shan with the support of the Tianxuan Sect and Wuxing School. However, they chose to remain silent, as if they were observing something.
Indeed, not long after, news came from the southwest. The Pure Yang adept of the Tianyue Sect, Full Moon Laozu, and the Pure Yang adept of the Spirit Beast Sect, Feng Lu, were secretly tracking the remaining Nine Mystical Tower cultivators. When they received news that Yang Lan Laozu's Soul Lamp had been extinguished, they immediately launched a sneak attack.
Of the four remaining Nine Mystical Tower Heads, only Wei Zhen, whose cultivation was almost completely destroyed, managed to escape. More than ten Dharma adepts were either killed or injured, and more than ten Core Forging adepts scattered like birds and beasts. In the end, only one in ten survived.
After this battle, the Nine Mystical Tower could be said to have completely lost its legacy!
At this time, everyone finally reacted. It turned out that Yang Lan Laozu had really died. Otherwise, Full Moon Laozu and Feng Lu would not have brazenly attacked the remaining Nine Mystical Tower members. Regarding this matter, there was no need for Lu Tianping and Zhenling to lie.
The division of the Spirit Mine in Shang Shan was soon settled. Not only did Zhenling obtain the rights to the Spirit Mine in Shang Shan, but under the goodwill of the Ziyang Palace at the last moment, Zhenling's share of the mine was much more than expected.
Previously, the cultivation world viewed the rise of Zhenling as a nouveau riche and did not think highly of him. but after the battle between Lu Ping and Yang Lan Laozu in the Northern Ice Fields, the cultivation world had to admit that Zhenling had already begun to lay the foundation of a holy land in the future!
After the Nine Mystical Tower's legacy was completely destroyed, the original territory of the Nine Mystical Tower and the cultivation resources left behind were finally divided up by the Heavenly Moon Sect, Skyrend, Skyward Pavilion, Lingyun Valley, and other sects. The middle and lower reaches of the Qingming River in the cultivation world of the Middle Earth once again restored the balance of power.
After the destruction of the Yuwen clan and the division of the giant Spirit Stone Mine in Shang Shan, the Ziyang Palace, Tianxuan Sect, Flowing Cloud Pavilion, Wuxing School, and Zhenling's other sects also came to an end.
Three years later, the Tianxuan Sect, the Flowing Cloud Pavilion, the Heavenly Moon Sect, and the Zhen Ling Sect joined forces to launch a war against the Tianxuan Sect. However, as the Tianxuan Sect's biggest supporter, the Five Elements Sect, strangely remained silent.
After the Disaster of Mara, the Taixuan Sect was repeatedly attacked by the Tianxuan Sect and Zhenling. The Great Divines of the Taixuan Sect died one after another. They knew that the Taixuan Sect was only surviving with the support of Wuxing School.
Now that Zhen Ling Sect, Tianxuan Sect, and other extremely large sects had joined forces, it was clear that they had reached some kind of tacit understanding with the Five Elements Sect in private. Under the joint suppression of these four large sects, the abandoned Tianxuan Sect was soon completely removed from the world of cultivation.
After the destruction of the Taixuan Sect, the entire cultivation world seemed to have fallen into a strange peace. Occasionally, some underground altars that had yet to be discovered would go out of control, resulting in a small-scale Devil Luo Calamity, but they were soon annihilated by the joint forces of humans and demons.
In the whole cultivation world, there were very few conflicts between the Human and Demon Clans, as well as between the major sects. Even if there were occasional conflicts, both sides would try their best to restrain themselves and control the scale of the conflicts within the scope that the Great Divines of Pure Yang and above could control.
In the whole cultivation world, almost all the Great Divines who knew the inside story were waiting for the arrival of the 500-year promise made by the Longhuai Ancestor. This promise was related to the fundamental belief of the whole cultivation world.
Was the Seventh Patriarch a saint or a thief?
Was there an infinite starry world outside this world?
Could the idea of immortality and immortality really be realized?
Now, there were only 350 years left until the promise!
Now, another 30 years had passed. Guo Tianshan, Laozu, and Liu Tianyuan, master and disciple, had passed the second Thunder Trial and successfully entered the late Dharma stage. After that, under the orders of the sect, Liu Tianyuan began to take charge of Zhenling's crusade against the Houtu Sect in the west.
Liu Tianyuan also knew that this battle was actually a trial for him by the sect. It was the best way to Zhenling's next leader. Although he had the support of people like Lu Ping and Yin Tianchu, he still needed to establish a certain level of prestige within the sect.
Zhenling did not have a single second generation adept participating in this battle. Lu Ping and Yin Tianchu were both training in seclusion. The Dharma adepts that Liu Tianyuan could gather were only some of Zhenling's third generation adepts and all of the fourth generation adepts who had already formed their Dharma Laws.
The Dharma adepts that participated in the battle against the Houtu Sect included the late Dharma adept Liu Tianyuan, the mid Dharma adepts Tianru, Tianshang, Tianyong, Tianjian, and Tianyu. Among them, Zhong Jian and Ma Yu could combine their swords and their strength was enough to take on a great adept without losing. The early Dharma adepts included Tianmeng, Tianxuan, Tianpeng, Tianhuan, Tianqi, Tianluo, Tianran, Tianheng, and Tiandeng. Among them, the five after Tianqi were all fourth generation Dharma adepts of Zhenling and were true disciples. Other than Tianqi and Tianluo, who were disciples of Lu Ping, Tianran was a disciple of Liu Tianyuan, Tianheng was a disciple of Tianyong, and Tiandeng was a disciple of Zhang Xuancheng, who had been the leader of Zhenling Side Hall for many years.
Other than that, Liu Tianyuan had also gathered more than 20 third generation disciples in the late Core Forging stage, 50 fourth generation disciples in the Core Forging stage, and more than 100 fifth generation disciples in the Blood Condensation stage to participate in this battle.
Liu Tianyuan had crossed the Hebei training world and traveled west for 20 years. During this time, he had also fought with various forces in Central Plains. Although Zhenling's side had suffered many casualties, Liu Tianyuan had ultimately withstood the pressure from the various forces and expanded his territory for 3,000 miles to the west, wiping out all of the Houtu Sect's forces.
After this battle, Zhenling's sphere of influence in Central Plains became more and more stable, and Liu Tianyuan had also completely established his position as the successor of the Houtu Sect in Zhenling.
Twenty years later, Liu Tianyuan, who had been in charge of the Houtu Sect for hundreds of years, was the main driving force behind the rise of Zhenling from an unknown medium-sized sect in the North Sea to a large sect, and was even the main planner who had laid the foundation for Zhenling to become a holy land in the future. Zhenling's first Houtu Sect leader, Liu Tianyuan, announced his retirement. The position of Houtu Sect leader was taken over by the third generation cultivator, Liu Tianyuan.
After Liu Tianyuan took over as the Houtu Sect leader of Zhenling, the strength of the Houtu Sect grew steadily. Zhenling's influence in the training world continued to expand. Whether it was in the North Sea, Central Plains, or the East Sea, its sphere of influence was further consolidated. At the same time, Ji Tianxuan had survived his second lightning tribulation and became the fourth late Dharma adept in the third generation of Zhenling.
Another 30 years passed, and the North Sea training world once again experienced a pure Yang lightning tribulation. Zhenling's third generation cultivator, Yin Tianchu, who had always been known as the "Demon Sword", successfully condensed a pure Yang Dharma Power and became Zhenling's second pure Yang adept after Lu Ping.
