"Oh, it's Lu Xiaoyou!"
The Longhuai Ancestor smiled upon hearing that. The True Spirit Adepts beside him who were initially on guard relaxed and began to look at the formation space that had been opened up.
"Lu Daoyou and the others are really capable. They actually broke through six formation spaces in one go. Impressive!"
Qi Fan Laozu exclaimed in shock as he looked at the space that had been broken through in front of him.
It was not just Qi Fan Laozu, even the heavily injured Tiger Tribe Leader and Guangyuan Laozu had expressions of disbelief on their faces. On the other hand, it was impossible to see the expression of the butterfly fairy from the Insect Tribe who had covered her face with a light veil. It was as if she did not care about the strength that Lu Ping and the others had revealed.
Lu Ping shook his head with a rather ashamed expression and said, "I'm ashamed to say this. This isn't entirely due to the three of us. If it weren't for the Tenma people sacrificing their lives to delay the siege of the two true demons, Fellow Mi and I would probably have died under the siege of the true demons. In the end, we wouldn't have met with Senior Chu Fanyun. On the other hand, after two of the formation spaces had been broken through, only the shattered Natal Spirit Treasures of Fellow Yao Xian and Fellow Gao Lingfeng were left behind. It seems that the two of you have already died."
The Tenma people and Lu Taiping had a feud of killing his son. Would the Tenma people risk their lives to stop the siege of the true demons for him? Everyone could not help but look at each other when they heard that. If anyone believed Lu Ping's words, it would really be the biggest joke in the world!
However, what Lu Ping said was true, and Mi Xuance had also spoken up to prove it. At this time, everyone was in an unknown danger, so naturally, no one would argue with Lu Ping on this matter. Even the Tiger Tribe Leader who was very close to the Tenma people only snorted coldly and said no more.
Guangyuan Laozu sighed and said, "The Tenma people, Fellow Yao Xian, and Fellow Gao, three True Spirit Adepts have died in one go. If it weren't for Senior Longhuai Ancestor's help, we most likely wouldn't have been able to escape the siege of the true demons. Even so, in the six formation spaces that we opened up, Fellow Linghu of the Skyward Pavilion was killed by the true demons. Fellow Tiger and I were also heavily injured by the true demons."
As the top existences in this world, they could be said to be invincible in the eyes of the living beings in this world. They were worshipped and revered by everyone. However, in this strange passage formation, four of them had died so easily in such a short period of time. For a moment, they could not help but sigh.
"Hmph, since the opening of the sky until now, who knows how many True Spirit Adepts have entered this passage formation and never been heard from again. Among them, there were many who were as powerful as us, and even more talented than us. If they couldn't succeed, what's the price we paid? If Fellow Guangyuan can't even see through this, in my opinion, Your Excellency should just return to Wuxing School and spend the rest of your life. At least you can still enjoy the incense offerings of your ancestors for a few hundred years!"
The Tiger Tribe Leader's continuous rebuttals did not make Guangyuan Laozu feel embarrassed. On the contrary, Guangyuan Laozu laughed and said, "It's the Old Man's sentimentality that has destroyed everyone's morale. Fellow Tiger is right, it's the Old Man who is being unreasonable. Since we've stepped into this passage formation, there's no turning back. We'll either live or die!"
After saying that, Guangyuan Laozu actually bowed to the Tiger Tribe Leader. The Tiger Tribe Leader accepted it calmly and slightly bowed back.
Lu Ping could feel the strong will to die from the duo. The path array formation was filled with unfathomable dangers. Clearly, the mastermind had left behind more than just this. With the duo's current state, they might even lose their lives in the upcoming crisis.
At this time, it was unrealistic for the two to walk through the passage formation to pursue the road to immortality. What supported them to go on was to see the person behind the scene who set up this sky-opening scam. As long as they persisted in living, they would be one step closer to the mystery of this scam. Even if they had to die, they wanted to know the truth.
"Lu Xiaoyou must have cultivated the first realm of the True Spirit Realm to perfection now. You must have condensed your natal water?"
Patriarch Long Huai asked with a smile on his face. However, his tone was filled with certainty. Based on the scenes during the process of opening up the formation spaces, the number of true demons within each formation space should be similar to the strength of the cultivators that entered the space.
To be able to deal with two true demons with his own strength, his cultivation must at least have reached the late stage of the first realm of the True Spirit Realm.
If Lu Ping and the other two were able to pass through the formation space and kill all the true demons inside, then his cultivation should at least be in the first realm of the True Spirit Realm to perfection.
Thinking of this, Patriarch Long Huai glanced at Chu Fanyun thoughtfully, thinking that if Chu Fanyun had brought one of the Emerald Sea Spirit Serpent Clan's supreme treasures with him, he would have been able to raise his cultivation base to perfection of the first realm. However, this was not his own strength after all, so it was still debatable whether he would be able to fully control his skyrocketing cultivation base. Presumably, facing two true demons, he would only be able to suppress them at best.
Being seen through by Longhuai Ancestor, Lu Ping was not surprised or panicked. Although he did not reveal his cultivation, he knew that once he made a move, it would inevitably be seen through by Longhuai Ancestor and others who knew the cultivation realm after reaching the True Spirit Realm. In fact, he did not deliberately hide his cultivation realm. If it was said that Longhuai Ancestor was only suspicious before, now he was certain.
Lu Ping smiled faintly. "How could I dare to compare with you, senior? When you were born five hundred years ago, you had already cultivated the Wood Realm to perfection. In the battle of Mount Shang, you ignored the Heavenly Punishment Realm. Now that five hundred years have passed, senior's cultivation must have improved. I am merely following in senior's footsteps. I am still far from it."
Mi Xuance, Guangyuan Laozu, and Qi Fan Laozu clearly did not know about the cultivation path after reaching the True Spirit Realm. When they heard the conversation between Longhuai Ancestor and Lu Ping, they were confused. The Tiger Clan Leader and Chu Fanyun, on the other hand, looked uncertain. They clearly knew about this, but not in detail. On the other hand, after hearing Longhuai Ancestor's words, the Butterfly Fairy's body moved slightly and she looked in Lu Ping's direction. Clearly, she was also someone who knew.
The moment the Butterfly Fairy turned around, Lu Ping sensed an obscure aura wrap around his body. With a thought from Lu Ping, the obscure aura was immediately dispersed. The front of the Butterfly Fairy's clothes fluttered even though there was no wind. Then, silence returned.
Lu Ping was slightly surprised. Through the brief exchange just now, he could clearly sense from the obscure aura that this Butterfly Fairy was also someone who had cultivated the first True Spirit Realm to perfection.
Lu Ping could not help but take a few more glances at the Butterfly Fairy. Although he could not see the mysterious Butterfly Fairy's face clearly, Lu Ping could still sense that the Butterfly Fairy had been observing him.
Although the exchange of Divine Thoughts between Lu Ping and the Butterfly Fairy was obscure, it did not escape the perception of the Longhuai Ancestor. However, the Longhuai Ancestor did not point it out. Obviously, he wanted to find out the true foundation of the two through the exchange, so he smiled and said, "The Old Man only has this cultivation because he has received the legacy of the predecessors. He has lived a little longer and accumulated a little more, but he cannot be compared to Lu Xiaoyou. It has only been a little over two hundred years since you became a True Spirit. Surpassing the Old Man is just around the corner."
The Butterfly Fairy obviously also saw the intention of the Longhuai Ancestor. The confrontation between the two suddenly stopped. Lu Ping said modestly, "Senior is overpraising me. This junior wants to go further, but there is no way. If I cannot break through this channel array, I will not be able to find a way to further my cultivation in the infinite starry sky before my lifespan ends. Everything I have done now will be in vain."
"Lu Xiaoyou is right. We will work together to break through the remaining array space. I hope that more fellow daoists can persist under the siege of the true demons."
After Lu Ping and the others met with the Longhuai Ancestor, they exchanged greetings. In fact, they were taking a break after the continuous battle with the true demons, taking the opportunity to restore the consumed qi in their bodies.
Perhaps this channel array was really because this world was connected to the infinite starry sky. The energy inside was extremely rich, and it was different from the Heaven and Earth energy in this world. This starry sky energy was more suitable for these True Spirit Cultivators to absorb and cultivate.
After taking a breather, Lu Ping and the Longhuai Ancestor and the other eight True Spirit Cultivators continued to destroy the altar and the adjacent array space, searching for the surviving True Spirit Cultivators.
When everyone found Xiang Laozu and the Wise Old Ape, the two of them had just joined hands to kill the three True Demons. Xiang Laozu was safe and sound, but the Wise Old Ape's strength was weaker by a level, and he had suffered heavy injuries. Only then did everyone know that the Peacock King had fallen under the siege of the True Demons.
Lu Ping looked at Xiang Laozu. This Ba Gui Laozu had also cultivated the first True Spirit Realm to the Great Perfection Realm. Perhaps it was because the Tenma people had died in his hands, but the Ba Gui race and the Peacock royalty had always been at odds. Lu Ping had always felt that the fall of the Peacock King was inseparable from this Xiang Laozu.
When everyone joined hands to break through the last barrier of the array, they were surprised to find that Xiao Baiyu and Green Sword Laozu, the two old enemies, were actually working together to resist the combined attacks of the Five Suppressing Demons.
Almost everyone in this world knew about the grudge between Skyrend and the Purple Sun Palace. After several generations of accumulated grudges, the cultivators of the two sects would always fight to the death when they met.
At this time, everyone saw that in the moment of life and death, the two sects' sects' Laozu had actually chosen to join hands to fight against the enemy. How could this not cause everyone to be surprised and sigh, to the point that they even forgot to help out. Only when Green Sword Laozu cursed anxiously did everyone come to their senses and completely kill the five True Demons.
The moment they entered the passage array from the ice wall, the eighteen True Spirit Cultivator s were teleported into a different array space. Then, a True Demon with the strength of a True Spirit Cultivator came to kill them through the altar.
After killing all the True Demons and breaking the eighteen array spaces and altars, only twelve of the eighteen True Spirit Cultivator s that had entered the passage array remained. The Origin Wine Laozu of the Crystal Palace had also fallen under the siege of the True Demons.
Only now did everyone realize that these eighteen arrays were actually a huge ring-shaped space that was separated by an array barrier. Now that the array barrier had been broken, all that was left was a semicircular array barrier that was surrounded by the array space.
Through the barrier, Lu Ping could see the deep starry sky and the countless twinkling stars.
