Every step Lu Ping took seemed to be stepping on the nodes of everyone's heartbeats, causing their hearts to involuntarily beat along with Lu Ping's footsteps. Lu Ping's aura rose with every step he took.
A towering killing intent filled the room as Lu Ping entered. Lu Ping's gaze swept across the room, his sharp gaze like two sharp blades that wanted to pierce through everyone's hearts. Hong Ying's face paled and he involuntarily took a step back. Chu Ting and Li Xiuzhu's expressions turned solemn. Even Chi Lianying couldn't help but sit up straight and stare at Lu Ping.
"Did the two of you just say you wanted to challenge the trials?" Lu Ping's voice was as calm and heavy as ever, without the slightest killing intent.
Just as Li Xiuzhu was about to speak, Chu Ting suddenly thought of something and her expression changed. She pulled Li Xiuzhu back and said, "Brother Lu, the Pill Gathering has already started for five days. Tomorrow is the day when all the clans will compete in alchemy. However, Brother Lu is still in seclusion. Have you forgotten what you said?"
"I only promised your Li Clan to participate in the alchemy competition. Have you missed the right time?"
Lu Ping knew that Chu Ting wanted to gain a foothold in the Dao Gathering and destroy his own aura, but he didn't give her the chance to do so. He directly said, "Challenging the trials is like trying to stop someone from achieving the Dao. The two of you are deliberately trying to ruin my cultivation!"
Chu Ting snorted coldly and laughed, "Brother Lu thinks too highly of yourself. If it is because you are afraid, there is no need for you to participate in this Pill Gathering. You can just mention it directly. The Li clan is not a rude and unreasonable clan. Why must Brother Lu put on such a denouncing attitude? Don't tell me that we are afraid of Brother Lu?"
Chu Ting and Li Xiuzhu naturally knew what it meant to be a cultivator in closed-door cultivation. But Chu Ting still insisted on doing it. Other than the imminent Alchemy Gathering, the two of them still believed that Lu Ping was only a Blood Condensation Realm cultivator. With their current Core Forging Realm cultivation base and Chu Ting's expertise as an alchemy grandmaster, even if Lu Ping were to suffer from cultivation deviation due to the disturbance, the two of them would be able to save him unscathed.
As soon as Chu Ting's voice fell, a powerful pressure pressed down on Chu Ting. Although Lu Ping had not reached the Core Forging Realm, the strength of his Divine Sense was not any weaker than that of a Second Stage Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master.
Chu Ting was also an alchemist, so her Divine Sense cultivation was naturally not weak. In addition, she had already reached the Core Forging Realm, so her Divine Sense cultivation was comparable to that of a Second Stage Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master. When Lu Ping's Divine Sense pressure pressed down on her, she sneered in her heart. She secretly thought that Lu Ping was stupid. He had only cultivated this Divine Sense Transformation Technique for a few days, yet he dared to use it against her, who had also cultivated this technique and had already reached the Gold Core Realm.
However, Chu Ting's mocking expression immediately turned into one of shock. How was this possible?
The pressure from Lu Ping's Divine Sense was not inferior to hers. While she was stunned, Lu Ping launched a preemptive strike and firmly suppressed Chu Ting's Divine Sense.
After all, Chu Ting's cultivation was higher than Lu Ping's. Although her Divine Sense was suppressed by Lu Ping, she could still hold on. Lu Ping was also helpless in this situation.
He did not know that at this time, Chu Ting's heart was already in turmoil. She had only taught him the Divine Sense Transformation Technique for a few days, but this person had not only completely transformed his Divine Sense into Divine Sense, but also had a degree of familiarity with the control and grasp of Divine Sense that was not inferior to her, who had already reached the Gold Core Realm.
Back then, Chu Ting herself had spent nearly half a year cultivating this Divine Sense Transformation Technique, and during that period, she had to slow down her cultivation speed several times because of the inhuman pain caused by cultivating this secret technique. After successfully cultivating this secret technique, it had taken her nearly a year to be able to fully control and use the divine sense that she had generated.
The Divine Sense confrontation between the two had become more and more intense, but what was even more incredible was that Lu Ping actually had the upper hand in the confrontation.
A Divine Sense pressure suddenly interfered in the confrontation between the two Divine Sense. Although this new Divine Sense pressure was not as strong as Lu Ping's and Chu Ting's, the Divine Sense contained a sharp Qi, like a needle hidden in silk. It could not be underestimated.
Li Xiuzhu intended to separate the two fighting. Although her ability was not above Divine Sense, she was a determined person. After reaching the Gold Core Realm for a long time, her Divine Sense had also nurtured an unyielding sharpness. She was confident that if she caught them off guard, she should be able to break apart the Divine Sense of the two in one fell swoop.
Lu Ping naturally knew Li Xiuzhu's plan, but Li Xiuzhu's relationship with Chu Ting made it impossible for her to be impartial when attacking the Divine Sense of the two, let alone when Lu Ping had the upper hand.
Li Xiuzhu's Divine Sense rushed in, and the sharp Qi inside pointed straight at Lu Ping!
Lu Ping coldly snorted, and the Divine Sense suddenly changed. The wave-like attacks that rushed towards Chu Ting suddenly came to a halt. Chu Ting was overjoyed, and she hurriedly broke free from Lu Ping's suppression. However, Lu Ping's Divine Sense seemed to form a huge whirlpool above a vast ocean, as if it wanted to devour the entire world.
This was the Divine Sense concept that Lu Ping had comprehended under the influence of the Enchanting Thought Pill. Although Lu Ping could only display a small portion of it, Li Xiuzhu's Divine Sense was like a moth flying into a flame, and it broke free from her control.
Amidst the loud explosion between the Divine Senses, Li Xiuzhu's sharp Qi was devoured by Lu Ping's Divine Sense concept. Lu Ping's gaze coldly swept over the two people in front of him. Chu Ting's face was filled with fear, and her eyes were filled with disbelief. Li Xiuzhu's Divine Sense had been forcibly dispersed by Lu Ping, and at this moment, he had a splitting headache, and faint traces of blood could be seen between his nose and mouth.
Hong Ying's expression was filled with disbelief, but it was also mixed with an inexplicable excitement. Chi Lianying frowned, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Today, seeing that the two of you are impatient about the Pill Meeting, I will treat this as a lesson to the two of you. If there is a next time, the two of you will die together. Don't say that I didn't warn you!"
Lu Ping slowly finished speaking and turned to leave. Just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly thought of something and said, "Tomorrow, the Alchemy Competition of the various families will be held. I will go myself, so there is no need for you two to come. My cave residence does not welcome you two."
After Lu Ping left the reception room, Hong Ying apologetically smiled at the three people, and excitedly chased after Lu Ping. Only the three women remained in the room. Li Xiuzhu was as quiet as ever, and Chu Ting looked angry.
Chu Ting had been accepted as a disciple by the middle-aged beauty of the Listening Sound Small Building since she was a child. For more than a decade, Chu Ting had always been a proud daughter of heaven in the eyes of others. Whether it was her cultivation or alchemy skills, she was an unparalleled existence among cultivators of the same level. In addition, she was intelligent and resourceful. She helped her master take care of the "boudoir" in an orderly manner. No matter where she went, she would be respected and looked up to.
When had Chu Ting ever suffered such a big loss? Not only was she criticized in public, but she also lost to a cultivator whose cultivation was far lower than hers. Moreover, she was threatened with death by this person.
It took Chu Ting a long time to break free from the shadow of this defeat. Thinking about Lu Ping's words, Chu Ting was so angry that she laughed. She looked at Chi Lianying and said, "Good, good. There is actually someone who dares to threaten me like this. I want to see how he will kill me."
Chu Ting stood up and was about to chase after Lu Ping, but she felt something tighten behind her. Li Xiuzhu had unknowingly grabbed her clothes.
Chu Ting turned her head and said, "Junior Martial Sister Li, let go. Today, we must let this person know the true power of a Core Forging Enlightened Master. Don't think that you have the qualifications to challenge a Core Forging Enlightened Master just because you have cultivated the Divine Sense Transformation Technique. I want to let this person know that the gap between the Core Forging Realm and the Blood Condensation Realm cannot be filled with divine sense."
"If I were you, I wouldn't ask for trouble!"
"What?" Chu Ting stopped and looked at Chi Lianying.
She didn't know when, but Chi Lianying had returned to his lazy expression. He patted his cherry lips and walked out while yawning. Before he left, Chi Lianying looked back and said, "He can really do it. He can really do it."
Chu Ting stared blankly at Chi Lianying who was walking away. For a moment, she didn't know what to do. Her mind was blank. Only Chi Lianying's words before he left echoed in her mind, "He can really do it. He can really do it …"
